While it started in borderless, I switched to Fullscreen and turned on VSync, using 144Hz
After many many attempts, game finally loaded fine. I turned on VSync and fullscreen and disabled the Ubisoft overlay... that's all I did. I also used FSync as Syncronization option in Bottles.
Less FPS in Linux compared to Windows but it's fully playable and game runs smooth.
-dx12 %command%
As of 2024-03-25 I noticed that turning off Resizable Bar in BIOS gives this game a performance boost for some reason, this is with DX12 mode and RT On. It might not do the same for you, but give it a try.
PROTON_DISABLE_NVAPI=1 %command%
Slightly lower FPS in Linux.
Updated report - As of 2024-06-12, the game seems to have issues with NVAPI so be sure to disable NVAPI if you are using Nvidia. It makes the game much smoother and it also makes FSR3 framegen work so the experience is very good.
Note: DLAA, DLSS and Reflex won't be available with NVAPI disabled.
Also do not run the game with mangohud FPS limit and VSync off, it seems to cause stutter. So keep VSync on in game and don't touch mangohud.
I think the curren't performance issues brings the experience down, especially the stutterinmg.
It runs but the performance isn't very good. About 30 FPS less than Windows but what really makes it run bad are all the microstuttering, even if the FPS is decent the game feels like you're running in 60hz with no vsync.
If FSR3 framegen is turned on, the game locks up. I don't know how it seems to work (?) for some people with similar hardware. I've tried proton 8, proton experimental and proton-ge. They all lock up with FSR3 framegen on.
VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr11 VKD3D_FEATURE_LEVEL=12_2 %command%
Some stuttering, probably due to shader compilation or RTX.
Not sure if the commandline options are needed, I put them there to be sure I could use RTX. Note: I played the demo of Layers of Fear, not the final game.
PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=0 DXVK_ENABLE_NVAPI=0
NVIDIA DLSS not available
If you are using an Nvidia GPU be sure to disable NVAPI. Otherwise the game will crash.
