@imrazor I saw a few people in here got skyrim working. So I tried the Non SE version. I haven’t tried the special edition though.
@VanillaWaferX Actually I had far better luck with “Oldrim” (which is DX10) than I did with Skyrim SE. Vulkan seems to be broken on that particular laptop, so that means no DXVK/DX11 for me.
OK, so I found out why Fallout New Vegas did not work for me. I think it has something to do with the latest update. All of my previously installed Proton games do not work anymore. It was not just New Vegas. My only solution to get the game running again is by re-installing it from steam. Which allowed me to create a new Proton/ Wine/ DXVK/ whatever profile.
Now, I have a question. Does anybody know if there is a way to reset all my compatibility profiles in Steam? It would be a pain to have to re-download every game I got up and running through proton.

No wonder why the DLLs for DXVK were 50MB and 70MB respectively.
On Fedora 28, default AMD Drivers. R9 FuryX, i74790K,Asusz97 Deluxe,32GB Ram, 2TB SSD.
- Alien Versus Predator Classic 2000. It launches. It runs. I can change the Screen Resolution to 1080p, that runs. I have a video recording.
I did see a few issues.
ALT Tabbing from the game over to the Vokoscreen recorder and back to the game. There was a constant rolling left bias to the mouse control, i.e. if I left the mouse stationary, the character would look left and up.
Also I managed to get one instance of totally black screen after changing resolution. killing the game and restarting it - everything worked again.
Overall I could live with it. I just made all my games available, installed it, and it launched and ran.

Ashes of the Singularity Escalation. Installs, Launches, the Stardock menu launches. Trying to use settings file fails. Launch in Safe Mode fails. After a while the Stardock menu turns into small section of the steam menu. Bizzare.
Totally broken. -
Sniper Elite 4. I get a message saying I do not have the correct video card for the direct 11 Driver - I have a video of that.

3D Mark Firestrike. Starts to launch. Immediately shuts down. If I force 64 bit I get as far as the 3d mark launch screen. It stays there.

Crysis 2 maximum edition - testing next.
That’s something valve is going to have to work on. Perhaps putting an option in a similar position to verifying game cache. Per title of course.

Retested Crash Bandicoot N. Sane Trilogy with the fixed DXVK and the problem remains that a newer upstream Wine version has threaded workflow fixes that 3.7 doesn’t have. Once Proton is rebased with a newer upstream Wine, the performance should be more consistent in this game.

Where are these files located?
Yeah, there definitely needs to be some sort of refresh or install/ uninstall for Proton installs.

delete the appid folder from steamapps/compatdata and it should reset the proton portion of a game. This will include any user made tweaks

Thanks, found it!
I just use SteamDB to find the game ID for each title: https://steamdb.info/apps/

could you test if that works. I don’t want to reinstall my games again, some are huge in size.

Yup. I just deleted the compatdata file for Doom 2016 (APPID: 379720) and relaunched the game, and it works again.
You might want to put this information in the OP.

Windows games are still installed in steamapps/common and the wine prefix is just in steamapps/compatdata/APPID/. no reinstall would ever be necessary unless your dealing with a very weird bug.

Can also just enable the URL in the steam client and just visit the store page

Right, that’s even easier. Thanks for the tip.

Crysis 2 maximum edition - runs great on Ultra 1080p.
I am not surprised as Crysis runs on WINE for years.
Can’t set ultra textures.
Need to know good way to control GPU Fan and power limit …
The card is currently running at default settings.
Should perform much better if I could set correct power and fan curve.
Will look at that later.

So I made progress with Skyrim SE. I had to enable “experimental” support for amdgpu in my kernel options and add an entry for amdgpu in xorg.conf.d. But now I have Vulkan support, and can at least start the game. At first I just had music and no voices. However I applied “winetricks xact” trick again and I got audio…for a while. However, after several minutes audio craps out again and characters stop talking to my avatar altogether. Their lips don’t move, there’s no subtitle text and whatever script is running them halts where it is. It’s very weird, and disappointing. The framerate is much better with DXVK than it is with Oldrim and the DX10 support baked into Wine.
On the plus side, Oldrim runs a little better with the amdgpu driver. No audio problems there. I can live with Oldrim despite the drastically lower framerate if I can get a mod manager to run.

Here’s another 2D platformer that works surprisingly well. It runs at a steady 60fps on my system for the most part. The framerate only dips when the game is trying to auto save between levels. But the actual game runs fine and works with a game controller.
