Well, we don't have a Proton/Wine thread yet.

I just went to do a new build of my proton-tkg and noticed that Valve Bleeding Edge is now Wine 9.0 based!

I got as far as building the vr_client and it bombed out on inapplicable patches. I looked at the source file and see they aren't needed anymore so I commented them out in the scripts, but I still don't know if that's going to build. I might have to do some gymnastics to skip it altogether (I don't have a VR headset and have no plans to). The wine builds completed, the proton media converter completed, but there's vr_client, nvapi (which I also don't care about) and the dxvk and vkd3d-proton builds but those will be fine (I just upgraded those on my system last night).

I hope I can get this sorted, I'm eager to try it. I'd rather ping the guy with solutions if I report it.

P.S. It also looks like proton_9.0 is stable now. I can't open Steam right now (it'll break my game configurations because my configured proton tool is missing) so I can't check to see if it's being pushed out yet.

P.P.S. Yep, removing the vr_client patches was all that was needed. No other gotchas further down.

When the Ubisoft client updates, it works, but it is re-launched by the updater and seems to launch out of context. It prompts for an Ubisoft login and if you give it, it opens up the full Ubisoft client.

Instead, if a login prompt comes up, just kill it (click the x will suffice) and wait until it dies out and the Steam button says Play again.

Launch the game again normally, the updated client will load, there is no login and your game will launch. It's supposed to be just tied to your Steam account.

Yeah that's what I've been doing for quite a while now when that happens.

I just played Serious Sam Fusion for a few mins, I hadn't played it since 2019, and I got an achievement:

Kill an enemy with a gib torn from another enemy. 11% of players have this achievement

I'm sure I've done that before in the separate games. Seems like there would have been more players having done that in this one for something so simple.

Sometimes when you suddenly get a stupid achievement, it's because they've added new ones to the game since you last played it. When they do that, it throws off the stats too, like "3% of players have this achievement". Yeah, because it's a 5 year old game that nobody is playing, that you just added achievements to lol

I tried Serious Sam Fusion for a bit tonight. The native Vulkan one, that's been beta since 2017 lol

The last time I tried that was about a year ago, I'd not tested it on the new box yet. It worked OK, I turned off vsync and set the framerate limit to 120 FPS (Vsync isn't really useful if my display is 165 Hz) to get it a bit smoother.

That's only good for about 20 minutes for me nowadays anyway though, do some sledge hammering, cycle through the guns and that's about it. I did play my favourite level though, the Museum level and that maze of Cairo alleyways after.
