Just a small status update

Hi everyone, 

As you may have seen there hasn't been a major update in a few weeks. There is reasoning behind this, and I just wanted to provide that information to you all to keep you informed:

1) Currently upstream -still- does not have esync or fsync rebased/re-enabled. We are really awaiting this before we can move on past 5.9 for a new stable release.

2) I do have some pending controller fixes for Fall Guys, however I am awaiting fixes for Horizon Zero Dawn to be ...

--HOTFIX-- 7/8/2020 11:42 PM MST:

-Added another alt+tab focus fix patch, confirmed working in KDE.

-Disabled the SAO: Fatal Bullet patch, as it was found to cause issues with EAC games. Causes SAO: Fatal Bullet to hang on start, but is incorrect. Allows Paladins and Squad to correctly contact EAC cloudflare servers (there are additional EAC issues still, but Paladins no longer crashes). See: h...

Proton-5.9-GE-2-MF

--HOTFIX-- 

---------------------

6/10/2020 7:17 PM MST:

After reviewing the issue tracker  again for Sea of Thieves I found via ga2mer's comments that it becomes working/playable after login if the prefix is set to Win7. I tested this and it did indeed allow me to login and get past the previous journal issue/became playable. I've added a hotfix in protonfixes that should do this automagically. Updated Proton-5.9-GE-2-MF.tar.gz again.

Debating removing FS (Fullscreen) Hack from proton builds

Hi all. This is something I've been debating for a long while. There are quite a few key reasons I'd like to remove the fullscreen hack from future proton builds, which I will list below:

1. It requires multiple git commit reverts in a revert list that grows because winex11 changes are not maintained or rebased by Valve's proton. This eventually result in games breaking, or games which are fixed by these changes requiring fshack to be disabled (MK11, Injustice 2).

2. It requires ...

Proton-5.9-GE-1-NR

Hi all. This pre-release has yet more media foundation work added. I'm tagging it as a pre-release because I've had to disable some things in order for  a few new games to work.

-Fullscreen hack was found to be the cause of Mortal Kombat 11 not working. This also requires a few other patches to be disabled such as some additional vulkan patches and raw input, as well as the Sekiro patch. Fullscreen hack used to work with this game, so this is just a temporary disable unt...

Proton-5.8-GE-2 Released

This is an update to 5.8-GE-1 in regards to media foundation work:

-Super Lucky's Tale -- Fixed an issue with bink videos not playing in GE builds which work in proton

Proton-5.8-GE-1-MF released

Hi All, So originally I was going to do a double release -- one with the media foundation work, and one without, however with much of the media foundation work already upstreamed, I'm not able to do that without reverting a large amount of the commits. On the bright side, a lot of the media foundation work that has been done and is  currently in alpha testing, is getting to a good working state. 

Many of the media foundation games don't work to begin with in the fir...

Proton-GE-5.6-2

-This is a hotfix that reverts the fullscreen hack changes, as  they introduced a regression with mouse stutter on movement after a  period of time. What this means:
-Fullscreen hack is still enabled, it's just using proton's version, not customized for staging
-Staging's winex11.drv-mouse-coorrds and rawinput patchsets have been disabled
-Proton's rawinput patchset has been re-enabled.

Normally I'd wait to release smaller changes like this, but the  ...

Proton-5.6-GE-1

This is a pre-release continuation of the media foundation work done by Guy1524 (Derek) along with some additional fixes.

Wine + Wine-staging:

-Update to 5.6 release

mfplat:

-Add partial WMV playback support (Should allow RE2 and RE3 movies to play)

-Add gst-plugins-ugly and wmv playback patch to build

protonfixes:

-Add dxgi=n override for Darksiders Warmastered Edition, game seems to crash with wine's dxgi when using ...

Proton-5.5-GE-1

So I'd like to preface that  ***this is a pre-release*** that has a massive amount of media foundation/mfplat wine patches. A huge thank you goes to Derek Lesho (Guy1524: https://github.com/Guy1524/wine) as well as Nikolay Sivov and Sergio Gómez Del Real all from CodeWeavers for getting this stuff working and taking the time to help me get it working with the correct dependencies in proton.

A side post about giving proper credit where it's due.

Hi all,

As many of you may or may not already know, there is a credits section in the README of my git repository. My proton-ge project contains some of my personal tweaks to proton, but also very largely contains patches, rebases, and fixes from numerous people, not just myself. While I tend to get credit for my builds, there is a lot of work that goes into it from other people as well, that gets imported. I'd like to take some time to point a few of these people out for recognition. &...

Proton-5.4-GE-3

Proton-5.1-GE-2

This is mainly a hotfix + feature release build.

Hotfix:

-Fixed warframe requiring a controller to be plugged in. That's right, you no longer need xboxdrv! I spent the weekend debugging it and was finally able to come up with a bit of a hacky workaround, but it works for now until valve addresses the issue (it has to do with the way lsteamclient handles controllers)

Feature:

-vkd3d branch is latest from codeweavers + DXIL changes by Hans Kristian (who has been doing a ...

Proton-5.1-GE-1

Proton-4.21-GE-1 MCC-2, Server migration, Fedora mesa-aco automated builds, Fedora kernel with fsync, Quorrabot update

Hi all, it's been a SUPER crazy busy month. I've been a busy bee. That being said I'll cut straight to the points:

Proton-4.21-GE-1 MCC-2
-------------------------------
I'm pretty sure most of you already know about my Halo: Master Chief Collection test build that I posted in the Valve proton github issue. It's basically 4.21-GE-1, with a small fix in the proton script, and a patch from Guy1524 that enabless MCC to run without EAC. It has some caveats currently:

-Multiplaye...

Proton-4.21-GE-1 Released

Changes:

-patch for launching origin + origin games inside steam added: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/pull/3239 (note, this still requires registry modification and esync off to work properly: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/3224#issuecomment-560129737)

-commit rever...

Proton-4.20-GE-1 Released

This build is a bit of a replacement for the previous builds which have now been removed. I've had some hit or miss troubles getting this build to a stable point that I wanted it, but all the standard games that worked before without mfplat should work fine. This should serve as a solid base moving forward. 

The mf_install verb in protonfixes has been altered. I have removed the mf plat related files and registry entries which are not publicly available directly from Mic...

Proton-4.19-GE-1 Released

 This is a short list, but contains some big fixes. :)
