You can try out the Proton-Cachyos with frame gen package if you’re on arch-based systems with pacman -U archive.cachyos.org/proton/proton-cachyos-1:9.0.20240928-1-x86_64_v3.pkg.tar.zst

or you can download custom tkg-proton with frame generation from mediafire.com/file/lv7d8jci0gyf6z0/proton_dlssfg.tar.zst/file and put into your ~/.steam/steam/compatibilitytools.d/

this is so games can render at half the framerate, but the fps counter doesn’t show it right? Yay? I guess…

It’s actually really nice given the fps without framegen is playable.

I found it to have a positive impact for heavy titles that run around 40fps without it.

Anything below 30 gives this weird stutter

Biggest news for linux gaming in a while

The Steam Deck sort-of has it on some games already, but it’s a bit hacky. I did get 60fps Cyberpunk going though, which was a nice surprise. It’ll be great to get a proper unified way of doing frame-gen though.

Pardon my ignorance, I had thought dlss already worked on Linux, I’ve used it on baldur’s gate somewhat recently

What difference is there between this and regular dlss?

this adds the dlss 3 frame generation. dlss 2 indeed has worked on linux before, as well as dlss ray reconstruction.

Ahhh I see. Has been a while since I’ve played a game that wasn’t Minecraft so haven’t really been paying attention

I’ve tried dlss frame gen on the finals and it seems to be working fine. Though at first I thought the audio crackling was because of fg, but it seems to be happening on all versions of proton.

Audio crackling is also an intermittent thing on windows for me since the latest season. Not sure if it’s the same of course but maybe it’s not solely on proton.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
