Game Is Boring Yet Playable

2 years ago

Tinker Steps:Switch to experimental

Instability:Occasionally

Get the infamous Unreal crash unless the game runs in Proton Experimental.

You need to run the game using Proton Experimental, otherwise it will crash when opening the first door. Once switched, I didn't notice any other problems.

Seems to run great

Medium setting holds a comfortable 40 fps. Could probably max settings at 30 fps or with FSR/TSR/XESS at higher frame rate.

The game demo (you can expect the same behaviour from the complete game) works flawlessy once switched to experimental proton.

Tinker Steps:Switch to experimental

Battery Performance:Made Changes To Improve

Lowered resolution to 1152x720 + FSR to achieve stable 40 fps at medium quality graphic

Tinker Steps:Launcher: bottles, Custom Proton: Lutris-GE-Proton7.43, Set launch options

VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr11 VKD3D_FEATURE_LEVEL=12_2 %command%

Performance:Slight Performance Problems

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.
