Like a lot of new games very blurry because of TAA or FSR only to choose. A little helpful is Gamescope with upscale to 1440p.
Occasional crashes from on the host.

If the vkd3d-proton DLL issues are fixed, the game can be enjoyed without any workarounds.

Sometimes small black squares appear on the screen, but they are not distracting.
Out of the box, it doesn't work with an AMD GPU.
Following @SuperParobrod guide:
Download the ZIP file from here: https://github.com/HansKristian-Work/vkd3d-proton/actions/runs/13587216195 (vkd3d-proton-merge-c54afb39ef5164945d2a4881d6edfd41604cc836)
Then, copy the two DLL files from the x64 folder inside the ZIP file to the game's directory: ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/RoadCraft Demo/root/bin/pc/
Without these DLLs, the game crashes immediately after the map loads.

This is applicable for the demo, not sure if it will be required for the full release
Download the zip, and copy files from the x64 directory within the zip to ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/RoadCraft Demo/root/bin/pc/

Wheel controls are trash, but this is also true on Windows, using a Fanatec CSL DD, in game tweaks to controls required, no way to switch to reverse gear, you have to use the brake pedal to reverse, using mouse to change camera stops the wheel from working, and using the wheel stops the mouse from working
game runs at a much lower framerate than expected, with my specs (visible on the right), i run the game at 50-60fps on high settings
Note: To download the files, you need to be logged into GitHub
Played through the first mission. Flawless out of the box.

Crashes at when loading complete
Starts but couldn't get into the game, crashes at loading screen when it says completed

Following @SuperParobrod guide, I downloaded the updated proton dll files and extracted them into ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/RoadCraft Demo/root/bin/pc/
.
I was not able to get more than 10-12 FPS. My hardware is not good nor recent, but changing any of the settings didn't improve the performance, I could increase or decrease texture quality, FSR quality, resolution scale, etc, and nothing affected the performance.

Wheel controls are plain awful (hold brake to go reverse)
on high settings 50-60fps
On AMD GPUs, the fix i mention needs to be applied, otherwise the game crashes your system upon loading the map
There was some desync issues a couple of times throughout the hour we played, but it did not affect gameplay at those times
Nie działa na kartach graficznych AMD
Po zainstalowaniu i uruchomieniu gry ani normalnie ani na gamescope nie mozna rozpoczac rozgrywki. Kiedy rozpocznę rozgrywke gra crashuje sterowniki karty graficznej.
Full crash of GPU driver and SwayWM

Использовал Proton Experimental, Proton Hotfix, Proton 9.0-4. во всех случаях загрузка мира заканчивается вылетом игры.
Можно полазить по меню, не более.
gamemoderun
Only getting around 35-40FPS, with frequent dips to 15 on Medium settings. Going to Low does not change anything
Surprisingly demanding, or not optimized. It is playable, changing any video settings does absolutely nothing - even changing the render resolution to "ultra performance" yield 0 extra FPS, and looks like 144p Minecraft.
GPU is GTX 1080ti

Game crashes after loading map.
Tried hotfix and experimental no luck.
I have tried multiple ideals. Nothing is getting it to work and keeps on crashing.

The game starts and I'm able to start a new game but after load the map, the whole pc freezes.
Based in other reports it looks like the problem is with the AMD's GPUs

Unplayable on AMD
When trying to load into a level, the game causes a GPU crash.
(note: report is for the demo)
Tried with amdvlk as well as radv, also tried windowed mode and exclusive fullscreen and various other display options
VK_ICD_FILENAMES=~/AMDVLK/amd_icd64.json %command%
crashes on loading screen after a 'click' sound, I guess it's right as the loading screen is about to disappear

The Demo Won't Load the Map
It crashes after saying Loading complete.

Crashes gnome shell on AMD card
As all others report, it crashes the gnome shell on an AMD card, tried with DLSS disabled, different proton versions, proton-ge versions and changing other game options and nothing worked.
Crashes gpu
Hammer, demo: download - installiert - gespielt - laeuft!

Tried to use proton experimental, but it didn't change anything

Could be thats how the game is currently, but runs 50-70 fps only ,1440p high, DLSS quality. lowering settings doesnt seem to really bring any fps improvements
Performance isn't great, but it works and is stable. Its just ta Demo atm. https://youtu.be/-TTYlOaRMKI

Doesn't work on AMD gpus, crashes the desktop environment after loading the map.
Seems to work on NVIDIA gpus based off other reports.
Crashes my window manager(s). Hyperland and i3
Hyprland crashes

Game starts but when loading into a new game it crashes on loading screen
Crashes at loading screen in game when you try to start a new game. Due to a having an AMD GPU.

Crashes gpu driver after it finishes loading any map
from other reports, it seems to work with nVidia GPUs, but not AMD

Breaks at the end of loading
It seems to finish loading, game loads I can distinguish a trucl but the whol image is rendered with freaky colors and then everything freezes
System crash to nothing but black screens (in power save)
Proton 9.0-4 and Hotfix
Can't load into the game at all. 9.0-4 was smoother on loading the menus. Hotfix was a bit rougher. Neither got past the crash that happens on loading the game. Makes my computer completely unusable and I have to hard reset it. Just the demo version of course. Hope they can get it fixed.

Crashes gnome-shell
Loading into a map crashes gnome shell and kicks me out to the lock screen. Have to reboot completely to be able to try and launch again. Tried with Proton 9.0.4, Experimental and Hotfix

Seems game is not working on AMD cards,
Possible driver issue

Tried demo. Didn't work.

AMD GPU's don't work. May be an AMD Problem
crashes after the menu when going into the game. I have found out it is only with AMD GPU's.
Nvidia GPU's work

Game freezes in loading screen
When I try to actually play the game it gets stuck in the loading screen and crashes, I researched a bit and found that it's probably an error for those with amdgpu

Despite reports of the demo not working, it started right up, no issues so far. Proton version selected ULWGL-Proton-8.0-5-3
