It is only tinkering in the game's graphics menu that causes headaches to trying to get this game to run smoothly.
VKD3D_FEATURE_LEVEL=12_1,12_2 VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr11,dxr12 PROTON_CONFIG=dxr11,dxr12 PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=0 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command% -dx12
Game is graphic intensive, best to turn down graphics to high first before slowly brining everything up to ultra. Using a 3080 card.
Do not turn Raytracing Shadows on, its a mess. Turn off Motion Blur, any light affects, and turn the quality of image to Performance if you want 60FPS stable and more.
Do not overclock your card. Pushing more power is okay, but overclocking the memory and core clocks cause crashes always.
using GE-Proton9-7, I see that I am locked to Unlimited Frams, fullscreen, and can only change quality of image from balanced to performance. Best to leave image to performance and keep other quality settings to medium or high for stable 60FPS with no crashes or artifacts.
Take some time to tinker the graphics in the game, to get a good gameplay and performance. Once done, it is a worthwhile game.
Played this on 4K TV using HDMI and wireless Xbox controller with dongle. No issues of audio output
This game is definitely great to play. With my system, I am able to play this on my 4K TV, and play with an Xbox wireless controller with no issues.
Using Glorious Eggroll builds, this runs like it is out of the box. No tweaking on command lines.
When connected, it runs like butter. However, Respawn servers are down(last time I checked). Will have to use Northstar mod in order to play online.
This is a great game to play single player. Multiplayer online has not been an issue (when I get connected). Will test out using Northstar mod for online multiplayer, but read from others that it works like a charm.
This ran perfectly with no issues. Probably can run it on regular Proton 9.0 but I trust GE Proton more with all its fixes.
One minor thing that happens. You will have to log into a Ubisoft account, let it start up a few times, and you will get some message about needing to register its product key. Go to steam and click on stop immediately, and then click Play again, and you are set to play Valiant Hearts.
