# Ready or Not - Working Baseline Configuration
|
|
|
|
## ✅ Confirmed Working Setup
|
|
|
|
### Successful Configuration (Baseline)
|
|
- **Proton Version**: Proton 9.25 (or latest experimental)
|
|
- **Launch Mode**: Safe mode (no mods)
|
|
- **Launch Options**: Basic (testing DX11 next)
|
|
- **Game State**: Successfully loaded mission
|
|
- **Date Tested**: 2025-08-13
|
|
|
|
### Key Findings
|
|
1. **Game reinstall was necessary** - Previous installations may have had corrupted files
|
|
2. **Proton 9.25 works** - Newer versions are actually better for this game
|
|
3. **Safe mode bypasses mod conflicts** - Important for initial testing
|
|
4. **Anti-cheat handling** - Game ran without explicit `-noeac` in working test
|
|
|
|
## Next Test: DX11 Configuration
|
|
|
|
### DX11 Test Setup
|
|
- **Proton Version**: Keep Proton 9.25
|
|
- **Launch Options**: `%command% -dx11`
|
|
- **Expected**: Should work since baseline works
|
|
|
|
### If DX11 Test Succeeds
|
|
|
|
We can then move to STL with these working parameters:
|
|
- Base Proton: Proton 9.25 equivalent (likely GE-Proton10-11)
|
|
- Game Arguments: `-dx11` (and add `-noeac` if needed)
|
|
- Graphics: Start with DXVK (not WineD3D since newer Proton works)
|
|
- Features: Can enable GameScope, DLSS, etc. gradually
|
|
|
|
### If DX11 Test Fails
|
|
|
|
We know the baseline works, so we can:
|
|
- Use basic Proton 9.25 without DX11 override
|
|
- Still move to STL but avoid DirectX version forcing
|
|
- Focus on performance optimizations instead
|
|
|
|
## STL Configuration Strategy
|
|
|
|
Once we confirm DX11 status, create STL config based on:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
# Working baseline settings
|
|
USEPROTON="GE-Proton10-11" # Equivalent to Proton 9.25
|
|
GAMEARGS="-dx11" # If DX11 test succeeds
|
|
USEGAMEMODERUN="1" # Performance
|
|
USEGAMESCOPE="1" # 1440p gaming
|
|
DXVK_ASYNC="1" # Since newer Proton works
|
|
PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI="1" # NVIDIA features
|
|
USEDLSS="1" # RTX 4080 SUPER optimization
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Lessons Learned
|
|
|
|
1. **Game reinstall solved fundamental issues**
|
|
2. **Newer Proton versions work better than expected**
|
|
3. **Start simple and build up complexity**
|
|
4. **Safe mode is important for initial testing**
|
|
5. **Previous configurations may have been interfering** |
