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:

# 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
