Steam Deck - GE Proton 8.7 / 8.8 / 8.9 Updates

Over the week, a slew of updates came in for GloriousEggroll's GE Proton, with versions 8.7, 8.8, and 8.9 being released. The biggest mention is that FSR is finally back! Other changes help improve stability and performance.


GE Proton 8.7

  • FSR IS BACK!!!

  • Additionally, a bug was fixed by Ph42oN with fullscreen not working properly when fsr is disabled, which was present in proton 7

  • protonfix for Oceanhorn was removed as it's no longer needed

  • protonfixes added for Neptunia Re;Birth 1 & 2

  • proton-wine updated to latest git

  • dxvk updated to latest git

  • vkd3d-proton updated to latest git

  • dxvk-nvapi updated to latest git

  • upstream build changes pulled in

GE Proton 8.8

  • This is a minor hotfix release that just syncs proton-wine and dxvk with upstream versions from today. A user complained they saw some odd CPU+GPU usage in 8-7, but it was fine in today's proton-experimental. After testing with this build based on today's experimental, they confirmed it was working here too.

GE Proton 8.9

-Hotfix: Apparently, yesterdays build was missing the normal proton-packaged Gecko and Mono (the file size was significantly smaller than usual). This build fixes that.
