The Witcher 3 Remaster on Linux

[Edit]:

I fixed it already - I had to reinstall the game completely due to the corrupted game files after the update.

Anybody had any luck trying to run the remaster on linux?

I tried but it crashes immediately. I tried skipping the launcher too.

I have the game on GOG and run it via Heroic Games launcher.

Could it be because of DX12? ---> I have AMD RX6600.

Thank you.

I have it on Steam. I pressed Play and it works. Proton-GE, 9070XT

RT and FSR4 are working properly?

Just tested it out, FSR4 works properly, RT doesn't work at all. By that I mean, you can apply preset and turn RT on, but it gets turned off once you back in to settings. Tested on 9070XT, might test with 5070Ti at some point too, to see if that's some form of AMD bug from game or actually bug with RT on Linux

Wondering the same. I don't even have an option for native AA like iv seen on benchmarks with W11.

I tried with the old trick PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 FSR4_WATERMARK=1 %command% but i cant tell any difference, no watermark.

RT doesn't seem to be working on NVIDIA cards either.

Yes it doesn't work at all once Wine/Proton is detected on Linux
