    Can you recommend a good one? I have a game that wont run on proton and my only answer is to dual boot

      which game is that? have you tried proton GE? if it’s anticheat stuff, your best choice is to dual boot unfortunately. if it isn’t resource intensive, i guess you could try GPU passthrough in a VM and see if it works. you need two GPUs for that tho…

        It’s DCS and it seems to be issues with shaders specifically, I have not tried GE, I will give it a try

            tried that too, I get an invalid magic number error for protontricks, tried the fixes in here github.com/Matoking/protontricks/issues/304

            I tried to install d3dcompiler_47 on another game in another drive and got the same error, I can’t seem to add dlls through protontricks
