GloriousEggroll has officially released GE-Proton10-13, a significant update aimed at enhancing the gaming experience on Steam through Proton. This version specifically resolves video playback issues in several popular titles, including Resident Evil 7, Resident Evil 8, Sky: Children of the Light, and Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed.
To improve functionality further, two new environment variable options have been introduced:
1. PROTON_MEDIA_USE_GST=1: This option directs Proton to utilize the winegstreamer backend instead of the previously favored winedmo backend. This change can be particularly beneficial for games whose video playback was effective in Proton 9 but faced challenges in Proton 10.
2. PROTON_GST_VIDEO_ORIENTATION: This variable allows users to adjust video orientation with various settings such as vertical-flip, horizontal-flip, rotate-180, and automatic. This feature is particularly useful for correcting upside-down videos in certain games. Notably, setting this variable will automatically enable the use of the winegstreamer backend, as manual orientation adjustments are not compatible with the winedmo backend.
In addition to the video playback improvements, the update includes protonfixes aimed at restoring audio functionality in One Piece Pirate Warriors, as well as addressing multiplayer issues in the 40k Dawn of War Definitive Edition. These fixes also extend to the GOG version of the game.
Further enhancements in this release include updates to the wine-wayland em-10 patches, the latest bleeding-edge version of wine, and the most recent updates to both dxvk and vkd3d-proton. Additionally, various upstream Proton fixes have been integrated into this release.
In summary, GE-Proton10-13 is a comprehensive update that not only enhances video playback in key titles but also addresses critical audio and multiplayer issues, ensuring a smoother gaming experience for users. The introduction of new environment variable options provides gamers with more control over how videos are presented in their favorite games, while ongoing updates to underlying technologies promise continued improvements in performance and compatibility
