This is a hotfix release due to last minute regression reports

WARNING: These were built on Archlinux against glibc 2.31.

If your distribution ships with older glibc you might run into issues such as nothing actually runs. In such case you'll have to use the build script on your machine to compile against your local environment:

More universal builds will be made available in the future.

Previous releases can be found here: https://github.com/Tk-Glitch/PKGBUILDS/releases

Building on a non-pacman distro will require that you resolve wine building dependencies on your own. More on this in here

About the attached releases:

  • Wine-tkg 5.5.r0.g18f71258 pacman package: install on your pacman distro by running sudo pacman -U wine-tkg-staging-fsync-vkd3d-git-5.5.r0.g18f71258-257-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst in the dir you have downloaded the package to. Generated source can be found here

  • Proton-tkg 5.5.r0.g18f71258 standalone package: Uncompress to ~/.steam/root/compatibilitytools.d on most distros or ~/.steam/compatibilitytools.d on Debian/Ubuntu or other Debian based distros. If the directory doesn't exist, simply create it. Generated source can be found here

Proton wine builds (-tkg, -GE, official or others) are not suited for use outside of Steam, even if the option is provided by some third party tools. Doing so can break the whole way they are designed to work and thus is NOT recommended.

  • FAudio libs aren't included, so better have them installed on your system 🐸
  • You'll need the usual dependencies for Wine, so installing Wine on your system is recommended even if only for that.
  • Comes with the latest devel version of DXVK - https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/commits/master
  • VKD3D support is enabled. Simply install VKD3D(git) libs to make use of them for D3D12 games. Make sure you're using a recent build and not the 1.1 point release that's a year old as this won't work.
  • LAA is enabled by default. It fixes a huge amount of crashes on 32-bit games when using DXVK. However a small number of (older) games might run into issues with it, so you can disable LAA by using PROTON_DISABLE_LARGE_ADDRESS_AWARE=1 %command% in your game's launch options.
  • Proton build has winetricks integration. It requires you to have the tk package (python3-tk on Debian based distros) installed and can be turned off/on in the ~/.steam/(root)/compatibilitytools.d/proton_tkg_5.5.r0.g18f71258.hotfix/user_settings.py file.

You'll find wine-tkg and wine-tkg-interactive scripts in the bin folder. You can use them to enforce correct paths on non-Arch distros if you encounter issues running the wine binary directly.
