Quake Champions (611500)

[JR1994]

I am requesting that Quake Champions be added to the white list. I have verified that it works via Steam Play. My Steam system info is here.

I get horizontal axis lock while moving my mouse at low speeds in Quake Champions with Proton.

Upgrading to the latest version of DXVK also almost doubled my performance.

Crashes for me at the menu loading (after warning screen)

Did you played it actually? Afaik that game needs Stream Output which DXVK doesn't have.

IIRC reports were suggesting that it only uses the feature at higher settings, so that is why it may not be crashing for some. I can only get the game to work with DXVK on native Windows, and it didn't crash for me in that environment at least.

And if an app is not working properly on some settings due to a missing feature or similar , that should not be in the whitelist.

Because whitelist represents " tested , somewhat Steam Certified " apps , at least for now.

Agreed, just giving additional context.

I tried playing it but it crashed after sometimes with 2fps in the tutorial. Highest video settings on full HD.
Main menu works fine
OS: ubuntu 18.04.1
GPU: AMD RX 580
CPU: I5-4460
GPU driver: mesa 18.3.0
Game is installed on an NTFS hard drive. But other games don't have problems with it.

I have gone through the tutorial and so far I was able to play. I get some stuttering, but I think that is because I am using Intel graphics. I have a second laptop with NVIDIA that I am going to test on shortly.

I have +200 hours played, the game runs great. But since DXVK is not fully implemented yet, you will experience some crashes related to stream output: For more info see this.

The crashes happen 100% of the time on these 3 specific moments:
After loading the map "Lockbox"
After loading the map "Vale of pnath"
When the character/champion named "Sorlag" uses his ability: Acid spit.

And about performance, I recorded some videos.

UPDATE: I've recorded a new video, this time, using Steam for Linux.

The game works fine with ultimate settings with the exception to the Details Level in postprocessing it must be set to low otherwise i get crash after use a weapon.
I played tutorial and one multiplayer team death match.
Resolution:
2560x1440 at 60fps
ryzen 7 2700x
32GB ram
nvidia gtx 1070 Driver 396.51

using PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command% seems to greetly reduce stuttering on quake champions.

using PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command% seems to greetly reduce stuttering on quake champions.

I can't reproduce this.

Please make sure the shader cache is fully loaded. The game will stutter until you load every single map and model of the game into screen at least once. For this... You need to play the game for an hour or so maybe.

Need confirmation.

EDIT: Some videos without 1,2 and with 1, 2 esync .

[sigzegv]

I am not speaking about shader caching.
In tutorial's first room, with esync my mouse is not smooth and my framerate in unstable (and stutters from time to time) : 40 to 80 fps in that really simple room (I have not set any particular system conf for esync). And without esync, my mouse is really smooth, and my framerate is constant 90/110 fps.

I don't know why some people have no issues with esync, but I hope this can help anyone. (My system is archlinux, I have a gtx 1070, and in the game options Details and Post Processing are set to low to avoid crashed).

Ok, I tried playing it again with graphics on LOW and PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command% in the launch option. First I did the tutorial which worked ok, it had some stutters because it needs to load the shaders. Then I queued for an online match where I just crashed to desktop in the loading screen, tried to rejoin but didn't work. Maybe something with the map?
I restarted and tried again which worked, played a full instagib deathmatch game with only some stutters at the start. (I won so it worked great)
