Cyberpunk 2077 (GOG) does open but is in a very very small window, that can't be increased in size

I currently try to get gog cyberpunk 2077 up and running with hgl with nvidea 3080 mobile gpu. Cyberpunk starts but it is in a very small window that i can barely see it on screen the music plays but i couldn't find any solution to it on how to increase my window size without navigating to the settings in cyberpunk, which i cant reach at that window size. Is this a problem anyone knows a fix for? I am running ArchLinux with KDE plasma (Wayland) and have my nvidea drivers up to date.

Is there a folder i can copy them from in the launcher or do i need to find them in the game directory?

"launcherArgs": "VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr11,dxr RADV_PERFTEST=rt %command% " That's not how those work
quickest-silver

disable DXVKNVAPI, but leave DXVK on
CommandMC

"useSteamRuntime": true, That also isn't the best idea Aaaand you won't need PRIME here either

This log is basically ProtonDB

Do i have to put smth into game arguments?
fair-rose

Also dxr is an alias now that also enables 1.1 too
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
nah
fair-rose
fair-rose2y ago
No It should just work with disabling prime, unticking steam runtime
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
if it doesn't, post a new log

Removing the launcher args here might also be necessary Not sure if CDPR's launcher is smart enough to just ignore those
fair-rose
fair-rose2y ago
VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr11,dxr RADV_PERFTEST=rt %command%
Remove those, ye %command% , clearly copy pasted from protondb 🐸
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Y'know, part of me wishes ProtonDB just wouldn't accept reports on non-Steam games
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
i don't even know what %command% does
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
I did try a few things but i dont know what to do 🙂
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
They kind of already do (by not listing games not available on Steam at all), but then also don't (by allowing reports that clearly state that the Steam version of a game is not used)
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
all good, we all start somewhere
fair-rose
fair-rose2y ago
Even Steam based reports are nonsense mostly, true way is searching Proton tracker itself
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Tells Steam to add the text before at the start of its launch command (instead of at the end) Normally the option in Steam is intended to be used like the option in Heroic: Everything you put into it is added at the end. But since Steam lacks env vars & wrapper settings (and they figured that'd probably go over the average user's head), they made that same text input serve 3 functions
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
ah

Does it make any difference if i start cyberpunk from steam or from hgl directly?
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
no, it shouldn't as long as you don't have compatability mode on inside of steam
fair-rose
fair-rose2y ago
Use from HGL first, don't add any other variables ( in that case Steam ) into pot before you verify it works Even for Deck imo that is the way
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
I should give you the new log file so you can see if i made any mistakes by trying to follow your instructions
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
That does sound like a plan
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
because it still only does soundand a absurdly small window
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
after launching, post a new log. new logs are always good
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
what about VK3D ? should i check that box?
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Yes
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
leave everything else the same, just make the changes we suggested
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago

Unless told otherwise you should always keep them on

Steam Runtime's still on
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
steam runtime is still true
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
Nvidia Prime still needs to be turned off
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
but there was no checkbox to uncheck how do i do that?
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Oh right, you're using Wine-GE now Steam RT won't do anything then
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
No description
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
it's odd that it's labeled so drastically different in the log vs the UI
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
okay i disabled it
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
did you turn off steam runtime as well?
CommandMC

Try again but your previous log was showing vkd3d basically blew up and it was on NV anyways
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
hm weird
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
ooooh, gotcha "enableFsync": false, turn that back on
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Something is indeed amiss in those logs
fair-rose
fair-rose2y ago
Fsync missing won't lead to vkd3d errors i think
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
no, but if there's noise about it in the logs then it would be nice to cut them out
fair-rose
fair-rose2y ago
Your post says you're on Wayland tho, can you try with X? Nv is not exactly best with it so if there is some window operation goes wrong that might explain why things blows
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Well for Esync/Fsync, the safer option would be to turn them off, not on
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
i'll turn em off
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
okay, you know better 🙂
fair-rose

Game works fine with them, just played couple days ago with them enabled ( Steam copy so enabled by default )
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
So these should be the right settings i could switch to X11 real quick?
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
yes
conscious-sapphire

Nice X11 fixed everything it directly launched into fullscreen

Enable esync/fsync again

Never played games on linux before i'll do
quickest-silver

it's an experience for sure
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
I heard that wayland is generally better for gaming i guess this isn't true in every case usually i use x11
fair-rose
fair-rose2y ago
It is ok on AMD mostly, not on NV
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
it depends on a lot of factors, i use it for everything i can get away with and i'm on nvidia
fair-rose
fair-rose2y ago
I use Kde Wayland with Rdna 3, stuff works fine Including VRR
CommandMC
CommandMC2y ago
Wayland's fine, the combination of Wayland + Wine + Nvidia Optimus may cause issues though
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
most™️ of my games work just fine on wayland
conscious-sapphire

I usually use KDE X11 but i tried Wayland out after using it on my other Laptop with hyprland.

The commands from proton what are they for and where do i have to put them?
quickest-silver
quickest-silver2y ago
what do you mean? if it's working then you don't have to do anything with proton
conscious-sapphire
conscious-sapphireOP2y ago
the commands from protondb i used in the wrong way
fair-rose
fair-rose2y ago
Other- Env variables VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr For getting RT exposed Enable nvapi in settings of Heroic too To have DLSS support
conscious-sapphire

DLSS would be nice where do i have to put the commands into?

Read the message above Game settings page has all As described
