GTA V Enhanced ON Linux

Getting 2~ seconds of black screen, then game and launcher closes. Using the fix.bat thing and SteamDeck=1 env doesn't help. [Editi]Solved: https://github.com/telqor/proton-ge-custom/releases telqor made a MR with the fix, you can download the fixed proton in his fork. You still need the fix.bat.

theres a 120fps cap for some reason, no MSAA option, my save file didn't transfer, there isn't a native vulkan option or dx11 (even though rdr2 had vulkan)

unrelated to the fork or heroic though, i guess this "enhanced edition" is DOA.

sensitive-blueOP3mo ago
You can use FSR/DLSS AA With is in my opnion, better than MSAA
relaxed-coral
relaxed-coral3mo ago
yeah i know but the option was available in the old version and it was also available in rdr2 (although its perf impact was huge)

Rockstar cloud, right? But for some reason they decided you need to open GTA V Legacy, go to the menu, and choose the option to upload your save game, after that you can get the save on enhnaced version

same here man just install the redistributables on the GTA 5 directory using winetricks and make sure to not use the fix.bat on first run after installing redistributables

everything is now working for me btw, and I was able to decrease the storage size of the game by following this reddit post to remove all the online files: https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1j3bdii/psa_for_any_gta_v_players_on_linuxsteam_deck/

What exactly does one need to do with the file once downloaded
sensitive-blue
sensitive-blueOP3mo ago
Extract the folder inside the file download here: ~/.steam/steam/compatibilitytools.d/ Like this: ~/.steam/root/compatibilitytools.d/GE-Proton9.../... Then, inside heroic in the game's setting switch the proton version for the new one.

Hey guys, Im on Steam Deck and I can't get it to work for the love of god. I have the fix.bat thing set up, as well as the 9.25-GTA proton version. However, when I try to start the game it just says Internal Error and then "Unable to install prerequisites, please try reinstalling the game". I have tried installing MS redistributables via Protontricks in the GTA folder, however not sure if that worked out since I encountered some errors during that process.

whenever I get the unable to install prerequisites (I see that always for RDR2), I launch the game again and it works fine the second time

unfortunately that's not the case for me. Tried 4 times in a row, always the same
