I saw a video the other day that compared F:NV via DirectX 9 and DXVK on Windows and how DXVK (and Vulkan underneath of course) does magic to make it so much better with frame pacing.
It’s funny how we get that by default on Linux, and Windows folks are trying out parts of Proton to improve their gaming experience in Windows in various games. 🤣
What’s even funnier is that at least in the case of New Vegas, it’s actually even better on Linux, as it compiles and caches the Vulkan shaders, so we shouldn’t have any hiccups (once it’s cached), at least if you’re running it in Steam.
