Proton 5.9-GE-6-ST Steam Linux | Horizon Zero Dawn Complete Edition on PC gameplay on Ubuntu 30 fps
✅ Tested on GTX 1650 the cheapest GPU on Turing architecture.
It works on Proton 5.9-GE-6-ST and Nvidia beta driver 450.66 .
User drwhut:
I'm just going to leave this here for anyone who might wonder upon it to try and get the game working:
Use Proton 5.9-GE-S-ST, instructions on how to install it are here.
If you use the NVIDIA drivers, update them to version 450.66. If you are on Ubuntu, you can use the graphics-drivers PPA to get them:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:graphics-drivers/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nvidia-driver-450
Copy Horizon Zero Dawn/Tools/ShaderCompiler/PC/10.0.18362.0/x64/d3dcompiler_47.dll to Horizon Zero Dawn/d3dcompiler_47.dll, next to the executable.
Optional: I'm not sure if this actually affects anything, but I have also upgraded my kernel from 5.4 to 5.8.
However, as of right now for me:
The performance at 1080p for me on Ultra is literally a slideshow.
The game starts off in borderless mode, but trying to switch to fullscreen mode just results in crashing for me at the minute.
Others have also said that borderless is quite glitchy at the minute (e.g. flying rocks and trees), so the current workaround is to switch to windowed mode.
