Valve put up a Release Candidate for testing Proton 10.0-4, what will become the main version of the Windows compatibility layer for Linux / SteamOS. The special sauce that enables so many thousands of games to run nicely.

Most of the changes would have already been in Proton Experimental. To test it out you can opt into the Beta on Proton 10 directly in your Steam Library. Valve are interested in finding any issues that didn't happen with the current Proton 10.0-3.

Fixed Agatha Christie: Evil Under the Sun not being playable in French.

What an oddly specific fix

[–] addie@feddit.uk 18 points 3 weeks ago

The actual fix is probably 'enable mixed ASCII / Windows-1252 calls to Windows UTF-16 functions', when some strings have different codepages to others', or something silly. But that fix sounds better.

A rising tide lifts all boats - every improvement is welcome

I love oddly specific patch notes. Always fun.

Yay Valve take my money oh right you were doing that already

I love how the "now playable" games listed in these fixes get more and more obscure. Just means that the well known games all work already

lmao that thumbnail choice

Here’s to hoping this fixes UNBEATABLE; this game runs horribly on Linux
