I want to run some old DirectX-11 games using Vulkan via DxVk.
I can install/run/play them just fine from PoL (and directly from HDD), but without any DX features. I have Vulkan installed and am using the latest 3.16 distro of Wine which supposedly supports Vulkan. But there's doesn't appear to be any setting under PoL to enable it.
Is this possible with the current version? If not, will there be an update to support it? Thx.

Thanks for the reply.
I'm a bit of a Linux neophyte so I'm not sure what to do with a ".json" file. I also see the files say they will "upgrade" you to v0.53 of DxVK. I have the 0.72 files and I believe the latest version is now 0.80.
Are these ".json" files out of date?
All help is appreciated. Thx.

It's a so called Verb which can be used in the installation script. Check the README in the repository to get an idea about how you can write a script. Don't be afraid, it's really easy once you get it. As I said before, it's best to open an issue on GitHub if you run into problems - especially because you can get assistance by the guy who developed the dxvk support.

"Writing" a json script isn't anything I'm worried about. I just don't know how to RUN one. :)
"chmod +x"?
Thx.

No no. You checkout the scripts repository, add your script and then you can start it directly from within Phoenicis.

Okay, remember I'm pretty low-level on manhandling Linux.
I'm not sure how I would "checkout the scripts repository" or what exactly that even means.
And I'm not sure how I would start something "from within Phoenicis" since I'm not even aware I even have "Phoenicis" installed. Is it an app from the Ubu App Store? Do I d/l & install it directly? :(
Thx.

Sorry for the late reply but I don't get on Linux often.
I installed PoL-5 and downloaded the Repository from the Terminal, but after that, I don't see how to add it from PoL Settings. I have three tabs: "Internet", "Plugins" and "File Associations" and none of them mention adding a Repository ("Plugins" has an add button but wants a ".pol" file.)
Thx.

You have to add the repository to PoL 5. Looks like you're trying to add it to PoL 4. That's not gonna work.

When I try to launch "Phoenicis", I simply get a busy icon for a few seconds then nothing.
"Info" says it's a CLI. What would I launch from the Terminal and how?

Please run from the terminal to get some output and open an issue on GitHub. Usually you run phoenicis.sh. If you installed the deb, run the JavaFX version (not CLI).

Does dxvk also support DirectX9? Older games usually require DirectX9.

I have been running DXVK with a manual installation in PlayOnLinux 4
Works great!
I just manually add the libraries in Wine Configuration (Library Tab) & Set them all as "windows (Native)"
- d3d10
- d3d10_1
- d3d10core
- d3d11
- dxgi
Then I use a Staging version of Wine and copy/paste the DLLs to the games executable directory.
We have a small guide on how to prepare your system for DXVK here: GamersOnLinux
