Stable Build:

This release now will be based on GE-Proton9-19, instead of the 9-18 version. Working with DXVK 1.10.3, VKD3D 2.6 and everything added on the prior versions. Tough there are some changes.

Global Prefix Update:

  • Restored Global Prefix to Valve’s/GE default configuration.
  • Removed outdated customizations initially added to resolve issues that are now addressed in current versions of Wine and Proton.
  • Two-week testing confirmed that previous issues are resolved, allowing removal of these customizations to avoid potential conflicts.
  • No impact on other customizations: Changes only apply to the Global Prefix. Custom prefixes for specific games, including those from GE-Proton, Wine-GE, and additional Sarek-specific prefixes, remain unaffected.

Need for Speed (2003-2008) Mod Support:

  • Added custom prefixes for Need for Speed games from 2003-2008 to improve compatibility with mods.
    • Supported games:
      • Need for Speed: Underground
      • Need for Speed: Underground 2
      • Need for Speed: Most Wanted
      • Need for Speed: ProStreet
      • Need for Speed: Undercover
  • Executable naming requirement: Ensure your game executable matches one of the following for mod compatibility:
    • speed.exe, speed2.exe, nfs.exe, or nfsc.exe

How to Use Sarek with Non-Steam Games

Recommended and Supported Method (via Steam):

  1. Add the game as a non-Steam game in your Steam library.
  2. Go to the game’s properties, enable the "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool" option, and select Sarek from the list.

Why add Non-Steam Games Prefixes to Sarek?:

Adding non-Steam prefixes doesn’t interfere with Steam games; it simply offers a custom environment for enjoying Non-Steam games through Proton. This way, even games outside Steam’s library can benefit from Sarek’s enhancements.

Looking forward, expect more custom prefixes to support modding. My friends and I are passionate about creating and enjoying game mods, and these prefixes will help make that experience smoother for people in general.

Stable Async Build:

This build is similar to the stable version but uses DXVK 1.10.3 Async instead of the regular one.

Thats all for now GLHF :)
