'This game is extremely broken': The dev of VKD3D-Proton, software for running Direct3D 12 games on Linux, isn't enjoying Forza Horizon 6 very much
The developer of VKD3D-Proton, Hans-Kristian Arntzen, has identified and submitted fixes for issues causing Forza Horizon 6 to perform poorly on Linux. While the game runs well on Windows PCs, Linux gamers have reported significant problems, with Arntzen's work translating Direct3D 12 to Vulkan being key to resolving these glitches. Nvidia has also acknowledged issues and plans a driver release, while Valve's involvement with Steam Deck verification suggests ongoing support for the game on the platform.
