No DLSS option for games in heroic launcher (self.linux_gaming)

All my steam games that support dlss work with it, but my games using the heroic games launcher don't even show the option for DLSS in the game menu. I tried researching it but didn't have too much luck with finding a solution. I found one post saying that proton uses dlss by default, I'm using proton experimental but it still doesn't show up.

Heroic launcher is nice but I have had such a hard time enabling features like dlss and mangohud on it.

I'm using Linux mint 22.1.

EDIT: I fixed the issue. There is an option in heroic called "auto install/update DXVK-NVAPI on prefix" I had to enable it in the global settings and on the specific game. DLSS works now with frame gen.

I still have yet to get mangohud working with heroic tho

EDIT 2: I got mangohud to work with heroic. I had to use version 23.08

not sure how heroic works but try adding PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 as a launch/environment variable

I edited my post with the solution. There was a setting I had to enable globally and per game to enable dlss. Thanks for the help
