Alan Wake 2 on Lutris, with a 7800XT. How to raytracing? Fix textures? (lemm.ee)

Hi guys!

So...yeah. Brand new computer. I installed Lutris flatpak, and installed Alan Wake 2 without much fuss. However textures are a bit off, and the Path Tracing options are all greyed out. How can I enable them? Also, is there any updates on the bug fix for this? Just in case, I'm running KDE Neon (based off of Ubuntu 22.04, but I updated the kernel to OEM 6.5.0). Thank you!

Oh wow, that sounds fucked up. I don’t remember the ext4 requirement for /boot but after reading your comment the EFI stuff came back to me. I also thought it was weird and painful.

Anyway, glad you sorted it out. It should (hopefully) be smooth sailing from here.

Sigh...Thanks. I wish it was. I just ran the same Alan Wake install on the provided Lutris and well...the Textures are indeed fixed, I can see the FBI jackets and the faces look better...but now performance is abysmal, with frame drops to 10-15fps (1080p all max)...and RT is not even enabled (still grayed out), checked both in Wayland and X11. I think for a 7800XT I should be getting much better as long as RT or Path Tracing is not running.

EDIT: Seems this happens only with AW2. Cyberpunk and Starfield seem to have similar performance as before. So there's something going on with AW2 in Nobara.

It’s a fairly new game. The WINE and Proton devs might still be working out kinks.

I couldn’t even find it in ProtonDB.

You could also test different Proton versions.

Proton-GE 8-22 had a fix for HDR on AW2, so there’s definitely people looking into it.
