Intel using DXVK (part of Steam Proton) for their Windows Arc GPU DX 9 drivers

Intel recently announced a big driver update for their Arc GPUs on Windows, because their DirectX 9 performance was bad. Turns out, they're using the open source DXVK which is part of Steam Play Proton.

Interesting one, I'm curious if Destiny2 works at all, like the anti-cheat should work but there is some frame tampering thing they wrote for the graphics part of Destiny2 if I remember to block stuff like this.

You're confusing Proton as a whole on Linux, with DXVK as a library.

They don't need any workarounds, it's on Windows, it has the Windows Kernel.

@shanefagan I see. Well, either way it shouldn't be an issue, being part of the driver itself

@shanefagan It won't be a straight-up DXVK slotted into it, no doubt a hard-fork on the code to take what they need

is this new or have they been doing it the whole time? I never understood how their directx translation was so slow being that the problem's already been solved for years with DXVK.
