Tutorial: Cyberpunk 2077 2.0 Phantom Liberty Linux with Ray Tracing

Game locks up on me every 10-15mins no matter what I’ve tried with 2.0. Gonna need to wait on this one again.

What are you on ? (WM, DE, Runner … ) I see seem to have similar problems maybe we can work out what’s wrong

I know I should have posted more info but I wasn’t neary PC and was just venting after fighting it for days then giving up lol.

Manjaro i3, tried several Proton/GE versions. 2070 Super. May be the old issue where the game doesn’t properly release VRAM but I haven’t watched my specs to be sure.

So far I’ve had 5 different people, me included have this problem, all with a 2070 Super

Oh wow that’s a data point for sure…

Happens to me too and I have 3080

That’s interesting. After patch 2.0.1 didn’t fix it, I just went and installed it on Windows… sucks to have to reboot all the time though

After 2.0 the HDD auto feature seemed to have been causing a bug where every car would stop as I got in near, but it wasn’t crashing. I changed the HDD mode to off and while it fixed the cars stopping bug, now it seems to crash.

Does this allow the DLSS 3.5 ray reconstruction to work?

Vash63 , 10 months ago

No, for that you need DXVK_NVAPI_DRIVER_VERSION=53799 to trick it into thinking your driver version is higher.

Molecular0079 , 10 months ago

Ah thanks for the tip! I’ll try this out.

Molecular0079 , 10 months ago

Just tried it. It seems to work! Unfortunately performance is about 9 frames lower than in Windows, which brings the playable performance in Linux to sub-30. Still, nice to see that it works at least.

To anyone who’s playing it: Is Phantom Liberty worth the $30?

Kaldo , 10 months ago (edited 10 months ago)

Id say 2.0 is worth it alone and all content in PL is icing on the cake, but everyone has a different definition of worth. Some people paid a hundred bucks for starfield for example and I'll never understand it. I also find it hard to argue against PL since no other game really fits this niche so I'm happy with any extra content we can get.

eager_eagle , 10 months ago

right, I’m asking about the DLC alone, I already have 2.0 without PL

Kaldo , 10 months ago

Yeah sorry I wasn't clear enough. Basically if you liked the base game, DLC is more of it. If you didnt I dont think it's gonna do much for you. I'm only a few hours into the DLC but it's been pretty great so far, but then again I loved most of the core game as well. Worth 30 for me.

I read that it doesn’t work now, and you’re using lutris.

Have you tried Heroic (appimage) and Proton-GE?

Also, the expansion (phantom liberty) has DRM, so you won’t be able to run it from GOG just yet (there are workarounds like installing gog galaxy on wine, or using comet). First try to get ray tracing running without the expansion

Wow I love your website’s style? Was this done with static HTML or with a JS framework?
