Another GE-Proton update has been released to remove the deprecated broken dxvk-async patch.

GE-Proton7-45 Released

Removed deprecated broken dxvk-async patch:

Upstream DXVK has implemented the GraphicsPipelineLibrary (GPL) back in August, which takes over dxvk-async's job:

doitsujin/dxvk#2798

Driver support for Nvidia was added in version 515.49.10:

Driver support for AMD/RADV was added in August 2022 and is an ongoing WIP:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/17542

Per the above, it can be exposed/enabled for testing on AMD/RADV via:
RADV_PERFTEST=gpl

dxvk-async now causes problems with the dxvk-cache, which is not something new users may know how to clear:
Sporif/dxvk-async#55

In light of the above, in addition to the current rebase still not working properly, I am removing the dxvk-async patch from Proton-GE.

RIP dxvk-async 2018-2023
