Valve Software has announced the release of Proton 9.0-4, which addresses issues for several games, including APB Reloaded, Conqueror's Blade, Cube Hero Odyssey, Disgaea 4 Complete+, Hard Chip Demo, ScarQuest, Sniper Elite, Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown, Total War: SHOGUN 2, and Warhammer 40k: Space Marine 2.
The update also resolves issues with Hell Let Loose, Final Fantasy XVI, and additional titles. This update addresses keyboard input issues in Rivals of Aether II, resolves the crashing of Chromacell on launch, and introduces support for NVIDIA Optical Flow API and DLSS 3 Frame Generation. The update resolves various issues, including the malfunctioning of single-player games such as Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast, Hard Reset Redux, and Shadow Warrior on AMD GPUs. It also addresses the improper exit of Skull and Bones on Nvidia GPU systems, the unplayability of Dark and Darker following a game update, and the lack of configurability in the EA Desktop App setup.
