ok so i have Assassins creed odyssey installed on windows in the c drive, and when i use lutris to play it it launched with dxvk and very nice all good BUT. frames are so low compared to running it normally on windows and other than that some glitches with the audio and stuff. i have 2 questions:

1- is this normal ? i’ve heard stuff about compiling shaders but i’ve spent more than 30 min and frames were still 20-25 compared to 40+ on windows.

2- does it matter if i install the games on windows or linux drive, and if it does can i just copy the game from windows and put it in linux ? becuase the first time i’ve tried cut and paste from windows to linux it caused problems and i’ve lost the game files

a thing i’ve noticed is the game not saving my game progress. is that related to the second problem ?

please if you know anything about any of these problems i hope you enlighten me with some of your knowledge

sorry for the textwall.

    You have to go through the NTFS (Windows partition format) driver which isn’t as quick or reliable. If you have the option I would take it off the drive through the steam library management

      Nah… I guarantee that the new ntfs3 kernel driver from Linux is almost as fast as Windows’ own NTFS driver.

      The only annoying thing about it at this moment, is having to run ntfsfix --clear-dirty /dev/sdXX to clear the ‘dirty bit’ when there’s a power outage, otherwise you won’t let you mount the partition.
