Gears of War: E-Day has a partial DualSense compatibility issue under Proton.

Environment

  • OS: CachyOS, KDE Plasma Wayland
  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080
  • NVIDIA driver: 615.71.09
  • Controller: Sony DualSense connected via USB
  • Steam Input: Disabled

Proton versions tested

The issue reproduces on all of the following official Valve Proton versions:

  • Proton 11
  • Proton Experimental
  • Proton Experimental Bleeding Edge

I also reproduced the same behavior with:

  • GE-Proton
  • Proton-Wineland

DualSense features that work

The game clearly detects the controller through its native DualSense path:

  • PlayStation button glyphs work
  • Gyroscope works
  • Adaptive triggers work

DualSense features that do not work

There is no vibration of any kind:

  • No standard/basic rumble
  • No DualSense advanced haptic feedback

The rest of the native DualSense functionality continues to work normally.

I also tested GE-Proton with:

PROTON_SONY_HIDRAW_XINPUT=1

This did not restore ordinary XInput-style rumble either.

Expected behavior

DualSense vibration/haptic feedback should work in addition to the already-working gyro, adaptive triggers and PlayStation glyphs.

Actual behavior

Gyro, adaptive triggers and PlayStation glyphs work, but the controller never produces vibration or haptic feedback.

Additional notes

This does not appear to be specific to GE-Proton or a CachyOS Proton fork because the same behavior is reproducible with official Proton 11, Proton Experimental and Proton Experimental Bleeding Edge.

The partial feature support may be useful diagnostically: native DualSense input, motion and adaptive-trigger communication are functioning, while the vibration/haptic output path is not.

RTX Mega Geometry / Nanite RT Cluster Acceleration Issue

  • GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090
  • Driver: 615.71.09 (VK_NV_cluster_acceleration_structure rev 4 verified)
  • OS: Nobara Linux (KDE Plasma 6 Wayland)
  • Proton: Proton 11 / Experimental / Bleeding Edge

Behavior:
"RTX Mega Geometry" is greyed out in settings despite the underlying driver exporting VK_NV_cluster_acceleration_structure.

Technical Detail:
The title queries cluster raytracing capabilities via NVAPI D3D12 extensions (NvAPI_D3D12_GetRaytracingCaps). Proton's current dxvk-nvapi / vkd3d-proton stack does not expose the cluster operation enum or bridge the D3D12 cluster structures to Vulkan, leaving the feature locked out.
