No Man's Sky Proton Experimental

A new Proton Experimental update was released today that focuses more on fixing some issues with some games. The touch screen input for No Man's Sky has been fixed in menus, while Supermarket Together should now detect DLC across all systems. Deviator's crashes with AMD GPUs should not be a problem anymore, and nvapi has been re-enabled for Neverwinter and Star Trek Online.

The new Proton Experimental update should automatically download if you already have the experimental layer. If not, just search for Proton Experimental in the Steam store on your Steam Deck and download.
