Resident Evil 7 Proton GE 10-13

A new Proton GE update was released that includes a bunch of fixes for a multitude of games. The intro videos for Resident Evil 7 and 8 were fixed, while Sky and Akiba's Trip also had some videos fixed. We also have some fixes for One Piece Pirate Warriors, Warhammer 40K: Dawn of War Definitive Edition, and all the components of the layer have been updated.

For those who don't know about Proton GE, how to get it on the Steam Deck, or how to update, check out our Proton GE guide! We go over all of this and explain why having GE is important.

Proton GE 10-13 Update Changelog:

  • intro video playback fixed in Resident Evil 7
  • intro video playback fixed in Resident Evil 8
  • Upside down cinema video playback fixed in Sky: Children of the Light
  • Upside down video playback fixed in Akiba's Trip: Undead & Undressed
  • Two new environment variable options added:
  1. PROTON_MEDIA_USE_GST=1 will tell proton to use the winegstreamer backend instead of the default winedmo backend (the winedmo backend was introduced in Proton 10 and is the current preferred video playback method). This can be useful for games with videos that may have worked in Proton 9 but regressed in Proton 10.
  2. PROTON_GST_VIDEO_ORIENTATION=<orientation> can be any of the following: vertical-flip, horizontal-flip, rotate-180, automatic. This is useful if some games have videos that are upside down or otherwise not oriented correctly.

Example usage: PROTON_GST_VIDEO_ORIENTATION=vertical-flip. If you set PROTON_GST_VIDEO_ORIENTATION it will also automatically force the winegstreamer backend to be used, as manual orientation is not possible with winedmo.
