A test of three different ways to run Rocket League on Linux. This is the second part, first video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zaaSP8urbew

1. Linux native
2. Linux native with NVIDIA's threaded OpenGL ("__GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS=1 %command%" as a launch option on Steam)
3. Steam Play with D9VK

Aww thanks, I'm low silver in both 1v1 and 2v2, just can't seem to break into Gold.

What is GL_THREADED?

The full article linked in the description has some more info FYI: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/a-three-way-look-at-rocket-league-on-linux-with-d9vk-versus-linux-native.14718 In short: It's an NVIDIA driver feature, to speed up OpenGL games and applications. It can be set on a per-game basis, using Steam launch options for those with NVIDIA GPUs by adding this as a launch option: __GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS=1 %command%

Surprising, wasn't __GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS=1 the default behavior ?

@@gamingonlinux Erf, I believed it was. I'll have to do some tinkering with my launch script then. Thanks for sharing this guys ;)

Nope. On the driver side its only enabled for about 6 or 7 games total. The rest need to do it themselves. Some games like Feral ports and VP ports do it in their launch scripts but RL does not.

Please test with dota2

So is the __GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS=1 launch command only for NVIDIA GPU's? Because I have an RX 480 and the proton version works great but I can feel slight input lag
