Overwatch DX11

Feedback & Suggestions

This installer for Overwatch works flawlessly (so far) on my AMD machine without the graphics card. I just wanted to shout out to whoever did it, you did a wonderful job. Thank you.

I will be testing with the graphics card (GTX 1060) as soon as I can, and I want to upgrade to ubuntu 18.04 soon, too. Will provide feedback on those updates here when I have them.
I’m currently on Ubuntu 16.04, AMD - A8-7600 3.1GHz Quad-Core Processor and Gigabyte - GA-F2A68HM-H Micro ATX FM2+ Motherboard, for reference.

UPDATE

  • Tested on my Intel system, with GTX 1060
    Getting a steady 60 - 70fps on ultra
    Shader cache seems to fill faster (might be because of previous games, not sure)

I had an audio issue where if I left a voice channel the client would freeze. That’s no longer happening (same goes for the other install script, too)

Specs:
CPU: Intel - Core i7-7700K 4.2GHz Quad-Core Processor
MOBO: MSI - B250 PC MATE ATX LGA1151 Motherboard
GPU: Zotac - GeForce GTX 1060 6GB 6GB Mini Video Card

UPDATE

  • On my AMD system, with the graphics card in, monitor connected via HDMI -> VGA adapter:
    Getting this error when I launch OW:

The Blizzard app launches fine. Doesn’t look like I’ll get it to work with the GPU until I can upgrade my monitor.

UPDATE

  • On my AMD system, Ubuntu 18.04, with the graphics card plugged in via HDMI -> VGA adapter:
    Overwatch won’t install.
    The install script says all went well, but when I launch the game I get this error:

When I check the program files folder, there’s no Battle.Net folder. I believe I’ve encountered this issue before and just had to keep retrying the installation until it worked. I’ve retried it at least 5 or 6 times for the night and no success.

I’ll try troubleshooting this, but any help would be appreciated.

AMD System, running on Ubuntu 18.04

I thought I got everything. I’ll reinstall everything just to be sure.

Got it installed, but I’m still getting this error:

Might this be because I’m connecting my monitor to the graphics card via an adapter?

You need newer driver for DXVK 0.60+. (Or use DXVK 0.54 with older drivers)

Installed the proprietary nvidia drivers, and it worked. I was able to play a game just fine. Shader cache may be worse, but that may be because I had my graphics set to medium.
