How can I tell if a game is playable via Proton versus being natively supported?
- everdrive 7y agoI believe natively supported games still receive the "Steamplay" icon, whereas proton-supported games will show the Windows icon, but will install and run on Linux. (assuming proton is configure)
- albertzeyer 7y agoSo how do you know if a game with only the Windows icon is supported (via Proton)?

- mrighele 7y agoLast time I checked by default only a limited number of verified titles is playable with Proton, so if it appears in your list, it should work well. You can enable Proton for all your games, although then I think there is no way to distinguish a verified title from the others.
- coldpie 7y agoThe official whitelist lives here, https://steamdb.info/app/891390/info/ https://steamdb.info/app/891390/info/ about halfway down in the "SteamPlay App Mappings" section. It has very stringent requirements and is not often updated. ProtonDB may be a better place to get an idea if a game is "playable," as opposed to the "perfect" that the whitelist is aiming for.
- Zhyl 7y agoYou can check for individual games or run a check against your whole steam library (by authenticating with Steam) at ProtonDB [1]. [1] www.protondb.com
