    seems like the newest artifact versions don't follow the convention the app expects.

    First issue about this is opened in August 20. It is almost 2 months and there is no fix, not even a word.

    The workaround I used was to manually download and place the right unzipped dxvk release in the location where bottles looks for it, then rename it to what bottles expected.

    ~/.local/share/bottles/dxvk/ is the location. just extract the specific version here, and rename the extracted directory to the version number. for example, .local/share/bottles/dxvk/dxvk-2.7.1/

    Same! Is this project abandoned/EOL?

    We still need a workaround for this problem even after two and half months, but for NVAPI.

    The problem is that there's no 0.6.3+ releases anymore, they were removed for some reason
    You can get it here though https://github.com/jp7677/dxvk-nvapi

    @WarpspeedSCP sorry a bit new to this... but what is the location where bottles look for the file?
