How to Enable Vulkan Rendering in Wine Games using DXVK

DXVK is a free and open source project that translates Direct3D calls to Vulkan in Linux. Integrating with the Wine compatibility layer, DXVK allows you to use a Vulkan renderer in Direct3D (D3D9, D3D10 and D3D11) applications and games in Linux. DXVK works by replacing existing Direct3D “dll” files in Wine with custom files that convert Direct3D API calls to Vulkan. As a result, you may see improved graphics, increased performance, and better compatibility in 3D apps and games. The performance impact of DXVK can be drastic, improving overall frame rates in most 3D apps and games. Though you may see varied results on a case by case basis.
