Sleeping Dogs Linux DXVK Wine – how to play this game on Linux.
Despite the fact both Sleeping Dogs and Sleeping Dogs: Definitive Edition don’t have dedicated Linux versions, you can still play them on Linux very easy. For this game you’ll need Wine or Wine-Staging, DXVK, and a Wine virtual desktop.
You can easy install DXVK following our comprehensive DXVK installation guide. You can also use ESync for an FPS boost.
Now you have to setup a Wine virtual desktop. Without it the game will freeze at start. To start the Wine settings issue the following command:
winecfg
Go to the Graphics tab, select „Emulate a virual desktop“ and set the desired resolution.
- Wine version used in the video – Wine 4.1 with ESync enabled.
- DXVK version: 0.96
