I’ve tried several lists over the years. The now defunct Thuldor’s Skyrim, and my current Tempus Maledictum list, both experienced the same issue. They get installed and run just fine, but i’m about 60% of the fps short, compared to Windows. I suspect it’s because of the vram overhead, and io bottlenecks in wine
There are some lists that are designed specifically to run with Proton and/or on the Deck, claiming solid 40-60 fps on the Deck, so i’d take a look at what’s available in Wabbajack. In my case, i’ve definitely expected more framerate, but i can’t really complain here, because this list is really heavy in most aspects. 100% worth playing though
Now do it with 200 gigs of mods. I would love to know how stable Skyrim is with mods under proton.
It only takes 1 badly made mod to make Skyrim unstable. I’m not sure what information you would be looking to gain from that.
200 gigs… ? what. the. fuck.
That’s about the avg size of most mod packs on wabbajack!
I’m in the process of doing that rn, probably not 200gigs but just enough to feel different from vanilla

I’ve noticed stuttering issues in modded Empire War, but I also run heavily modded Stalker just fine with 60-70 FPS. Wine is a fickle beast.
That was my general worry, i never got around to really testing it tho. Unfortunate to hear i wasn’t too far off on the IO bottleneck problem.
