Anyone know how to make the Finals use my graphics card? (fedia.io)

So i have a problem plsying the Finals on linux. They are clearly garbage graphics. The walls dont even look how they are supposed to and the permanent fog makes it unplayable. The shadowing is too dark. Forget fps, when play on windows and linux it is night and day. Its as if the game isnt using its correct shaders or textures.

Has anyone dealt with this? Im thinking that the finals is not utilizing my nvidia graphics card so if anyone has advice i would greatly appreciate.

I tried letting vulkan load the shaders, ive tried skipping vulkan shaders and there is no difference. Im using proton glorious egg and i have no idea what to do or what the problem is.

EDIT: putting “ PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command% -dx11” in launch options fixed the bad graphics but now i have fps issues unfortunately.

Some other stuff you might try is making sure you're using proton experimental, and try the launch options: PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command% -dx11

Holy shit that worked. I already had what you suggested except for the extra stuff like command and dx11.

That fixed the graphical issue. Now i have this new issus where actions cause stutters. If nade explodes or if i shoot it causes stutters for the first few times.

I thought nvapi was enabled by default on newer protons for a majority of games. It's just meant for nvidia features like dlss and reflex right, or am I confused on what it actually does? I don't have the env var in my launch options but I still have access to all nvidia bells and whistles.
