Override bundled DXVK

[emansom]

Is there any method to override the bundled DXVK for testing etc?

One method to override the bundled DXVK is to modify the wine prefix, which comes with the advantage of maintaining the integrity of the Proton build. Since #109, winetricks support has been implemented, requiring either GE-Proton or UMU-Proton to use. See the man page for an example.

Also, please note that the DXVK version reported from DXVK_HUD=version should be reported inaccurately as I believe DXVK uses its read-only version file to report its version.

When installing DXVK to the regular Wine prefix, it gets overriden by the DXVK bundled with UMU-Proton.

./.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/UMU-Proton-9.0-2/files/lib64/wine/x86_64-windows/d3d11.dll
./.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/UMU-Proton-9.0-2/files/lib64/wine/dxvk/d3d11.dll
./.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/UMU-Proton-9.0-2/files/share/default_pfx/drive_c/windows/syswow64/d3d11.dll
./.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/UMU-Proton-9.0-2/files/share/default_pfx/drive_c/windows/system32/d3d11.dll
./.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/UMU-Proton-9.0-2/files/lib/wine/i386-windows/d3d11.dll
./.local/share/Steam/compatibilitytools.d/UMU-Proton-9.0-2/files/lib/wine/dxvk/d3d11.dll

The paths they are located within have read only bits as well, so someone doesn't like me replacing them I figure.

For context, i'm using the latest stable Lutris (arch repo, 0.5.17-5) with UMU-Proton and have set the version of DXVK to "Manual" in Lutris' Runner options and this doesn't do much.

Indeed. If the verb for Proton isn't runinprefix, the relevant DLLs will be copied again. To avoid this, PROTON_VERB=runinprefix must be set after applying the DXVK verb.

However, even if that problem is solved, I suppose this isn't your use case -- I'm guessing you want to use a bleeding edge or your own customized DXVK build?

Yes.
