Every single time I launch Skyrim it wants to compile shaders.
First time I let it run its course, it took 30 minutes.
Second time I thought it should be faster. Nope, 30 minutes.
Now I just skip it.
Then I have to click "no" on a popup window that says "Steam is not responding, want to kill it?" 5-6 times.
Then it launches normally.
Linux verified, Gold rating on ProtonDB btw ๐
(still no clue what shaders are or why they need to be compiled at launch)
There is an option in steam which caches(saves) a version of the shaders so you don't have to download it every time you launche.
Just checked, I have 4GB of shaders stored, but it doesn't seem to help.
It doesn't help me either
