## Summary
Three community-maintained Proton compatibility layers released new builds within days of each other. Proton-CachyOS rebased on Bleeding Edge Wine with fixes for Arknights: Endfield, Loop Hero, Warcraft III and Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2, plus experimental ZLUDA-based 32-bit PhysX support for AMD GPUs. GE-Proton 11-10 updated to Valve's bleeding-edge Wine with syscall emulation improvements, DXVK v3.1.1-134, and fixes for PlayStation controller slowdowns and KDE Plasma HDR detection. DWProton 11.0-15 tracked the CachyOS update and removed a stale Protonfix.

## What changed in each Proton build
- **Proton-CachyOS**: Rebased on Bleeding Edge experimental-wine-bleeding-edge-11.0-453249-20261016; winewayland.drv pointer constraint fixes; winepipewire.drv async fallback when rtkit missing; game fixes for Arknights: Endfield, Loop Hero (WOW64), Warcraft III v3, Warhammer 40K: Space Marine 2; dxvk-sarek v1.14.1; protonfixes 1.0.15-1867; OptiScaler Streamline SDK prep; experimental 32-bit PhysX via ZLUDA for AMD (native build only, requires manual hip-runtime-amd)
- **GE-Proton 11-10**: Wine from Valve bleeding-edge 2026-10-16 with Syscall User Dispatch, EAC native-syscall handling; DXVK v3.1.1-134 with D3D9/8 fixes and EA anti-cheat workaround; VKD3D-Proton queued transfer sync fix; PlayStation controller XInput fallback rescan fix (Path of Exile, Le Mans Ultimate, Story of Seasons performance restored); Bluetooth DualShock 4/DualSense rumble fix; KDE Plasma HDR per-monitor detection; Arknights: Endfield ACE anti-cheat kernel driver fixes; Star Citizen AMD AGS library loading restored; SRW lock release optimization (Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024: 24.5% to 19.1% ntdll time)
- **DWProton 11.0-15**: Updated to cachyos-11.0-20261014-slr base; removed stale NIKKE launcher Protonfix

## Why it matters
The simultaneous updates highlight the active fragmentation and competition among community Proton forks, each optimizing for different use cases: CachyOS for bleeding-edge Wine and AMD-specific features, GE-Proton for broad game compatibility and controller support, DWProton as a downstream tracker. The GE-Proton controller fix addresses a significant performance regression affecting multiple titles since GE-Proton11-8.
