Proton 4.2-6 has been released

 Proton 4.2-6 has been released

• More fixes for the new Steam networking API. A Hat In Time's online multiplayer should be functional now.
• DXVK 1.2.1 has been rebuilt with a modern compiler. This should increase performance especially for 32-bit games. (Note, if you build Proton yourself in Vagrant, you will want to make clean and vagrant provision to take advantage of the new compiler; or simply destroy and re-create the VM.)
• Update FAudio to 19.06.
• Fix for more games on non-English locales, like GRID.
• Fix controller rumble in some games, including Team Sonic Racing.
• Improve font rendering in SpellForce 3.
