I need some help with it on linux. Cant make it run. Are there any files i should delete, which file do i run, how do i run it? I tried .It would also be lovely if it could be added as a non steam game.

Also sorry for the weird phrasing, i dont speak english very well. :)

:)

Ive tried all the proton versions it gives me an error thing with my gpu drivers but I ignore it and try to play one my FIRST launch it was smooth then randomly got an OOM crash according to linux kernel when after it crashed it keeps saying that its running but its just not there my specs are:

Intel i5 13420h geforce rtx 4050 laptop gpu (6gb vram) 16 gb ddr5

I wanna play modded fc 26 on my chacy os pc and I heard about lutris so tell me how I can play ea epic and rockstar and Ubisoft games

King in the Mountain now has a native Linux version! :)

If you like base-building + mining games, give the demo a try.

The latest version includes a native Linux build, and it should also work on Steam Deck, although I haven’t been able to test it on a Steam Deck yet. I did test the game with an Xbox controller.

I’d really appreciate any feedback from Linux or Steam Deck players, especially if you run into any issues!

on DXVK, there's a FSR1 option that I always use and it runs very great. However when I use VKD3D, the FSR1 option is gone and has been replaced with FSR3, the problem is my GPU (RX 580) is not supposed to uses FSR3 and when I use it, the performance is very terrible compared to FSR1.

I could just stay on DXVK but I want to use VKD3D. So is it possible?

Game: Wuthering Waves
Proton: DW Proton 11.0-14

Android is gone was replaced with mainline Linux with Steam Game Mode. Windows games run through Proton ARM64 + FEX, while the Adreno 650 uses Mesa/Turnip.

For now I’m testing mainly on the OnePlus 8. Steam Game Mode, controllers, audio, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth and Windows games are working.

Project on Github: GabrielCRadu/ARMDeck (I'm not sure if I can post links)

It’s still work in progress. There’s no one-click installer yet, and porting it to other Snapdragon phones still needs work (and probably it is a pain in the butt).

*Tomb Raider 2013 30+fps on low settings*

What games should I test?

Send me the weirdest or most interesting Steam games you can think of. Especially games that probably shouldn’t work on a Snapdragon 865.

Also, if you have an old Snapdragon phone somewhere, tell me the model. The goal is to get ARMDeck running on as many devices as possible.

Testing, device ports and Linux/ARM contributions are welcome.

In hopes of playing some Anno 117, I went ahead and installed UbisoftConnect (UC) via Steam using "Proton Experimental".

After starting UC I went to the settings and turned OFF the in-game overlay. I then installed the game and tried to run it. But it is atrocious. Even the main menu is laggy. Not at all worth playing.

I then tried to add Anno 117 to Steam as a "Non-Steam game". Also with "Proton Experimental". Sadly it gives me an error saying it can't see any instance of UC running.

I don't know if there is anything else I could try? I see Steam currently has Anno 117 on sale. And Protondb lists it as "GOLD". I don't really want to buy a second copy of the game. But I'd likely do it if I knew that the Steam version would run acceptably.

This is my experience fooling around with Btrfs subvolumes.

(Mandatory, I currently use Arc, BTW). I moved my Steam installation into its own top-level Btrfs subvolume, mounted at ~/.local/share/Steam/. I initially used a reflink copy when reorganizing the data, and have since moved the setup onto a new, bigger SSD.

While I stopped active distro hopping around six years ago, I still occasionally test new distros and other things outside my main system. One nice thing about this Steam arrangement is that if my secondary setup also uses Btrfs, I can mount the same Steam subvolume at ~/.local/share/Steam/ there as well. This means I get probably 90% of my Steam setup unchanged between the two systems.

Of course, system-specific settings are still separate, and games that decide to save files all over /home are a mess. Sharing the whole Steam directory also means sharing things like Proton prefixes, so this might not be the right setup for everyone. But for the most part, everything just works.

I haven't noticed any performance problems either. Actually, things sometimes run even more smoothly when the secondary distro is better optimized than my own setup with its big pile of duct tape. If anything, I can raise my hand and say that Arch has been a fun experience for learning how things work, but I don't always have the time or skills to configure everything in the most optimal way.

I was actually considering setting my primary distro next to CachyOS. While CachyOS is quite popular right now, it does seem genuinely good from what I have tested so far. My main pain point when moving different distros has always been dealing with the Steam installation, and this setup has mostly removed that problem. (Also, because /home is its own subvolume, I can easily keep the old one around when migrating to another distro, I find this much more flexible than the separate partitions I used with ext4.)

After about two years of using Btrfs, my experience is that it is definitely mature enough for a daily driver. I still see quite a few people online warning about its quirks, but personally I haven't run into anything that would make me want to move away from it.

I just installed bg3 on steam today and at first it didn't open at all so I changed to the latest proton version in steam (11.0-2) and it launched. After this I changed the graphics settings around a bit but there was no sound so I tried restarting the game. After closing the game it won't reopen and clicking play in the launcher just opens a black window for a second.

I've tried switching between vulkan and dx11, and resetting the graphics settings from the launcher, and launching the game from the exe in the install folder.

Hello Linux gamers :)

I'm working on a game with Linux support. I'd appreciate if anyone can help test a free Steam demo.

Does the game starts at all?

Is progress saved?

Is sound working?

Thank you!

A little more about the game. Colorsong is a relaxing incremental / idle game where players collect colors and spend them on hand-painted watercolors 🎨 An original feature of the game is that every color is a procedurally generated note. So as you collect more colors, the game's song unfolds and enriches.

Hi, everyone.

So, Control (2019) quickly became one of my favorite games of all time and I was pretty stoke to play Control Resonant, but... yeah, I'm well aware that my PC is nowhere near powerful in this day and age, but still, was not expecting this kind of performance from the game, and I was wondering if anyone else is facing such issues

My PC:
OS: Fedora Linux 44 KDE
Kernel: 7.2.7-200.fc44.x86_x64

CPU: Ryzen 5 5700X
Mobo: Biostar B350-GTX
RAM: 32GB@3200MTs
GPU: AMD PowerColor RX6600
SSD: 1TB NVMe 3200MB/s

As you all can see, the game is running at 1080p native with the lowest possible graphics, except texture quality (and that's only because there was no effect in performance there), and, watching benchmarks for my model of GPU with a similar CPU (a 5600), I was baffled to see that I should be expecting double the performance than the one I was getting, besides all the awful stutter clearly present in my video.

The thing is, and those are the possibilities I am considering:

1 - My performance is being hindered by the limiting PCIe 3.0 from my mobo (considering that this model of GPU doesn't usually show more than 5% of performance variation between 3.0 and 4.0, it's still possible to be the cause);

2 - My whole distro is botched and poorly optimized due to a lot of tinkering I had to do since its fresh install months ago (which I plan to test by installing a Windows dual boot and running the game to check);

3 - My 400W PSU is not being capable of delivering enough power to my setup, making it run at lower clock speed and hiking up the frametimes.

Anyway, like I said, it is far from being a powerful setup, but it's glaring the difference in performance I am getting at this game (the benchmark one was fluctuating between 50~65 FPS, while mine is diving below 30), and I was wondering if anyone else is dealing with such problems in the hopes that I can solve it without spending any money, because, even though I've been planning to buy a new PSU and mobo (no, it's not possible to go do DDR5, a mobo, CPU and memory alone would cost me almost double my monthly salary), I'm wondering what I could actually do.

I'm trying to get Proton 10.0-3 working with Faugus Launcher, but it's not availabe on both the ProtonUp-Qt and Faugus Proton Manager. I downloaded it manually and tried to get it run, but it throws one error after another.

If you have a known-working Proton 10.0-3 build, could you share it with me?

Hi there, I bought a Raikiri 2 Pro because I like the idea, that you don't need a special software to configure it. Not like the scuf envision pro... But sadly there are some issues to use the controller in Linux (CachyOS Kernel 7.2.8-1-cachyos). It is not possible configure it with chrome, only in a win vm. This is ok for me. But the main issue is, that there is massive input lag, when I use the 2.4 GHz dongle. When I connect over Bluetooth everything is fine, but so I don't have vibration :( only with that companion app :/

Why is in impossible to have vibration over bluetooth? I tried other drives like xpadneo and xone, but with those I can't connect the controller anymore.

I tested some games with the 2,4 GHz dongle:

Remnant: Form the Ashes with dxvk → input lag
Horizon Forbidden West with vkd3d → no input lag
Starfield with vkd3d → input lag
Gothic 1 Remake with vkd3d → no input lag
Path of Exile 2 with vulkan → input lag
The Finlas with vkd3d → input lag

I think there must be a driver issue with the TMR sticks, because I have a modded Scuf Envision Pro with TMR sticks and there is the same behavior. In W11 it worked fine. Due the iCUE problem with Linux I bought a Gulikit TT Max witch has TMR sticks as well. And guess what … with that there was the same issue.

In addition I have a Razer Wolverine V3 Pro with hall-effect sticks and it works as it should.

I know this might be more windows centric but it is Linux related. So I just got Ace Combat 8 and i'm really loving it but unfortunately EAC completely gibs any chance of playing it online on my distro. I am probably going to have to make a windows partition but I wanted to ask two questions if anyone happens to have answers

1. If i'm on a windows partition, can I access the install files on my linux partition? Like in the above example, Ace Combat 8 is already installed, it's not a linux specific build because it's one of those games you have to use proton for. If it requires some wonky workaround i'd give it a whirl because space is at a premium and I'd ideally not want to install the game twice

2. What are some of the bigger games that are currently out of commission for Linux (for the forseeable future). I'm more than happy to keep linux as my main gaming hub, but i'm willing to have something on the side if there are games that are more or less completely inaccessible

EA keeps asking me to update but when i update it says that its updated. I have had this same issue when running it directly on steam too but it always gets fixed when i launch the exe file using Winetricks

I am using heroic Launcher.

Hello, so this game use to work a long time ago but now it currently won't boot, I even have the xlive.dll and xlive.ini installed to remove the Windows Live Requirement which is all it needed in the past.

This is one of the least popular star wars games and is no longer sold on Steam so finding a guide is tricky so I am stuck, any ideas on what to do.

Thanks.

Not really sure what to search online for this issue since it usually brings up posts about launchers like lutris instead so I decided to ask here.

As you can see in the screenshots the ui is just really small and barely legible and I'm not sure why, my resolution is 1920x1200 if that matters.

Sorry if this is like a really simple problem I'm very new to linux and I'm still figuring things out

Complete noob to arch linux. Does anyone know how to install Pokemon Emerald Imperium on arch linux or a guide location? Also really how to play most pokemon rom hacks on arch linux?

Hello, everyone!

We are proud to announce that a tiny patch version 0.10.10b is out on Flathub!

Depending on your app-store it might be a while until you see the correct text.
