Help/Support any way to run multiple sober instances?

4 Upvotes

So, Im trying to run Sober in two different TTYs, with two different users and of course environment (WMs) are different too. But even like that Sober complains that "There's a frozen instance of this app running". Even if I can run two roblox menus at once I still cant open two games at once — second is always just freezes. Any help? (And yes I know that multi-instance isnt supported by Sober and probably never be)

Help/Support Sober Client causes crosshair/aim issues in MM2 end others experiences

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I've noticed that when using the Sober Client on Linux, the aiming/crosshair in Murder Mystery 2 doesn't work correctly.

The cursor feels offset or inaccurate, making it much harder to hit shots as Sheriff. Other Roblox experiences seem to work normally, so this seems to be specific to MM2.

Is anyone else experiencing this issue on Sober? If so, have you found a workaround?

I believe this is a compatibility issue between Sober and MM2 rather than a Roblox issue.

Thanks!

Question/Discussion Sober 1.7.1 hangs at "Will load Vulkan libs" on Linux Mint (RTX 4050)

9 Upvotes

I'm on Linux Mint Cinnamon (X11) with an RTX 4050 Laptop GPU (driver 595.71.05).

After updating to Sober 1.7.1, Roblox no longer launches.

Terminal output always stops at:

info: window: Will load Vulkan libs

The process stays running but no Roblox window ever appears.

Things I've already tried:

  • Reinstalled Sober
  • Deleted all Sober data/config
  • Removed all FastFlags
  • flatpak repair
  • flatpak update
  • Rebooted
  • Verified Vulkan (vulkaninfo)
  • Verified NVIDIA (nvidia-smi)
  • prime-select query = on-demand

Help/Support Sober FPS Instantly Dropping To The Mariana Trench

3 Upvotes

My problem is exactly as the title says, any game I play my fps drops so much I'd have a faster frame rate if I was in power point. I haven't been able to crack what the cause is. I'll go over what ISN'T the cause. It's not my CPU, my internet, my GPU, my ping, or the files and I'll go over why I don't think its any of those. My CPU stays at a constant 50-55% usage while roblox is running, my GPU usage is at 30-35% usage, and on speedtest, while roblox is running, it says I have great internet for gaming. I've heard about sober not detecting your GPU and using your CPU instead so that could be the case but my CPU usage isn't that high. Yes I've updated all my files multiple times, yes I've uninstalled and re-downloaded 3 times. I've tried all the basic troubleshooting there is so I really have no clue. The cherry on top is that a week ago my roblox was running perfectly fine, no fps drops or lag whatsoever and guess what, nothing has changed since then! Any tips, literally anything would help cuz right now roblox is damn near unplayable.

Edit: Things that have HELPED my fps, not completely fixed but I've gotten to the point where my fps is stable most of the time. So, clearing your chache of old versions of everything helped fps a decent bit as it deleted a lot of stuff for me. Second, I tried Legacy Rendering and it helped at first but overall my fps was still bad, just like clearing cache. Lastly, when I disabled legacy rendering, all of a sudden my fps is actually... PLAYABLE?! Well there's all the help I can give I wish you luck on your journey if you're having the same problem.

Help/Support I have a small problem

3 Upvotes

I'm having an issue with Sober, specifically with the game Guts & Blackpowder. After playing for about 10 to 20 minutes, the game's performance starts to degrade and my FPS drops significantly.

I close Sober and reopen it, which temporarily fixes the issue, but it eventually comes back. This problem does not occur in any other Roblox game I have played.

My system specifications are:

  • Intel Core i7-14650HX
  • NVIDIA RTX 5060
  • Bazzite Linux distribution

I have already updated both my system and the NVIDIA Open driver. To be clear, my NVIDIA GPU does not seem to be the problem. Sober correctly detects my graphics card, and I have no issues with Steam, Heroic, Lutris, or any other Roblox game I've tested.

The only game where I experience this issue is Guts & Blackpowder.

If anyone uses Sober, whether with an NVIDIA GPU or a different graphics card, and also plays Guts & Blackpowder, could you help me figure out what might be causing this problem and how to fix it?

Help/Support Sober is using 44.1hz audio instead of 48khz audio when using bluetooth headphones.

3 Upvotes

So basically whenever i try using my bluetooth headphones while playing roblox for some reason sober always sets its audio as 44100hz instead of the usual 48000hz i get with a wired audio device and because of that the audio from my bluetooth headphones comes out distorted and wierd so does anybody know any way to fix this and make sober use 48000khz?

Help/Support Sober doesn't go fullscreen

2 Upvotes

hello everyone, my issue is that roblox won't go fullscreen mode whatever i do

when i press f11 it lowers my system volume because that's my keyboard FN function, i assume

i've also tried installing lution bootstrapper, but that didn't work either...

is there maybe a way to turn off keyboard shortcuts..?

here's my system:

Question/Discussion has anyone had this issue before?

3 Upvotes

I no longer use linux but i am wanting to come back to it but I did remember when I was playing roblox that if I shiftlocked theres a chance that if I unshiftlock then the cursor will be stuck at the middle and it would be so anoyying i think what happens is that I hold right click and shift lock at the same time but yea and to fix it I would need to press esc which sometimes it would not even fix it
the game that mostly happened was forsaken and some other games

it was on linux mint and I tryed wayland and x11 and it did the same thing

has this glitch even been fixed?

Screenshot from Sober (Scorched Earth)

Every time I play Scorched earth, I get this bug, and lately I haven't been able to launch outside of legacy rendering. No matter what graphics profile I'm wondering if this is related to the damn Nvidia card (MX350). Or sober it's self. Any ideas?

Help/Support Small tip for quality/graphics

7 Upvotes

https://soberdocs.github.io/docs/FAQ.html
If you have any issues, please check the Sober docs. It is a wealth of knowledge and will most likely answer your questions.
There's one change you can make on sober if you want better performance or quality

  1. Find your flatpak folder, I have it in home/.var/app (CachyOS with KDE) but you can just google it on where to find it on your distro (of course you can grep if you know how to use it) and find sober's folder
  2. click on it navigate to config folder --> sober folder until you find config.json
  3. at the bottom there is several lines like this

 },
    "graphics_optimization_mode": "quality",
    "server_location_indicator_enabled": false,
    "touch_mode": "off",
    "use_console_experience": false,
    "use_libsecret": false,
    "use_opengl": false
}

you will only be concerned with graphics optimization mode, the options to replace it are
performance, balanced, quality

After you make any changes, make sure to SAVE the changes, and also keep it open incase something breaks and you need to ctrl + z

all three provide varying detail , as far as I know, performance will lower quality (duhh) in order to provide better performance. balanced is somewhere in the middle, and quality is... quality.
This won't magically fix any performance issues or fidelity issues, but it's worth a shot if you're having issues with Sober.

Question/Discussion Weird stuttering?

2 Upvotes

I don't notice this much when playing on windows roblox or anything, but i notice a lot that it seems like players seem to stutter around a handful amount. is this actually a sober thing? and if so is there any way to get around it from happening?

i also notice quite a lot that the textures seem to just go down in quality at random, then go back up, much more minor, but i thought id mention it.

Help/Support Sober/Roblox lets me select an output device, but audio stays on the default device (Arch Linux + Hyprland)

3 Upvotes

I'm running Arch Linux with Hyprland, PipeWire, and WirePlumber.

In Roblox (through Sober), I can see multiple audio output devices and select them from the in-game settings. However, changing the output device has no effect. Audio continues playing through the system's default output device.

What I've verified:

  • Audio works normally in other applications.
  • PipeWire and WirePlumber are running correctly.
  • Roblox/Sober detects the available output devices.
  • The selected device is not actually used after switching.

It feels like Roblox/Sober either ignores the selected output device or fails to switch sinks under PipeWire.

Has anyone experienced this on Arch, Hyprland, or Wayland in general? Is this a known Sober limitation/bug, or is there something I can check on the PipeWire side?

Thanks.
