Hi guys! I'm Tibor Udvari, and I'm working on HexLands, my roguelike deckbuilder, medieval city builder, which is heavily inspired by Slay the Spire and it's open for public playtesting! :)

Recently I finished its new trailer, though the capsule art is still work in progress. Soon there will be treasure islands where you must race with treasure hunters!

Here's a quick summary to save you some time:

• HexLands is a roguelike deckbuilder and city builder set across procedural medieval islands.
• Craft powerful decks, collect game-changing relics, complete quests, and build synergies!
• Gather resources and expand your empire across three unique regions!
• Can you rise above the king who banished you?

If you'd like to know more, just visit HexLands’ Steam page and join the playtest, I'd love to hear your feedback! Thanks in advance! :)

Happy new year and have a great weekend,

Tibor

Hello! I've been playing UT2004 in Pop OS since I switched operating systems a few days ago. Right now I'm having a problem with UT2004 not saving the resolutions settings properly.

I have to enter the command setres 1920x1080 and set to fullscreen everytime I play.

The *.ini files also have the correct XFullscreenview and Y commands as well. It's not really a big deal but it would be great if the game runs as its supposed to.

I'd appreciate any help I can get. Thank you!

Currently dual-booting Windows and CachyOS on my Lenovo Legion Go.

In Windows, there's this folder for the game in Local App Data or something, I set up this Engine.ini file there to improve performance by disabling RT fully, but on Linux I can't get it to work. Steam should generate these folders in a steamcompatibility directory, and it did for other games, but not for E33. I tried manually creating that series of folders, and copying the Engine.ini file there, but it doesn't affect performance so I guess it's not working.

Where should I put this file?

Switched to Linux recently and the only thing keeping my from using it exclusively is every game having significantly worse performance compared to windows. I'm getting half the fps with constant stuttering if it runs at all. My specs are i9-14900 integrated graphics (pls don't ask) 32gb ram.

I don't deny that this idea was born not only after AMD Redstone but also after CES 2026.

Apparently, AMD is not only unable to innovate, but also unable to implement technologies years and years later decently without solid support from video games.

We also add that AMD will essentially stop developing its own AMDVLK drivers to "contribute" to RADV and Mesa.

If it weren't for the contributions of unpaid independent and non-independent developers, Mesa wouldn't exist, as AMD doesn't officially offer driver support itself.

Driver support on Linux is fantastic, compared to the experience with my old RTX 3080 but for the reasons mentioned above, I'm thinking of getting rid of the 9070 XT and replacing it with a 5070 TI also to benefit from all the software sector it offers:

DLSS, GSYNC Pulsar, Reflex, FG, MFG, Dynamic MFG , CUDA, NVENC

RTX 5000 owners, what's the current driver situation?

I'm already aware of the performance gap on DX12, except that, what's your experience?

EDIT: It doesn't seem to be an issue with Proton itself, but rather the mod manager itself. Moving the files manually into the game's root folder does indeed work with Proton 10.0-3

I'm not quite sure what to title this one, but the TLDR is: I've been playing Dark Souls 3 with mods, one .dll mod. Everything was working fine, now it doesn't any longer and I'm not sure how I might be able to fix it.

The long version:
I've modded Dark Souls 3 with Mod Engine 3 Manager, got everything running on Linux (EndeavourOS if that's of any relevance), game started, mods were active, Honest Merchant was working properly (after I found out I had to add WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8.dll=n,b" %command% to the game's launch options). I even had some Re-Shade partially running until I decided it wasn't worth the effort.

Last time I played DS3, 20th of December 2025, it was still going fine, then didn't play until the 5th of January and Honest Merchant wasn't working at all. Everything else was still working as intended and smoothly, just the .dll mod wasn't.

So far I tried reinstalling the mod, putting it directly into the game files and bypassing Mod Engine setup entirely, checked if there had somehow been errors in the launch command, launched the game directly via Steam but nothing worked so far.
I also have my system up to date but ran into some corrupted keyring issues recently that I have already resolved. As for Steam itself, I downloaded it from the Arch repo, not Flatpak.

At this point I have no idea what's causing the issue and I'm out of ideas, besides maybe Proton has gotten an update that somehow broke functionality?

While my brain hurts every time I see the "I will wait for Valve to release SteamOS for PCs" comment, some go even further and say that there should be one-click-install for SteamOS (or other distros).

Which got me thinking, would it be possible to lower barrier to entry that low?
There is existing software of this kind.
For example, old WUBI for installing Ubuntu, and tunic apparently does this as well.

So question is, should there be some effort put into making a modern installer of this kind? Something that even the person with the smoothest brain can use to get Linux on their PC?
Are there any existing projects that try to make this happen?

Im trying to play the absolute banger game FPS Chess but unfortunately that thing just freezes up. It runs fine for 10 seconds i can even create a lobby but then its over. Might be because its unreal engine and doesnt support vulkan?

Initially Valve's Steam Hardware & Software Survey for December 2025 showed Linux at 3.19%, but they appear to have amended it with a nice boost for Linux.

.

Read the full article on GamingOnLinux.

As the title said , do some games doesnt work without lutris and wine ? , because i dont had any issues.

I just need to have a proton installed and steam.

If this keep up , we could make it to 5% until the end of 2026.

Ofc we need microslop to keep bloating their windows.

I have been using linux on my game PC and a lot of things work fine. However I had to stay on X11 because of....NVIDIA. So based on some posts of people having 0 issues on Wayland, I upgraded to Fedora 43. Most games don't work anymore. Like Arc Raiders, CS2. And yes I tried the WAYLAND environment variables but it doesn't work and I m running the latest NVIDIA drivers for my RTX4090.

I spent hours and hours trying to fix it. I thought maybe reinstall it and stay on Fedora 42, but I found out that Fedora 42 is almost end of life.

On my work laptop(Dell with a Quaddro P2000) I m still running Fedora 42 with also X11 because of Teams and Slack.

So how are you Nvidia folks dealing with this? Do I need to switch to another distro that still sticks to X11?

One important detail is that I have dual boot with windows 11 so I need secure boot.

So I'm in a bit of a tail spin. I've been trying to get my pcvr up and running for days with no luck. Each time I get close another issue pops up. I've gone from bazzite to plasma to pop os cosmic to nobara.

Could anybody with similar specs please point me to a dummies guide on how to set it up. I'm just a bit exhausted and feel I need a point in the right direction. I've followed a few diff tutorials but it always seems if you install something from one location eg flatpaks, then later another tutorial says it can't be a flatpak as it needs to interact with steamvr etc. (noob here).

My setup:

Phone(net)>dedicated router>laptop via ethernet. Meta quest 3 connects wireless to the router.

Rtx 5080 32 GB DDR 5 ram.

I have a bad habit of just minimizing my game and going about using my computer as normal. I am wondering if this effects my game play hours.

And is there a way I could get steam to detect when I haven't used my controller for a certain length of time, or for it to tell that my game is minimized? If it is continuing to count my playtime when I am not actually playing?

Hello everyone, first of all thank you very much for your help, and I apologize in advance for this question, which you must be tired of answering by now.

I was an Ubuntu user many years ago, around 20 years ago. I only had a basic, user-level experience.

Currently, I want to transition from Windows to Linux, although I use macOS for my regular work.

My use of Linux will be mainly for data science / MATLAB / Python and simulations, and on the other hand, mainly for video games, which is the reason why I am still on Windows.

I left a separate disk so that I can boot either Windows or Linux depending on the case (and I hope in the future to stick with Linux only).

I tried Pop!_OS and the experience was good, but I’ve heard that lately it has had some issues with its newer releases. What I want the least is to lose time, although I know that’s part of the learning process.

In that regard, I’d like to know which distribution you would recommend. I know the more experienced users will tell me: any of them, they’re all the same. But we all know that some distros are more user-friendly from the start and come with things included (which in the long run, if you don’t use them, you prefer to remove).

My PC specs are:

• Ryzen 7 7900X3D
• RTX 4070 Ti
• ASRock B850i
• 32 GB DDR5 RAM

I appreciate any help you can give me. Thank you very much for helping me through this process.
