I just got a new NVME drive and I put my OS (Linux Mint) on it and I moved Warhammer to it to increase the loadtimes.

However whenever I get into the main menu I have a few seconds before the game freezes. Audio keeps working and I can move the mouse but everything else is frozen. Only way out is to alt+tab out and kill it in Steam.

All other games seem to work fine.

I've tried Proton version: 9, 10, Experimental, GE 10.3, GE 10.13.

CPU: Xeon 2697 V3 Ram: 128 GB GPU: Nvidia GTX 1080, driver 580.65.06

Any ideas on why this happens?

I'm not sure what caused it. I'm in the alien Zeta part if that helps at all. I'm using a Ryzen 3700x, 32gb ram, 2 WD Black M.2 SSDs, one for Linux, one for Windows. MSI 2060 Super 12gb, Nvidia 575 open driver through Mint's driver installer.

Steps I've taken. 1. Did a file check with Steam and all files are fine. 2. Changed from the 550 to the 575 open driver. 3. Changed to Proton Expermiental. 4. I decided to try running under Plasma instead of Cinnamon, and had better results. But still having crashes like crazy now.

I also remembered the multicore or multithread fix, and that helped a little bit. But everything was fine until this week. An occasional crash, but nothing life changing. Secure boot is turned off if that helps.

Actually, I did get internet this week. I was using my phone to tether everything until very recently. I signed on with Verizon for home internet ($35/month for 3 years LOCKED RATE!!), but that shouldn't affect Fallout.

So I finally made the switch to the penguin, and I'm using bazzite os. When I try to play non steam games through steam they just load for a couple of seconds and then they just don't launch. I imported them into steam and forced them to launch with proton, and nothing happened. Any one got any ideas? And also when I try and play some games I get this message "choose a wineprefix to run (the game)" Does anyone know how to do it?

I have a 144Hz display and my RTX 2080 is starting to show its age. I have games installed via a number of different ways. A lot of them native Linux games from Steam/GOG, a lot of them via Proton.

On Windows I'm used to just going to the NVIDIA Control Panel and being able to set the exact frame rate I want on a game-by-game basis. Is there anything similar like this on Linux? For what it's worth I'm on Fedora 42/GNOME 48 under Wayland.

It's called voicewave, and I'm currently running it in bottles via the soda runner. I know that from me switching from windows I kinda missed Voicemod, and couldn't get it to install in any WINE runner I tried. But this. Just. Worked

Granted, I had to hunt for the exe in the bottle to add a shortcut, and the window is buggy if moved about in labwc (gamescope might fix that) but one issue I can see being bypassed easily is that the driver for using the voice in discord and whatnot doesn't install, but I think if you were to setup a virtual output and pipe that output into a virtual input you could get around it. Though you'd need to keep "hear myself" turned on.

I'll leave a link here if anyone wants to reproduce what I did: https://multimedia.easeus.com/ Haven't tested if the upgrade functionality works or not, but considering the browser opens fine upon install (if you have xdg portals working) it should

This happened a bit ago but there still hasn't been any solution. I bought this game on launch but switched to linux about a year ago. All I did was launch the game and I was met with this ban. I submit an appeal and have contacted activision multiple times since, but they have very strongly refused to do anything about it. I have lost hundreds of hours, way too much money than I would care to admit, and all for what? I just wanted to see if the game could run. How should I have knows that this would happen? Many people have said, oh why didn't you check protonDB or areweanticheat? I didn't check that because they hadn't had an update in a long time. They only way those can update is if people (like me) test it. Anyway, I don't expect any of you to be able to do anything about this, but I feel it's important that people know what's going on.This happened a bit ago but there still hasn't been any solution.

Been wanting to do this for a while, ever since I saw how the steam deck handled Linux gaming while also having a good desktop mode

I'm running an Nvidia card, RTX 3080, and I'm not programmer or power user, I just want to get out of the Microsoft ecosystem

So I'll need a simple to use, difficult to break os, that works with my card and proton, that won't need major tweaking to work

Does pop os cover that or are there better options?

My dumb ass just realized that I have a FreeSync monitor compatible with NVIDIA GPU's G-Sync features, and I'm sure being able to take some of the load off the GPU and put it on my monitor would help.

I know there's a setting in dconf editor that enables a VRR option. Is it as easy as that?

I tried installing windows 10 on my lap and my disk just couldnt handle it, so i tried linux for the first time, i tried ubuntu, they say its the fastest its installing rn but its going very nice, i want to try minecraft but im not going to use it for 1 day so im a bit impatient, i had windows 7 before and it used to run at 30fps on servers (lowest graphics and res) could i go more than that? My friends pcs are the same quality so maybe i could reccomend linux so they can play more smoothly

However mouse input feels off , i have turned off mouse accel in pointer settings. It is noticeable in aimlabs/kovaaks as well. Any other setting i should be changing?

I play old ps3 era games on my Acer laptop and I tinkered with something in the bottle for the games and now the games don't allow me to change the resolution above 1080p. My laptop's display is 1080p but I liked the added sharpness.

I've recently installed steam for linux on my pc, which is a dual boot w/ windows 10 and arch, and have selected the directory where all my games are installed from on windows as the default storage location in the linux client. Despite this, the client still says none of the games are installed, despite them being situated in the folder I specified. How do I get steam to acknowledge that the games are installed?

It only fixes when I put 60hz refresh rate in my monitor (I normally have 144hz) it caps the fps at 60 but even though it feels smoother it also feels less responsive and with a lot of latency for some reason, I also tried installing a mod that fixes the fps but tbh I have no idea how to install nexus mods on fallout 4 on Linux and it also doesn't even let me download anything from the nexus webpage which makes no sense but duh, any help?

Since I'm kind of a noob, I've been working everything through the GUI, not the command line. That may or may not be relevant. This is what I've done:

I created a new 'applications' bottle.

I installed the dependencies for the program (dotnet481 and dotnet8). Since I can't find dotnet8 listed in the dependencies tab, I downloaded it from the Windows site and installed it through the 'run executable' button in the bottle. To be specific, this is the exact file I installed; ".NET 8.0 Desktop Runtime (v8.0.19) - Windows x64 Installer."

Then I find the BG3MM .exe and try to run it. It says it's launching, but then nothing happens. I don't even receive an error of any kind. I've tried restarting bottles but that didn't help.

Sorry if I'm making some rookie mistakes. I hate the thought of wasting your time.
