Hello everyone !

I wanted to try War Thunder on Linux, and it works perfectly well on my setup .
My only problem is ... I like to play War Thunder with some mods (GuP voices and skins), i have been doing this for years, but it seems mods don't work on native Linux Steam ... So i tried several Proton tools, but they all end up the same way ...
The game launches, mods seem to work fine, but when i launch a game (even test drive), the game crashes ...
Does anyone had this issue ?

The game is perfectly playable without those, but it doesn't feel the same ...

Also, i install the mods the same way i do on Windows, and maybe that's not the correct way to do it on Linux (don't know ...)
I have an i7-7700k CPU

24G RAM

OC RTX3050 (8G)

Thanks

Hi I'm playing with Bazzite for home made steam machine in my living room

So as I use it 99% from the couch with my controller this is a very important issue to me Also because I've started using Unifydeck and there's the install button that only works clicking it with the mouse

I used to use it but now the steam button + rt it's not working anymore I can still move the mouse using steam button + analog right but no luck with the click

Any help? Thank you in advance for your help 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I am currently having issues with steam creating libraries on Zorin OS. I enjoyed Zorin on my laptop so I figured I would make the switch to desktop. Ive gone full clean install including my nvme and hard disk drives that I specifically use for games.

Steam is not allowing me to create a library on the nvme drive. It just wont. I have an event on a game in four hours that I promised I would be a part of (friend is a twitch streamer) and I'd really like to get this going ASAP!

Any help would be appreciated

I like to monitor my temps in the background while I game. I found an application called Psensor that has the min/max/current values for few sensors, but even after running sensors detect it only shows tctl, tdie, Ram usage, cpu usage, gpu core, hotspot, and vram. I used OCT to do some benchmarking and it has far more sensors showing. Is there anything that will show all of them in a table with min/max/current and possibly average?

If you're like me and usually install Optiscaler in most of your games, be aware that it might tank the performance in some games.

On my system I was having problems with both Alan Wake 2 and Spider man 2 with very bad performance and constant stuttering I initially suspected Optiscaler, but disabling upscaling didn't change anything so I though it might be something else, until I decided to remove Optiscaler completely from those games and all the problems were gone, install again and back to low fps and stuttering even without any processing being done by Optiscaler, just being installed causes the game to lag.

Spider man supports dll replacement so it's just better to do that, Alan Wake doesn't so you're stuck with FSR2 there.

Is there any way to mod games on Linux? If so, what are some good apps to do it or maybe good videos that explain how to do it for people like me who never tried modding a game on Linux?

Over the holidays, I installed Linux to try it out. I initially went with regular Ubuntu, but while the live environment launched fine, the installer would not start. After that, I switched to Kubuntu, which installed without issues.

Positives

• Installation (once on Kubuntu) was straightforward.
• Everything generally worked.
• All the games I play installed and launched fine.
• Discord screen sharing worked.
• Drivers mostly worked — some faffing around with NVIDIA, but nothing unexpected.
• KDE is genuinely very nice. Clean, flexible, and pleasant to use.

Death by a thousand small cuts

None of these were dealbreakers on their own, but together they added up:

• Discord push-to-talk was unreliable. Sometimes it worked, other times it didn’t. A few times, I was talking, got no response, and realised PTT hadn’t activated again. This varied by game.
• Discord overlay simply does not work.
• Some odd audio behaviour: game audio was fine, but if a Proton game was running and I opened something like YouTube, the audio would stutter every second, as if it was constantly resetting.
• Too many indirect launchers. Steam was fine, but Battle.net needs its own launcher, FFXIV has another, etc. It all works, but it feels clunkier than on Windows.
• Lack of overall polish. KDE itself is great, but many applications and system utilities feel inconsistent or rough around the edges.
• Some of the apps I'm used to simply don't have Linux versions (e.g. Whatsapp)

Overall

I was honestly impressed with how far things have come compared to a few years ago. For me, though, Windows still wins for the moment. However, I do think Linux is getting very close, and all the issues I mentioned will likely be sorted out sooner rather than later.

If anyone is running 6.18.x with RDNA3 (or newer), can you share your impressions?

There have been reports of crashing under load and other issues with newer AMD cards on kernel versions after 6.17, but I can't tell how widespread they are. Some of them are in the context of ROCm, but gaming seems affected too.

Fedora just pushed 6.18.3 to updates and I'm wondering if it's better to wait. I have a stable setup with 6.17.12 and don't want to update if there are known issues.

Ok I don’t see this get mentioned but one thing I really noticed switching back to Linux and using Bazzite KDE for my Nvidia build is how much faster alt tabbing in and out of games is.

On Windows 11 if I alt tabbed the screen would go black and take a good 10 - 15 seconds to get me to the desktop. This is on full screen. On borderless I had issues where the game would stay frozen for long time when trying to alt tab the game back open.

I’ve no idea what Linux does differently to fix this but it’s so much better. I’m assuming every game even non supported get the borderless treatment or the way it outputs it is way more efficient than Windows.

You normally hear Windows just works especially for Nvidia users but in my case Linux is just outright better here.

I alt tab all the time while gaming so this has been a game changer!

Moved to Linux full time recently and I'm playing a lot of overwatch 2 ATM but I noticed I'm getting 70fps less than what I was getting on windows.

I'm running the latest protonGE (on Wayland native), with lutris, on the battle.net version of overwatch and my kernel is cachyos-bore kernel (I also tested zen too but it has the same issue).

I'm still getting around 300fps but I expected bit better especially since other games in my library run practically 1:1 with windows.

I should also mention I'm using an nvidia GPU but my girlfriend's PC with an amd GPU has the same problem.

Anyone else having the same fps discrepancy between operating systems?
