Proton: Low dpi and tiny cursor

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 5 Stunden 42 Minuten

hello,

i'm into linux gaming quite a while now and almost everything is working great for me. but one thing i just don't get working properly: the dpi of windows windows.
for example wit protproton i open "winecfg" via the gui and there i change the dpi under "graphics". but it does not apply. the next time i open a laucher or some other not-fullscreen window it is really tiny and almost impossible to read. and with that comes that the mouse curser is super tiny aswell.
somebody has a solution for that?

Discrete video card error in ElyPrismLauncher

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 6 Stunden 59 Minuten

When I try to use a discrete graphics card in ElyPrismLauncher instead of Minecraft, I see this. Using Zink only produces errors. I hear sound, but I can't see Minecraft. I searched the internet for a long time for a solution, but I still haven't found one.

Rome 2 on Linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 8 Stunden 9 Minuten

I've heard a long time ago that Rome 2 is notoriously only supported on Windows, but recently as I have converted to Linux and wanted to play it with my friend, I wanted to put this rumour to the test.

And so, my Rome 2 installation cannot run on Linux, I've tried all the proton versions through Steam but to no avail, even in Lutris it crashes on startup. Is this solvable at all or am I just fated to only run it on Windows?
I use Arch btw.

Can't launch Rockstar Launcher/GTA 4 on Lutris with Proton

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 8 Stunden 22 Minuten

I have installed GTA 4 on Lutris. The game runs fine using Wine as a runner but when I switch the runner to Proton, Rockstar Games Launcher does not start. It just gets stuck on the loading screen which seems like a network issue. I have tried different versions of Proton (including G.E.) but I get the same issue. Can someone guide me on how to troubleshoot this? Thanks.

For those having Arknights endfield crash after Afking or just long play sessions

Reddit Linux_Gaming - vor 8 Stunden 44 Minuten

I've been having this problem since Yvonne's quest last month and it was driving me crazy.

Seeing that most people that play this game use my setup, that being dw proton 14-16 installed with heroic and played through there or steam, I thought it would be helpful to share this somewhere as I don't know about a place like protondb for non steam games.

I'm not really knowledgeable about gaming on linux, I just started myself, but I've been able to pinpoint the crashes to either Fsync or Esync as I saw them pop out a lot in crash logs. After searching a bit I came across this issue in the dwproton repository and it basically solved my issue instantly, as I've been able to play without crashing for way longer than the time the usual crashes tend to happen.

So basically it seems like

Enabling the ntsync module with sudo modprobe ntsync or with echo ntsync | sudo tee /etc/modules-load.d/ntsync.conf and rebooting to enable it permanently.

Pretty much solves the issue as it does seem like the usual setup to be able to play AK:E doesn't enable it as a default. I suspect that playing without Fsync or Esync also avoids crashes but it gets so laggy I don't think is really worth it.

So basically that's it! I just wanted to share the fix that worked for me in Arch since it has a really annoying thing to deal with the last few days
