Is there an easy way to underclock Nvidia

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14. Mai 2024 - 08:32

I notice nvidia-settings powermizer only has Adaptive or Performance. Is there an easy way like a gui overclock tool, to limit Performance Level or Max frequency ?

PC will be moved into a solar powered van for a while it would be nice to be able to limit it's gpu frequency in some situations.

8Bitdo Ultimate C (Switch ver) not working

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14. Mai 2024 - 06:59

Still sort of a beginner to Linux and am currently using Linux Mint 21.3 Mate ver with the 6.5.0-35-generic kernel.

I thought this controller would just function as a normal Switch controller and it works fine on Windows with Steam (which I'm not that concerned with at the moment) but I've done stuff like getting HID-Nintendo, Joycond, Joycond-cemuhook and none of them work. Steam doesn't detect any controller nor do my emulators like Duckstation, MelonDS and Dolphin detect it. It can actually connect itself via Bluetooth and USB and is shown as "Pro Controller" but the problem is that it just doesn't give any input at all. It acts like it's connected and everything but just nothing.

Does anyone know if 8Bitdo's Switch Controllers or controllers in Switch mode have some issues when connecting to Linux? Is this because 8Bitdo uses their own drivers or something?

Thanks for any clarification. I was very disappointed because I really admire the design of the controller and it feels very good in my hands.

Vampire Masquerade Redemption: Help request.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14. Mai 2024 - 06:21

Very old title. Playing it for the first time. This is a GoG game on POP!_OS with a Wine installation.

I'm having trouble with identifying "Item Not Indentified" in the game. I don't see a discipline for identifying them and the scroll of "spirit touch??" doesn't seem to do anything. I haven't found a merchant yet that identifies them, except the lady who sells the scrolls that I can't make work.

Along those lines. I have not been able make the awaken scrolls do anything, when one my toothy followers passes out & runs out of health.

Next question: Are there any mods, that work on this game with my OS? I'm most interested in being able to respawn the loot caches and/or monsters.
I've been having a hell of a time with the monsters in Josef's tunnels and I'm out of money for buying things and spent all the XP points.
Any suggestions on build or play, for the 3 vampires that I have at this point would be great also. I'm still only on my 6th quest. 1st level of Josef's tunnels in "Relieve the Reliquary"

Deleted Windows 11 and moved to Arch

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14. Mai 2024 - 04:26

Hey all. I've been following linux for a while, tried committing to it a couple times and never fully committed, but I gave in to my compulsive thoughts and wiped my windows install and installed arch! The arch wiki was a great guide and I definitely had someone helping me through the install lol, but its done now and I'm rocking KDE! I've been following linux news and peeping this sub for a while so hopefully this is a fun experience :)

I did have an issue though. I installed arch to my 500G Sata SSD but I also have a 2TB nvme in my system that I specifically want to install games too. I thought I configured the drive correctly in the KDE partition manager but when I tried installing games to it with steam, it sees the drive as an "external drive" and spits back a "disk write error".

Does anyone have experience with installing an extra storage drive in their system and know the best way to do this? I'm still a bit of a noob but if anyone has any tips/pointers or maybe knows where to direct me in the arch wiki that'd be great :)

Strange CS2 mouse behavior

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14. Mai 2024 - 04:10

Trying out Linux for gaming. So far every single player game I've tried works great. And Halo MCC has given me no grief with regards to weird issues. However my favorite FPS has been a bit of an annoyance to get working right. I think I've resolved the Graphics stuttery-ness that I was having with the launch options in this post(https://www.reddit.com/r/linux\_gaming/comments/wdjpq2/csgo\_launch\_options\_for\_amd\_hardware/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button)

However I am still having weird issues that I haven't seen documented else where. I would like to see if any of you have experienced similar issues, before going through the trouble of getting some input capture software so I can dig down into what the cause is.

There are two main issue's both regarding the mouse.

Seemingly at random I switch to Pistol, I am not using the scroll wheel on the mouse nor am I pressing 2 on the keyboard.

Also seemingly at random (AKA the worst time) I will fire, and nothing will happen, and I need to unpress the Lmb and repress it. Sometimes this lasts a few seconds, and I'll be furiously clicking away aiming at someone, or swing a corner and try to spray only to stand there with my dick in my hand, and just watch them own me. This is very frustrating (except when I have it happen and I still win the fight then, the handicap is just a ego boost) and I would like to find a resolution before I continue with my Premier grind.

I do have two monitors so I thought that that could've been the cause. But I do not see the cursor move to the other monitor, but maybe it is and is just invisible.

I do have the game on full screen, but even then when in menus It doesn't capture the mouse, and I can freely switch between monitors, which did not happen on windows.

Also mods I didn't read a single bit of your rules so feel free to remove this and tell me to go fuck myself if this type of post isn't allowed :)

Stop steam from creating desktop icons by default?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 14. Mai 2024 - 03:41

I don't believe it used to, but Steam now automatically creates desktop icons for games when I install them. Even turning off the checkboxes and fully installing a game, the next game I try to install has them ticked again

Hellos, I'm using arch in my systems and Crash: It's about time has been... crashing...

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 13. Mai 2024 - 23:21

I got 3 systems
Ryzen CPUs (3600, 5800X3D), and a intel Tiger lake 1135g5
1 has a Geforce 4080
1 has a Radeon 6700XT
1 has the iGPU Xe

oddly enough it is the Radeon system on linux giving me a rough time. when the game launches it crashes with a "FATAL ERROR" message and boots me out to the desktop.

It worked fine on a Bazzite install, but I prefer arch since I've gotten extremely comfortable with it already running it in other multiple systems.

Anyone here has had luck running Crash 4 on a RDNA2 system?
I run CachyOS, it's been absolutely flawless in everything else, just this particular game on this particular system, with this particular GPU (Radeon 6700XT)

A bit of a PSA in regard to Lampray MM for BG3

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 13. Mai 2024 - 23:10

So, I've been on a hot journey to get mods to work with BG3. I initially started trying to get BG3MM to work with Lutris, but the best I could do was get the MM to run, but not load or export mods. Then, I discovered Lampray with some help from this sub. After several hours worth of work and getting most of my mods redownloaded, I finally figured out how to get them to load successfully.

So, here's the PSA part:

When you run Lampray and set the folder locations, you might think you need to start at /home/.steam/etc... Even though this does get you to the appropriate folders, they're actually not the correct folders. I discovered the folders Lampray needs are the same folders Steam uses when you right-click > Manage > Browse Local Files from within Steam. These locations have you start from /home/.local/share/steam/etc.

I only discovered this by trial and error. The other location does work, but not 100%. Lampray would show all the mods getting loaded, but BG3 wouldn't use them all. Not until I pointed Lampray to the same folder locations accessed via Steam.

So, you want: home/.local/share/steam/steamapps/...

Not: home/.steam/steam/steamspp/...

I hope this helps clarify things for others who are wanting to mod the heck out of BG3, too!
