This post outlines my exact problem with the game, but its for ASE. I've tried switching proton versions from experimental down to 8.0-5 and also playing around with mod configurations etc.

This is the start of the proton log:

====================== Proton: 1714418284 proton-9.0-1 SteamGameId: 346110 Command: ['/home/joemama/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/ARK/ShooterGame/Binaries/Win64/ShooterGame_BE.exe'] Options: {'forcelgadd'} depot: 0.20240415.84603 pressure-vessel: 0.20240415.0 scout scripts: 0.20240415.0 sniper: 0.20240415.84603 sniper 0.20240415.84603 Kernel: Linux 6.8.9-arch1-2 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue, 07 May 2024 21:35:54 +0000 x86_64 Language: LC_ALL None, LC_MESSAGES None, LC_CTYPE None Effective WINEDEBUG: +timestamp,+pid,+tid,+seh,+unwind,+threadname,+debugstr,+loaddll,+mscoree ======================

and from then on its a few errors and dumps, followed by

2363.341:0138:0248:fixme:dbghelp_msc:codeview_snarf nested function 2363.341:0138:0248:fixme:dbghelp_msc:codeview_create_inline_site Couldn't find type 80100002 in IPI stream

To me it seems as if this has been kicked off by a software error since both my storage and RAM is good, and this happens consistently with this game in particular. Around line 19500 is where it starts in the log

I'd be thankful for any insight ppl can provide!!

Since a few days some games (CS2, Apex Legends, No Man's Sky and Townscaper just to name a few) won't start properly anymore through Steam. While in CS2 I am able to start the game it crashes just before finishing the startup animation. It is somewhat similar with Apex and the other games crashing after starting the "welcome menu" just after the boot animation. Does someone know what might be causing this or is experiencing similar issues?

I'm on Arch with an NVidia RTX 3060 mobile, Intel core i7 3.6ghz.

Games that this occurs with are Fallout 3, Fallout 4, GTA 3, GTA San Andreas, Let it Die, RetroArch, and Celeste. These are all the games I have installed through steam. This doesn't happen with games I've installed and run with Lutris. I've tried using Proton experimental, 9.0-1, 8.0-5 and 6.3-8, all have the same behavior. Other versions of Proton do not work for all or some of those games. This has only started happening within the last week.

Using GNOME Wayland primarily, but I've also tried and confirmed that the behavior is the same GNOME on Xorg, Xfce4, Cinnamon and Openbox.

When in game, if I use the brightness or volume control buttons on my keyboard, or try to alt-tab to another window, the game will stop receiving/responding to keyboard input. Alt-tabs fail about 80% of the time and do not switch to another window or bring up the window switcher menu. I cannot Alt-F4 to close the game, or use the super key to open whatever menu might appear for whichever DE/WM.

I can switch TTYs and kill the game or Steam that way, but the DE/WM does not become responsive again, and forcing a reboot by holding the power button on the machine results in corruption to the file system on root partition, which has been able to be repaired by fsck, though I'd like to not try that again.

I've rolled back my system to every snapshot I have saved (I make a snapshot before everyone pacman update and keep up to 15 of them, so usually they span 15 days), but the behavior stays the same, probably because steam updates when launched.

I can just not use the brightness and volume buttons, and not Alt-Tab out of the game and everything goes fine. Nothing crashes while playing. It's just really annoying to have to quit out of the game to adjust volume or do something else for 30 seconds before launching the game again.

Is anyone else seeing this behavior? Anyone have a fix for this? I don't even really know where to start trying to fix it, but it seems like it's a problem with Steam itself, considering that it happens on Wayland and Xorg and across multiple DE/WMs.

I don't care about whatever "never had issues with nvidia on linux" grifters tell you

NVIDIA has always been openly hostile towards Linux and they never made a move to help us unless they got a buck off of it in some way

Made a new build with an AMD Radeon RX 6800 XT and AMD Ryzen 5 5600X

Its a day and night kind of difference, "had some problems but nothing major" turn into "i never had any problems use it as you see fit"

AMD drivers are also included in-kernel and AMD is set to absolutely annihilate NVIDIA in the next years

\o/ Dear community, please celebrate with me! \o/

I've been using my Desktop as a dual boot system with Ubuntu 22.04 and Windows 10 for quite a number of years. Work was strictly confined to Ubuntu, gaming was strictly confined to Windows 10. And so it was meant to be forever. But then I got a Steam Deck for Christmas 2023 and this changed my life so much, it's not even funny.

I was totally blown away that all of this was working under Linux. I couldn't believe it because I tended to think that I was quite well-informed on the topic of PC gaming. Seeing the Steam Deck in action, however, was like discovering a hidden layer of reality that I never had managed to detect because Digital Foundry had never mentioned it before. That made me think. If it worked that well on that little Steam Deck, it might also work quite well on my gaming rig? And so over Christmas, I slowly began adapting my Ubuntu system to be ready for gaming primetime.

I began by

• installing more up-to-date Nvidia drivers, updating the Kernel and configuring them correctly
• quarantining my work-related stuff so gaming would not interfere (still easily accessible in a few clicks though)
• installing Steam, gamemode, MangoHud, some version of gamescope, Heroic launcher
• getting familiar with Wine and Proton, alternative engines via Luxtorpeda, etc.
• and eventually moving over my games one game/disk at a time

After the first couple of success stories, I also somehow began to rediscover Linux itself, spend some time learning what was going on under the hood, customizing Ubuntu to my heart's content and really make it my own. This I would never have done if I had kept it just as a "get my work done" system. I was so much happier simply turning this thing on, it's kind of ridiculous.

Finally, about one month in, I was pretty much happy with gaming (and of course working) on Linux. The only thing I hadn't tested was VR, and out of maybe a few dozen non-VR games, only 2 of them did not work (looking at you Flashpoint Operations Red Storm and Flashpoint Operations Southern Storm). I finally reshuffled all my data on my disks to run on ext4 partitions (I had originally started by simply mounting my NTFS gaming partitions, which worked quite well all things considered). All I kept where two remaining Windows 10 partitions (system + recovery) - just in case I needed them.

I continued testing more and more games, buying and playing also new games on Steam after a quick check on protondb.com, and after testing what must have been more than 150 games over a number of weeks I was in general a happy camper. Aside from the two games mentioned above I did come across a few problematic cases, but eventually I managed to get every single one of those running without any huge problems as well.

So now it's been almost half a year and today I realized: I haven't booted my Windows system in more than 2 months. So those 2 games that didn't work turned out not to be a decisive factor. I still haven't tested VR with my Quest 3, but I'm pretty sure that stuff will work eventually and I can wait until that day comes. And then I thought about some of the older games I managed to get running on Linux. Things like Drakan and Nascar Racing 4 and Dangerous Waters and Sentinel Returns and Swat 4 and Messiah and quite a few other old things that I had lying around on a disc somewhere and which totally would not run without any tinkering on Windows as well.

And so I said: good enough, what am I waiting for? I finally deleted the Windows 10 partitions for good, reclaimed that space for my system and now I am running Ubuntu exclusively. It feels amazing!
I just wanted to share my little story, maybe it helps to motivate some people to also try and get gaming on Linux set-up properly. And I wanted to thank everyone in this community. It was such a valuable resource when I was learning all the ins and outs or hit some snag that I finally managed to overcome thanks to the concentrated knowledge of all you people.

Best regards,

Hello guys!

I have just switched from linux mint to pop os. Yesterday when i reinstall all games from steam and start euro truck simulator 2, i got a lot of stuttering in game. Tried with opengl, directx11 and native vulkan without progress. Tried even with cs2 and same result a lot of stuttering. I have nvidia drivers from pop shop driver 550.

I love pop os DE and want to go long with it. Anyone have any suggestions?

Specs: Amd Ryzen 5 5500 32GB Ram Nvidia RTX 3060

Note: i have same thread on PopOs reddit also. :) But i am open to any help.

I occasionally play Civ V (with Lekmod) with friends, but I only get around 30 fps in game, and lower if I zoom in. I suspect the game can't see my graphics card so is using integrated graphics. Before lowering my resolution and graphics settings it was practically unplayable at around 10-15 fps.

Does anyone have ideas as to how I could improve my fps? I was able to get above 100 fps when testing on windows.

Details: Tuxedo OS 3 (Ubuntu-based, KDE Plasma 6, Wayland), 13th gen Intel i5, NVIDIA RTX 4060 (whatever version of it they put in laptops) with proprietary drivers.

I have tried proton 9, experimental, and some GE versions and found no real difference in performance between them. The problem originally started on plasma 5 and has persisted through the upgrade to plasma 6. I've also tried messing with the nvidia prime settings to little success.

Final Fantasy developer Square Enix have released their Financial Results for the end of the Japanese financial year, and it seems they're going through a big change in their strategy.

If you're interested, you could watch my first video and tell me what I could do better.

https://youtu.be/bkSTzDtzyPA?si=j1M-FrsVojouXJmY

• Is my English good enough? (I'm not a native speaker)
• Is the video even interesting?
• What could I improve

More videos about Linux gaming on a cheap Optiplex and a 1st gen Surface Go are coming soon. I would like to use your feedback to improve these upcoming videos.

Thanks 🐧

Hello everyone!

I recently bought a Quest 2 and I would like to ask how is VR on Linux. I’m currently running Win11 and I would move to Arch, that’s why it’s in the title.

I have a Ryzen 5 5600G, 32GB of RAM, and an RX 7600

How difficult is it to set it up and how is performance?

Anything major I should know about?

Thanks in advance!

I installed Battle.net using Lutris, then got Hearthstone from there.

Game seemingly works fine, but the Game Menu (⚙️ button) doesn't have an Options choice.

Manually changing options.txt (C:\users\NAME\AppData\Local\Blizzard\Hearthstone\options.txt) doesn't work because the file gets reset on every launch even if it's set to read-only.

Options button should be between Sign Up & Skip Apprentice

Since I almost entirely use a desktop or Steam Deck, I don't follow the laptop world too closely but the new upgradeable LPCAMM2 RAM for laptops sounds really awesome.

Recently i wanted to play Fallout 4 and it worked... perfectly; actually, it was completely seamless. I just ran it through Steam without any issues. Then I wanted to add mods, and while it was a bit difficult to get steam to cooperate with my mod manager, I was alright with it because modding is usually a decent amount of work either way. Then suddenly, after a few days of playing, it started randomly crashing.

I ended up spending a whole day trying and failing to fix it. Could I have fixed it eventually? Probably. I've used Linux for many years now, I love tinkering and would certainly consider myself quite technical, so with enough time I might have been able to, but I don't want to do that; I just want to play my game. So I gave in and moved my files over to the Windows partition that I still keep around after all this time and it worked without any issues.

I have been playing games on Linux without major issues for quite some time, but this experience has made me uncomfortable. It kind of ruined my day, and now thinking back on it, I remember several other times when I wanted to play a game and I needed to apply some fix. Even if it just took a few minutes, it still really dragged that day down. And now I worry that there will be some other game that will randomly stop working and require fixing, or maybe some game will come out that I want to play but won't be able to.

I'm not abandoning Linux, especially since I need it for development, but most likely I will move my main PC to using Windows+WSL and using Linux on my laptop. Simply for the peace of mind of knowing that any games I want to play will just work and to avoid the hassle of dual booting.

I will finally get to the point. I think that for a lot of people, Linux gaming will never be good enough; even if 99.9% of games work, that 0.1% will be a dealbreaker. Or even if all games work that one time when you come home and just want to play a game only for the game to randomly decide not to work will be a dealbreaker. Basically, unless we get proper Linux native souport for all games or Wine becomes a completely seamless experience, it simply won't be good enough for most people. Both of those things are, of course, never going to happen. All in all, I think that's kind of sad.

Anyway, I'm not sure why i wanted to make this post, i guess I'm just kind of annoyed that im going to start using Windows again.

I ran God of War v1.0.12 using Proton Experimental, it is running noticeably worse compared to worse. Lower Frame Rates & lot of stuttering.

In ProtonDB, someone suggested to add the following boot parameter:

split_lock_detect=off

Adding the parameter didn't improved any performance in my case.

Please suggest how can I fix it?

I'm on a potato-tier PC, so can it be the overhead of not running the game natively?

System Info:

• OS: Debian GNU/Linux 12 (bookworm) x86_64
• Kernel 6.1.0-21-amd64
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 3550H with Radeon Vega Mobile Gfx (8) @ 2.100GHz
• GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650 Mobile / Max-Q
• RAM: 8 GB

Thanks in Advance!

Sorry for asking this question, but it's one of those things I don't even know how to google for.

I have a Linux box on my office, with latest Ubuntu LTS, I didn't do anything fancy to it, just testing out how viable it's on long term swap my main gaming pc to Linux. This box connects via HDMI to a monitor, which has a laptop connected to the display port. Whenever I swap the monitor's input so I can look at something on the laptop, when I swap back WoW and battle.net have closed with no error message.

On the "show logs" option in lutris I can see this:

WARNING: radv is not a conformant Vulkan implementation, testing use only. X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 131 (XInputExtension) Minor opcode of failed request: 28 (X_GetDeviceButtonMapping) Serial number of failed request: 222 Current serial number in output stream: 222 X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 131 (XInputExtension) Minor opcode of failed request: 28 (X_GetDeviceButtonMapping) Serial number of failed request: 5290 Current serial number in output stream: 5290 X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 131 (XInputExtension) Minor opcode of failed request: 28 (X_GetDeviceButtonMapping) Serial number of failed request: 205 Current serial number in output stream: 205 X Error of failed request: BadMatch (invalid parameter attributes) Major opcode of failed request: 131 (XInputExtension) Minor opcode of failed request: 28 (X_GetDeviceButtonMapping) Serial number of failed request: 205 Current serial number in output stream: 205 wine client error:170: write: Bad file descriptor wine client error:278: write: Bad file descriptor WARNING: radv is not a conformant Vulkan implementation, testing use only.

Can someone kindly point me in the right direction? Thank you.

There's been a bit of a stir recently with the release of the Stellaris: The Machine Age DLC, as Paradox Interactive put up an AI statement on Steam that the developers have now attempted to give more info on.

I'm looking to upgrade from a 1080Ti to a 7900XTX and someone told me that if it's idle and goes into power-saving mode, it'll crash and require a hard reset of the system.

Is this true? I've been looking into it and there's reports of several problems that require you to force it to run in high-power mode. Given how much this sub fanboys for AMD, I'd think someone would have mentioned this by now. It's not the end of the world but it's pretty annoying to be drawing 100W idle.

There's also supposedly another crash that can happen if you're above 80% VRAM usage which might be fixed in a future kernel update, but that's more reasonable for this sub to not mention, since it's only really going to be a problem for productivity/AI workloads.

​

Is there anything else I'm missing? (other than the HDMI 2.1 issue ofc)
