Playing assassin creed blackflag on my laptop but the game randomly drops from 60 fps to 50 and 40 and like this so I want a frame limiter with nice frame pacing so that I could cap the fps at 30. I'm new to linux so please guide me on how to do it if you do comment. Also I'm getting more fps in ac blackflag compared to windows!!! W, also I'm running the game via add non steam games option in the steam launcher so I'd need commandlines for steam. Another question: is using steam commandline better for this stuff or from the original config files?

Thanks

If non native x86 windows games will be supported on ARM with proton 11. What about native Linux x86 games on ARM will they use a separate FEX compatibility thing. or they will use proton 11 but only the FEX part be used when playing native games.

By the way I don't own any arm hardware and don't intend to for the foreseeable future. :)

hi all , i was wondering if anyone know how to get the vader 4 pro's c/z buttons working outside of steam?

i'm on nobara 43 kde and while the controller works fine as a modern xbox style controller i can't seem to get the c/z and m1-4 buttons to show as working in the system settings. i actually bought the controller about a year ago thinking it'd be perfect for xemu since the c/z buttons are in the same spot as the og xbox S controller's black and white buttons but i've never gotten it to work for it.

the buttons Do work inside of steam and gamepad tester in browser shows them functioning just fine. antimicroX recognizes the m1-4 buttons working , but not the c/z at all.

i've tried adding 60-steam-input.rules off of a github to my udev rules already as well as adding

# Vader 4 Pro

KERNEL=="hidraw*", ATTRS{idVendor}=="04b4", ATTRS{idProduct}=="2412", MODE="0660", TAG+="uaccess"

after cross referencing it to make sure its correct looking at lsusb in the terminal.

and yes its in direct input mode.

TLDR: how do i get the c/z buttons working in things outside of steam? they're not showing as working in kde settings

Hello, i have been using linux mint for over 6 months now, although I still have windows 10 through dual boot.

The experience has been amazing, and I am never going to go back.

I was never a great fan of PC gaming, and would hardly be classified as a casual gamer even with my ps4 games.

After making some research, I was able to run games on linux through lutris and Proton ge.

I played max Payne 3, and it was running identically to windows, so I know the problem is not with the os or lutris.

I later installed GTA4 through fitgirl repacks, I played it for a while and the experience was bumpy to say the least ( the game had a lot of stuttering and occasionally freezed).

After a lot of random mindling with lutris settings for the game, the game actually ran very well for a while.

Then while trying to add the fusion fix mod, I accidently ruined the game files, so I reinstalled expecting it to play the same, but it did not, I was finally able to run the game with fusionfix and it ran well for a while as well.

From there the game would run well for few minutes then freeze, while the radio sound would be ongoing.

After a lot of AI chatting, I came to realize that I should use wine ge instead of Proton, and also use it with the 10.9.1 version of vxdk, things ran well for a while.

Then I reinstalled the game as the files were accidentally corrupted again.

Without changing anything with the settings the freezing problem came back.

I did every thing one could do, from reinstalling the game from a different source, to reinstalling lutris, to add environmental argument, to using different versions of dxvk etc.

However, the freezing problem would persist or the game would stutter horribly.

At last, I gave up and decided to continue playing on windows ( I was able to retrieve the save file).

Has anybody been able to run the game on lutris successfully ? And if so what is the secret

I playing on an all in one hp pavilion PC with AMD GPU.

On piracy, I am planning to pay for all of those games through steam, but for now I am more interested in experimenting with linux.

Side note: I understand that gta 4 specifically had a lot of problems with its PC version and has a lot of compatability issues.

Holy crap this finally fixed the HDR on my LG27GS95QE. For the longest time i was fighting dim picture or peaks not reaching high enough. Colors ending up weird sometimes. Digging and digging i find an article on KDE's tonemapper not agreeing with Windows applications like games. On W11, all of the HDR data is given through the source. KDE will tone map over this and not be accurate. I set a global environment variable to turn off the tonemapper and let my LG WOLED handle it and have default values in KDE's calibration. Just popping into you tube to watch an HDR video is SO much better. I'm actually getting an impact from the contrast and peaks. There before but weak and not nearly as impactful. IDK why KDE chooses to do this and it may be reliant on the panel and how it tone mapps. This panel, the LG 27GS95QE handles HDR tone mapping internally, aiming for a 4000-nit tone curve by default, but it does not support HGiG (HDR Gaming Interest Group) or source-based tone mapping. I think KDE's mapping was holding back my MLA lenses or something in its curve. Its like i got a new monitor again.

I originally made this for Steam Deck, but the bug and the fix also applies to desktop Linux as well (if you're using Steam), so I figured I post it here:

If you ever wondered why Steam release of Psychonauts 1 (Windows version) running on Steam Deck never displayed Xbox button prompts (despite having official Xbox gamepad support), and kept losing control bindings whenever you re-launch the game, this fix is for you:

https://github.com/jdaniellee/psycho_fix

README also explains what was happening in the game that messed up Xbox inputs, in case you're curious. The fix was only tested with English version and I have no idea if it works on other regional versions. Anyways enjoy!

These are my specs. If for whatever reason the image doesn't load, my specs are:

MSI PRO-B550M-VC-WIFI (Motherboard)

AMD Ryzen 5 5500 (CPU)

Nvidia Geforce RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB (GPU)

SK Hynix 16 (2 x 8 GB; RAM)

Linux will be installed on a Samsung 980 PRO NVMe SSD (1 TB) and for emulation & multimedia they will all be on a backup drive that can be accessed by both Windows and Linux.

I have Windows 11 on my SATA SSD but I'm going to install Linux on my NVMe SSD (I want Linux to be my main OS; Windows for anything Linux can't do) but I'm not actually sure where to start or what distro to choose. I was considering Arch but I'm a beginner, not that I think I won't have any trouble with it but from what I understand it's completely up to you to maintain it, and I don't think I'm up for the task. Mint was another one but folks said it's not really up to date compared to like Ubuntu. Fedora's cool, dunno anything about it though.

As far as games go I don't really think I've played anything past 7th gen with a few exceptions. A good chunk of my games will be played via emulation with most being capped at 6th gen (PS2, GC/Wii, Dreamcast and older). This is my first rig that can support PS3/360 emulation, so I plan to do that as well but idk how often I'd go at it. Of course there are some PC ports such as SM64, SMB Remastered, Sonic 1-3 PC ports, SRB2, etc that I'd like to play, but other than maybe Sparking Zero/GTA V I don't believe these games have anticheat.

Also, whichever distro I choose, what do you recommend I install right away in the terminal (or online) for a better user-friendly experience?

Hi all,

I’m trying to force DLSS 4.5 to use Preset M instead of Preset E in Silent Hill 2 remake running on bazzite.

GPU is an RTX 5080 and I’m using Proton with NVAPI enabled. I’m also running Gamescope with HDR enabled.

My current launch options look like this:

PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 PROTON_ENABLE_NGX_UPDATER=1 PROTON_DLSS_UPGRADE=1 PROTON_DLSS_INDICATOR=1 gamescope -f --hdr-enabled -W 3840 -H 2160 -- %command% -dx12

I’ve also tried OVERRIDE_RENDER_PRESET_SELECTION=13

The issue is that DLSS always reports Preset E in-game, never Preset M. The override doesn’t seem to apply at all.

Any help would be appreciated.

When Covid hit I got into destiny 2 on PC. After 3,000 hours I moved onto 1,800 hours of Helldivers 2 and about 900 of Darktide. Helldivers pushed me to Linux since it runs way better on Linux. I don't play destiny anymore and I can't on Linux (so dumb).

I'm growing a bit tired of Helldivers and darktide and am looking for another multiplayer game that I can play ideally on Linux.

I don't like pvp extraction shooters or anything anime for games (of course I watched dbz though don't worry).

I liked Abyssus but the population is so small I can rarely find teammates.

I've tried to play single player games but I swear they have this empty lonely feeling to them. I did love Alan Wake 3 and am trying to push through the Crysis series, avatar, and I'll do death stranding maybe next.

Any multiplayer games you'd recommend? I have top en hardware so running it on Linux from a performance perspective is not a problem.

Hi r/linux_gaming,

Data post. I run DeckAlly, a handheld gaming database that cross-references Steam Deck Verified status with ProtonDB ratings and live deal prices. Useful for Linux/Deck users who care about compatibility confidence before buying.

Tonight's filter: Verified or Playable status + ProtonDB Platinum or Gold + active price ≤ $20 + discount ≥ 70%.

All Verified, Proton Platinum:

Game Price Off ProtonDB HLTB inbento $0.69 86% Platinum 3.2h Assemble with Care $0.79 90% Platinum ~2h Swordship $0.79 96% Platinum session Wall World $1.04 85% Platinum 11.8h Slaycation Paradise $1.09 93% Platinum 5.9h Sniper Ghost Warrior Contracts $2.35 92% Platinum — Spiritfarer: Farewell Edition $2.99 90% Platinum 25.4h Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective $8.24 73% Platinum 12.1h Resident Evil 2 $8.39 79% Platinum 8.8h

Verified, Proton Gold:

Game Price Off ProtonDB HLTB Human Fall Flat $1.85 91% Gold 6.3h Devil May Cry 5 $6.29 79% Gold 11.2h

The Platinum list is particularly useful for Linux-native distro users (not just Deck) — Platinum means hundreds of community reports with consistent "works perfectly out of the box" verdicts.

Is anyone else experiencing random crashes in Hunt: Showdown recently? This wasn’t happening before. I’m not sure if it started after a recent update or something else, but now the game just crashes at random times, even in the lobby. What’s even worse is that the reconnect feature in the game is broken
