Problems with assassins creed syndicate

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 28. Februar 2026 - 04:13

I installed Ubisoft Connect on the Heroic Games Launcher using Proton Cachyos, and the latter hadn't given me any problems until I played Assassin's Creed. The problem is visual; it runs, but it appears like this, and I don't know how to fix it. I've already tried different versions of Proton, and the ones that open it all look the same.

I use:

CachyOS

Specs:

Intel Core i5 13450HX

Nvidia RTX 5050 Laptop

24 gb Ram

Distorted Graphics and Failure to Launch Steam Games.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 28. Februar 2026 - 03:25

I tried doing my research online, but to no avail. Initially, I was not able to open the games despite using Proton Experimental. I would press play and it wouldnt start. I found the following launch option. It would open the game, but then I would get distorted graphics. I am running the latest Linux Mint. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm lost. Not sure if this helps, but Counter Strike 1.6 launches fine, so it probably has something to do with the GPU settings or driver. Thanks

Need help choosing future GPU.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 28. Februar 2026 - 00:48

Hey everyone, I'm currently facing a bit of a dilemma and could really use some outside perspective.

I'm looking to treat myself to a GPU upgrade and have been doing some research to figure out what would best suit my needs. My current card is an RTX 3080 with 10GB of VRAM, which has started to feel limiting, especially in more demanding titles that keep pushing past that VRAM threshold.

After browsing around, I've narrowed it down to two AMD cards: the RX 7900 XTX and the RX 9070 XT. Both happen to be available at roughly the same price where I live, which honestly makes the choice harder than I expected.

One thing that stood out while going through benchmarks is that both cards seem to fall noticeably behind Nvidia in ray-traced workloads, and from what I've read this apparently holds true even on Linux, which is my main OS. That's a bit of a concern since I do enjoy games that lean into RT effects.

The other thing I haven't been able to find much on is VR performance. I use VR pretty regularly and it's honestly one of my main use cases, so it's not really something I can ignore. VR-specific benchmarks for these cards just seem really hard to come across.

So I guess my main questions are: which of the two is the better pick for Linux gaming, how bad is the ray tracing gap in practice, and how do they actually hold up in VR? Any insight or personal experience would be hugely appreciated!

Issue with Mouse-Movement in steam games

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 27. Februar 2026 - 22:22

So far I managed to have Helldivers2 and Space Marine 2 up and running well, to the extend that Nvidia on Linux allows me to.

In the Video provided you see my mouse movement mis-interpreted as Controller-Stick-Left in all directions in SM2.

On HD2 I can fix this issue by moving the game to my second monitor with 'WIN+LEFT', this trick doesnt work on SM2 and is a general problem I faced so far in all of my (2) installed games.

Has somebody else had this problem before?

OS: POP-OS 24.04

Steam: ProtonGE-10-32 with "mangohud %command%"

mouse-movement interpreted as controller-stick
