A couple of weeks ago, everything was working perfectly fine, but suddenly it stopped working. What could be the cause?

kernel 6.18.13-arch1-1
GPU Radeon RX 6500
CPU Intel Core i5-9500
SteamVR version December 24, 2025

If I have a Linux system set up with Lutris and Wine and all my games installed into ~/.wine, can I just copy that folder to another Linux install and expect everything to work(Debian -> Fedora)? Or is it better practice to use separate Wine prefixes per game, store them on a disk, and re-attach/import those prefixes on another system?

Basically trying to figure out the most reliable and portable way to manage Wine game installs across systems.

Also during setups for games, do I need to also install certain dependencies like directX, c++ retribution and etc...?

Hi everyone! I just published the Pre-Alpha of PRESS-PLAY on Itch.io. It's a first-person atmospheric experience where you play as a nameless detective. I'm looking for technical feedback on the feel of the movement and the overall atmosphere. Run better on Linux than Windows btw!

Engine: Godot Play(Pre-Alpha ):

Please let me know what you think in the comments!

Hi again,

A few weeks ago, I shared a new project I'd started working on, NOMM (Native Open Mod Manager)! (https://www.reddit.com/r/linux\_gaming/comments/1qwvqi7)

I wanted to share a progress update after adding some new features but for the people who only care about Skyrim or Fallout support : it's still not there (and likely won't be for a while).

For the rest, I've added support for Cyberpunk, The Witcher 3, and Ready or Not.

When I say "added support" I mean that it should be able to download and install most mods fine, but once again, this is an early alpha project, so there will be bugs and missing features.

I made a new video to showcase the features I've worked on over the past 20-ish days but it boils down to this:

• Added support for GOG/Epic libraries via Heroic (and added little SVGs bottom right of the games so you can know which game comes from which library)
• Added support for the games mentioned above
• Added mod update checking
• Added a new settings screen that lets you change your downloads/staging paths & update your nexus mods API key
• Revamped the downloader and added some shenanigans (I've always wanted to do this)
• Added a warning when files have been removed by the user with the list of files missing
• Added a list of files attached to a mod in staging (when the mod contains multiple root files and not just a single folder or file)
• Completely revamped the first launch onboarding
• Completely changed the way staging works (for the better I hope)

What I really need now is people to actually test the app and tell me how it's breaking working for them!

(Seriously though, without feedback and testing on other systems, it is very hard for me to make significant progress)

As previously, you can find the Github here: https://github.com/Allexio/nomm/

Thank you in advance for any feedback you can provide either on the Github or on Discord. It is very much appreciated.

The menu may show 3.1* on first boot, but on restart it should show 4.0.3

Hey chooms,

I got tired of launching Cyberpunk 2077, changing one setting, running the benchmark, writing numbers down… and repeating that 50 times like a lab technician instead of actually playing the game.

So I wrote a small open-source tool that does it for me automatically and helps find the best settings for my system on Linux.

If you like tweaking and chasing perfect performance, maybe it’ll help you too:

I'm thinking of getting a zenbook a14 on sale, because it suits all my needs... except minecraft. I heard of Prism Launcher, but ngl I'm used to modrinth's launcher (it already runs native on linux, but not on arm).

Is there a way to make the latter compatible, and in either case, would mods cause problems?

( im not opposed to using prism, just don't wanna have to change things if i dont need to :p )

Im a beginner using Mint + Proton Qt, other games run fine, but no matter which version of Proton I use for EU5, it either crashes at 96% loading, or at a seemingly random point within the game. For example when autosaving, or signing a peace treaty.

Also something of note, I cant seem to set the 3D map on - no matter which setting I use, I always see a flat map.

Just wondering if anyone has any ideas on what could be causing this.

Every time I want to play Overwatch I have to wait around 10 minutes with the game open for it to be playable. I belive it's shader cacheing or however it's written. Is there any way to make it stop? Like I don't wanna have to wait 10 mins everytime I want to play for my cpu to stop going 100%.

I turned off pre-caching in steam already.

Hello everyone.

I've been trying to run Plutonium for zombies on Linux, it works the first launch but after a few minutes it crashes every single time the game opens without fail.

I've tracked down the source of the issue, my GPU is AMD and though Vulkan works the first time, it seems to be slamming into a wall over and over again

err:msvcrt:_wassert (L"!status",L"../src-wine/dlls/winevulkan/loader.c",392)

There also seems to be an access violation inside RADV
Exception 0xc0000005 at /run/host/usr/lib/libvulkan_radeon.so + 0x2a5640

The main offender is the winevulkan loader. It's the repeat offender over and over again. Changing to OpenGL seems like a clever workaround and under OpenGL it opens the game but won't load ANY of the textures because for some extremely odd reason the Black Ops 2 D3D9 renderer appears to be mapped specifically to Nvidia specific implementations, which of course Mesa and AMD haven't (and will probably never) implement.

I'd thought about bringing it up to the Plutonium development team but I doubt they'd give a shit considering I'm using Linux.

What drives me insane though is that I'm the only person who seems to have this problem. Nobody else can ever seem to replicate it. It doesn't matter what distro I use, what display server I switch to, I can never ever get this game to work (I've gone from Mint to Arch and several arch based distros to now Fedora and this game crashes the exact same way every single time.)

Does anyone have any clever workarounds for this? I've tried several launch options like PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% (which opens the game but fails to load textures as I stated before)

I've also tried fucking with RADV launch options and Vulkan Loader settings, I even checked my Vulkan driver to make sure it was initializing correctly. Everything checks out and this is the ONLY game that has this issue.

As I said too, it works perfectly fine on the first launch of the game. I'm able to join a lobby and play for as long as I want, but if I shut the game down and go do something else for an hour or so it becomes unlaunchable. It's jarring.

I'm using a 7900XTX 24GB model (although I doubt the extra VRAM matters). Anyone else having or is able to replicate this issue?
