Path tracing doesn't work on pragmata?
Hey everyone, I've been trying to get path tracing to work on pragmata. It crashes instantly. I am on Nvidia and using the latest drivers (595), cachyos and I've tried multiple different proton versions and path tracing causes it to crash instantly. Anyone know of any tricks to get it working? Thanks.

Fluorine manager is awesome to mod FNV
Use jackify to install ttw and then use fluorine manager to play it. It works really well even when highly modded. If you didn’t wanna switch to Linux because you couldn’t mod fnv then look no further. Warning though, fallout 4 seems to be quite fucked as it launches in a weird windowed mode and can’t seem to be bypassed by any steam launch options or anything.
Also, use jackify to install wabbajack modlists.
And by the way if you don’t have nexus premium.. well let me give you a piece of advice. Wabbajack is quite weird with heavily modded lists. Unlocked frame rates can cause lots of issues. (read the first word of each of the last two sentences and then let Mr google tell you the rest. Yes, it does work with jackify, just look at the guide there.)

What else on linux?
Trying to finally ditch microslop
Hello folks of the Linux community.
I've been contemplating to migrate into Linux since forever, but video games was the only ever reason to stay on Windows. Despite it being absolutely unusable since Windows 8.
My biggest problem is that I've always liked nVidia GPUs (As the 3 ones I've gotten from AMD so far have always been giving me issues).
This brings me to today, only 2 days ago I've finished yet another day at 2AM in absolute white rage about Windows being retarded (this time my bluetooth adapter just decided to stop working because a firmware update for .NET has been downloaded.... NOT INSTALLED.... Downloaded...).
In short - I am asking for help =(
How does one migrate to Linux when I have an nVidia GPU and like games that are (Probably) not very compatible with Linux? =(
I am at my wit's ends, but genuinely Microslop's native support for Direct 3D is just not worth it anymore....
The biggest titles that I am worried about are the Monster Hunter series, as well as ICARUS and STALKER GAMMA.
Most of the rest of the things I am 100% are able to run on Linux, but I am wondering... Should I set up dual boot for the days I feel like playing the things that Linux simply won't handle (For now)?

Skyrim Fast Booter Mod
I am not the Mod Author. But used it and holy moly let me say my 2261 Mods and 1528 Plugins loads in 225 Seconds to Main menu. It used to be more than 9+ minutes.
My Platform is Linux and using ModOrganizer 2 Linux Port (Fluorine Manager)
Excerpts from Mod Page:
This mod attempts to probe and cache all of your files provided in your game folder. As a result booting up the game should be a lot faster, I've had a few people on linux and windows report a few different timings, but overall its an improvement. There is also some attempted improvements to SPID and KID making their loading properly threaded, this should also reduce boot times to the menu.

UA Voice CC Bridge — Steam Deck plugin that voices subtitles in Ukrainian 🎮🇺🇦
Hey everyone! I've been working on UA Voice CC Bridge — a Decky Loader plugin that automatically voices subtitles in Ukrainian for Steam Deck.
## What it does:
- 📸 Captures subtitles from your screen (OCR)
- 🔊 Converts them to speech using Piper TTS
- 🇺🇦 3 Ukrainian voices (Mykyta, Lada, Tetiana)
- ⌨️ Typewriter mode — voices subtitles as they appear
- 🎛️ Fully customizable
## How it works:
Screenshot → OCR (Tesseract) → Text-to-Speech (Piper) → Audio
Total latency: ~300ms
## Important:
⚠️ This plugin does NOT translate subtitles. It only voices subtitles that already exist in the game. Games must have Ukrainian subtitles for this to work.
## et it:
🔗 GitHub: https://github.com/Fok86/UA_VoiceCCBridge
📦 Latest release: https://github.com/Fok86/UA_VoiceCCBridge/releases/tag/v1.0.0
Currently requesting official addition to Decky Loader: https://github.com/SteamDeckHomebrew/decky-loader/issues/899
Let me know what you think! 🚀
Привіт! Зробив плагін для Decky Loader — UA Voice CC Bridge, який автоматично озвучує субтитри українською мовою на Steam Deck.
## Що він робить:
- 📸 Захоплює субтитри з екрана (OCR)
- 🔊 Перетворює їх на мову за допомогою Piper TTS
- 🇺🇦 3 українські голоси (Микита, Лада, Тетяна)
- ⌨️ Режим "Друкарська машинка" — озвучує субтитри по мірі появи
- 🎛️ Повністю налаштовується
## як це працює:
Знімок → OCR (Tesseract) → Синтез мови (Piper) → Звук
Загальна затримка: ~300мс
## Важливо:
⚠️ Плагін НЕ робить переклад субтитрів. Він озвучує тільки ті субтитри що вже є в грі. Гра повинна мати українські субтитри!
## Де взяти:

Just like in real life, this ice fishing game is both relaxing AND exciting! 😊 (Linux compatible)
It's okay to fall asleep. 😴 Let yourself be soothed by the gentle winter breeze in the trees. And don’t worry... if something bites, you’ll wake right up! 😁
If you want to see more of the game, you can find the Steam page here (if interested make sure to Wishlist, since the release is scheduled for November!): https://store.steampowered.com/app/4266710/Ice_Pond_An_Ice_Fishing_Adventure/

Created a script to patch Win7 classic games for Wine
Win7 classic games (from WinAero) come with MUI files which are not supported by Wine for the moment. This makes Wine unable to load resources properly. one workaround is to use Resource Hacker and for each file to add the MUI resource to the exe but this is a long process for each executable.
Resource Hacker comes with a CLI and scripting capabilities so I decided to take the time to retry an idea I had after seeing the post by u/Coolcricri3.
I verified that the GUI method and the scripting method are equivalent by checking that the md5sum hashes are the same.
Since Win7 games are headless and Resource Hacker also has a headless mode, this can be done without needing to use the GUI.
The support can still be buggy for reasons unrelated to the patch and some games may crash more than others.
Patches are applied to the following games:
- Chess Titans
- FreeCell
- Hearts
- Mahjong
- Minesweeper
- PurblePlace
- Solitaire
- SpiderSolitaire

Nobara Linux ungodly slow updating, no resolution options beyond 1024x768.
So I just installed Nobara Linux today on my auxiliary gaming PC, trying to escape the Microslop wagon. It would seem that the installation was successful (despite the instructions on Nobara’s website), but when I go to update, not only are the installs taking a lot of time (I am on copper), but it would seem that my GPU isn’t being seen. I can only access one of my two monitors and only get a 1024x768 resolution.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
EDIT: here are some vital system specs.
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 3060 (12GB)
RAM: 32GB DDR4
Motherboard: Gigabyte A520I
Processor: AMD 7600X

Which is newest: Proton experimental or proton 11.0 beta?
I dont really know who makes proton experimental, as afaik you cant get it anywhere apart from steam, so i usually use normal versions on lutris, but i have some games on steam now, and im wondering which i should use. I know it may, and probably will, come with some instability because its still at beta, same with experimental, but i just wanna know if its even worth trying out.
I'm on a normal desktop pc, ryzen 5 5600, 3080, i know i wont benefit from the new arm things.

Can't change resolution of the game or go fullscreen
- CPU: Intel i3-370M (1st Gen, 2.40 GHz, 2C/4T)
- KERNEL: 6.12.74+deb13+1-amd64
- GPU: Integrated Intel HD Graphics, Intel Mesa Intel HD (ILK)
- GPU DRIVER: 2.1 Mesa 25.0.7-2
- RAM: 8GB
- OS: MX Linux Xfce
After using Windows for about 15 years, I’ve been gradually getting used to Linux over the past week; I’ve managed to successfully run Worms Armageddon and Dangerous Waters with good performance, but when I try to change the resolution in Virtual Pool 4, I just get a black screen.
I’m using the following tools:
Lutris
and
Steam, default or GE-Proton via ProtonUp-Qt, trying different versions of Proton.
The game launches and runs normally, but I can’t change the resolution no matter what I try. The AI suggests running it in virtual desktop mode, but either the AI’s instructions are incorrect or that doesn’t work either. By the way, I suspect that Steam is simply modifying user.reg after I add my settings there. Protontricks won’t open winecfg. I’m stuck.
The .ini file for game settings is not created after launching and exiting the game normally.

Finally Switching to Linux Soon, but Don't Know Which Distro
(Dear mods, I'm moreso asking how CachyOS would perform on my bleeding edge hardware and if it's the best, and if not, what IS the best, not straight up cluelessly asking what distro I should use. I would use the getting started guide if that was the case)
I've made a few posts here talking about switching to Linux like I've wanted to but always ended up switching back because I'm on an old NVIDIA card (1050ti), and even with stable Linux distributions like Ubuntu or PopOS, even if drivers worked, modern game performance was horrendous compared to Windows.
Well, I'm finally going to all AMD, my old rig was an i5 6500, 16 gb ddr4, and a GTX 1050ti, and now I'm moving to a Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 32 gb DDR5, and a Radeon RX 9070XT.
Going all AMD for a near perfect Linux experience compared to Nvidia.
However, I understand that with bleeding edge hardware, I need bleeding edge drivers and kernel in a bleeding edge distro.
What distribution is best for this hardware? I've looked into it a bit and considered CachyOS, nearly dead set on it, but many say it's not a good distro for someone without very much general Linux experience since it is Arch based.
But all the other beginner Linux distros often just won't work with my bleeding edge hardware, or will require much more tweaking. CachyOS is optimized for performance as well, custom and optimized and works nearly perfectly with all my bleeding edge hardware I've heard.
What distro do you guys think I should go with, and does anyone have experience with how this hardware performs on Linux with gaming, specifically CachyOS?

[HELP] Steam Game Recording Overlay is extremely laggy/stuttering
Hi everyone,
I’m having a weird issue with the new Steam Game Recording feature. It used to work perfectly, but lately, whenever I click on "Show Recording" (the video player inside the Shift+Tab overlay), the playback is extremely laggy and stutters/freezes constantly, even though the game in the background is running perfectly fine.
I've attached a video showing the issue (happening in Deadlock, but it’s the same in KOF XV and others).
My Setup:
- OS: Arch Linux
- DE: KDE Plasma 6.6.4 (Wayland)
- GPU: AMD Radeon RX 9070 XT (Mesa Drivers)
- Kernel: 6.19.11-zen1-1-zen
- Steam Version: Proton 10
What I've already tried:
- Disabling "Hardware Accelerated GPU Scheduling" in Steam Interface settings.
- Disabling "Hardware Video Decoding" in Steam Interface.
- Lowering the recording bitrate and quality.
- Checking vainfo (Hardware encoding seems to be active for VA-API).
The recording file itself is fine when I watch it outside of Steam, the problem is specifically the Steam Overlay Player.
Has anyone encountered this?
Any help would be appreciated!

Seeking moderators!
Are acts of service your love language? Do you have whatever weird combination of humility and overconfidence it takes to wade through and sort out the dregs of reddit on a daily basis?
You’ll need: English skills. Linux skills (beyond making it do Windows things). Free time and energy, obviously; not all day, every day, but not just on weekends either. Familiarity with the rules. No fundamental objections to the rules. Level-headedness. (In dubio pro reo.) A sense of humour, probably.
In the long run: it’d be nice to get more contributors to the FAQ and other documents and sidebar resources and whatnot on board. I can’t do this forever.
Don’t message us with requests — just say something here. If that and your post history look fine and we still need more mods at that point you’ll be invited.
It’s no fun and there’ll be complaints no matter what you do. But if you want to help this community not suck, this is a necessary job.
