The state of modding games in Linux (Small rant)
There has been one topic, that was on my mind since I went to Linux 3 months ago. I tried different distros and don't want to look back to windows, ever again. But there is one thing that I wish would be better.
Modding Games. I just fall in love of the idea of revisiting old games with a new perspective, namely: A mod compelation I've got from either wabbajack but mostly Nexus Mods.
I do know LIME & MO2 exist, but I am unable to make Vortex work and the native version is still in it's first baby steps and will take months if not years to get to the point. Also both don't support afaik not the wonder that is a mod compelation, a combination of mods that just work well together. If anybody know a way to make vortex work in Linux (Yesterday I learned of NaK, but it only supports a view games and no compelations).
PLEASE enlighten me

Limo (Mod Manager) and Skyrim / Starfield : help
Hi everyone, I'm using Bazzite and wanted to go back to some Bethesda games like Skyrim, Starfield and also the Fallout : London massive mod based on Fallout 4.
But today I'll let Fallout : London aside because I'm trying to use mods and especially Silverlock's Script Extender work for both Skyrim & Starfield (mainly Starfield first).
I have followed the extensive Limo tutorial and set my deployers accordingly (Install, Bin, Plugins). I have downloaded the latest SFSE (Starfield Script Extender) but unlike Skyrim's, there's only one mod installed in this case (probably because SFSE doesn't come with a Data folder). Anyway, I set SFSE in the Bin deployer, copy & paste the sfse_loader.exe to Starfield.exe as it is specified in the tutorial.
I install just a few mods that require SFSE to work, I set them in the Install deployer, lauch the game and... Nothing ! No mod loaded, not even the ones that doesn't require SFSE.
Then I click "Deploy" on both Bin & Install deployers. Silly me ! I start the game and... I have a dial box appearing saying "You have renamed sfse_loader and not specified the name of the runtime." And I don't know where I'm supposed to specify the name of the runtime at all.
If anyone has an idea ^

Games run faster on SteamOS than Windows 11, Ars testing finds
Gaming on Linux Sucks. That’s Why I Use Xbox Cloud Gaming.
Looking to try another distro with a dedicated game mode similar to SteamOS, are CachyOS/Nobara/Bazzite my only choices or are there more?
I use my PC on my TV and I'm looking for a distro with a dedicated game mode. I've tried CachyOS, Nobara, and Bazzite and I'm wondering if there are any more.
I am using AMD.
Thanks in advance.

You can try my roguelike word game Lexispell on Steam!
Hey guys, if you like word games, you might enjoy Lexispell. It's a cozy roguelike word game with a physics twist. You spell words, pick upgrades and consumables and try to score enough points to progress to the next step.
I'm currently running a playtest on Steam and you can request access. If you really want to play, please send me a DM, I'll give you an override key so you don't have to wait to be selected.
I'm developing the game on Linux so I know it works well but I'd love to get more people to try it and give me feedback! It works well on the Steam deck too (touchscreen, mouse or gamepad).

here's the question: is it possible to play via an emulator with reasonable performance? has anyone tried that before?
EDIT: i meant virtual machine instead of emulator, mb

Issue with Launching Monster Hunter Wilds
So I recently tried to launch Monster Hunter Wilds and I have had mixed results. When the game would first compile ingame shaders it would work perfectly fine. However trying to launch the game afterwards would result:
The window would appear (black screen)
Steam overlay displays
The window attempts to resize to my monitor
After a couple of seconds on the black screen (frozen) the game would crash
System Specs:
12th Gen i7
Rx 9070 xt
32 GB RAM
2 TB ssd
Distro: bazzite:stable Linux 6.17.7-ba19.fc43.x86_64
Launch Options: (tried with and without)
PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 %command%
Proton Version:
GE-Proton10-25
I messed around too much and I got hit with the Denuvo timeout of 24 hours. Anything I should try after 24 hours? (I plan to upload my proton logs when I can) Thank you.

Linux users won't admit to being sheep
I don't think the comparison makes sense nor the person making the meme strike me as an intellectual person.

anyone experienced with elden ring modding here?
graceborne alpha 0.2 just released which requires the use of a .bat file to launch. without it, the game doesn't load sounds, music or enemy replacements properly among many other things. i've tried just adding the .bat file as a non steam game but it just opens the wine console menu and crashes. folks on steamos on the steam deck have informed me that it's working for them, but im on cachyos and am using elden proton which works for everything but this. i can't make issues on their github for some reason so im forced to ask for help here. anyone been able to get this working on distros other than steamos?

Trying to play music through my microphone(like Voicemeeter)
Hi guys, I am in the process of converting all my devices to Linux and totally daily driving it. Most of my games and apps have been replaced and are working on Linux. Well I now need to find an alternative to Voicemeeter. I need to be able to route my mic to different channels and put sound of my app through it(like Spotify or my Web Browser). I tried Pulsemeeter and Jackd. While they were alternatives to Voicemeeter, I had no success achieving what I wanted.
I want to know if this thing is possible on Linux? What are your software recommendations? Am I missing something?
Thanks for your help in advance, really happy to be in the freedom community.
Oh and also side note: I use arch btw(if that can be godd info to help me).
