Hello!

I just into this game, and discovered that there's a proper PC version of this.
I tried installing it but it is just stuck on the Initializing download screen

Do I have to make changes on my Wine install? I use the latest stable release.

thanks in advance!

what is the best linux distro for gaming?, I want to squeeze out as much performance as I can

I've played games with wine-ge all my life while using linux and everywhere I see proton is recommended for gaming. I know proton is based on wine itself but what makes it more desirable for gaming on Linux?

I also play games from steam, but even with that games on proton on my device seem to never work. They never execute in the first place. So I've always needed to use wine-ge. Recently, proton decided to work somehow, and as far as I've played, I didn't notice any improvement, nor any degradation in performance.

Btw, I don't have a dedicated GPU and overall, not even a mid-spec pc for that matter, so it would be much appreciated if you base your answers around these parameters.

It's not like I need to use proton, I'm just curious about what's so good about proton that many people prefer it over wine-ge.

This could mean that the support on Linux will end.

After many people telling me I need to make a video on how I did everything with my party.

I finally did. I covered how I used my Steam Deck for everything related with my Birthday Party!

It’s amazing how well Minecraft and COD BO2 run on the Steam Deck with NucleusCo-Op!

Especially with the Nintendo Switch Emulation that was done too!

Hope it is informative for you!

If you have any questions, let me know!

So I have been trying to get GTA V work on my laptop and I have also tried to find any information about it, but I haven’t had any success, So here I am asking.

What should I do?

The game doesn’t launch, a window with my cd key pops up, but nothing else. I tried installing the Rockstar Games Launcher (RSGL because I will not type that out again) through Wine before my first attempt to launch, it did not find the GTA V game files.

I have tried validating Game file integrity, still the same behavior.

I have tried uninstalling RSGL in the hopes that Steam/Proton would sort that out for me and let me install it through Proton, still the same, doesn’t launch, just gives me the CD key and then nothing…

I have DXVK and ms true type core font instead.

What should I do next, how have you installed/ gotten it working?

Have you installed RSGL through Lutris?

Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I’m still a rookie when it comes to Linux, but I really want to learn and to be fully prepared to completely switch when Windows 10 reaches end of life.

My laptop specs: AMD Ryzen 5 4000 series (with on board graphics, of course), Nvidia🤢🤮 RTX3050 4GB VRAM, 16GB RAM. I’m running Garuda Dragonized KDE in X11 because no to Wayland.

Hey guys,

I just installed avatar on my bazzite setup, both working "well" with bottles and lutris: - With Bottles I'm adding Ubisoft connect then install the game, I can only play from bottles directly, from Steam shortcut not working at all from desktop or gamemode. - From lutris I succeed to add the steam shortcut and game is working from desktop Steam.

My main issue is that with lutris, this Steam shortcut only works in desktop mode but not on "console" gamemode which I'm using in my living room. Do you guys have any suggestions to make it work?

Im not exactly new to linux but this whole anti-cheat situation has me confused, are kernal level anti cheats supported? which ones from which games? If not, should Wine and proton make effort towards supporting them, I probably wont play a game with a kernal level anti cheat or at the very least play it on another linux system i have where i dont care about privacy, I thought that maybe wine or proton developers had no intrest on supporting kernal level anti cheats because of how invasive they are. If thats the case then I'd understand that but also id like the option to play some of these games. Unless that the burden of linux support of AC's fall on the AC developer

Hello. I encounter this issue with games like stray or carmageddon: max damage. I cannot change (lower) the resolution in stray because fps goes from ~40 down to ~10 and won't go back to normal, the same for some game animations or sometimes reloading a checkpoint (hit or miss). If i change the resolution again the image just freezes but i can hear the game running and i can still play it (with no video obviously).

Similiar things happens to carmageddon: max damage. I restart a level 4 or 5 times (more or less) and it starts to stutter a lot.

No difference using lutris wine runners (tried wine-ge 8.26 and lutris 7.2.2) or system wine 9.7 staging. The same using dxvk or vkd3d (stray dx11 or dx12). I cannot test nouveau or wined3d because they are just a slideshow. My system is: intel core i5 3570, 8 gb ram, nvidia geforce gt 1030 with proprietary drivers.

I'm using artix linux xfce s6, but I tried it with kde desktop too and other distros like devuan and MX linux.

Trying to play Sea Of Thieves, seems some strange issue with the recent update has done something to break compatibility. And now, I can get here manually launching the game from .exe, but I'm unable to type anything in this box. I'm running the latest version of arch with plasma 6. I have a 5700G and 6700XT if that matters. At a loss, and idk what to do. Anyone else experience this?

Here is my hardware and driver info

Whenever I play Subnautica and its sequel, it runs well for about 10 minutes before the FPS drops to 15 fps with less than 50% GPU usage. Quitting the game doesn't resolve the problem. Everything becomes laggy. Anything that requires any i/o grinds to a halt. Restarting doesn't resolve the issue. When checking CPU usage, random apps will have really high CPU usage (kde system monitor, firefox, glances might have 50-70% CPU usage). The only thing that I've managed to do to fix this is by reinstalling the kernels using arch-chroot. Other games I've tried (war thunder, stardew valley, sniper elite 3, portal revolution, darkest dungeon have not shown such problems. I have tried to make sure it's not a hardware problem by installing windows and playing the game without problem. Running on a freshly installed endeavouros also results in the same problem. I have tried it with nvidia 550 and 545 with the same result. Currently running 535 because of other problems. I have no idea what's causing all this but my current recourse is to just not play the game

For games that is running through proton such as Helldivers 2 and Fall guys, those games started briefly for like 10 seconds then stops I suspect it might have something to do with this in journalctl -f

May 04 11:22:12 superpc kwin_wayland[781]: kf.windowsystem: static bool KX11Extras::mapViewport() may only be used on X11

For Linux native games like Team Fortress 2 I get a windows popped up saying some error in the image below

This issues only started happening today as it have been working flawlessly without any issues before. I'm running KDE Plasma 6 on Arch Linux using Wayland on Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti for Proton I'm using GE-Proton9-4 and for both Native games I'm not using any command arguments.

So I usually use my desktop when it comes to gaming, I'm a simple man; I want always a good map of CIV VI and another game with a story.

Currently I'm wanting to play some rockstar games like GTA IV and Bully, which I've never finished. On my desktop I can play GTA IV with no problem, but I'm a little lazy setting up the game and play it on the tv.

Then there's my beloved ThinkPad X280:

• Intel i5-8350U
• Intel UHD 620
• 256gb SSD + 128 SD
• 8BitDo Ultimate Controller
• Linux Mint 21.3 Cinnamon, just like my desktop

By no means this was made for gaming, but so far I've been testing things that runs well like:

• Bully 1080@30
• Dolphin 720@60
• Valkyria Chronicles 1080@30
• Senran Kagura: Bon Appetit 1080@60

So I decided to test part of my Steam library just for fun, that way I discovered that by installing GTA IV (and rockstar games launcher by extension) Bully was able to start in spanish when there was no way to start in spanish before at least for me.

Obviously the game ran horribly, with a weird glitch like a line of colors in the center of the screen and a lot of frameskip, but I noticed steam was reporting 30+ fps counts, which was weird since I was getting very inconsistent framerate while testing.

Investigating I found the next command that fixed the graphic glitch:

• INTEL_DEBUG=nobc %command%

That fixed the graphics but I was getting still inconsistent framerate issues, so I found the Fusion Fix patch that allows to lock the fps and I decided to give it a try, then I applied the next command that I learned while testing Bully:

• WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b" %command%

I started the game combining both commands, put the frame limiter to 30, downgraded the graphics settings and:

That's me driving with one hand and recording with the other at 1024x576@30fps

Yes, almost everything is set to the lower setting possible, but there are things that are adjustable, I'm playing in that video at 1024x576 which doesn't look bad on the small screen of that laptop, plus I think the performance is better than the PS3/360 versions at the time.

There can be some tweaks that I'll try sooner or later (I think there's still some room to improve since it keeps the 30fps most of the time), and for a lot of people it may look very ugly, but I didn't expect this level of performance on one of the worst optimized pc games that I've ever played and running on a compatibility layer.

I'm seriously considering playing this way in portable mode, not even on Windows I could run the game (it always closed before the loading screens).

This ThinkPad still surprises me.
