I want to try to mod fallout 4, 99% of my games work fine through proton but there isn't much info on modding. I use manjaro.

EDIT: totally forgot to mention that this is about Steam

I got a new PC on Christmas and I wanted to try out Linux using it, scpeciffically ZorinOS.

I want to take the 1TB HDD from my old Windows PC and add it to the new one.

But sadly I'm not even at this step since I have Problems adding a new library folder (see picture).

If I give it all file permissions via Flatseal (as I found online) it still doesn't work and when I try to restart Steam, it wont start until I reset the Permissions.

How do you execute unity games?, recently i downloaded a game thats meant to run with unity from google, thing is idk what file is the .exe file and within the filers there is a unityplayer.so file but it tells me it needs an app to run, i downloaded unity hub but nothing changed, only now when i run unityplayer.so it redirects me to unity hub but only because i manually did it once.

im using linux mint zara for all of this and i dont know if i need any programs from software manager or i just installed the wrong unity

I HAVE looked and googled for a solid hour before resorting to reddit but it didnt get me anywhere other than downloading unity hub

Thanks for your patience and attention

I'm currently dual-booting arch and windows. When running cs2 on arch it feels very choppy, like it's running at 60hz (monitor is 100hz and settings say 100hz), while on windows it runs super smooth. I should also add I have limited FPS to 130. Turning on vsync on arch helps and makes it smooth but adds a lot of input lag, so either way it's unplayable.

However, Mafia 3 seems to run the complete opposite. On Arch it's butter smooth with maximum FPS set to 100 while it runs like crap and is very choppy on windows even with unlimited fps.

Any ideas? This is extremely frustrating to me, I'd prefer to keep all games in one place, either arch or windows and not have to boot into a different OS depending on the game I wanna play. TIA

I’m using an Xbox Elite controller and for connecting it, I use xpadneo. Sometimes while playing games, the controller will just randomly disconnect briefly and reconnect afterwards. I’m using linux mint 22.2 and the kernel is 6.14.0-37-generic.

There's a lot of cute lil indie games out there using Unity engine that I've been adding to my collection, so when I realized many of them don't seem to work on Wayland I was pretty disappointed. I'm tryna consolidate my library, not fragment it further across multiple Desktop Environments and OSes.

Anyway, what I learned is PROTON_USE_WINED3D=1 %command% in Launch Options might be all you need. Maybe this is already known but I spent a few weeks pulling my hair out trying to find a solution other than "just use x11" or "just use Windows" so I thought I'd shout it into the void for anyone else searching... maybe it will improve someone's Christmas holiday.

As far as I understand this option just forces openGL instead of VK3D, bypassing some hard incompatibilities. This seems to be a reliable fix for Unity games and others too - almost all of my "only worked in x11" games seem to be fixed with this environment variable, including:

• Alchemist Simulator

• Cocoon

• Corn Kidz 64

• Crea

• Dark Messiah of Might and Magic

• Dorf Romantik

• Hero Siege

• The House of Da Vinci

• Infinifactory

• KeyWe

• Madness Project Nexus

• Oberty

• OneShift

• Overlord

• Portal Revolution

• Tomb Raider: GOTY edition

• Webbed

Note there are even a few non-unity games here so if you have ANY games that don't launch on Wayland it might be worth a try. For some games I also had to force Proton Experimental, which I found is sometimes enough of a fix on its own.

Now if I can just solve my steaminput issues I'll finally achieve peak comfy Linux gaming

I have been trying to get assetto corsa working for several days now with no luck. Right now at I am at a point where if I try to launch the game from steam it sorta gives up and steam shows the green play button again. If I try running it with Proton GE I get a weird uninstaller error saying something about the application with GUID was not found. I know it should work but I have no idea why it is not. I have Protontricks installed at the moment. At some point I was having an issue where it was asking for a .NET to be installed but that hasn't happened for a while. Any help or lead would be greatly appreciated.

GPU: RTX 3060

CPU: I5 10400f

RAM: 32Gb DDR4

Monitor: 1440p 320Hz

Every game was working pefectly fine until I got a new monitor, now certain steam games (Subnautica and Teardown) just have a black screen and freeze on launch. When this happens I have to press Ctrl+Alt+Backspace to restart the environment because alt+tab and alt+f4 fails to work. I tried setting the resolution and refresh rate in the launch options but that causes it to work like 20% of the time. I have the 580-open Nvidia driver and the driver version 580.95.05.

Hi, how's it going? I recently switched to Linux. I have a Lenovo LOQIRX10 laptop with an i5 13450hx and an RTX 5050, mainly because I noticed an improvement in the laptop's temperatures, which went from 66°C to 48°C. However, when I play games, I notice that the fans don't spin very fast, and this causes the temperatures to rise significantly. I haven't found a way to control them. I tried Lenovo Legion Linux, but I couldn't get it to work. If you know how I could improve this, I would be grateful.

I recently switched to Linux, and gaming has been great overall until today.

Cyberpunk 2077 is completely unplayable.

On Windows, I played at 3440×1440 using the Ray Tracing Psycho preset with FSR + Frame Generation, getting around 120 FPS. On Linux, performance has fallen off a cliff:

• RT Psycho (FSR + Frame Gen): ~2–3 FPS
• RT Medium (no FSR / no Frame Gen): ~20 FPS
• Low settings: ~70 FPS

I’ve tried reinstalling the game in case it was a bad install, but that didn’t help. I also tried different versions of proton. At this point I’m pretty lost.

System Specs:

• OS: Zorin OS 18
• CPU: Ryzen 7 7800X3D
• GPU: XFX Mercury 9070 XT
• RAM: 32 GB Aorus DDR5 6000 CL36
• Motherboard: B650M Aorus Elite AX
• PSU: Corsair SF1000L

Hi all,

Today I tried installing some games in my Arch PC, Im still new to arch, I reciently migrated but there is a lot of information in the internet and many already had stumble with the issues that I had so no problem there and learning in the process :).

Today I wanted to take a step forwards and try gaming, I used Lutris and tried playing Skyrim.

Game open and FPS werent that bad, however graphics looks like this, all textures fail and objects look kind of transparent. NPCs and player were ok.

What could be the issue here?

I would expect to have a problem with wine, dxvk or vulkan (both three gave me problems while installing), but I cant tell. I find it kinda hard to search for this specific problem as english is not my first language and Im not a tech guy to explain what is happening in the picture.

Thanks yall in advance for the support :)

Hi I'm pretty new to Linux (kinda). And recently i switched to Ubuntu on my main pc. Now I use a GT 730 2Gb GDDR5 version and with the nvidia 470 drivers, i am locked to 1024x763 4:3. So i decided to purge the nivida drivers and stick to nouveau. But now whenever I'm opening half life 2 (which ran perfectly on windows) or Automation: the car company tycoon, it just won't run. Now is there something I can do here or should I switch distros?

I recently switched over to EndevourOS, and went to install Source games (portal, hl2, ect.) The games open, menus work, but the moment I try to start a new game, the game closes. Is there any fix to this? I wanna play my portal lmao

I have an RTX 3050 Ti laptop and Steam doesn't use my graphics card for games, instead using the integrated graphics on my laptop. When I launch a game, both Btop++ and Plasma System Monitor show that my integrated GPU usage spikes to max while my GPU usage stays the same when running a game. Oddly, nvidia-smi shows that the exe process is running on my gpu. I am using Hyprland on Arch Linux, and that is running perfectly fine on my GPU. I will also note that this problem doesn't appear when I try to play games in my Epic Games library through the Heroic Games Launcher.
