Playing pirated games
I've experienced issues with games I've pirated in the past, as they sometimes have trouble running on linux, for example saying I have incompatible drivers or that there was a memory leak.
If you're experiencing these issues, try to add the .exe file as a Non-Steam game to steam, and then input the correct Proton version and command from protondb, corresponding to that game. This worked for me

Ashes of Creation - Linux Users Banned Overnight
Woke up to being banned from Ashes of Creation, account has been closed entirely. Took to the discord this morning and discovered, seemingly everyone who has used Linux with Ashes was banned last night. One user logged in once weeks ago. To make matters worse, this happened on the weekend and as far as we can tell from the discussion, no one who can clarify what's going on is working over the weekend.
I get the whole "unsupported OS" argument but fuck me, I wasn't expecting to have my account deleted with no real explanation as to why. It also makes the claim in this post that Intrepid don't do autobans very frustrating.

Back to Arch linux
Should I go back to Arch for gaming? I used Arch with i3wm on my old laptop for about a year and a half. But recently, I built a PC and have been using Windows 11 for gaming. It’s not a very powerful setup just an AMD APU without a dedicated GPU. I've been playing Valorant The Finals and FC26 but honestly, I'm done with Windows 11. Still, I want to keep gaming. Doesn't have to be arch btw

I Tried Input Remapper, And Now It's Virtual Device Wont Go Away.
I tried using it for my game controller, and I didn't like it so I uninstalled it. Uninstalling it, specifically using apt purge, for some reason did not purge its related virtual gamepad/input device(s). Its messing with me trying to use my controller elsewhere because my computer thinks I'm using 2 controllers at once. How can I delete, remove, or permanently disable this input device?
I tried following some instructions I found online that suggested I create the following file:
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/99-disable-gamepad.conf
and then add the following templated information to it:
Section "InputDevice" Identifier "Virtual Gamepad" Option "Device" "/dev/input/event#" Option "SendCoreEvents" "false" EndSectionwhile replacing "event#" with the specific event number of the virtual device. I found those event numbers by using "libinput list-devices" where it exactly specifies which device name corresponds to which event number. It then said to restart Xorg or my PC without specifying a command to do so. I looked up a command that was supposed to do it, but it just made the screen go black and never come back(after minutes). I used the power button to shutdown my pc, and rebooted. I was greeted with tty1, not my usual login, and it didn't let me switch to tty7(where my display usually is located). I had to use timeshift to roll back my pc a few hours. And now I'm here.
Evidently somewhere in this chain of events, I screwed something up, or the instructions were not detailed enough. In any case, I am still left with my problem, and my fear of screwing something up again if I were to try something similar.
I am running Linux Mint 21.3, should that be relevant.

Oblivion Remastered
I'm having trouble launching the game in Linux Mint (fresh install - I am new to Linux, coming from Windows). It ran fine on Windows 10, but when I launch the game in Linux (and I've tried several of the Proton options Steam provides), Steam says it launching, and then after a few seconds, it tells me it is running, and after 5-10 seconds, it stops. I never actually see the executable, nor the crash report window. I am running obse with a few mods, but it does not launch, whether I am using the obse executable or the native one.
Edit: I also verified the integrity of the game files and even uninstalled and reinstalled the game.

Is CachyOS the best?
For gaming?
I am wondering if anything comes close to it if it is, or perhaps surpasses it
I am on CachyOS currently, but my OS broke after update today. I love the speed of the OS, but it broke through basic update
Not sure if it is a regular situation, but I am not very happy with this, forcing me t reinstall

Flight stick setup?
I have 2 t1t6000m flight sticks. Jstest and KDE's built in controller tester can see the and they work as they should. But when it comes to playing steam games, none of them even detect them and I don't see them in controllers. Any idea on where to start? The arch discussion page had nothing on this that I could see

Does WoWUp (WoW mod manager) work on Linux?
I'm about to switch from Windows, but I'm not sure if WoWUp works or not. I'm using the CurseForge beta, if that matters. The website only shows a Windows logo, but I've seen a couple people say it's Linux compatible. Does anyone here know? Thank you.

Has anybody got mods working on StarCraft II via this method?
My main gaming distro is Pop OS Cosmic Beta.
Currently I have StarCraft II setup via Battle.net added to Steam as a non-game. Using Proton 10.0 compatibility layer to get Battle.net to work and then just installed the game like that
Does anyone have a different method or a recent guide you would recommend? Not sure what would work on Linux

Unable to launch games after installing lib32-vulkan-icd-loader
My current situation:
Installed lutris and its dependencies (the default stuff pacman installs) and wine.
lutris mesa-utils fluidsynth gamemode gvfs lib32-gamemode python-protobuf vulkan-icd-loader vulkan-tools wine winetricksThe other game related things (I think):
nvidia-dkms nvidia-utils nvidia-settings libva-nvidia-driver linu-firmaware-nvidia vulkan-tools vulkan-icd-loaderLutris configuration:
With this setup I can play a few games. So far among the ones I tested:
Really good:
- Dead Cells
- Easy Delivery Co
- Project Zomboid
- Undertale
Bad performance/unplayable, but at least it launches:
- Subnautica
- Kovaaks
- Cyberpupnk 2077
- Minecraft via PollyMC
Doesn't open/open but doesn't work:
- Red Dead Redemption 2 - It launches. I can see with ps that It is open in the background and the lutris logs say it's open put I don't see any sign of a window or sound.
- Jump King - The game launcher beautifully. But with nothing but sound. I can hear the game, interact with the menu. I can hear it. But see nothing. Only a black full screen window.
In order to find the Jump King issue I figured I might have missed a package. I couldn't find much, so according to Chatgpt, I need lib32-vulkan-icd-loader this ties back to the lutris config screenshot I annexed above.
We see that there's something missing, right? If I install lib32-vulkan-icd-loader, the two error messages there disappear. Unfortunately that doesn't mean they started to work.
As soon as I install that package, I can no longer launch any of the games I previously stated I was able to. Instead I get the following messages:
In order for the games to launch again I have to untoggle those two options.
So I figured: I must have missed something again. Fuck GPT.
After going back to a previous backup I though of installing Steam. My guess was that Steam would install all of the gaming dependencies I need. So I did.
sudo pacman -S steam
1) lib32-nvidia-utils
But to my surprise Steam also installs the lib32-vulkan-icd-loader so I went full cycle.
What am I missing? How can I solve this?

Is it viable to use a Windows VM to run games?
ZORIN OS
Hello everyone, how are you? I'm trying to migrate to Linux, but after trying several times to dual boot and several errors occurring, I gave up doing it this way.
Well, the only thing that stops me from switching completely to Linux is the issue of playing with my friends, we play League of Legends and Rainbow Six, two games that you can't use on Linux due to anti-cheats. Would it be viable to use a Windows virtual machine within Linux to run these games whenever I want? I believe my PC would handle it just fine.
