Hello again,

Given the trouble that Wine/Proton has with running desktop applications from after 1999, and that I am baffled every day my Lenovo laptop turns on again, I have been interested in running Windows on a virtual machine to cover my bases. However, I have spent several hours trying out three different venues with little to show for it, so I was wondering if any of you guys have experience in this department, or can direct me to any good resources. The Windows in question is 64 bit Windows 7 (bought it half a decade ago on a whim).

1. I initially had a lot of success with VirtualBox, as I was able to install Windows very easily and set up a shared folder with the host machine. However, when I tried to run a program (WC3 World Editor), it would first complain about needing directX 8.1 or higher, or a lower color depth. Color depth could not be modified, and the installed DX version was 11. When I ran in compatibility mode, I got a different error: "WINTRUST.DLL" was missing. I tried downloading and putting it in the game folder, but it made no difference. Eventually, I resolved to reinstall Windows. But now, it freezes during installation, which eventually crashes my whole VirtualBox. I haven't been able to find a fix for that either.

2. Next, I have tried QEMU KVM. I have managed to install and run Windows, but unlike VirtualBox, I haven't found any way to send files from the host to the guest. Not with virt-manager's own folder mounting, or with a samba file server (don't seem to have any internet on the guest machine). There are still options, but it is frustrating that all the guides online just don't seem to work, whereas for VirtualBox there just wasn't a lot of documentation for the problems I encountered.

3. Tried to use PCEm, but it fails to recognize any roms in the roms folder.

Title. After downloading back some of my games (i have way to many) in my notebook after making a clean install of Linux Ubuntu, i thought everything was okay, since all of my cloud saves where up to date, and i thought i would have some way of playing the games normally on Steam.

I can play all of the games, but when i started some of them, i noticed that my cloud saves where not there! It happened with most of my games, but not with all of them, so i find it very strange.

Is there an easy way for me to synch my saves on linux? I can say that i tried to force proton experimental on the games, since i saw on some other posts that it was supposed to work, and it did, for one game, where it loaded the cloud save, but the same did not happen to other games.

Tekken 8 runs fine natively but I'd like to get parity with the Windows version. This includes three things:

1) Ultra wide working properly

2) Mods working properly

3) FPS unlock working properly. At the moment the only way to do this on windows is with a closed source tool (Tekken Overlay). If there's a workaround on linux please let me know.

System info (if it helps):

Actually, fps isn't that low, it's just how it was on windows, but very often it for a second drops to 20 or something like that. Also every time i join game it compiles vulkan shaders, which takes pretty long time and in addition to all of that when I closed settings sound completely disappeared and didn't appear til restart

If you're a lover of point and click adventure games, you're going to want to watch the new trailer for Old Skies from Wadjet Eye Games.

It's commonly accepted that Apex Legends supporting Linux was rather important for our community. So for anyone who is still looking for a replacement, there is this game.

Don't look through the old Farlight videos, the game was reworked earlier this year. The fighting mechanics were changed to be more like Apex and the graphics were replaced to be definitively not like Apex.

So don't get deceived by that outrageous UwU art style and the patent-breaking "catch a creature into a ball" roundabout way of picking up grenades from the ground. It's just Apex down to the keybindings, and the newest map is like an AI was given a task to generate an Apex map.

You'll be missing some movement and urban fighting though.

Since the game is fairly recent, the game client is not on its last breath when adding a feature breaks couple of others.

Lobbies sometimes have bots (not now rly). Posting this because even half of a percent of Steam Apex players switching would be solid.

My game doesn't have a a cursor lock option (as I am using it on proton)

Is there a way to add cursor lock to the game through an app?

(On arch)

Dear fellow gamers,

While hyped for BG3 I've been longing to play but this sound glitch is maddening, it cracks, beeps, breaks up and sometimes just disappears entirely.

To rule out issues I've disconnected all hardware to a bare minimum, CPU (Ryzen 7), GPU (R9 390), RAM (16GB), and 1 SSD, 1 USB for mouse / keyboard. HDMI for sound and image, I've tried different headphones.

But this glitch persists, on Windows (with all known fixes tried) and now on Fedora as well. Even swapped the GPU to an older one, same deal on sound.

What the Hells could this still be??

PS: The twitchy flags and slightly twitchy clothes I can deal with, game looks good otherwise, though I've seen people run without those with the same GPU. Issues are exactly the same despite Windows/Linux, although Fedora leaves more resources for the game and is hence preferred.
