Classic Unreal Tournament and Unreal now easier to download free thanks to OldUnreal (with a statement from Epic Games)
I would like to see Valve or Facepuch implement the patches into the game, but this tutorial is a big help. I'm glad to see there's an ELF that fixes the problem.

Cyberpunk 2077 reshade doesn't work anymore
So, when i tried cyberpunk 2077 modding, i tried reshade using reshade-proton by kevinkeller, it worked, but after doing a clean install cuz some mods messed with my game, it doesn't work, i did the same procedure, i put the launch options "WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3dcompiler_47=n;dxgi=n,b" %command%" but it still doesn't work. So what will i do?

VRR doesn't work with Bottles
Always ran my games through Steam with Proton and VRR worked fine without requiring me to do anything (beyond enabling it in X11), but now I installed Bottles to play with customization and VRR doesn't work. Can't see an option for it anywhere. Only thread I found about this issue didn't have a solution besides "try closing the launcher after starting the game", but my games (ZZZ, Cyberpunk) don't have one. Where to look? Arch 6.11.7, i3wm, all AMD.

Stalker 2 performance
So obviously stalker 2 isn't out yet, however since we can see the benchmarks for windows, which is using dlss 3 and frame generation, we won't be able to use it for stalker 2 since proton only does dlss 2? Is that correct?
I'm just guessing I'll likely only see 30 fps with my 4060 on medium settings (1440p monitor) until dlss 3 and frame generation works in proton.
If I'm incorrect could someone shine some light on this for me? Will we possibly see a proton update made specifically for stalker 2? I'm just worried on linux we will take a much larger hit on performance compared to what we're used to.

Skyrim, MO2 with Wrye Bash or Mator Smash
I have Skyrim running under MO2 on Artix. Evewwrything works fine except that I can't generate a bashed/smashed patch.
- Wrye runs under MO2 but doesn't see the enabled mods. And doesn't get an exit button so I can't close it without closing the gamescope window and having to clean up the left over processes afterwards. Even so, I can work around that if I can just it to see my mods.
- Mator sees the mods, but crashes with an illegal instruction error when I try and do the merge,
- I'm aware of the native linux port of Wrye, but that won't run under MO2's virtual file system, so it too won't see my mods.
Anyone solved this? I can maybe set it up under VirtualBox and point MO2 at my linux folders and do it that way, but that's a lot of fuss. There's got to be a better way to do it.

Horrible packet loss on cs2
The game since the launch has been unplayable for me, because of a constant packet loss oscillating between 10% — 50%.
Game runs flawlessly on Windows, so it has to be a Linux only problem. I saw no difference in x11 and Wayland.
Packet loss occurs in both mm and community servers.
I absolutely love this game, and I don't feel like dual booting windows just for this one game. Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT: I saw a lot of people talking about bad performance compared to windows. Performance wise, it's actually pretty good for me, it runs comfortably above my 165 refresh rate. Sure, the fps are a little bit lower than on Windows, but it's not a problem for me.

Loading stutter in games
Hi, I'm experiencing an issue in some games where the game freezes briefly whenever it loads new content. Once the content is loaded, it runs smoothly again. Is there a way to fix this by preloading all game assets before the game starts, or what other fix could be it?
i am using lutris and wine 9.21 staging

Testing various Distros for my fav. MMO (Wine req.)
I have been playing Mabinogi MMO since the week of release. I have switched to PopOS several times until they officially blocked VMs in some capacity to block "Multiclient". I swapped back to Win10 just to play this, but i'm also an inhouse-only AI enthusiast who was not looking forward to Window's changes.
Since then, improvements to Wine have been amazing and are in compliance with the games security. Due to this, I have focused on testing different Distros, and 3 specific apps for Wine to run this game.
I have tested Ubuntu, PopOS, Bazzite, Endeavour, Debian12, Batocera, etc... And against the apps in Bottles, Lutris, and Heroic Games Launcher.
My results are more than likely not 100% accurate, but my point blank findings has been at least that most distros work, and flatpaks have little to no reduction to performance.

CSGO2 FPS drops during the match
So I switched from Windows 10 to Linux recently (Ubuntu 24.10 64Bit, firmware version F4) and I knew that CSGO2 was supported for Linux. Everything works smoothly when the game starts but after a couple of rounds I get frame drops and the game becomes too choppy. I tried several driver versions before installing 560. Some of them were OK, until the PC would randomly shut down with no warning and wouldn't boot again.
Nvidia Driver Version: 560.35.03
GPU: GeForce RTX 2060 6GB
CPU: AMD Ryzen™ 7 7700X × 16
64GB DDR5 RAM
NVIDIA GeForce RTX™ 2060 (RTX2060)
Any info of which driver version I should Install, which RTX2060 you're using is appreciated

Steam Game Updates every Day
I recently switched from Windows to Fedora and after installing Steam I simply copied my game folders. After Steam installed the missing files, everything worked perfectly. However, I now always have the problem that Steam downloads an update of several gigabytes (approx. 3-4 GB) per game every day without the game folder getting bigger accordingly, even for games that normally receive very few updates. Since my network connection is not the best, it always takes a while. Can anyone explain why Steam has to download so much data again and again and how I can possibly do something about it?
