Controller polling rate stuck at 250hz

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 31. Oktober 2024 - 14:46

I have a PB Tails Crush controller. It is the brand new variant with TMR joysticks. It works out the box on Linux and is recognized as an xinput Xbox 360 controller, but for some reason its polling rate wired is only 250hz, while on my Windows installation it gets 1000hz. All other 1000hz controllers work at 1000hz for me on Linux, the PB Tails Crush is the only one I've seen to have this issue. Steam/Steam Input makes no difference. (I test the polling rate using JohnnyPunch's Joystick Tester.)

Any ideas for what could be throttling my controller's polling rate?

Fornite corre en Linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 31. Oktober 2024 - 14:23

Eh visto que hay gente que dice no poder jugar Fornite en Linux, actualmente migre mi laptop a Meat (finamos) y tengo la duda sobre cómo instalarlo al igual que Counter Strike, Valorant o GTA V, eh buscado en otros foros pero no encuentro solución.

Había visto que uno de ella era usar el sistema GerforceNow y Xbox Cloud pero este último hace que se vea del carajo.

Hay manera o deberá tener 2 sistemas este equipo para poder jugarlo

Wine Wayland (Kron4ek Staging TKG) is still blurry under fractional scaling

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 31. Oktober 2024 - 13:56

on kron4ek 9.20 staging tkg amd64, with the registry enabling wayland and the environmental variable `DISPLAY` already set to blank, the window is still blurry (just like in xwayland) on 125% fractional scaling.

when i adjust dpi to 120, the window got even smaller than it under 96, and mouse point got its position biased.

set dpi to 96 in winecfg

VRR on NVIDIA STILL doesn't work properly, even without Multiple Displays!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 31. Oktober 2024 - 10:52

So, let me make this explanation quick:

I am using KDE Plasma 6, I have a GTX 1660 Super. I enabled this setting here to Automatic:

(it was on automatic before)

VRR, at least for me has a lot of really tedious black screen issues in many different games and applications, it causes the entire screen to black out and until I exit a said program that for some reason causes those issues, it will remain as a black screen and will not show any output. This is of course, until I disable the option.

I don't know if it's because my monitor is a Freesync monitor, and not a G-Sync certified one, but either way, I'd like to know if others experienced this kind of thing and/or have found solutions to the problem itself.

Monster Hunter Wilds crashign with D3D message

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 31. Oktober 2024 - 08:22

Initially i was having a crash report message with no additional infos, then on steam community i found someone with the same error and managed to figure out that deleting CrashReport.exe and CrashReportDll.dll from the folder gave me the actual error `Fatal D3D error (2,E_INVALIDARG, 0x80070057`, which looks more like a Proton error, any idea on how to fix this?

Distro: NixOS

Video card: Nvidia RTX 4060 with nvidia beta drivers (565.57.01)

CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13620H

Less hop / Faster route / Exitlag or NoPing or Mudfish alternatives on Linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 31. Oktober 2024 - 06:19

Has anyone migrating from Windows found an alternative that isn't mudfish?

I did try Nord but it lowers my download speed quite substantially from gigabit to 100mbps.

Also for anyone curious how this works or hesitant, as I've seen lots of posts downvoted to high hell.

It reduces my ping by connecting me via the AJC (subsea cable from Australian East Coast to Japan) for example, for a Japanese game server, rather than going through my ISP route connecting across to the other side of Australia (West) then Northern Territory, then Singapore, Then Japan.

This is a massive must have for lots of us in countries that are further from games, as we get lowered response times of upward 50ms, or in my case because I skip half of my country as well as 15 or so other hops, nearly 80ms.

This might not be as applicable if you're in the US obviously, as you guys don't have to jump so far to play on an NA server.

Dota 2 Won't Start

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 31. Oktober 2024 - 05:35

So I switched to linux about 2 weeks ago, first distro I used was Garuda but I have a problem with VAC running Dota there, I switched to Arch (I've followed every tutorial that exist to install Arch and to setup the game) and then this pops up (Image below).

Did I missed a step or two?

I never add -vulkan on my launch options, I cannot check the in-game settings because I cannot log in, I've tried to add -safe_mode and -gl on the launch options but it won't work, I also tried to use the "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compability tool" on Compability option (Selecting proton version) but it kills Dota process before I even get to the black starting screen (Game window).

I've tried another games like Minecraft Java and Sword of Convallaria and it runs just fine without any problem and with even better performance than back when I ran it on windows.

but

I just want to play Dota :')

So... uh... I did something to my Steam Deck, and despite WoW being installed on the SD card still I can no longer launch it, and when I try to launch Battle.net it can only access games on my "main" drive (which is tiny and not where I download anything to)

Enabling Wayland Nvidia KDE fullscreen tearing

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 31. Oktober 2024 - 05:06

Does nvidia still not support fullscreen tearing for all applications on kde plasma? I tried KWIN_DRM_NO_AMS=1 but it resulted in a black screen on wayland. Some of my native wayland games still have more input lag than when running them natively in X11. I have adaptive sync off and am running the games at fps higher than my monitors refresh rate but it still feels laggy. It makes me not believe that enable tearing for fullscreen applications is working.
