Hey all,

I am in need of a new controller and Valve has yet to release a new controller, so it's down to DualShock 4 or DualSense.

I already have several DualShock 4 controllers, but the DualSense is slightly cheaper right now. I only use controllers via Bluetooth, never wired, if that makes a difference. My question is, do these mix okay in Steam (for multiplayer games) or should I spend the extra to stick with DualShock 4 for now?

Thanks for any input, cheers!

Howdy, pugdev here (tried posting on r/Deltarune but got karma gated)

This is an unofficial port of Chapters 1, 2, 3 and 4 of DELTARUNE for Linux

It mostly works but there are a few issues to be aware of

Since the new chapters are not free, there is no game data included in the port files, you need a valid copy of DELTARUNE, and then run the shell script there

I already had done an port of the LTS beta a couple months ago

Known issues

At the beginning of Chapter 3, there is a video thats supposed to play, however, video_play() appears to be broken on Linux, leading you to a black screen with error Cannot load avcodec - video playback not available

Because of this, I hacked a little workaround, where the video is supposed to play, you get a black screen for 40 seconds (the duration of the video) and the video plays with mpv instead, I even manually added subtitles

Another issue is, when loading saves, you may notice that the music is gone, to fix this, open your save file and go to line 569, and change the values from . to , or vice-versa

I think I managed to find a workaround on the LTS port, since I only encountered this bug when creating a new save on Chapter 1 (second slot), but this issue is still present here

Its recommended to avoid updating the game through steam as that can break the port

Yes their new EULA is a concern so read up on that before diving in. It's the Same EULA for all T2 games now, including ROR2 and GTA6.

Anyways, free game that's free to keep forever if you add it to your library in the next 3 days.

Hey everyone,
I'm new to Linux gaming and planning to set up a dual boot with Windows. Based on my research so far, the distros that seem the most interesting for gaming are Nobara, Bazzite, and CachyOS.
Do you have any favorites or recommendations between these?

Also, is there any spreadsheet or website that lists games which perform better on Linux than on Windows?

My system specs, in case it helps:
GPU: RX 7600
CPU: Ryzen 5 5500

Thinking of switching to openSUSE Tumbleweed and want to know how it stacks up for gaming. Do games perform anywhere close Bazzite? Any pitfalls or optimization i need to consider? I currently have a 5070Ti in my main PC, but might try it first on my 2nd PC with a 6800XT.

Appreciate any real-world feedback or advice! Thanks!

Greetings! I want a GPU for my home pc, and I am struggling to decide. Rx 9060 xt 16Gb or RTX 5060 ti 16 Gb, so happens that both of them are ~450Eur here... Well At least some models. I am using Linux 100% of the time on this machine, and I do play casual games like Warframe or ETS 2, etc.

People say AMD is better but upscaling tech is better on Nvidia side. I know people hate AI stuff, but it is not going away, so might choose the best option? No? Also Nvidia reflex is available on linux while AMD anti-lag is not as far as I know. Also, Cuda cores to run basic models locally? What are your opinions? What would you go with, if the price was within 10 Eur difference?

I just made a tutorial on getting Hardware Accelerated PhysX on NVIDIA GPUs for Batman Games under GE-Proton.

And Sorry for the extraordinary recording quality

To be fair though this was the first benchmark run on Windows, whereas CachyOS I’ve done a benchmark before. But still.

Idk why the performance gap is so huge. Is this the fault of Windows? Or AMD?

Just moved from Windows to Fedora 42, have steam installed. But I just can't get Company of Heroes 3 to launch, I have tried the latest Proton 10.01 I think but you click play and it says running then nothing happens and after a few seconds it says play again.

Anyone managed to get it running?

ProtonDB says runs perfectly after tweaks but I can't see what those tweaks actually are

I own a Attack Shark R1. Not a great mouse, but I love it. There is an app for rebinding side buttons in Windows, but I can't make it run in Linux, or it won't be able to change binds.

I've tried input-remapper, but it can't rebind my buttons. What software do you recommend? Thanks.
