How do I unpack multi-part GOG installers?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. Mai 2025 - 18:28

Not Linux-specific, but how do I unpack multi-part GOG installers? innoextract and innounp only work on single-part installers no matter what and gog_unrar.py seems to be broken for some reason.

How to play Honkai Star Rail on Linux with 120 FPS and no lags and stuttering via Lutris

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. Mai 2025 - 17:46

Intro:
I recently tried playing HSR on Linux Mint and had no success in finding a way to play the game without any stuttering issues. After taking a snoop around the Discord dedicated to the third party launchers on Linux i saw some fixed the issue by using umu launcher which sadly didn't work for me. So I tinkered a lot and found out a way that worked for my setup (listed below). This is also not meant to be a professional guide. So if I got anything wrong please correct me in the comments below.

My Setup:

  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800x
  • GPU: GeForce RTX 3060
  • Driver: nvidia-driver-570-open
  • OS: Linux Mint
Pre-Installation Steps:
  1. Download Lutris and the Honkers Railway Launcher in their respective Flatpak variants
  2. If you haven't already, download Wine- and Protontricks aswell
  3. Follow all the Honkers Railway Setup steps
Wineprefix Setup Steps:
  1. Open Winetricks and select "Create new wineprefix" and hit Ok
  2. For Architecture select 64bits and choose a name of your liking
  3. Now click "Install a Windows DLL or component"
  4. Select the component you want this wineprefix to have. I recommend atleast installing "vcrun2020" and "d3dcompiler_47"
  5. Optionally you can also download DXVK here
  6. After you are done choosing hit Ok again
Lutris Setup Steps:
  1. Launch Lutris and add a game manually
  2. For the Name and Sort name type in: Honkai: Star Rail (you can also add the release date if you want)
  3. For Runner, choose Wine
  4. Now go to Runner options and select the default Lutris Wine version (for me that would be "wine-ge-8-26-x89_64"
  5. Now go to Game options and add the following, after you are done hit save
  • Executable: Select the path to your HSR installation and add /patch/jadeite.exe
  • Arguments: Write out the wine path of your StarRail.exe (If the game is located outside your wine prefix your path should look like something like this "Z:/path-to-game/StarRail.exe", if the game is located within the wineprefix "C:/path-to-game/StarRail.exe" including the quotation marks. Outside the quotation marks add "--" without the quotation marks)
  • Working Directory: Chose your HSR installation folder
  • Wine prefix: Path to your wineprefix
  • Prefix Architecture: 64bit
Post-Installation Steps (optional):
  1. See if you can run the game by pressing play in Lutris if it launches you did everything correctly, follow along to enable 120FPS
  2. If opened close the game.
  3. In Lutris when selecting the Game there should be a Wine symbol with an uparrow next to it press that uparrow button.
  4. Select "wine registry"
  5. Now go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER/SOFTWARE/Cognosphere/Star Rail/ and sort by name
  6. Find a REG_BINARY called GraphicsSettings_Model_h(bunchofnumbers)
  7. Open it and you will see HEX on the left and Text on the right. Unlike in windows you cannot edit the text directly.
  8. The first line of HEX should be "7B 22 46 50 53 22 3A 36 30"
  9. Erase it and replace it with "7B 22 46 50 53 22 3A 31 32 30"
  10. Hit ok and close the registry
  11. Launch the game again and enjoy 120FPS.

Afterword:

Hopefully this helped some people who had problems using the Honkers Railway Launcher and were getting a bad performance.

Ask anything in the comments and I will see if I can help :>

xLODGen Terrain LOD Mesh generation failing on Linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. Mai 2025 - 17:18

The LOD generation will complete, but there will only be textures and not meshes in the output folder. Looking at the SSELODgen_log.txt I see this for every worldspace.

Terrain LOD meshes generation error: LODGen process error, exit code C0000135

I searched everywhere online for this error, but there's nothing about Lodgen on Linux.
Can anyone help me figure out how to get it working properly on Linux? This is the last thing I need to ditch Windows entirely.

I also installed xact xact_x64 d3dcompiler_47 d3dx11_43 d3dcompiler_43 vcrun2022 dotnet40 dotnet6 dotnet7 via protontricks to the prefix and am running xLODGen through MO2 that was installed with Rockerbacon's MO2 Install Script.

About leftover files after an uninstall

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. Mai 2025 - 16:46

Hey guys, Arch user with a bit of OCD here. I prefer keeping my system clean without any leftover files and i have a doubt. Whenever i uninstall something with the sudo pacman -Rs Xsoftware, are there any leftover files from the software that doesn't get removed?(Like the registry entries from windows and empty folders where the software i installed used to be) If yes, how can I find and delete them.

Thank you for your help in advance

Doom: Dark Ages actual Linux Performance

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. Mai 2025 - 15:08

To those who’ve been able to play Doom (I know there are other issues, that’s not what I’m asking), how is the performance so far? Have you compared it to windows? Not sure if it’s a game that’ll run as well as Windows due to forced RT so was curious what you all have reported.

Assetto Corsa auf Linux mit Ryzen-Notebook

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. Mai 2025 - 15:05

Hallo,

ich habe Assetto Corsa schon auf meinem Haupt-Linux-Rechner laufen, udn es macht richtig Spaß.

Ich habe es da installiert, mit Proton 5.10 gestartet, danach mit Proton-GE,e s hat eine ganze Zeit gedauert, und nun läuft es. Der Rechner ist ein Ryzen 5300 32GB RAM, NVidia 1050-TI.

Nun habe ich ein recht neues Notebook, AMD Ryzen 5825U, 15" Full-HD, 32GB RAM, Graphik auf Ryzen.

Es ist installiert, der erste Run mit Proton 5.10 ist durchgelaufen. Der Run mit Proton-GE läuft ohne Unterlass und endet nie, es wird nichts grafisches angezeigt.

Hat jemand Tipps, wie man AC hier zum Laufen animieren kann?

Danke für Eure Tipps!

Denuvo will lock you out of games on Linux, SteamOS, Steam Deck if you keep changing Proton versions

Gaming on Linux - 15. Mai 2025 - 14:33
Although for some of us this is a well-known problem, it has appeared again with the release of DOOM: The Dark Ages so it's worth a quick PSA to remind people about Denuvo activation limits with Proton on Linux, SteamOS / Steam Deck.

VRR flicker on Bazzite

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 15. Mai 2025 - 14:31

Hello dear community, I have an very unpleasant experience with some games. For example GTA5 enchanced is locked to 120 fps it does not drop 0.1 lows are in 117 and its still gives me issues on my monitor. Refresh rate fluctuates from 70 to 130 more or less. It flashes so hard I think it can cause an epilepsy attack. Tried with fullscreen and borderless but nothing seem to help. I have not had this issue on windows 11 (but I had a lot more severe performance issues) My card is 7900xtx and my monitor is 165hz with freesync premium distribution is Bazzite 42. Anything helps really.
