Ashes of Creation installing issues

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25. Dezember 2024 - 23:59

Hey guys,

I have come to you with a request of help. I am trying to install Ashes of Creation and get it up and running. Now the Login won't continue and I am at my wits end. It won't let me log in and I am stuck in an endless loop of watching the authenticating window.

I am running pop os 22.04 with Lutris and Proton UMU. If you guys can help me out I would be grateful!

Overwatch 2 FPS drops after 2 Rounds

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25. Dezember 2024 - 23:18

Hello everyone,

I am Playing Overwatch 2 on Arch Linux / Hyprland on Steam.

There is only 1 Problem:

The Game runs perfectly fine capped on 160fps, but evertime after 2 rounds of playing. In the 3rd round suddenly every Input of mouse and keyboard drops the fps to 30 and its unplayable. Restarting the game fixes everything.

I got a Razer Deathadder Essential and a Blackwidow V3 with Polychromatic.

Graphicscard is an Amd rx6650xt with an i7 CPU

I already disabled shadow precache and tried different versions of proton.

Restarting the Razer-Deamon doesn't do anything.

The fps drops starts at anytime during the 3rd round.

Can anyone help?

Question about bazzite

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25. Dezember 2024 - 22:43

I have tried a few different Linux distros but have always ended up back on Windows. I want to try again since a lot of the issues I had with Linux have been fixed. I am thinking of Bazzite since it seems like the most 'it just works' distro as of now (I have no problem with tinkering and such, but I want something that is reliable, hard to mess up, and works most of the time). However, I have some questions:

  1. I do a lot of programming and game development. I can install Godot through Steam, but I don’t think there is a Flatpak for the Rust compiler. Does anyone have any experience with development on Bazzite?

  2. Has Wayland and Nvidia truly become as good as I have heard? I tried Fedora last year, and it mostly worked. I could not use Wayland at all, but X11 worked decently. I still had some issues, which is why I switched back to Windows. I have heard that Nvidia on Wayland is no longer a problem. Is this true?

  3. Are Flatpaks good enough? I understand that with an immutable distro, I will mostly be relying on Flatpaks for most programs, but I have heard that they can have problems

Cyberpunk 2.2 Low Performance (Nvidia 3080, Nobara)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25. Dezember 2024 - 22:41

Hello everyone!
Im having some weird issues with Cyberpunk, all settings set to Ultra with RT off on Windows nets a mostly smooth 90 fps at all times. However on Linux its struggling to hold 60fps with dips below 50 and highs of about 82ish. Im on Nvidia 565.77 and have an i9-9900k at 5.0ghz so I'm very confused by this. Im also using GEProton9-21 but it makes little to no difference between that and Proton Experimental.Is this to be expected? So far its the only game that the machine seems to have issues running along with Stalker 2 but that game is a mixed bag with performance on both Windows and Linux.Also the test WAS done on a drive formatted to btrfs for linux and NTFS for Windows.

Thanks in advance!

Specs:
CPU: i9-9900k @ 5.0ghz
GPU: RTX 3080 FTW3
RAM: 32GB DDR4 @ 3200mhz
OS: Nobara 40 KDE flavor Nvidia iso

Windows OS: Win 10 Pro 23H2

Salt and sanctuary not launching (steam)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25. Dezember 2024 - 22:30

Hi there, I have following issue:

Basically when I press play in steam the play button shortly turns blue as if the game ran and then turns to green (play) again.

No error message, nothing. Tried different proton versions, tried no proton at all since it's supposed to have Linux native version too. All the same.

My setup:

openSUSE tumbleweed, R5 5600, 6950xt, everything runs on either sata SSD or nvme. Steam is native (not flatpak).

I can't run CS 2 native anymore and don't know why

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25. Dezember 2024 - 22:20

The first time I installed Fedora 41, the game ran successfully. However, I’m not sure if it stopped opening natively because I installed Mangohud or for some other reason. Since then, I’ve had to use Proton to run it, but with Proton, I’m unable to play online matches.

I already tried to reinstall the game but it doesn't work.

Here is the .dmp file. I think the relevant lines are these:

8bitdo Ultimate 2c mouse events

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25. Dezember 2024 - 21:35

Hi! My 8bitdo ultimate 2c controller, which I just received, is sending mouse events. In 2.4GHz mode, touching the right trigger starts moving my cursor up, holding it down moves it down, but letting go makes it go up again. in Bluetooth mode, the left stick controls the cursor, and touching the left trigger this time makes it do the same thing that the right trigger did in 2.4GHz mode, and some buttons act as clicks. This started happening after going to windows and updating the firmware, so that should be up-to-date. Also, running the "xinput disable <id>" command makes these issues go away, but after restarting the controller, the problems arise again. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

SteamDeck keeps on validating games - How do I fix this?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25. Dezember 2024 - 20:45

Hi,

Since some months ago, after I switch off the steam deck for more than x hours (usually 6~8) it then decides to validate games (Warframe in my case) even if there haven't been any updates and I have shut it down properly (both game and Deck).

How can I prevent this from happening?

Thanks!

Mint desktop to steam deck and visa versa folder sharing?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 25. Dezember 2024 - 18:44

My primary use for this is I have a Minecraft world on java. Which I use a few mods for and I'd like to be able to either drag and drop the folder from either device to either device OR sync the save folder across devices. I do not want to use realms or an online server for this. I want it to only be between the two devices and dropped over my home connection.
