Heya all, so as the title goes, I've had HD2 keep crahsing on my whenever I, or the Automatons, are using laser weaponry (havent tested arc or tesla weaponry, nor have I tested the Illuminate). I have not been able to get to the bottom of it at all, but alot of people say that it maybe be a mixture of a Proton issue and Shader Cache issue. I have not been able to ger a crash log to tell me anything at all...

All drivers have been updated to the latest update since 05/11/2025, and the OS regularly updates each day. The game is also running on DX11 under Steam launch commands as having it as DX12 does not let me launch the game. I do play with mods, but they have not affected or changed anything, even when testing under a vanilla enviroment.

I'm just wondering if I can get any help to see if I can fix this problem, or atleast make it so that it doesnt crash at either specific or random (even looking at the sky can cause the game to crash).

OS - Arch Linux, KDE Plasma

PC Specs

CPU - i5 13600KF

MOBO - ASUS Prime Z790M-WIFI

RAM - 32GB (16GB x 2) 6000Mhz

GPU - 4060 TI 8GB

Proton Layer - GE Proton 9-27 (GE Proton 10 does not work well, and has fixed some issues when downgrading)

Okay so I’ve been playing Bloodborne on the shadPS4 emulator it works perfectly fine, I wanted to install the ‘Shadows of the hunt’ on nexus which I could do… sorta I can install the part of the mod that just replaces the games files but, the other part of the mod is a ReShade preset that includes TAA via vortmotion shaders and SSAO with bitmasks I can’t exactly install that because shadPS4 is an AppImage and to my knowledge you can’t install ReShade on that. Is there a way to install ReShade on AppImages or atleast a workaround? Please tell me if I’m just being stupid.

I’ve been looking to switch the Linux since windows 10 died. I've been switching distros after finding some I don't like, some don't rely work with my hardware and all sorts. I've been looking at garuda Linux and cachy os. I'm using fedora 43 now. I might switch depending on what garuda and cachyos are like. Side note: I know this really isn't the ideal place to ask but some distros fail to pick up some of my gpus sensors e.g power. Any way around this?

Edit: My hardware:

CPU: Ryzen 7 5800X

Motherboard: Aorus elite b550 ax v2 rev 1.5

GPU: Arc B580

RAM: 32gb DDR4

Storage: 1TB NVME SSD

Probably the single most requested Steam Deck feature since release is now in Beta, allowing you to get your downloads going with the screen off.

Vermintide 2 only works when the "temporary_launcher_workaround" beta is selected on Steam, but Lutris will still load the launcher and the game won't run.

Hey all, I've recently taken the plunge into learning Linux, so I'm fairly new to a Linux DE. I've gone with pop os, and things were going smoothly until I tried to play a game without native controller support for my dual shock 4. I enabled steam input and expected the game to pickup my controller, but the only thing that works is the touch pad, which recognizes the controller as a mouse and keyboard.

So far I've scoped the issue to only games that require steam input to translate an unsupported controller (expedition 33 and MH rise for example), but games with native DS4 support work fine. I've ensured steam input is enabled in the general steam settings, as well as ensuring that steam input is enabled in the per games settings.

I'm using the flatpak version of steam and have not tested the OS native version.

I'm likely missing some key details as I'm newer to Linux DE, so apologies in advance. I've seen similar things discussed in other threads, but usually with other distros and I haven't seen the touchpad being recognized as M&K yet. My thought process is that since the game is receiving input from my controller, surely steam is translating my inputs into something, but maybe it's not translating them correctly.

Any help is appreciated, thank you in advance!

Linux Mint 22.2, total noob.

Hi, i'm trying to set up Leo Bodnar pedals on Linux Mint which doesn't see them as a gaming device. Steam sees it (AntimicroX also) but i can't set it up there since there are no buttons on pedals, and i can't map it in game.

There is this guide in which i got stuck on line 59, i don't know what to do next.

There is this compatibility tool called Protopedal, but i'm not sure how to apply it.

Any help is welcome, i can provide additional info if needed.

I am trying to get replay buffer to save while in-game and push-to-talk working on OBS. Replay buffer works but only if I am focused on OBS, not in-game. Is this a wayland issue or is there a fix for this?

Also, I can use and hear my microphone perfectly fine if I let OBS use it 24/7 but the moment I enable push-to-talk it cuts off all microphone audio. If I press my push to talk key I see the audio slider move up a bit but go back down to zero immediately after, and trying to talk or press it often does not work.

I have the correct audio device selected, push to talk for mic is enabled (push to talk for desktop audio disabled), and push to talk hotkey is bound.

I am using Arch with KDE 6.5.2 and newest version of OBS from official repo (not flatpak). It works fine in discord for me, and have tested OBS with discord open and closed. Any ideas why it might not work?

Again, huge shout out and thank you to u/randomusernameonweb , they're making really good progress on this project and are also pretty chill.

Github link to the project: https://github.com/Weather-OS/WineGDK

This is a discord(not mine) you can join to discuss not just WineGDK but reverse engineering game launchers in general; https://discord.gg/ppXArEEpyj

Just to clarify, YES, Minecraft Java has always been playable on Linux. Bedrock has been playable as well, but ONLY the Pocket Edition/Mobile version that does NOT have Raytracing and has a lower maximum render distance. This project allows you to play the version of Bedrock only available on Windows 10/11, on Linux.

Good day everyone, I am trying to make all of these tools work together on cachyos, I have gotten elden proton to work, but now I am at a loss on how to get seamless coop and the dualsense UI mod to function, there are no apparent previous instructions since the elden proton mod quotes using mod engine 2, and whilst the dualsense UI mod says you can use mod engine 2 for it, nothing is stated on the installation process. My second dilemma is how to get all of this to come together with seamless coop, as I have a super ultrawide display I need the benefits of elden proton, previously I used er patcher but it left me wanting for a simpler method and for the use of a dualsense UI mod.

If anyone could assist I would be wholly grateful

I have recently set up my PC with EndeavourOS (Mercury Neo 2025.03.19) and Farming Simulator 25 does not boot up from Steam. I installed Steam through Flatpak if that matters.

I tried switching to Proton Versions V9.0-4 (as seen on protondb) and Experimental.

GPU: AMD RX6800XT
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600

When i click on play, it says launching for a few seconds, then it says running. A few seconds later it goes back to not playing, so the launch button turns green again as if it immediately crashes.
