How to get Steam to run on GPU

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Nov 2024 - 3:49am

I went to play SCP:SL and it told me it was running on integrated graphics even though I have a good dedicated GPU

Arch detects it fine

The game works fine just it doesn't use the GPU how do I fix this

what game should I play??

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Nov 2024 - 2:36am

Apex banned because EA thinks a "small player base" is mostly cheaters (Not saying there isn't cheats on linux, there is https://youtu.be/0oGB5Q7u8J4 )
What alternatives?
I don't like overwatch that much, its to cartoony

and most new cod games are blocked due to anticheat I think. I just want to play a game with movement as smooth as apex is preferably exactly the same movement system or smth idk.

Can Chiaki do Cloud Gaming?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Nov 2024 - 2:19am

Hey guys, I don't know if this is the right sub to ask. However, I have a question. I don't currently own a ps4 or a ps5, however I was thinking about getting PS Plus in order to stream games to my pc. I am currently using Bazzite. My question is: can you set up Chiaki without owning a console for cloud gaming? Or is it not possible?

(Sorry for bad english.)

Is anyone doing any gaming whatsoever via USB-based installs?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Nov 2024 - 1:29am

I'm just wondering if any of you are doing this. I know that old-school "persistent" installations couldn't load graphics drivers, but I'm assuming you can run GPU-accelerated games just fine from an SSD via a USB enclosure?

If this is possible, I am tempted to explore.

Modding Sonic Adventure DX (steam version) in linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 10 Nov 2024 - 12:09am

Hi, I'm trying to create mods for sonic adventure DX, on it's steam version, and I found a library called SonicAdventureIO which is the one used in windows and mostly all tools are for windows, the problem comes here, using wine causes chaos due to prefixes, and has a lot of crashes, as well as the MUSTHAVE .NET libraries, which won't work on blender, can someone help me or show me a guide to create mods on linux?

gamescope detaches from game process after splash screen?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Nov 2024 - 7:53pm

i use gamescope on labwc (wlroots) to make sure my games open on the correct monitor and create consistency in resolution etc. it generally works pretty well.

but games with splash screens, i've noticed a behavior where the splash screen opens in the nested gamescope window, but when the splash goes away so does the gamescope window. the game process is then running in the background and not visible, cuz gamescope died. i have to then manually kill the game process. games i've noticed this in are The Finals and Space Marine 2 in particular. (they run fine without gamescope, they just sometimes open on the wrong monitor and i have to adjust settings to get them on my main panel)

has anyone else run into this issue and maybe have a solution or workaround? i was looking through the gamescope docs to see if there was some sort of flag the persist the process or something, but nothing stood out to me.

thanks!

Is a 1060 Max-Q viable with Linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Nov 2024 - 7:38pm

Pretty much the title.

I have a 6+ year old Dell G7 (1060 Max-Q, i7-8750H) and I can game on it fairly comfortably on Windows. I can run most of the games I play at 60+ FPS, a lot of them at 2K resolution.

I recently switched to Linux (EndeavourOS), and I'm not getting very good performance (I tried Nine Sols, OTXO, Stardew Valley, and Dark Souls 3).

I haven't done much tweaking, but looking at protonDB all except DS3 have platinum ratings. I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong or if I just won't be able to run games very well on my hardware.

Thanks.

Newish to linux, not getting performance I expected

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 9 Nov 2024 - 7:36pm

So I used to dual boot windows and Linux on separate drives on my laptop, when I played Minecraft on Linux I usually got about 20-50% more fps.

I later did away with Linux so I’ve unfamiliarized myself with it but since then I’ve built a pc, it has a 7900 xtx for the gpu, I picked up a second ssd yesterday, installed the newest version of Linux mint cinnamon, did some initial setup like checking for drivers, updating everything, the norm.

When I enter “neofetch” in my terminal, for the gpu it says “Radeon 7900 xt/ 7900” so it doesn’t think I have the 7900 xtx? (On windows it says I have the XTX) and on windows Minecraft I get about 1700 fps, on Linux I get 700.

Why could this be? Is there anything I can altar about the standard os that would improve gaming performance like how windows 11 has gaming mode?

The sole purpose for me dual booting again was because I started hosting a Minecraft server and I remembered it performed better on Linux but if this is no longer the case I feel I don’t need to dual boot and can just use the extra space for stuff on windows
