I want to play this game , i already saw plenty of ppl doing it, even with setups close to mine and more or less install and hop in to the game, so it has to work somehow.

I got AMD GPU 6xxxXT and CPU 5xxxX3D Series and EndeavourOS.

I tried several Proton versions, let the game start trou SteamTinkerLauncher and a couple of start options like:

PROTON_LOG=2 steamtinkerlaunch %command% --launcher-skip --intro-skip --skipStartScreen -USEALLAVAILABLECORES

I cant load into the game because it freeze at 54%. ChatGPT told me after i fed him with some logs that its manly because of DX12 and Anticheat.

Here are some examples from the log:

-3690.167:01a0:0274:warn:vkd3d-proton:vkd3d_allocate_device_memory: Memory allocation failed, falling back to system memory. -3690.504:01a0:0344:warn:threadname:NtSetInformationThread Thread renamed to L"odin" -3690.526:01a0:022c:warn:seh:OutputDebugStringW L"[2025.05.29-14.27.33:408][ 0]LogAnticheat: Error: NvAPI failed to initialize\r\n" -3690.551:01a0:022c:warn:seh:OutputDebugStringW L"[2025.05.29-14.27.33:433][ 0]LogStreaming: Warning: Failed to read file '../../../Engine/Plugins/Runtime/SunPosition/Resources/SunPosition.png' error.\r\n" -3706.806:01a0:01a4:warn:seh:OutputDebugStringA "Shutdown handler: cleanup.\n" 3706.806:01a0:01a4:warn:seh:dispatch_exception "Shutdown handler: cleanup.\n" -3707.300:0030:046c:warn:threadname:NtSetInformationThread Thread renamed to L"wine_threadpool_worker" pid 74142 != 74141, skipping destruction (fork without exec?)

If u need more informations, pls dont hesitate so ask me about it. i'm sure i can provide them.

Pls by the love of god, navigate me trough the debugging. I'm craving to play this game so hard.

What's the current state of 8bitDO Pro 2 controller support? I was looking into getting some decent controller and 8bitDO Pro 2 looks promising.

Does it work well with Linux? I mostly play games from GOG (native or through Wine). What is needed for controller set up?

I used the game launcher version Lutris script: https://lutris.net/games/need-for-speed-world/
Which downloads version 2.2.2 and had to update it to 2.2.4.
Used winetricks to install vcrun2022( otherwise the game will crash with missing call in msvcp140.dll)
But once the game launches and if I check task manager, at first it shows it's using 60MB of RAM for 1min after which it just goes to 0 and stays there even after 30mins.

Tried:
Wine 10.8
Proton-GE 9-27
Proton-GE 8-26

Any idea?

Running Fedora Workstation 42.

While playing Minecraft, my cursor is not locked to the center of my screen. If I am in windowed mode, the cursor will exit the Minecraft window. Additionally, when I open any menu in the game, my cursor is not in the center of the screen where it should be. Help!

Hello everybody!

I recently started using Linux Mint and started setting up a couple of my favourite games via Lutris, I do not have much experience with setting up games under Linux yet.

When I attempted to install Might and Magic 7 via the GoG Connection function it went through the installation process normally (I used the Wine + GOG option in the selection from the launcher). When I then attempt to boot the game, it doesn't launch and throw me the error box "Some files are missing, Please Reinstall"
I did attempt to reinstall the game then, but it gave me the same error message.

Does anyone have a similar issue or a potential way to fix this? Cheers in advance.

I'm having some trouble playing halo infinite. I just installed the game for the first time today. I wanted to play some firefight, so I find a lobby and the map loads, then I get a message telling me that Easy Anti Cheat has removed me from the game.

Is this a new thing? From what I've heard Infinite should run just fine on Linux. Is there something I need to do to get the game working in multiplayer?

I'd really like to play as I played the offline tutorial against bots and had a blast.

this only happens when I use the appimage, when I install the flatpak version it show an icon. then why don't I just use the flatpak version? well... at least on void linux the flatpak version of sunshine have some visual issues, and we don't have void package for sunshine here, even in the void-src (our version of the aur), so my only option is the appimage version

I have tried using programs like gear lever and at least now an icon appears on the wofi menu, but still doesn't appear on the status bar. is there a way to fix this?

Hi everyone,

Can someone give me the basic steps to play HDR games on linux. I primarily want to play cyberpunk 2077 on it.

Edit:
My current setup:

• KUbuntu 25.04 (GNOME, Wayland)
• Innon 32m2v HDR monitor (HDR works in Windows)
• GPU: RTX 4080 Super
• Driver: NVIDIA 570 proprietary
• Using Steam with Proton GE 10_3 )

Here’s what I’ve tried:

• Enabled Wayland session
• Enabled HDR on Display settings
• Installed VK_HDR_layer from Zamundaaa's GitHub but not sure if it's working properly
• Installed gamescope
