Hello!

We've been working the last few weeks in adding proper native Linux export a retro engine we've been working on.

Today we've finally managed to integrate everything, it should supports native Linux binaries as well as the AppImage export.

We've tested Kubnutu 25, Fedora and Linux Mint.

Any other major distros we should be testing into??
We're also wondering if supporting .deb and .rpm export would be worth adding or just native binaries + AppImage is enough.

Thanks!!

Hi!

Did some very brief benchmarking, nothing scientific. All FPS are average. All games on max details.

System: 7600 Oced, 9070 XT (2.750 Mem, -75mv), 32 GB DDR5

OS: CachyOS

UE5 gains are quite amazing!

I want to try exporting some models from roblox studio and vinegar used to open before, but now it doesn't. Why? I've tried flatpak run org.vinegarhq.Vinegar and this error message came:

ERR Error! err="setup: exec: \"/home/.../.var/app/org.vinegarhq.Vinegar/data/vinegar/kombucha/bin/wineserver\": stat /home/.../.var/app/org.vinegarhq.Vinegar/data/vinegar/kombucha/bin/wineserver: no such file or directory"

I've read that roblox is blocking wine support even more. The only thing that still works is sober but you can't really open studio with it. What can I do? Is there a different way of getting roblox studio to run?

I installed the flatpak version of vinegar and I'm using linux mint, if that's important to know.

If I launch the same title through Steam it's almost instant (even if there's another launcher in the middle). On Heroic launcher it takes upwards of 2-3 minutes.

i5 13600K

32GB DDR5 6000

PCI-E gen 5 (no, not NTFS, default CachyOS format)

AMD 9070XT

Tried it with all sorts of different proton versions. Nothing really seems to make a difference.

Some games I need to use Heroic launcher for (i.e. Epic games titles like Fall Guys) because running them through Steam won't work (I get an authentication error).

I own the ubisoft connect version of the crew motorfest, I've installed Faugus launcher, installed ubisoft connect and installed the game. However, it won't launch, it acts like it's launching and then it just exits and kicks me back to ubisoft connect.

Anyone able to help at all please?

I'm trying to get Frosty Mod Manager working on Nobara with DA: The Veilguard. I was able to use this tool to get a working install for DA: Inquisition, but sadly it has not been updated to work with Veilguard. It doesn't seem like the author has any intention to update it.

For VG, I'm using this Windows tutorial and thus this version of Frosty. I've added FrostyModManager.exe to Steam and run it under Proton 9, and all works great until it tries to launch the game, when it complains that it cannot create symlinks. From my googling this appears to be a common error, but I can't find anyone who has fixed it, only people asking if it has been fixed. I also found a reference to some Frosty v2 build that apparently runs natively on Linux? But again following links has led me to a dead end.

Is there a way to fix this symlink error? Has anyone got any version of Frosty running for Veilguard? It's one of the last holdouts in my total gaming transition, and I'd love to get it working again.

I can't type text using the Russian and Ukrainian layouts in games. Instead, “?” appears. I checked the locale.conf and locale.gen settings. I tried launching games with different launch parameters, but that didn't help either. I tried installing CachyOS, but the same thing happened. Maybe someone knows how to solve this problem?

Can I play Helldivers 2 on Fedora without getting banned ? My only worry is that my steam account gets flaged cause I for example have razer genie running in the background or something silly like that. Since afaik there is 0 offical support for Linux.

I would like to play the game but not if theres even a low chance if I can get my account banned for something silly (Used to play it on Windows)

Hi everyone,

I wanted to share some findings that took me days to debug. If you are experiencing weird GPU performance drops, crashes, or settings being ignored on Linux (especially NVIDIA/Wayland), check how you are launching your games.

The Problem: The Steam Systray Context Menu (Right-click -> [Game]) completely ignores the user's "Launch Options" configuration. It bypasses the selection dialog and the saved user defaults.

Two different examples of this failure:

1. 7 Days to Die (Critical Stability): I specifically set the game to "Launch without EAC" for stability.
   • Launching via Library: Respects the setting.
   • Launching via Systray: Bypasses the setting and forces the EAC version anyway.
   • The Result: On my NVIDIA/Wayland setup (RTX 2080), this forced EAC launch causes massive synchronization stutters that trigger a hardware safety measure, locking the GPU into the P3 Power State (Idle). Performance drops to near-zero until a full driver restart.
2. Where Winds Meet (Configuration Error): I have the game configured to use DirectX 12.
   • Launching via Library: Starts in DX12 as expected.
   • Launching via Systray: Ignores the preference and forces DirectX 11 mode instead.
   • The Result: This causes the game to re-compile shaders constantly and disables DX12-specific graphical features and optimizations.

The "Valve" Factor: This bug has been documented on GitHub for 7 years (Issue #6181). I recently tried to open a new issue (#12901) to highlight that this is no longer just a "missing feature" but a hardware stability risk in 2026. Unfortunately, it was instantly closed as a "Duplicate" by moderators and buried in the old 2019 thread.

It seems the legacy Desktop client's tray menu is rotting away while Valve focuses on the Steam Deck, even when it actively ignores critical user safety/performance configurations.

TL;DR: Avoid using the Systray menu if your game relies on specific launch options (DirectX versions, EAC-off toggles, etc.). It’s broken and has been for almost a decade. Use the big green "PLAY" button in the library to ensure your settings are actually applied.

Note: I used an AI to help me translate my technical findings into English.
