Is there a way to launch games using Reloaded II mod manager alongside custom DLLs at the same time? (Steam/Proton)
Title pretty much says it all. When launching a game through Reloaded-II the game ignores launch commands in Steam’s launch options.
For example, I have mods setup for the greatest game ever made (Final Fantady Tactics) and they work flawlessly, but I also want to use FFT-Fix, a custom .dll that enables ultrawide support as well as other features. When I launch the game through Reloaded-II it will ignore the launch options I added to Steam, thus ignoring the FFT-Fix DLL.
Anybody know a way to have both work at the same time? Thanks!

unable to start ubisoft connect
i just installed linux mint yesterday for the first time, so i am completely new to this.
i downloaded ubisoft connect via lutris yesterday because i am playing through the older assassins creed games right now. i am able to log into my ubisoft account and i can see my games, but if i try to launch one of them or ubi connect itself, this error will come up. i tried adding libraries (sudo apt install winetricks dotnet48 vcrun2019 d3dx11_43 corefonts), changing almost every setting inside lutris and reinstalled it 3 times on different hard drives but nothing will work. i also noticed that most of the tutorials are atleast a year old, so maybe something changed?
could somebody of you maybe help me with this problem? i would be very glad, im trying to get it work since yesterday and at this point its getting frustrating.

Anno 2205 (steam) won't run on Ubuntu Studio 25.10.
I have been running Ubuntu Studio on an all AMD system as a linux newcomer for 2 or 3 months now. My CPU is a TR 2970WX (24-core/48-thread), and GPU is RX6700XT. Of the about 20 games I've tried to run so far, the only one that doesn't work for me is Anno 2205. (Anno 2070, however launches just fine)
In Proton Experimental, Ubisoft Connect launches fine, does all of its sync stuff, then attempts to launch Anno 2205, which opens a black window that immediately crashes. I've tried all the things I can see have worked for others on ProtonDB, and some other AI hallucinations. But nothing seems to work. It looks like most people who get it to work are on some form of Arch. But as recently as a month ago, I see someone on Ubuntu reports it working with no environment variables applied.
I can't seem to will myself to declare it a lost cause forever. Can you help me? A clean proton log running Experimental without any further launch variables will be included in the comments.

Thoughts on Valve’s Project Lepton and what it could mean for Linux
Logitech G903 Mousewheel on Fedora
I have recently moved completely to Linux and am struggling with my Logitech D903 mouse wheel whilst playing games like CS2.
It has a hyperfast scrollwheel which can be locked with a button on the mouse, and when I used to use this on Windows I found that 1 click of the mouse wheel whilst "locked" would, on CS2 for example, move down 1 space to the next weapon. Now on Fedora Workstation however, the slightest movement on the mouse wheel is picked up and moves throughout my loadout. I can see this on the browser too if I scroll on a page and lightly touch my mouse wheel.
Is there anything I can do to make this work how I am used to from Windows? On Windows I used Logitech G Hub which I understand is not available on Linux, but maybe G Hub is what was stopping this from being an issue on Windows?

Titanfall 2 freezing 1 second after Startup on Linux Mint 22.1
Problem Description:
Up to a few weeks ago, Titanfall 2 started without issue via Steam with Proton. But for a few weeks now, it freezes in the menu screen shortly after startup and is stuck there. You can see the background move at startup for a second before it freezes. It seems like other users on ProtonDB report similar issues starting a few weeks ago: ProtonDB - Titanfall 2. I tinkered around quite a bit, but I can't seem to find a solution. I have a hunch that is has to do with the connection to the respawn servers. Any ideas are appreciated.
Specs and start options:
Linux Mint 22.1
Kernel: 6.8.0-90-generic
Vulkan Instance Version: 1.3.275
Steam Launch option gamemoderun %command% -noborder -windowed
Proton 9.0-4 (tried other versions)

Adapter help
Need for Speed Heat has another issue: No DualShock detected no matter if I toggle Steam Input on or off.
My specs:
-Acer Aspire 3 A315-42-R1B0 (Ryzen 5 3500U,Radeon Vega 8,24GB of RAM and 1TB SSD)
-OS: elementaryOS 8.1 Circe,based upon Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.
A TL;DR of what is happening: Bought NFS Heat on Steam's Winter Sale,with the intention of installing either Unite or Evolution mods. I opted for Evolution, then I solved the problem I had with FrostyModManager on my previous post on this sub by running it on normal wine,now game boots to title screen and mods apply correctly.
However I have another hiccup,why does the game doesn't wanna pick up any controller? I tried both my DualShock 3 and DS4 with different cables and on the 3 USBs,but the game only picks up my keyboard. Is it the EA App interfering with Steam Input in some way or the other?
I run Steam Flatpak, and I have the following Proton Experimental arguments set up here:
WINEDLLOVERRIDES="dinput8=n,b"%command% -dataPath ModData/EvoMain PROTON_EAC_RUNTIME=1
I'm not sure what is going on,if someone is kind enough to explain I'll thank them.

an FPS gauge app?
In order to try to find a balance between performance and eye candy for any game, I like being able to see the FPS in game. I know not every game has such a built in feature. For games that do not, what is a good app for this? Also, I am guessing that such an app I'll have to start up before the game, am I right? If not, please enlighten me. Thank you.

Issues with ARC Raiders on Bazzite. 1st day on Linux.
Game runs great on Windows 11 and this Steam FPS Graph should just be one line unless Frame Gen gets enabled (at least that’s how the Steam overlay works on W11).
I do not have frame Gen enabled but am seeing a green and red line, red line can’t get above 60 FPS while green line gets up to 150 or 160.
Game feels like a stuttery mess. Almost like it can’t figure out if it’s capped at 60 or something. CPU way underutilized as well.
I am on Proton Experimental “Latest and Untested.” I also tried the latest Proton GE and that did not fix it.
I have PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 %command% in the Steam launch options.
I have Power plan mode on “Performance” instead of “Balanced” at the system level.
VRR is on and refresh rate is set to 280Hz in system settings.
Vsync off in game.

OSRS/Runelite on Cachy
I am very new to Linux but I have had good luck with figuring out most issues except for Runescape.. Is there a way to run Jagex's launcher on Linux, preferably through Faugus? Runelite runs natively, but Jagex and their infinite wisdom requires you to open it via their launcher which is does not support Linux. I downloaded the .exe and I get this error when I try to launch through Faugus.

Dualshock 4 touchpad issues
I use a pretty somewhat old Dualshock4 for when I wanna play a game on controller, but I have the issue of the touchpad really annoying me. It functions as a mouse cursor, which can mess up my aim when I'm just trying to play a game with the controller normally. Any way to circumvent this? I tried using steam input but either I'm doing something super wrong or it's not the solution. Will provide extra details if asked to!

Rocket League: low/limited fps
About a week ago I installed Cachy OS and I've been trying to get a nice desktop in Hyprland with Caelestia Dots. I also tried installing Rocket League, which is one of my favorite games, but I noticed my FPS seemed limited by the render quality. If I set the render quality to high performance, it went up to 120 FPS but stayed there. I'm using Proton Experimental with the Heroic Launcher. Any help?
I'm using a translator; I speak Spanish, in case you find any spelling mistakes.
