Come giocare a Overwatch 2 con/senza CrossOver e sistema operativo Linux nativo?
Buongiorno cara community del software libero, oggi vi chiedo un aiuto grande!!! Poiché non voglio assolutamente tornare su Windows in alcun modo ma vorrei comunque una configurazione (il più economica possibile) con S.O. Linux per giocare a Overwatch 2 ad almeno 120 fps stabili (ho un monitor con questo framerate) chiedevo ai più esperti di voi se e come è possibile tutto ciò.
Considerate che: - Dispongo di CrossOver (non mi risulta che ci sia un modo per farlo girare su Linux senza CrossOver ma sono tutto orecchi, se ci fosse, anche se preferirei la facilità di CrossOver) - Ho già avuto esperienza di utilizzo basico quotidiano con Ubuntu e Fedora - Vorrei un case il più piccolo possibile (sono disposto anche a spendere un po’ di più per miniaturizzare tutto… Non una full tower e nemmeno una RTX 5090… Insomma… Il migliore compromesso per arrivare a quel framerate in uno spazio più piccolo possibile e senza spendere una tombola). - Vorrei una scheda bluetooth (e magari wifi, ma volendo qui ho anche un attacco lan) integrata per giocare con mouse e tastiera bluetooth
Senza CrossOver non so dove mettere le mani, quindi mi servirebbe comunque un aiuto passo passo! Grazie di tutto 😊 🙏

KDE Plasma 6.6 Shaving Off 100MB Of Memory Use, Fixing DrKonqi Crash Reporter Crashing
OpenMW 0.50.0 for Morrowind is out with more enhancements and better gamepad support
My test results on a used Ryzen 4000 laptop. I bought it for €200.
Portal 2, 1080p High, 60FPS. Avoid "Shader Detail: Very High" for better results
GTA IV, 720p Medium, 50FPS. This game isn't fully optimized for PC, but it still runs fine for a AAA open-world game.
Left 4 Dead 2, 1080 High, 50-60FPS. It somehow feels more smooth than other games.
Dead Space 2, 1080p High, 45-60FPS. 45 FPS over long distances, but still playable and smooth.
Dota 2, 1080p Low, 60-80FPS. It's a competitive game, so responsibility is crucial. But I had some stuter in this game.
The games run perfectly. The only issue is the stuttering. The temperature also reached a maximum of 24 degrees Celsius. That's great for a used laptop.
I've also tested and finished a few AAA games, like Batman Arkham City and Rise of the Tomb Raider, and they're playable on low settings as well.

Black Ops 3 in 2025 on Linux
Hi. Recently I installed Linux Mint Cinnamon fully onto my HP omen laptop. It’s been running fantastic and all of my games are working fine.
There has been one issue. Me and my friend want to play Call of Duty: Black ops 3. I mention this because, if you know about Black Ops 3 on PC in 2025 you know it’s extremely unsafe to play online without a patch.
I can’t figure out how to install these patches (T7 or BOIII) on Linux. And even if I do, I don’t think i’ll be able to play with my friend on windows who doesn’t own the game in the same way (I’m on steam, he’s not).
I was looking into installing windows again to dual boot, but it doesn’t seem as straight forward. Any advice?
I’m pretty new to all of this, so any help is appreciated.

Once Human doesn't stutter on HDD drive
Switched before to a Proton vesion that uses async & it reduced the stutters a lot.
But following a suggestion on ProtonDB & moving the game files to my old HDD removed all stutters. Anyone knows why this is the case & if this can be replicated with a SSD using some specific launch command?

Modding spore on linux
I've been using Ubuntu to game for a while with no issues now. Recently wanted to get back into spore, I have a legit install on steam so it runs through proton but I wanted to know how possible/difficult it would be to mod. Will I just be better off with the windows dual boot.

I did mount use acetone the image. Then using lutris with wine ge 8 26 x86-64 I tried to install and then I received message on screen Severe "This game must be installed off the CD". Sad thing is I just was able to run the IIIrd game and on installing 4th NFS it killed the 3rd and doesn't work itself. Clumsy english well pardon my obscure syntax.

Frametime consistency on CS2
Really pleased with how well this game runs, and is clearly better than the numbers I was seeing on Windows.
I recorded 794 Avg, and 332 P1 when I wasn't screen capturing (I'm using OBS with CPU based recording and it was using around 8-9%, so it lowered on them on this run, although not enough to matter)
On windows, I usually got around 700 with 285 P1 with a lot of recorded stuttering (from CapFrameX)
Do these differences matter? Probably not, but on Windows the game still felt inconsistent in some rare cases, Here I've not seen a similar case yet.

Kernel panic on Proton update
I have a problem with Steam; when Proton updates, it sometimes causes kernel panic and corrupts any recently downloaded data. I don't know what to do
It might be because I have Proton installed on a separate SSD rather than the one my OS is on, and I'm moving it right now. If you have any other suggestions for fixing it, I would appreciate them.
OS: KDE neon User Edition x86_64
Kernel: 6.14.0-35-generic
CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700X (16) @ 4.665GHz
GPU: AMD Radeon RX 6700 XT
RAM: 32GB

Help with new vegas Linux modding
Hey guys,
I am trying to play modded new vegas on my laptop that's running Linux mint. I've tried to get it to work through limo but nothing I've done seemed to work. It says the mods are enabled and installed but when I launch it they don't run. I'm running it through steam but I also have a GOG copy.
Could anyone who uses Limo please provide me a step by step way to install and get fallout NV mods working?
Thank you for your time

Is there any way to make Steam on Linux Mint recognize games previously installed on Windows?
I still have my program files steamsapps folder with all my games but steam doesn't even recognize the hard drive it's on despite me mounting to it.
