This stuff costs a lot of money. I simply want what I pay for, no different than anyone else, even in this sub.

So, if I gamer wants nVidia cards and VR and headsets and HDR monitor we're just supposed to not to use these things?

There are 8 variants:

- Wine-GE

- Kron4ek Wine-Builds Vanilla

- Lutris-Wine

- vkd3d-lutris

- vkd3d-proton

- Wine Tkg (Valve Wine Bleeding Edge)

- DXVK

- DXVK Async

I'm using Lutris with Heroic (for some games). What is the best to choose ? (I have installed proton-GE-bin too)

OS: Arch Liux 6.114-arch1-1 x86_64

Thanks !

P.s.: I have tried Wine-GE v7.25 for RDR 2, but it didn't help :<

After hearing about the new apex-legends ban I wonder how this ban is implemented and if it can't be bypassed.

If you open up the game now it displays that the EAC anticheat could not connect to the backend from that I assume that the only thing stopping you is that the game doesn't allow the use of the linux native EAC - if so, can't one just fake emulate the actual EAC?

If that can't be done I assume there is a simple if statement somewhere in the binary that just checks if EAC passed or not. - can't one just dissasamble and make that if statement never run?

HI, I have been running the Sims 4 through steam since I switched to linux earlier this year, however I've been having issues with dlc I own through Ea. To try and fix the issue I intend to run the Ea app via proton as lutrix didn't work when I tried to set it up.

I have downloaded the Ea app through the website and have run the installer with proton, my question is how to add the actual app as a non-steam game, it is installed as steam_app_0 in the compatdata folder but what specific file do I need to use to launch the app. Thanks

Using pop os 22.04

Hi guys, in these day i discovered that Apex legends have lost Linux support though proton (sad me), but then a question appeared in my mind. What support Apex Legends devs gave to Linux? For what I know is proton that allow game built for Windows to run on Linux, so what's the support that Apex Legends had? If the support it was only don't adding a kernel level anti-cheat or other that can break the compatibility or don't block the already using anti-cheat is more maintain the compatibility than support the game.

Don't take me wrong, i really appreciate when a company say "we don't treat Linux gamer as thrash" but i was curious to know if there is a active way to really support game on proton (without developing wine/proton ecc themself) for companies. And what of support (ex-support) of Apex Legend we are talking about (if i search more on internet the result is only that they are removing support for Linux)

I'm having an issue running Baldur's Gate 3 on linux, every time I click play in Steam I get the following popup:

https://preview.redd.it/56vouhljtnyd1.png?width=315&format=png&auto=webp&s=ddae08bc26dd028e7b1c597fc0f5531a0e424a21

Clicking "yes" takes me to download a Windows .exe which of course can't run on linux. I manually installed the .NET runtime following linux instructions here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/core/install/linux-debian but the game still gives me this error.

Other things I've tried:

- Reinstalling BG3

- Completely deleting every file from steamapps/common for BG3 & reinstalling

- Reinstalling Proton

- Using Proton Experimental, 9, 8, 7

On protondb everybody else seems to be running the game fine, but I don't understand how to get past this error.

Both wiimotes work fine on their own, but if I have one controller bonded, I'm unable to connect to the other.

The same issue comes up on void linux and arch linux.

One controller is regular and the other is wii motion plus, but both connect fine on their own.

I ve watched a video about why ,supposedly, apex removed support because there were workaround to cheat because the anti cheat ran at user level and the cheat at kernel level. Why valve wouldn't make a kernel module that runs EACs at kernel levels (EVEN THOUGH IT ISN'T SECURE). Closed or open this would open A HUGE VARIETY OF ANTICHEAT GAMES eventually. Am i wrong?

The sub's crusade against technical aptitude has gotten more pathetic in recent years and now its incredibly ironic they call themselves a "master race" at all with the ignorance they promote. So much ignorance on Linux because the community has a phobia of anything that isnt plug and play or requires a sub-room temperature IQ to understand.

What used to be a place to appreciate gaming on custom builds has devolved to a sub of some of the most technologically illiterate users I have interacted with, with the most toxic crab in a bucket mentality. People post the most absurd lies there about daily driving Linux and everyone is too ignorant to test and see what is being spewed is nonsense.

Apologies for the rant, thanks for listening fellow penguin gamers 07.

So ive finally gotten fed up with the abuse from microsoft and im thinking about jumping over to Linux (Mint)
just to put it out there i am not *proficient* in linux i did a little bit of tinkering with kali several years back (its mainly why im toying with mint)
I do *not* want to do any form of dual booting. Ideally id play the games id want to play native on linux (assuming theyre supported by Proton) and for games not supported on proton or online games with anticheat id kick up a VM play what i want to play and close it when im done
1. Will certain Anti Cheat prevent me from playing under a VM?
2. If so is there any way around that?
3. Is there any considerable performance loss when passing through resources to a VM?
i also do a fair bit of VR gaming if anyone has any experience with that id love to hear it
Im also sure i have more questions theyre just not coming to mind right now.
Any and all input is appreciated. Thank you in advance!

So a month or two ago I played dark souls remastered and loved it but heard prepare to die edition had better visuals, so I played around with it and aside from iffy performance (which is normal apparently) it runs fine except cutscenes that use the wmv file format don't play, is there anyway to fix this?

Specs are: CPU: AMD ryzen 5 2600 six-core processor X 6 Os: Linux Mint 22 cinnamon De: cinnamon 6.2.9 Kernal: 6.8.0-47-generic Graphics card: AMD ATI Radeon Rx 470/480/570/5

So I finally decided to jump in to wayland since it seems like it's gotten fast enough and stable enough and it works with the nvidia hardware and plasma desktop I prefer. However, it seems like wayland decides which gpu to use and it seems to prefer the lower power options. My gaming laptop has a choice between a Radeon 780M or a RTX 4050. The 780M seems fine for desktop stuff and it has seemed to figure out that when I want to encode a video with nvenc that the 4050 is the better option. However, I don't really see a simple way to tell it which card to use when launching a program and if it's game, I definitely want the nvidia gpu that added quite a bit of cost to the laptop. Some games let you select from inside options like BG3, others don't really tell you which they want. I got used to having a tray applet that let me select between integrated and dedicated and that pretty much locked to the gpu of choice.

TLDR: Is there some way to tell the thing that I want it to launch specifically on the nvidia GPU when I'm gaming and it's on ac power anyhow? And also, a way to specify the radeon when power consumption is actually a concern?
