Full Modding Guide for Bethesda RPG's?
I've been gaming on Linux now for nearly two years. I've got a main Linux desktop and now a Steam Deck handheld. I've found I can do ALMOST everything I can on windows with gaming, and some of my favourite games even have better performance.
However modding, specifically with a script extender exe, has presented a big of a problem. All the guides I've found work great UNTIL I need SKSE or FOSE. If anyone knows a full guide that includes how to run a script extender I'd be very greatful for completing my Linux gaming experience.
TLDR: Need a Linux modding guide that includes running a Script Extender

Help with Rocket League not running
I'm on Linux Mint trying to run Rocket League on Epic Games through Lutris. I have installed Overcooked 2 using the same method and it runs perfectly but Rocket League won't open for some reason. Can anyone help please?

Helldivers 2 AC
I have noticed quite a few people cheating and hacking in helldivers lobbies, and I know that the games devs will look into stopping that cheating with anti cheats. But what are the odds that the ac blocks linux compatibility?
I know it may not happen, but I'm worried because I do like this game.

Need help with CPU governor and CoreCtrl
I installed CoreCtrl and followed the instructions in the docs to set it up to run on startup and stay active. I have set this profile below for 3D Fullscreen. Am I correct in assuming that it will only be triggered when I run a game? Does it also work if the game is set to Windowed Fullscreen or Borderless Fullscreen? Because I have set the fan to not go 0 RPM but it clearly is in 0 RPM as you can see in the screenshot.
CoreCtrl profile for 3D Fullscreen
The problem is that my CPU governor isn't set to Performance even if I select it from CoreCtrl. I have checked using the command in the screenshot below, while idle and also while in games, but it's always On Demand.
I have tried using other tools like cpupower-gui or directly write to those files as mentioned in this post, but nothing is changing. I'm not sure what's happening with the CPU governor and why it isn't changing. Now I'm not even sure if CoreCtrl is overclocking my GPU either.

Is Steam a 32-bit application on Linux?
Arch docs mention you have to enable 32-bit repositories in 'Installation' step https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Steam, this makes me think its a 32-bit app.
"multilib contains 32-bit software and libraries that can be used to run and build 32-bit applications on 64-bit installs (e.g. wine, steam, etc)."
Is that the same on officially supported Ubuntu? So in theory if we want Steam to work better and have more seamless experience on modern computers, we want it to be built for 64-bit? Does anyone know if we anticipate this anytime in the near future?

Nvidia Drivers
For context I updated my Nvidia drivers and now it locks my monitors Frame rate at 60 frames per second. I did Sudo Pac-Man -S nvidia Anyway to have the updated drivers while having 144 hertz?
I am on Garuda if that helps

Upgraded to Fedora 40 KDE and X11 is finally gone. :/ Since I can no longer use GWE, how do I automate my GPU fans?
I cannot figure this out. GWE worked so perfectly for me, but apparently they can't get it to work on Wayland. Now that X11 is gone, I can no longer use it. Is there another option?

Steam Client won't display
Hi switched from Fedora 39 Gnome to Fedora 40 KDE today, after setting up the usual Fedora things went to install steam and launch - launched the login and does appear to log in but does not display the client after and will not list in activities when alt tabbing. System info below, let me know if any other info needed. Do NOT have family settings enabled, so I don't think it's that bug.
AMD RYZEN 7 7700X
32GB DDR5 CL32
INTEL ARC A770
FEDORA 40 KDE PLASMA 6
To clarify, this is the native Fedora Steam client
Edit, to add - tested flatpak client, UI launches then after login but elements are not interactive and window goes unresponsive after a bit
Edit edit for people in the future that may search this and need an answer - closed steam, opened terminal and used the command. This worked for me
steam --reset

Fan Control for Gigabyte RX 7900 GRE
I bought a Gigabyte RX 7900 GRE video card two weeks ago and noticed that the fans do not work until the GPU temperature reaches 70 degrees Celsius. I've tried adjusting the curve and setting the fan speed to 100%, and I realized that these settings work but only after the fans activate at 70 degrees Celsius. Thus, the fan control is functioning, but not correctly. I suspect this might be a hardware issue. Does anyone know how to fix this?
P.S Also i tested on Windows, everything works fine

I think the Ubisoft connect launcher may not be working anymore
starts up normal but nothing pops up or if it does it still kinda broken
If you move the window around it turns black
I am using bottles to use Ubisoft connect and the same issues occur with lutris too. I have tried using the different runner like Wine GE, Proton. Either an issue because of the new look it got or Ubisoft just hates Linux.

NVIDIA + Wayland + power management
So I've been frequenting Linux desktop news for a while, and it seems like the last pieces of the NVIDIA + Wayland puzzle are coming into place with explicit sync support. I'm considering making the jump back to an NVIDIA card, but one thing that concerns me is the alleged lack of power management functionality when using the NVIDIA control panel on Wayland? If I understand correctly, it requires a genuine X11 session to provide control over the feature.
https://github.com/NVIDIA/nvidia-settings/issues/69
Being able to power limit or undervolt these power-hungry cards is important to me, and I'm curious whether anyone running a Wayland session has figured out a solution. I can currently do it in CoreCtrl on AMD just fine. I don't even necessarily need any of the other control panel settings exposed, I just want the power management controls. Maybe there's some kernel parameter or command line tool that will do the job?
Thanks.

Ac Syndicate render distance graphical glitch
Recently I decided to reinstall AC Syndicate but I noticed I have this weird graphical glitch with anything in the distance
As shown in the image, the anything beyond a certain point is like half rendered only, and it makes the game really hard to enjoy because I can barely see beyond my immediate environment.
How do I fix this glitch? I am on KDE Neon (User edition) running the game through lutris. Latest drivers, RTX 4060.
If there is anything I need to include then I will edit this post to add that info.
Thank you all in advance

Source engine games won't fullscreen (Bazzite OS)
The game appears in the corner and I can use the mouse. Have to use keyboard to switch to windowed mode, then back to full screen to fix it. But it will always launch like this

Steam Locked to 60 FPS in Game Mode on Bazzite
I just installed Bazzite on my desktop, and I am having issue with Steam Game mode. My FPS is locked to 60 even though I am playing on a 120hz TV. In desktop mode, I have set my refresh rate to 120hz, and I can play at high framerates when launching through the desktop Steam app. However, in Steam Game Mode my refresh rate refuses to go above 60hz. Is there something I'm missing? I can't find any other settings in game mode that would affect my max refresh rate.
Steam Game Mode Performace Settings
Allow HDR: On
VRR: On
Enable Tearing: On
Disable Frame Limit: On
Refresh Rate: Off

is this at all possible on linux? have a wmo optical and want to get the most out of it
Steam client can not leave fullscreen on Linux Mint.
Not Flatpak. It has been like this ever since I installed it. The Steam client can not leave fullscreen on Linux Mint. Clicking on the fullscreen button in the top right doesn't make it go windowed, dragging the top bar of the window does nothing, and small mode is also fullscreen.
This is very annoying because when Steam is open I can not use the cinnamon panel unless there is another application on top of steam, fullscreen, or Steam has to be minimized.

Pop!_OS vs Bazzite (2024)
I am very experienced in windows/mac, with a mild experience in Linux (I used one special distro sometimes at work and have a steam deck that I use a lot and have f*cked around with its custom Arch mildly for emulation and what not. I also tried manjaro for like a week 2 years ago and the bugs killed it for me).
What are the pros and cons to each in mid 2024? I am looking for something to 90% on my desktop (pretty new amd cpu, pretty new nvidia GPU), keeping a win11 partition for the few games that only work there.
just through googling ive narrowed it down to these two (i think). I know pop OS is bigger and more popular and but beyond that I could really use the advice lol.
