Crimson Desert FSR4 - 9070xt

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2026 - 16:06

Hey there!
I recently got CrimsonDesert and the in game settings only FSR3.1 is available.
Im already running PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 but i was wondering if this game is supposed to show fsr4 already in the in-game menus.

Also a bit of a more general question: is there a way to confirm that the FSR4_UPGRADE command is actually working? Specially with crimson desert that is already in native quite "shimmery" i keep wondering if im just gaslighting myself into thinking its actually working.

Thanks!

Why do people have low priority regarding native Linux games?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2026 - 15:09

If we keep buying games that does not support Linux then we are sending the devs a clear message that they should not care about gaming on Linux.

When I am bored and wanted a new game then I am always filtering so I only see games that is (hopefully well) support on Linux such as Silksong and Stellaris.

It is rarely (but it can happen) that a game is so great that I allow it even without Linux support.

Why dond you want Linux to be taken serious as a gaming platform?

Optiscaler in Cyberpunk in Epic via Heroic

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2026 - 14:35

As the title states. I bought Cyberpunk 2077 in the Epic store, later switched to CachyOS, installed Heroic and now I'm playing it. I use the PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 flag so in-game FSR4 is working. But since FSR Redstone stuff is out, I'd like to try FSR 4.1 and FSR 4 frame gen. And I think I need Optiscaler for that.

I have Goverlay with Mangohud and Optiscaler. It works when I use the starting parameters in Steam. But in Heroic, I can choose to start Mangohud directly - it works. But I can't get the full Goverlay _with_ Mangohud and Optiscaler.

I've seen some threads but none of their responses seem to work. I'd like to avoid installing Optiscaler directly into the game's bin folder.

Any ideas are appreciated!

Verifying Steam Deck compatibility

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2026 - 14:25

Does anyone know of a way to check Steam Deck compatibility without having an actual Steam Deck device?

We have a playtester that tested our game, Deckgammon ( https://store.steampowered.com/app/4401100/Deckgammon/ using his Steam Deck and found issues with clicking on menu links. I’ve done the development on a Linux desktop using the Godot 4.x game engine, so I’m 100% comfortable with Linux compatibility (as well as Windows), but I don’t have a Steam Deck to test, and they are virtually impossible to purchase now without overpaying. Does anyone have any recommendations on verifying gameplay on Steam Deck without having an actual device?

cannot play battlefield 4 and neat for speed heat

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2026 - 13:45

Hi, I'm having trouble playing with the EA Launcher. I've only been playing for about a week, and the problem occurred after I hadn't played for two days. Finally, I tried logging in, but the EA app gave me this error: "Your Game Failed to Launch. An Error on Our End Caused Your Launch to Fail."

I've switched to several Proton versions, but it didn't work. Turning off the overlay didn't work either. I even reinstalled it, which took about six hours. I thought the problem was solved after reinstalling, but it turned out to be the same. Is there a solution here to fix the problem again? Thanks.

Tech support - latest trend - "I trust only ChatGPT"

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 30. März 2026 - 13:19

I spend my time answering - to multiple threads already - same pattern repeats.

I answered with exact solution that require OP to install some single package or run command in terminal.

As response I getting:

  • "it still does not work in steam".
  • I assumed OP tried my answer and it did not work for some reason - so I continue wasting my time debugging for free OP problem.
  • then OP saying - "oh ChatGPT just read this thread and gave me the solution - thanks chatgpt"
  • and the solution - exact my post

People do not willing to even copy single command to terminal if "it human response".

But when it "chatgpt response" - they do everything it say.

What a time to be alive
