I have a 2016 MacBook with a 2.9 GHz Quad-Core i7, 16gb of 2133MHz ram, and an Intel HD Graphics 530 running on macOS Monterey version 12.7.4. I'd like to use it to play some older games that aren't very demanding like CS and Cod 4 (and maybe even Project Zomboid if it runs), but I'm curious if it would even work. I don't want to remove macOS because my family might still use the computer too, so I want them to be able to. Would the process be as simple as downloading Linux Mint (or something similar) onto a flashdrive, testing it from there, installing it onto the drive, and then dual booting to Linux whenever I want? Or is it going to be a big pain that could ruin the laptop and remove macOS?

Anyone else dealing with this issue in Steam?

I've had two games update and it will show a couple of gigs pending, then continues downloading the entire game. Both are using Proton Experimental

Diablo IV Hogwarts Legacy

It's frustrating because I have an hour set aside to play and now I have to wait. This has never been an issue before with any game in Steam.

Hey, I'm looking for an Android emulator like Gameloop which supports games like CoD or PUBG by default with keymaps but can't find any for Linux, any suggestions?

I've been putting up with it for a while but it's pretty annoying.

Is anyone using flatpak steam on Wayland.

I have the following flatpak installed from flathub

• com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl
• com.valvesoftware.Steam
• org.freedesktop.Platform.VulkanLayer.gamescope

My use case runs the heroic/steam launcher in a gamescope session.

I'm running my flatpaks with flatpak run --command /use/lib/extensions/game scope/bin/gamescope -- steam/heroic com.valvesoftware.Steam/com.heroicgameslauncher.hgl

Heroic runs perfectly fine, but not steam. It used to work like 1-2 years ago. But now I'm unable to run steam.

I'm not asking for support. But, is someone running a similar setup (steam on gamescope on Wayland)? And if yes, what kind of setup are you using?

Hey all, over the past 24 hours I've tried installing Digital Combat Simulator on my Debian 12 Machine, to no avail. I've tried installing a total of 4 times, on PortProton, twice on standard Proton, and now on Lutris. Every time, the game doesn't open. It crashes before launch.

I've been dumbfounded as to why, and even on Lutris I just recieve an error (Link) despite using the Lutris install script. I've tried following the various tutorials on this sub and on Github. I can't get it to work, for the life of me. I don't know if it's user error or what. I tried installing the requirements with winetricks vcrun2019 corefonts xact d3dcompiler_43 but the same things happen.

I don't want to install an 150gb game for the 5th time in 18 hours. How do I get this to work?

My specs:

GeForce RTX 4070 Ti

13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-13700F

I'm on KDE Plasma X11 and Debian 12 Bookworm.

I want to see all your MangoHud configs. Do you use the Horizontal one for most of the time to get distraction free? I got interested to customize it further to look something like the top bar in this website. Can it be achieved like that?

I've recently switched to Linux and I can't get SimRail: The Railway Simulator to start. Every time I click "Play" it loads a bit but then just stops again. The game also doesn't even open a window. I've tried the tweaks people used on ProtonDB but it didn't make a difference. Everything seems to be up to date as well. I also haven't found anything online about this.

I'm running a Ryzen 5 7600X with 32GB DDR5 RAM and an RX 7800XT on Linux Mint Cinnamon 22.1.

I really hope you guys can help me get this fixed as I don't wan't to go crawling back to Windows.

Hello,

I have been searching for a program that can control the screen on my NZXT Kraken, but haven't found any software other than liquidctl and gkraken which don't give control over the screen. Has anyone found anything working for this?

Thank you!

As the title states, whenever I load up GTAV enhanced, rockstar launcher loads forever then eventually, inside the launcher, says GTAV is running and to exit.

I’ve done majority of the recommendations from protonDB especially removing the 3240220 folder and launch. Tried all proton options, etc. Anyone else have any other recommendations? Throw questions at me and I’ll see if I’ve done it!

Any suggestions will be appreciated, thanks!!

Hi I'm new to Linux and I heard that CKB Next is good for changing DPI on your Mice if you have a corsair mouse, but my mouse won't pop up on the devices tab. What should I do?

Asked a few days back abt installing some games on Linux. After searching up a bit, I've manged to install all except for Brawl Stars. Bluestacks dosen't work(I've tried changing to 32-bit), and waydroid dosen't support Brawl Stars. There is also a surprising lack of APKs available(I've tried opening all APKs I could find from google onto Waydroid directly, but none of them worked). Maybe it's what is needed to run Brawl Stars? Google says that "All client code is written in Objective-C and C++, and server code in Java." I don't know if I have to install Objective C or what its about(read something about GNUStep?) Can anyone advice me on what to do? Will LD-Player work as an alternative? Thanks.
