Marvel Rivals on Steam not showing NetEase launcher when starting the game

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. April 2025 - 18:58

Just as the title says. I did't even know there was a NetEase launcher that I had to click in order to play the game.

I always clicked the Steam Play button and send me directly to the compiling shaders screen. No custom commands on Steam, the only different thing is I use Mesa 25.1.0 devel as it works best with my GPU but as far as i know that doesn't affect the way the game behaves apart frome the rendering.

Here are my specs and some data if it helps.

Mesa 25.1.0-devel
Proton experimental-bleeding-edge-9.0-184954-202

OS: Nobara Linux 41 (KDE) (Wayland)

CPU: AMD Ryzen™ 5 5600X
GPU: Intel® Arc™ A750 Graphics (DG2)
RAM DDR4: 2 x 16 GB KINGSTON FURY 3200 Mhz

I am interested in testing the new Shader Compilation Mode but as fas as I know that can only be activated on the NetEase launcher.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Newish to Linux: Best distro for light gaming and show streaming?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. April 2025 - 18:39

Hi All,

Recently built a new PC and threw a fresh SSD into the old one with the intent to install Linux. I'm wanting to connect it permanently to our living room TV for light Steam gaming, WoW, and show streaming through Amazon, etc.

I've tinkered with Linux in the past so I'm confident I can get it setup if you guys can steer me in the right direction distro wise.

The PC is two or three years old with an AMD chip and 3060 GPU.

Is there anything else I should consider?

Thanks!

No Hesi assetto corsa 15-20 fps max

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. April 2025 - 18:24

Hello my friend and I are on Linux trying to play no hesi server on assetto corsa. I have an rtx 3050 ryzen 5 7535HS and 8 gigs of ram. My friend has an rtx 2060 ryzen 5 2600 and 16 gigs of ram. On windows the game ran fine however every time we load into the server our fps never gets out of the 15-20 fps range and its consistent. Changing some of the graphics settings don’t seem to do anything. He is using bazzite and I’m on arch Linux with all drivers properly installed etc. anyone have any ideas? My fps on windows on this server was close to 60-70 fps same for him as well. I’m aware this is heavy on ram and my ram is very lacking for this day and age but I have a 64 gig swap file and it’s the same issue with him and he has 16 gigabytes.

Setup deadzones on DS4 controller

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. April 2025 - 18:05

literally the only thread I found was this and it didn't solve anything.

So I bought those replacements with hall effect, payed a lot of money for replacing them (as a 3rd worlder) and now I get home to find that they drift more than stock ones (fuck my life).

So now I am looking for a way set up deadzones that does not require me to run something that replaces my controller each time I want to use.

I tried jscal,it literally does nothing and forgets my configuration after disconnecting (yes, I know how to rtfm). I wanted to try KDE plasma's built in configuration, but there's no such option.

Marvel Rivals Not Launching on Linux after Latest Update

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 11. April 2025 - 17:33

Hey everyone, I'm a relatively new Linux user and I'm having trouble getting Marvel Rivals to launch after the most recent update. Previously, the game was working for me (or at least launching).

Now, when I hit play in Steam, it says "running" but no game window or launcher ever appears. Eventually, Steam goes back to showing the "Play" button.

I've tried a few things like:

  • Switching between different Proton versions (including Proton Experimental - Bleeding Edge).
  • Using the launch option PROTON_LOG=1 %command% .

Has anyone else experienced this issue on Linux or Steam Deck after the latest Marvel Rivals update? If so, have you found any potential solutions or workarounds? Any suggestions for further troubleshooting steps I could try would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks in advance for your help!
