Maybe someone else already post about cloud saving working but I would like to say, just to make sure for those that maybe have the same question about achievement from GOG, yes they can be unlocked using Heroic Launcher, maybe you don't have the overlay like EG, but it is working c:

Sorry if this has been answered before i wasn't able to find a proper answer.

Lets Assume i have 3 disks:

Disk X - Windows

Disk Y - Linux

Disk Z - Steam Library

Is it possible to use Disk Z with the games on it in The Windows and Linux version of Steam?

Can i just add the library path and call it a day or is this not supported, compatible or similar?

This would save the hassle of re-downloading stuff or having it stored twice.

Hey, I installed the game via steam but it refuses to launch. I have tried using different versions of Proton, including GE and experimental to no avail. This is odd, as other games run well. Any clues? Running Cachyos.

I was playing some games like Crash Bandicoot 4 and REPO and the graphics looked perfectly fine, then I started playing TABS and it felt somewhat deepfried. The next day when I tried to play Crash 4 the shadows and reflections had broken into giant squares, same thing with REPO and it happens with DOOM Eternal.
Any idea as to why this happened?

Tengo una PC Dell Latitude E6440 con una GPU Intel HD Graphics 4600 y no es compatible con Vulkan, lo que me genera numerosas dificultades al tratar de utilizar Wine o Proton para los videojuegos. ¿Qué podría hacer?

Fallout New Vegas

So, in my infinite capacity for masochism, I decided to try and install Mod Organizer 2 for Fallout New Vegas. Way back in the Windows days (3 weeks ago), I used MO2 to heavily mod FO4 (shoutout to Kinggath!) and it was no problem. I'm following a combination of a video ("How to Install & Use Mod Organizer 2 on Linux" by Intelligent Gaming") and a forum post on Nexus Mods ("Using Mod Organizer 2 on Linux the Right Way") to guide me and I've gotten as far as using ProtonTricks to install vcrun2022. The problem is that I get a popup warning that there is a SHA256 mismatch. Should I try another vcrun, like vcrun2019 or something?

(Please understand that I am very green when it comes to Linux.)

I'm on Linux Mint Cinnamon

What are your thoughts on the imminent migration for new gamers into the Linux community?

Especially with the impending end of Windows 10 support.

Anyone else having visual artifacting on the Foundry level in the Tony Hawk 3 + 4 remake? Other levels work just fine but on this level everything starts looking fine, but when I start moving and look at certain angles black square textures start enclosing on the screen. It looks like mist effect that is missing a texture or something, but either way after a second or two my entire screen is black and becomes unplayable.

I tried different settings, windowed/fullscreen mode, proton experimental, ge-proton, and so on. But nothing seems to fix it. I also looked on ProtonDB but it seems like others are having no issues (on Steam Deck at least).

GE-Proton10-9 was released, enabling us to eventually use NTSYNC in games.

By this, we have the basis to use what's already present in our kernel since ~6.14: https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom/releases/tag/GE-Proton10-9

The author says:

Enable with PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1

NOTES:

1. Your kernel must be patched with ntsync patches. If your system does not have /dev/ntsync then your kernel does not have the patches required to use ntsync.

2. Some applications, mostly 32 bit, may also need PROTON_USE_WOW64=1 when using ntsync

To get up an running though, we need to check if a) your kernel supports NTSYNC, b) if the module is present plus c) if it's loaded at boot (or at all).

a) Does my kernel support it?

In short, if you are on kernel 6.14 and later, chances are good. (Source: https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-6.14-Char-Misc-NTSYNC)

To check, you could nano this file: nano /boot/config-"$(uname -r)"
And check for the presence of this line: CONFIG\_NTSYNC=m

If you don't even find the "ntsync" phrase, you are out of luck with the current kernel of yours. You can install a later one with tools like this: https://github.com/bkw777/mainline

NOTE: Be aware, installing other kernels kicks you out of the current update cycle of your distro in regard to, well, kernel patches. You then have to take care of kernel updates yourself, always, from now on, unless you return to what the distro issues as default or "HWE" kernel.

b) With kernel support being ensured, we can check for the presence of the module:

find /lib/modules/$(uname -r) -name ntsync.ko

should yield some output like this /lib/modules/6.15.6/kernel/drivers/misc/ntsync.ko

(if the numbers are different, it doesn't matter. If there's no output at all, there's no module around though, which might lead you back to point a)

For more info on the module, you can check with modinfo ntsync

c) Checking if the module is already loaded (most likely not) or if it can be loaded

First things first, check for it being loaded via checking the presence of this directory: ll /dev/ntsync

(if the output throws an error, it's not present for now, but might be later on)

Case 1: If you already see the directory being present, you are done and can follow up with the instructions from the GE-Proton author which I quoted at the top.

Case 2: If you don't see the directory yet but have managed to succeed in the points a and b from before, just read on.

For manually loading the module, you can simply issue sudo modprobe ntsync

Then check with ll /dev/ntsync again and also see if lsmod | grep ntsync now finds the running "ntsync" element.

If you want to test your games now, you can do so, but mind the above instructions (at the top of this post) on how to tell the runner that you want to use NTSYNC.

To unload the module (and, in turn remove the /dev/ntsync dir), use sudo rmmod ntsync

With these commands, you can already test the impact NTSYNC will have for the game you bave in mind.

Bonus: Making sure to automatically load/enable the NTSYNC module at boot

The folder in question is /etc/modules-load.d where we have to create a file which tells the system which modules to load at boot. We should pick a proper name to later being able to determine what the file does and why it's needed. After all, you might forget about it or have other users around.

So we create a properly labelled file via sudo nano /etc/modules-load.d/ntsync.conf

With these contents (one line, no extra characters)

ntsync

Once that's done, you should reboot and see if /dev/ntsync is already around. If it is, the module got loaded properly. You can use ll /dev/ntsync for that.

Removal:

If you want to remove the auto-loading method again for whatever reason, you can do so via deleting the one file we've created: sudo rm /etc/modules-load.d/ntsync.conf

After a reboot, everything is back to default and no NTSYNC module will get loaded.

Side notes:

At some point, some distros might incorporate their own ways of auto loading the module. The worst thing to happen might be that the system tries to load the same module twice, which won't work. The first instance will likely win out.

Anyhow, I would recommend to take note of this change you've made to your system. Just to be able to remove the one file we've created and let the distro's default take over, if they ever implement the auto loading of NTSYNC.

But until then, "our" method is a proper one to have around and should yield you the vital NTSYNC module presence.

When I turn it on proton 4.11-13 I see Configuration Script failed [2000] and then it goes to a black screen. I clicked esc to get out of it. I can't seem to find that much information on the internet about spore on linux mint. I heard people talk about in on manjario and arch linux but not linux mint.

Title basically. I have steamtinkerlaunch installed through ProtonUp-QT. I have God of War set to launch using STL as the compatibility layer, but I cannot find an option for Flawless widescreen. I was told it is included with STL? Any help would be appreciated.

Not using Arch, by the way.

I can't really tell which is the root issue for this, however this problem isn't seen on windows from what I can tell, so literally any game unless it's super old (like from early 2000s) has the stable 74FPS if I cap it, however sometimes it feels like fps drops to 30 tho on the graphs everything is still on 74 just like before. Now I think it might also be a monitor issue, I'm on nobara Linux plasma using monitor with freesync, tried disabling it, still same thing, the configuration of the PC is RTX 3060TI, Ryzen 7 7900x3D, 32GB RAM. Doesn't seem to be an asset streaming issue as well, I launched the same games on both SSD and HDD, the result is the same

Hello everyone, I'm wondering if I can install and run Genshin, ZZZ and Valorant on Linux? Which distro is better to use? And won't this get me banned? I'm a newbie just switching to Linux from Windows. And just by the way, are games on Linux easier for a computer or do they stay the same?

vkBasalt was supposed to be kind of a shader thing like ReShade is for Windows. There is ReShade for linux in form of a script (reshade-steam-proton), but both projects haven't been updated in 2 years.

I still use reshade-steam-proton, and it still works, but i wonder what happened with vkBasalt.

Cause i never got it to work (years ago when ti was active), and now it seems abandoned. Is it merged into something maybe?

Anyone know anything about it?
