Noticeable audio delay on rocket league

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2025 - 6:56pm

I'm on the latest openSUSE Tumbleweed running rocket league through steam Proton 9.0-4 and noticing a big audio delay (about 300ms-400ms if i had to guess).

Other games work like a dream but i can't figure out why rocket league in specific has this audio delay problem.

I'm on PulseAudio PipeWire 1.4.2 audio driver.

I tried to search on google and didn't find anything on my specific situation. Everyone online recommends sticking to PulseAudio so i haven't tried switching audio drivers.

Any ideas for what i should try would be appreciated, thanks!

Swap partition and games running under proton

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2025 - 6:39pm

Hello, I am trying to run Skyrim with a Wabbajack modlist. Most of those would require a 40GB pagefile under Windows.
Will Skyrim (and other games for that matter) use my swap partition like they would a pagefile? If not, what would be the correct way to configure them so they do use the partition or at least a swapfile?

Thank you in advance.

When I reboot from Bazzite video won't show up until the login screen. However when i shutdown and power on I get video from the BIOS onward. I dual boot with windows 11 and when I reboot from Windows I also get video from the BIOS onward. I run a LG C2 as a monitor connected HDMI. My video card is a 3080.

EA app needs to restart loop

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2025 - 5:02pm

Trying to play EA games but it's a mess. EA app on a feels like weekly basis has some update that it needs a restart but it never succeeds cause it shuts itself down.

I have the games and launcher both on Lutris but nothing ever works.

My only workaround has been to uninstall everything, then download the latest EA Play installer but this isn't sustainable, because if they have a typo in their launcher that then hotfix it the next day, the whole process restarts.

Anyone know a fix? To get the EA launcher to work and update itself successfully? On Bazzite and Lutris.

Fedora 42 KDE Proton Stutter Issue

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2025 - 4:54pm

Been having a strange issue when trying to play any game using proton and even some native games. Tried multiple proton versions, around 30 minutes into playing a game it will begin to stutter badly when i move my mouse or try to move in game. Once i stop moving mouse the game returns to normal. Not sure what causes this but wanted to know if anybody else has had the same issues. Restarting the game stops the issue until the time period has passed and it starts again.

I have an issue with my laptop, that involves frequent stuttering in multiple games. I tried reinstalling drivers, changing from OS (which I've had planned to do anyway), set affinities and updating BIOS. Nothing seemed to work. Tried turning v-sync off/on and locking framerates too.

Specs:

MSI Katana GF66:

CPU: Intel I5 11400f

GPU: RTX 3060 (Mobile)

16GB RAM

512GB SSD

PS5 controller stopped working on Halo MCC

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2025 - 3:26pm

It was working just fine two days ago. Yesterday there was an update and after that, the game stopped recognizing my controller. It does however still let me move the cursor with the touchpad, but that's about it.

I'm on Kubuntu LTS and I'm using the flatpak version of Steam. I also checked to see if the controller still works in other games, and it does. However, I don't see anyone else reporting this issue so I assume it might be Linux only.

Preservation is important for video games, but that often focuses on games that have been released. Here's a nice win for some developers though, as Captain Blood has managed to release on Steam after being cancelled in 2010.

Help with NVIDIA Prime Laptop (Gigabyte KF5) and weird issues on games and XFCE(X11)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2025 - 1:31pm

Hello, so I'm having some issues with my laptop, I'll try to explain everything:

The laptop has an i5 13500H paired with a 4060 8Gb (The "low" wattage one)

The problem is the following, I've tried different DEs, Distros and WM.

With XFCE and X11 the DE randomly crashes and I have to manually kill the process and restart it. This happens no matter what I do and it seems to be random, with KDE and Wayland this doesn't happen.

On games I have the following issues:

When using external monitors I get a 10%-20% performance loss, not because of the performance loss of having extra monitors, it has to be something else, because if the game is getting redered on said monitors it gets the performance loss, if the game is running on the laptop screen while attached to the external monitors the FPS go up.

I know NVIDIA has issues on Linux and NVIDIA Prime laptops have even more issues, but I'd like to know if someone has the same issues I'm having or if it's a known issue at all.

Edit: Forgot to mention I'm using Debian 13 and I'm using the latest nvidia drivers from their website(I've also tried the ones on the debian repos and I have the same issues)
