Dcs flashing textures

21 Jun 2024 - 4:09pm

In dcs the menu works fine but as soon as u get into a plane It has textur flashing to the level it's unplayable this randomly started happening one day the only thing I can think of is Mesa drivers bug

Eny fix when I use the launch options in steam that is suppose to fix this it just masked the game crash on start

I'm on opensuse and people have been talking about a bad Mesa driver Mesa 24.1 coude this he the reason And what's the fix seems like this is mostly an AMD problem

How do I use the XIVLauncher without breaking Steam?

21 Jun 2024 - 3:53pm

When I boot the XIVLauncher, steam thinks I am booting the FInal Fantasy XIV free trial and sets that as my status, and it gets stuck there until I force close steam with the KILL command. Even when I close the XIV launcher, Steam can't stop showing that I am in the free trial, so I cannot boot another game afterwards because Steam can't close the process telling it that I am in FFXIV.

Is there anyway to stop this from happening?

Heroic Games Launcher - How to Add to Sunshine/Moonlight?

21 Jun 2024 - 2:15pm

Does anyone know how to add the Heroic Games Launcher to Moonlight/Sunshine on Linux? I'm not an advanced user, but I haven't come across any instructions that cover this step-by-step.

Is there a better way to play games from the Epic Store than the above configuration?

Tarisland came out today, no Lutris installer yet

21 Jun 2024 - 12:56pm

Official homepage: https://tarisglobal.com/en/home.html

Lutris page (no installer as of the time writing this): https://lutris.net/games/tarisland/

Trying to just add it to Lutris w/o script: Installer starts up fine, but hangs at "Initializing 0%" with a download speed of "0MB/s" and rest time "--:--:--". :/

This is with lutris-GE-Proton8-26-x86_64 (which is the latest available lutris-GE-Proton version, from feb 2024, file wine-lutris-GE-Proton8-26-x86_64.tar.xz). I also tried wine-9.8-staging, same result. 'top' shows no CPU usage by the game or any related processes.

"Disable compositing for fullscreen windows" not working (Mint Cinnamon)

21 Jun 2024 - 12:18pm

First time I installed Linux mint some weeks ago I managed to make it work, but some things happened here and there and I had to reinstall the OS and now the setting I cited on the title of the post seems to have no effect.

If I try to play a game it feels like I'm limited to 30fps on screen even though my game IS running WAY above that.

I had that problem on my first install but I quickly fixed it. I'm not being so lucky as of now though... any help?

Fallout New Vegas (Steam, PCR version) fails to launch after installing Mod Organizer 2

21 Jun 2024 - 11:27am

Hey, guys, need your help. I’m not a native speaker, but will try to be as informative as I can.

The problem is, when following this guide on how to install MO on Linux, starting up fails completely. After success installation and running preferred game no MO2 splash screen appears, nothing at all.

Game doesn’t work out-of-the-box on my machine, requests installation media to continue setup, but this solves by adding some strings to the games’ registry (this video, see Step №2 in the description).

I’ve also encountered the „audio“ problem, this tutorial in the post fixes it. With that, vanilla game starts as it supposed to.

Running steam from terminal after executing MO2-installer script gives these details: ``` $ steam

If I understand all that correctly, the only real problem is missing Windows libraries, ye? In that case, is it possible to automatically search for all of them and install, for example, using protontricks?

Ubisoft Connect Lag on Lutris

21 Jun 2024 - 10:56am

Hello, recently converted to Linux as of two days ago due to windows being windows. I've been redownloading all my games had a few issues but getting over them gradually. One issue I am having though is I have downloaded ubisoft Connect via Lutris but when I run it I get the loading fine but as soon as the login screen appears it lags my whole pc and refuses to load. I have got battle net running fine through Lutris just ubisoft Connect being weird. I have tried changing it to use wine-ge, proton-experimental and proton-9-ge but to no luck.

I am using bazzite

Can I mod games on Linux?

21 Jun 2024 - 9:36am

Mainly the games I wanna mod are red dead redemption 2 and Cyberpunk 2077, also I know there’s probably ways to mod games on Linux just wanna know if it’s complicated or not, the way I mod games on windows is by dropping files into the games root folder and not using mod managers, do I need to use mod managers on Linux or can I just do the same thing as I do on windows

Will any USB dongle work for connecting my xbox controller via bluetooth?

21 Jun 2024 - 9:16am

My desktop doesn't have bluetooth capabilities and was wondering if i could buy any usb dongle to wirelessly connect my xbox controllers via bluetooth or if only certain ones will work on a Linux OS.

I'm currently using Nobara, if that helps.

Thank you!

Why doesn't Wine/Proton automatically install missing files?

21 Jun 2024 - 8:56am

Recently I was using Wine to install a windows-based drawing software, it was a huge pain in the buttocks. You try to install the software (through Terminal) and it throws up a list of errors. Each error corresponds to a missing file. You search and find the missing file is in some Windows 97 winter service pack update, you then have to download the package just to gain access to the single file. Run the install again. More errors. Repeat process.

So, it got me thinking "Why Wine/Proton doesn't automatically perform this task?"

I am probably misunderstanding something, but it seems to me that any Windows software/game should work on Linux (using wine/proton) as long as you have the specific Windows file that the install is looking for?

Couldn't there be some kind of archive of all windows system files which can be accessed by Wine/Proton during the game/program installation process where it can automatically download & install necessary files and continue the game/program installation?

Does Refind make the OS as a whole perform diffently than if you chose systemd as boot manager?

21 Jun 2024 - 7:58am

Can anyone explain to me if there is difference in performance based on Boot manager?

Cachyos recommends refind when dual booting but systemd for seperate drives iirc.

Can i use systemd for a dual boot when both OS on same drive? I spam f11 to change between options as it is anyway if mo haem is caused.

Elden Ring won't launch?

21 Jun 2024 - 6:41am

Hi, sorry if the subreddit is filling up with elden ring troubleshooting, but I've exhausted all the search results on this. I'm using the ER proton patcher from github for the framerate cap, but this issue also exists if I just try to launch the game without it. It shows as running but never opens anything. I'm using proton experimental, and have tried the most recent stable version as well. The log it gives me shows that it gets hung up on wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

specifically, it shows this:

wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

wine: using kernel write watches, use_kernel_writewatch 1.

and then nothing else. I have seen nobody else talking about this, I don't get many search results with that phrase at all, I don't know what it's doing, please help me

RDR2 on T14

21 Jun 2024 - 6:11am

I just recently switched to Linux and new to the world of Debian (Linux mint) and when I swapped over I got a Think pad 14 gen 3 with an AMD 7 with integrated graphics, while I see online tons of people saying RDR2 is compatible, the cpu hits a max of 100% and the game barely runs (when I say barely it’s around a frame a minute) is there anyway to optimize my IGPU so it can run RDR2
