Cheating in multiplayer games has always been a cat and mouse game with the anti-cheat devs. Even windows kernel-side anti-cheats may be hacked one day as well or already have been hacked unnoticingly.

I think sooner or later big multiplayer games may start to migrate over to a server-to-client game streaming model similar to what stadia intended to do. A big hurdle for this would be the latency. But this is actually the only way to fight cheaters way more effectively. Then only AI based cheating would remain a threat, which are very hard to detect anyway even for the most skilled anti-cheat devs. But at least cheats would boil down to this factor.

So if that happens, meaning more and more windows cheaters are flooding multiplayer games despite kernel side anti-cheat, then its game devs have no choice but to stream their games from their servers, where they have way more control over the hardware.

In my opinion, this would be one of the few scenarios to save Linux gaming as a platform for multiplayer games, as there would no longer be any excuse why these games could not be streamed to other platforms with a browser.

i was realy thinking the cheat was spoofing linux to run on windows but no.

it is really easy to cheat on linux.

this is bad for the support of linux gaming and anti cheat in general.

My controller(gamesir G7se) works perfectly for everything else. I tried reinstalling steam, but that did not fix it.

Hey guys, after coming from windows, I was missing Afterburner, so naturally I looked for some nvidia GPU fan curve utility. There are several, but no clear winner for simple use cases - some are abandoned, some are quite"hacky", some are way too heavy/feature rich for my use case. Besides, I don't even really want a curve - the fan speeding up and slowing down is personally more distracting, than stable low rpm which is good enough for GPU to stay in safe temperature range (in other words: let temperature fluctuate, rather than fan speed). After some poking, I found ideal solution for me, maybe someone will like it too:

In Steam, get to the Properties of your game, in General tab, there is Launch options textbox, which is usually empty (unless you are already using something like mangohud). Simply put this into it:

nvidia-settings -a GPUFanControlState=1 -a GPUTargetFanSpeed=40; %command%; nvidia-ettings -a GPUFanControlState=0

and you are all done. This will

1. Enable manual control of GPU fan speed

2. Set fan speed to 40%

3. Run your game

4. After the game exits, it will reset GPU fan control back to default (GPU controlled curve)

Change number 40 to desired GPU Fan speed percentage, that gives you acceptable noise and temperatures in this particular game. So you can use different numbers for different games.

Happy quiet gaming!

Hi fellow Linux gamers!

When do you choose to use Proton GE vs the Proton? Do you typically follow the recommendations on ProtonDB, or do you have a specific version that you prefer to use consistently?

when it comes to multiplayer games like OW2 or The Finals, is there any risk with using Proton GE instead of Valve's official Proton?

Today I decided that I was finally going to give Linux a try for gaming. I've been relucent too for a long time due to anti cheat/future game updates breaking Linux. On my ROG Ally Windows sleep mode just doesn't work properly, whenever I resume from hibernate, Steam Big Picture mode thinks I'm offline and it takes time for the device to regain WiFi. It also caused problems syncing save data on Steam, I would have to wait 15 seconds before powering down the device to make sure the save data was synced. Overall Windows just isn't designed for a handheld gaming device. I really hope Valve and other Distro Devs can work with game publishers and devs on a solution for the anti cheat problem. I would love to install Linux on my main PC, but I don't want too because I play Fornite somewhat often, and also other multiplayer games like Apex or The Finals. Currently there's no guarantee that even if your favorite multiplayer game supports Linux now, that it will in the future

So, people buy Nintendo, even though they are locked out of 95% of the gaming market.

People buy PlayStation and XBox, even though there's exclusives on both sides, and a large number of PC games that just are not available. Also, no Nintendo games.

People buy Windows, even though there's plenty of console titles that are not available, or are badly ported, or released years after launch.

So why do so many people seem to freak out when they hear that a small number of games don't run on Linux? Why do I so often see people say this a deal breaker for linux, but not for the other systems? (Or is this actually a very small minority? Am I stuck in an echo chamber?)

This is the error I keep getting when trying to launch the game. Does anyone have any idea how to fix it? The only thing I've really tried is getting the newest driver from the Nvidia website but the .run file opens in a text editor and won't install. I'm on Mint 22 Cinnamon and just want to play the game.

I've installed CK Platform Extended, and Creation Kit Multiple Masters Fix but I still have lingerining issues. It takes a really long time to load cells (5 minutes) when I've seen YouTubers load it in under a second, and I'm using an NVME SSD. The Render View is also very laggy and unresponsive. It's almost like my cursor is stuck being clicked down, so moving my mouse around even without clicking moves the camera around. Makes it pretty much impossible to use, which is a shame because I want to make patches.

So i played subnautica on the same graphics settings as windows (ultra) and it goes incredibly slow, like 2-10 fps, when they're were normally 60fps stables, here is a list what i tried:

- gamemode

- gamescope

- proton GE

- proton 9

- proton 8

- proton experimental

- update from 560 to 565 drivers

- almost everyone on protonDB has no problems whatsoever

this are my specs:

- NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650

- 16 GiB RAM

- Archlinux (6.11.6 kernel)

- KDE Plasma 6.2.2

- Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-9400F (6) @ 4.10 GHz

I'm having trouble configuring my mouse acceleration curve on Ubuntu Wayland. My mouse feels too "floaty" and I'd like to fine-tune the acceleration. I know libinput supports custom acceleration profiles (merge request !775), but I haven't been able to find any information on how to actually configure it under Wayland.

I've tried using xinput, but that seems to only work with X server. I've also looked at libinput debug-events, but that only shows events and doesn't offer any configuration options.

Does anyone know how to configure a custom mouse acceleration profile in libinput on Ubuntu Wayland? Any advice or pointers would be greatly appreciated!

See title, considering switching from cinnamon to xfce if it can help grab a few more fps

Also, is Mint basically as good as any other distro for gaming?

I'm trying to look for actual comparisons online but I can't find much

Hello,

I've been trying to deal with this issue for a few months but I'm pretty sure no one else online has something similar going on, I'm pretty lost so I've finally decided to ask for help.

Starting since the 555 Nvidia drivers and continuing on up through the 560 and the current 565 beta drivers, I haven't been able to launch any games or anything that uses 3d acceleration (namely Unity Studio) under Xwayland. Things work fine under X11, as do 3d apps with native Wayland support (at least Blender does), but Xwayland crashes *instantly* as soon as I try to launch a game using it. This also crashes any 2D Xwayland applications that were running at the time, like Discord.

Initially I thought this was the VRAM crash some people have been talking about since 555 was released, but from what I understand that crash takes minutes to happen - for me it's completely instant, with nothing but a black screen rendering for a few milliseconds.

Technical details - I'm on Arch, on KDE, all packages up to date as of 2024/11/03. My GPU is an RTX 3060, a LHR model from Palit if that makes a difference.

The only logs I'm smart enough to grab are from journalctl, and all I can get from this is that the crash is due to a segfault:

My nvidia kernel module options are currently:

nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=1 nvidia nvidia.NVreg_EnableGpuFirmware=1

As for troubleshooting, I've tried having GSP firmware both on and off, as well as switching to nvidia-open - no difference with any of this. I also tried using Hyprland instead of Plasma, but same issue - actually it makes the entire session crash. Rolling back to 550 works, of course, but that seems untenable, plus it's missing explicit sync so playing games kind of sucks anyways.

I'm feeling pretty hopeless here, any help would be appreciated.

I'm thinking about buying it when the discount returns, is there are any problems with the game login/sign in feature on steam deck/linux?

seeing how some friends had their game refunded because they can't get through the xbox pop-up login window (the sign-in doesn't register and the game loads you back to the start menu, so kind of a soft lock)

I also knew someone who had crashed their game after going through prologue and was never able to boot the game past the start menu screen

did anyone encounter these problems or something similar?
