Does anyone know how I can download games on Linux and use them with online.fix? I'm a user who switched from Windows to Linux. On Windows, I used Hydra to download games like The Forest, and I could play them just by running it. It's not the same on Linux. Could someone tell me step-by-step what I can do? I need things that actually work because I want to play The Forest with my Windows friends even though I'm on Linux, and I want to know where to download the game and what to do to get it running and working online.

hi guys, recently i made a similar post but I've spoked in portuguese so... long story, short story, how you've been dealing with the anticheat error? I don't want to make a dual boot only to play chivalry but god... if i cant make it works that will do unfortunately

Every guide i found was either way too complex or didnt work, so heres something at keeps it simple and GUI

1. Download mod https://www.moddb.com/mods/stalker-anomaly, extract it
2. Install Bottles and Flatseal flatpaks
3. Open flatseal, find bottles, scroll down to filesystem, and enable "All user files"
4. Open Bottles, click 3 dot menu in top right corner, go to preferences > Runners > Proton GE > Install newest version (hit save icon)
5. Go to bottles tab, click plus button in top left corner
6. Create Gaming bottle, name it stalker anomaly
7. In programs section, click add shortcuts, point it at your AnomalyLauncher.exe in mod folder
8. Scroll down to Options > Settings, change runner to latest proton GE version
9. (Optional but very convenient) Close steam, make sure it's not running in background. In bottles next to where you can start AnomalyLauncher, the 3 dot icon, add to steam, now open steam and it will be in your games library

If you want to additionally install Mod Organizer 2 follow these steps

1. Download Mod.Organizer-x.x.x.7z, it's a portable version of the manager https://github.com/ModOrganizer2/modorganizer/releases
2. Extract it where you want and add it as a non steam game, right click on properties, check 'Force the use of a specific steam play compatility tool' set to proton experimental (Bottles does not work for this as it will fail to detect steam)
3. Point Mod organizer at your AnomalyLauncher

Linux mint keeps breaking cutscenes in games. First it was spiderman 2 where it froze during the saving tombstone from his cell cutscene but the audio kept playing until suddenly the whole cutscene played in a few seconds before returning to normal. In Lego starwars the complete saga as shown above. The cutscene did the same thing. Froze part way though with audio continuing. But it froze completely rather than fast forwarding the cutscene and resuming the game. I have the recommended nvdia drivers for my 3060 and am running proton experimental rn (it auto installed and i just havent changed it yet)

What should I do when support ends in 2028? What will happen to older graphics cards running Linux? And even worse, what will happen to computers when Windows 11 support ends and they no longer meet the requirements to upgrade to Windows 12? For example, I use a very old computer from 2050 with a GTX 10xx series graphics card. I know there's no explanation, but are there any alternatives?

Just started playing witcher 3 for the first time and I have the decky framegen patch command setup in the launch options.

With that I can select dlss as anti aliasing and dlss frame generation. When I do select dlss frame generation however the image constantly bounces and it's unplayable. Prior to using the decky framegen command I had the proton fsr4 upgrade command (like I had for ghost of tsushima) but in the game I was still only seeing fsr2 and no frame generation option.

Any advice?

I am on bazzite running on a 9070xt

I didn't see these messages before that I remember.

Now I am getting flooded with these messages:

kernel: x86/split lock detection: #DB: CHTTPClientThre/38096 took a bus_lock trap at address: 0x5689c584

About 8 or so every 30-60 seconds.

I am on Arch Linux, running Steam through multilib. I tried turning on beta build, but it is no different.

I have tried running Zenless Zone Zero on Steam, Twintail Launcher & Heroic Launcher with Proton Experimental / GE-Proton Latest and no matter what, the game keeps freezing after just a few minutes.
I genuinely don't know what's causing this issue.

I'm having lots of fun exploring this, I'm not concerned just wanting to learn more.

How are all these "community" runtimes and binaries like Wine and Proton-GE vetted to be from legit sources?

Because Linux supports FSR 4 on RDNA 2 without using a modified driver.

I have loq 4050 r5 is it a good idea to install gaming distro on it l like Linux but i won't lose performance and how to make performance equal to windows and how is the battery life on laptop and is there any driver issues?

I'm currently with Windows 10 IoT LTSC for gaming, because my last experience on Linux wasn't good, but maybe I just set up it wrong or chose a bad distro for gaming, also, it was a few time ago, it probably improved since the last time.

I just don't want to loose performance, as far as I know, Nvidia isn't as good as AMD on Linux. And I can't afford new hardware.

These are my specs: - GPU: GTX 1650 Mobile (for laptops) - CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800H with Radeon Graphics, 3201 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 16 Logical Processor(s) - RAM: 16GB - Storage: SSD M2

My question is: would I get at least the same performance as W10 IoT LTSC on Linux? Considering I'm using a very light version of Windows plus debloating script to remove any extra crap.

I couldn't find any good comparative video Windows vs Linux on YouTube, most of them show Linux doing generally better but most cases only for AMD. A few other videos I saw Nvidia showed even 10-20% less performance on Linux.

I installed ES-DE from their official page, and the AppImage doesn't seem to work, even with RetroArch installed the file doesn't anything at all. Do you have any suggestion or do you know any fix for this issue?

Howdy, I'm trying to get HDR working on my Fedora install. The game I'm testing with is Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. My setup of course works in Windows but been having trouble in Fedora. HDR is enabled as far as KDE is concerned, I have a vk-hdr-layer from a Copr repo, Nvidia driver 580.119.02 on a 5090 FE and using the following launch options with the game in Steam:

I've been trying multiple versions of Proton-GE but they've all be consistent in their behavior which is when the game starts or is in focus, performance drops like a rock to like 2 FPS, when something else is focused, like my web browser, then it goes to where I expect performance to be and I can see in idtech's performance metrics that HDR is reporting as active.

Any thoughts?

Hello everyone

I'm on bazzite and I'm running into this issue that for some reason my controller started lagging both wirelessly and wired

It's a pretty much brand new PS4 controller and it had been working fine the whole time I was using linux and now suddenly it started lagging both when it's wired and wirelessly connected.

I have no idea why as I changed nothing it just happened out of nowhere

The only idea I have is that there might have been some background update that messed things up?

I tested the controller on windows and it worked fine just like it worked before , no issues at all so I'm at a loss

Any help is appreciated

Thanks
