Im on Mint 22, kernel 6.8.0-51, I'm launching the game with GE-Proton9-22 through steam, and I put WINEDLLOVERRIDES command to load the asi loader, but San Andreas still wont launch. I did the same thing with III and VC and they work perfectly fine. Im using the 1.0 retail release of the game. I set up all the mods and made 100% sure they worked in windows before I moved them over to mint. I did the same thing on my steam deck a year ago and I had no issues there. I tried different versions of proton too, but nothing worked.

DLL Overrides: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="bass,ddraw,vorbisFile=n,b" %command%

I only started using linux on my desktop a month ago so please Let me know if theres something obvious im overlooking.

I just bought a new graphics card (hasn't arrived yet), and as a consequence my CPU will now bottleneck my system (though I'm not sure by how much). I have a suspicion however (more wishful thinking, really) and would like the opinion of this subreddit:

The way I understand it, Proton works by translating the windows executable format(s) to ELF executable, and then providing the programs running under it with reverse engineered alternative implementations of the necessary windows APIs, the best example of such alternatives being DXVK (not sure how much of DXVK can be labeled as "reverse engineering" as opposed to "translation" though, would appreciate an explanation on that as well).

As such, my suspicion is that CPU performance would not suffer as big an overhead from proton as the GPU side (where by far most of Proton's work is being done), and might indeed enjoy a net performance gain when compared to windows, as that OS has all the issues we are all well aware of (worse scheduler, more CPU usage, more RAM usage, etc).

Regardless of whether GPU performance actually gets better or worse on Linux, as long as the CPU gets a bigger net performance gain, my theory would be correct and the bottleneck would be lower. If said theory is correct, I would also like to ask if anyone could tell me whether the aforementioned CPU performance gain over Windows would be minor or significant.

I write this post in hopes of either being corrected or having my suspicions confirmed/corroborated. Either way, I appreciate any response or elucidation on the topic, as well as on anything written here that might be incorrect. At the end of the day, I just love learning more about Linux, Wine and Proton. Thanks!

--hdr-itm-enabled enable SDR->HDR inverse tone mapping. only works for SDR input. --hdr-itm-sdr-nits set the luminance of SDR content in nits used as the input for the inverse tone mapping process. Default: 100 nits, Max: 1000 nits --hdr-itm-target-nits set the target luminace of the inverse tone mapping process. Default: 1000 nits, Max: 10000 nits

Is it some kind of HDR shader for SDR content?

So I have GTAV on epic games and whenever I install it using heroic game launcher's Epic Games store, it directly loads into story mode, no menu.

The game works perfectly fine but only loads story mode each and every time, even through the pause menu I am not able to access online mode bevause there is only online mode option but nothing else there when I navigate to that option.

Same happened when I used Epic Games Store using portproton.

Tried both proton and wine latest versions and yes I do have gta online purchased.

Last day I did a fresh install of fedora KDE spin and installed steam and noticed that the glitch that made a black box appear as the left sidebar pop up was not there anymore

Is this a kernel related fix? Or by Nvidia?

Can someone check? This is something I have seen since I switched and I'm super excited!!

Edit: the change from desktop steam and big picture is still broken tho

TL;DR: Delete steamapps/compatdata/[gameid]. (see the game's URL on steam)

Trying to get Tekken 8 to boot and being met with "DirectX 12 is not supported on your system" despite knowing the hardware and software support it, I tried a whole lot of things including upgrading from mint 21.2 to 21.3, nvidia driver versions 530, 535, and 565, and proton hotfix, experimental, and ge 7.X, 8.X, and 9.X with each combination of the previous. My last ditch while troubleshooting is to run steam in the terminal and scrutinize the output myself, where I noticed that proton was complaining about a corrupted prefix and being unable to update it, so I deleted it. I didn't find a single search engine result that said to try doing that for this specific error message, so hopefully putting this up helps someone.

Window offers 5 options I can try to continue but non of them do anything. I've seen past threads on this topic but this looks like a symptom that is present among many underlying issues. Logs attached below; I have skimmed through them but not much of it makes sense to me.

This all started after coming back from a vacation. After booting computer, asked to perform updates. I relented. Steam worked just fine before leaving a week ago and did updates right when it turned on. I doubt anything else would have done anything, computer was off while gone, but i don't have proof the updates did it.

Steam client version (build number or date): I don't know I can't open Steam
Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Ubuntu 24.04
Opted into Steam client beta?: [Yes/No] Possible in Beta but heavily doubt it
Have you checked for system updates?: [Yes/No] Yes.
GPU: AMD

I've tried each option the pop-up window provides with no change.

reboot
checking for updates
Switched from Wayland to Xorg then changed windows manager to KDE Plasma
complete uninstall, purge, delete ~/.steam (After pulling userdata and steamlibrary)

I have a post on the Linux Steam Github page with some more information (Including logs) but thought I'd cross post on here in case I get quicker results. Just bought a ton of games while away and can't touch any of them until I can get steam to run.

Any help greatly appreciated! Happy holidays everyone!

I think this feature is very welcome, but they seem to not care about polishing it. There are DX11 games that benefit from GPL and therefore shader caching is not a big deal. (I have found DX11 games have the biggest sized caches, curiously). There are some DX12 games that precompile shaders properly. So we should be able to select which games we want and when we want shaders to be updated for those games (daily, weekly, monthly basis). I have read people saying "just turn that option off", however, those games that suffer shader compilation stutter on Windows will suffer the same on Linux if shaders are not processed. It is insane that lots of gb get downloaded on a daily basis even for games that simply don't need it. The tool is great, but why do you think Valve has not polish it? Is it like this on Steam Deck? (I am using Bazzite).

I have recently gotten a Quest 3 and want it to run with an Arch Linux Hyprland setup.

In order to get ALVR to run, it needs SteamVR. That's where the fun starts, what I've already done is:

• Steam is installed by pacman with SteamVR installed
• Steam-play-none
• beta version
• installing additional packages like openxr, openvr, monado in case they bring some dependencies with them
• reinstallation of SteamVR twice

SteamVR just doesn't keep running. When clicking launch, it starts up but closes again after a short while. There is no windows that pop up, nothing except the steam standard startup.
Thank you for your help.

I've been trying to get Spyro Reignited to work on my System76 system. The game starts up fine. No issues with cutscenes. No graphical bugs. That being said the game quits out after a few minutes of playing.

Following this guide I've been able to play with WiFi turned off, but it's really inconvenient, and I'm wondering if it is the cause of another issue where I'm losing save data. There is another solution on that thread, but it requires editing the "hostfile" which I believe is a Windows exclusive thing.

Is there a way to modify the "hostfile" for a given game or does Proton/Wine use some other means for name recognition?
