It seems to be the wrong font, and I have no idea where to start searching for the correct font. I'm honestly happy I got this version of the game running at all, but since the text reaches the edge of the screen because of the wrong font, it can make the game unplayable at points. I did manage to get an older fan made linux running just fine (though the controller support was bugged, so i had to use steams instead).

If you’ve already managed to get Assassin’s Creed Odyssey running on Linux (especially Arch + NVIDIA), can you share your exact working setup?

Which Wine/Proton version are you using? Any specific tweaks or launch settings required?

Mine launches but nothing shows up. Looking for a confirmed working configuration.

System:

• Arch Linux (Omarchy-based)
• NVIDIA RTX 3050 Mobile (Driver 580.126.09)
• Hybrid GPU (Intel + NVIDIA PRIME)
• Vulkan working (nvidia-smi and vulkaninfo detect RTX correctly)

Today in the world of being an Indie Dev, I'm working on a new tileset.

Can you guess which game made by Nintendo inspired my skeleton mob?

Hi everybody!

I have recently switched to linux mint (xfce) on my laptop and I wanted to play some games with my long distance gf, which used a mac pc.

I have tried parsec to run some local games together but the compatibility is terrible, so I have ditched the idea.

I have heard some good things about proton+steam, but I also heard that it doesn't really work for online games, so I feel kinda stuck.

We do not really even need really fancy games, like any platform or puzzle game would probably work, so I am open to any suggestion.

Thanks everybody in advance for the help, and I apologize if it seems like a dumb question.

Hello, i would like recommendations for gaming distros that doesn't have too much bloatware. And has a good balance between developing work and daily use. I was using arch but I'm tired of fixing the system all weekend after a pacman -Syu.

Any recommendations are appreciated!

Not long ago, making a video game required serious technical expertise. Now we’re seeing tools designed specifically for accessibility platforms where you just describe your idea and AI handles the heavy lifting. OneTap build is one example positioning itself around that simplicity: no coding, no engine setup, just prompt → playable world.

If this trend continues, the definition of “game creator” might expand dramatically.

But I’m curious does easier creation lead to more innovation…

or just more noise?

Would love to hear how others see this evolving.

So, supposedly steamvr now works natively with Linux thanks to the steamvr beta, at least in theory it does, because I tried every possible workaround and it doesn't work. Some research has suggested me to use the freeworld drivers, whatever that means. So I try to install them with rpm fusion, which I think was already enabled, but I run the commands again just to be sure, and when I need to actually install the drivers with an ostree command, it tells me that the system wasn't booted through libostree, so they are not supported.

Does anyone have some sort of definitive fix for this? Using Fedora 43 KDE

Few months ago, I posted this. Please checked it out for more details, I haven't figure out the problem from that, I even tried using auto-cpufreq as someone suggested on that post but it seem to do ... nothing? I gave up and just leave the gaming scene. However, recently I really want to play a game on Steam that I give it a try again. But this keep happen.

I realize that my laptop was overheated during the gaming process and that make no sense, eventho my laptop is not gaming laptop, not power or anything (ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9) but the game I'm playing is relatively light (Balatro, Overcooked! 2, etc). These kind of game I should be able to play just fine, cuz I was on Windows and these game never lag (or rarely) and never be the main cause for my laptop overheated.

I need some suggestion what should I tried, or even switch to CachyOS ? Is it worth it?

My *new/current* setup:

• Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9 - i5-1145G7 - 32Gb RAM
• Arch Linux (NiriWM)
• Steam installed via Arch's repo
• Proton-GE (tried Wine expr, Wine 9.0, etc. Have the same problem)

Linux is perfect for gaming !!

Below is a complete list of settings and things I did for it to work on Mint. I feel like this might also apply to other OS as it is mostly hardware/game configuration.

I had a hard time setting it up (because no idea what I was doing), but after a few hours of digging in forums/Reddit posts I achieved a very qualitative gaming experience, by far superior to Windows 11 with the exact same hardware (it legit feels like a 400€ upgrade).

I am new to Linux, have basic understanding of terminal, hardware/software interaction, and I do not try to optimize everything. I was just trying to achieve “good-enough” performance.

This only concerns Nvidia GPUs, but it may be worth trying equivalement settings with AMD/Intel drivers and settings. I cannot tell which parameters had an impact or not as I did not test them one by one.

Hope this helps !

Configuration (hardware / OS)

• Hardware: i9-9900K / RTX2070 / 32GB DDR4 RAM / Z390 mobo / 1TO NVMe SSD / VG27AQ Gsync monitor
• Secure boot disabled in UEFI
• Latest Mint (22.3) with everything up to date (6.17 kernel, no idea how they work)
• Compositor disabled for full screen apps (Mint system settings > General)
• Checked if CPU was in powersave or performance mode:
  • cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu*/cpufreq/scaling_governor (returns the current performance mode, for me it was all powersave)
  • I ran sudo apt install cpufrequtils && sudo cpufreq-set -r -g performance to set to performance mode
• Checked that GPU is recognized with proper driver by running (in a terminal):
  • nvidia-smi (Should display a lot of info on your GPU)
  • glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer" (Should display Nvidia, and not Intel or mesa)

Nvidia and Gsync settings

• Latest Nvidia driver (590 at the time of writing)
• In Nvidia settings, Powermizer set to maximum performance
• Gsync enabled on my monitor
• Gsync enabled in Nvidia settings app in Mint

Steam installation

• I ran dpkg --add-architecture i386; apt update as root before installing Steam a a as per software manager instructions (no idea if actually necessary)
• Installed Steam as a system package (not flatpak)
• Proton Experimental (no GE needed so far)
• Shader pre-caching in Steam ENABLED (Settings > Downloads > Shaders pre-caching)
• Enabled performance monitor to monitor performance (Settings > In Game > performance monitor > full details)

Game settings

• DirectX 11 (for games that ask you to choose, DX12 is awfully laggy)
• Vsync disabled in game
• Game in full screen mode (no borderless)

Result

Games run butter smooth at 2560×1440 resolution on a 6 years old machine, no launching issues, no crashes, normal CPU/GPU temperatures (60/80°C, I have poor cooling in the machine at the moment).

> > Every game runs better than on Windows 11 (with exact same hardware)

A few games for reference:

• Elden ring Nightreign - 60FPS average (55-65) , medium graphics, no upscaling or tweaks, runs smooth
• DRG - 120 average (90 - 140), all on ultra, no upscaling/tweaks
• RoR2 - 100 average (75 - 140), all on ultra
• Expedition 33 - 55 average (capped at 60), medium quality with performance DLSS
• Ghostrunner - 100 average, ultra quality, no upscaling (sound issues tho)

All OOB, Proton experimental, no startup commands

Other considerations

• I started from a fresh install (I had a lot of graphic issues after cloning OS from another SSD)
• Wayland seems to cause issues
• Stable FPS doesn’t necessary mean it’s going to be fluid, I had unbearable stutters at constant 120+fps, and smooth game at varying framerates (90 - 120 FPS)
• Might seem trivial, but check in monitor settings that you are at the maximum framerate for your screen (setting 60Hz on my 144Hz monitor is awfully laggy)
• I have almost no customization plugins installed (heavy Mint interface customization seems to have an impact on performance)
• Games sometimes start in 4K, no idea why
• Also tried Cachy OS (found it meh), Pop OS (absolutely nothing worked OOB, dunno why), Bazzite (wayy too minimalistic and console-like for me)
