Anything that can display a static image on top of a game (Proton/Wine)? Like mangohud
I have a PNG with transparency that I want to display inside the MMORPG I play, in an specific X Y position.
It doesn't need to get updated just autostart with the game.
It would be nice if there was a key to toggle it ingame too.
Thanks

Nobara vs Bazzite
Which should I chose? I want the best performance for gaming while also having good stability and being able to install apps or do settings without needing to write 1000 commands and troubleshooting like in kubuntu where obs doesn't even detect my GPU as an encoder. If there's one even better for my needs please tell me. I do editing, screen recording, gaming, coding and everyday stuff like listening to music, watching YouTube etc

DAYZ on Zorin 18 sometimes runs, mostly does not.
I installed Zorin 18 about two weeks ago, updated system it and all is working good. Installed Steam, then DAYZ. It installed the game plus all the runtimes (1.0, 2.0, 3.0) Proton BattlEye runtime, and Proton Experimental. I exited Steam and restarted and connected to official servers, and a LAN server and it ran and played great. I didn't want to download any mods just yet so I just stayed on official servers. Connected again the next day and was able to play fine.
Didn't play for a few days and when I tried to join, everything seemed normal until after the 1:15 or 15 second countdown, then it would pause and give one of two errors:
Warning (0x00040031) You were kicked off the game Login timed out (AuthPlayerLoginState)
Warning (0x000400f0) You were kicked off the game BattlEye (Client not responding)
I then verified the files and everything reported as fine. Restarted steam and same errors, usually Login timed out but a few BattlEye errors.
Renamed the Battleye folder and re-verified, it said some files were missing and would be re-downloaded so I exited Steam, restarted and it reinstalled all of the files again.
I got the same errors so I kind of gave up then. I tried again 2 or 3 days later and was able to connect and play again. After a day or so the errors came back and won't stop now.
This is connecting to any server, low ping or even LAN. Running DAYZ on Win11 has no issues whatsoever connecting or playing on all the same servers. (LAN servers running on Win11 and another on Linux.)
Xeon with an RTX 3050, 16 Gig RAM, 500 Gig SSD.
Any thoughts as to what i should try next?

Anyone else having problems on Arma reforger?
Not only is the performance awful with constant stuttering, lower fps than I should be getting (50-70 frames) and fps dips (as low as 9-30) (doesn't just seem to be a lack of Linux compatiblity) the grass flickers like friggin crazy, I've tried limiting the FPS and even that didn't help much, are there any launch commands or recommend proton versions that can help me out here?
I'm using CachyOS, I've used both bore-lto and stock. I have also ran the gaming using Proton experimental, proton-cachyos (native) and proton-cachyos (steam-linux runtime) to run the game. I am running this game on a RTX 4080-S, a Ryzen 9 5900x 12-core, and 32GB of ram. I've tried this game on both Btrfs formatted drives and Ext4 formatted drives. I have also turned hardware anti-aliasing off and environmental qaulity to low.

Anyone know why it's taking Steam forever to launch games?
I'm running Steam on GNOME on Arch LInux with a GT 1030 (but on a new/fast computer) and it seems to be taking a full minute or so for games to actually launch every time. This is anything from BioShock, DeadSpace to Doom 1. Nothing is showing up in the Steam logs, journalctl or anything else, so I really have no idea what's happening. I tried a bunch of stuff like changing which Proton version games use, disabling overlay and several other common recommendations but nothing changes. Is this just an Nvidia driver issue because my card is ancient? I'm using the official driver, LTS version. It was the same on non-LTS too. I can't think of what else it would be other than some kind of network issue. Launching retrodoom, on the other hand is done in a fraction of a second. It's a huge difference.

Best gpu for me?
I want to switch to Linux (mint cinnamon) and I use an Nvidia RTX 5060, the probllem is i heard downloading drivers and other stuff from Nvidia is kinda complicated on Linux and people normally use AMD.
I wanted to know what is the best AMD gpu close to mine so I can use Linux (I will use Linux mainly for gaming).

Clair Obscur Expedition 33: Review on Linux and Steam Deck
Does EasyAntiCheat only run in its own container if run through Proton?
Hi all,
I've recently gotten into playing VRChat again, as my gf plays it and I wanted a space for us to hang out. I hadn't played it since before I completely swapped to Linux, so I didn't know what to expect, but surprisingly, it ran quite well through Proton Experimental! It froze for like half a second every now and then on busier maps, but otherwise, it ran great.
I do know about this game's infamous anticheat, and I no doubt have experienced its...quriks on Windows. However, since I'm running the game through a compatibility layer, is EAC not even an issue (i.e. only running on startup of VRChat and not in perpetuity)? It doesn't show up when I search for it in System Monitor, so this makes me lean towards yes (which would be amazing), but simply wanted confirmation on this from others who have tried it.
Thanks in advance!

iI can't use MangoHUD in Faugus Launcher
I recently performed a clean install of Nobara 43 and for some reason I can't use MangoHUD in Faugus Launcher. I thought it was a MangoHUD problem, but it works correctly in Steam and Lutris. Should I reinstall MangoHUD?
In the launcher, I can't select the MangoHUD option, and if I add it as an argument, the game won't open.

Please help me
So I asked how to Hogwarts legacy lagging more on Linux than on windows and you told me to uninstall the amdgpu driver and just use mesa. I uninstalled amdgpu, my system broke and I needed to enter through recovery mode to reinstall amdgpusince at first many apps weren't working and after a rebbot nothing happened when I selected kubuntu on grub. Should I switch os and get bazzite or something else?

The state of modding games in Linux (Small rant)
There has been one topic, that was on my mind since I went to Linux 3 months ago. I tried different distros and don't want to look back to windows, ever again. But there is one thing that I wish would be better.
Modding Games. I just fall in love of the idea of revisiting old games with a new perspective, namely: A mod compelation I've got from either wabbajack but mostly Nexus Mods.
I do know LIME & MO2 exist, but I am unable to make Vortex work and the native version is still in it's first baby steps and will take months if not years to get to the point. Also both don't support afaik not the wonder that is a mod compelation, a combination of mods that just work well together. If anybody know a way to make vortex work in Linux (Yesterday I learned of NaK, but it only supports a view games and no compelations).
PLEASE enlighten me
