hytale crashes when I try to open world folder to add mods it crashes the game completely (on steam deck in desktop mode)

To anyone considering moving to Linux but worried about game support and having an Nvidia GPU fear not. I too had these worrys a short time ago. Even did a bit of distro hopping. And most supported my 50 series GPU right outa the box and if the distro didn't it took less than 5 minutes to install the correct drivers. I've been off and on for Linux for a few years now. But never on my main gaming PC. Till now. Also you don't have to have a "gaming distro" to play games any distro will most likely work right out of the box. I'm a lifer now. And thanks to all those who helped and will probably help me in the future.

Decided to make this a thread after some days of troubleshooting and googling around. I just can't get acceptable quality on Discord with screensharing. I tried using Vesktop and Equibop which were common suggestions from others, but while they allow me to finally stream with sound, the stream quality careens into a stuttery mess after a few seconds. If I choose "Prefer Smoothness", the quality is garbage (naturally) but the stream still becomes messy and stuttery after a while. When I choose "Prefer Quality", the stream looks like I want it to look - except after 10 seconds it becomes stuttery and unwatchable as well. Sometimes, the stream will also say "Stream Failed to Start: Error" and it will only work again when I disable Hardware Acceleration.

Strangely enough, the regular flatpak discord client is the only one that can keep the quality afloat, but it also stutters after streaming for a few seconds and the sound (depending on the game there's no sound but some games do have sound) begins to lag with the stream as well (on vesktop client it doesn't, the sound stays perfect but the image will still be bad). For now I have resorted to hosting with Sunshine and my friends watch my game over Moonlight, which works perfectly, but I can't force everyone to get Moonlight + LogMeInHamachi every time they want to watch me stream, and I don't want to push 2 entirely unrelated programs/tools on to people all the damn time. Also, I don't have this issue on Windows at all (but I'd really prefer not to use Windows anymore). I have RTX 3060 and Intel i9-11900 processor with 32 GB RAM.

My guess is that Discord on Linux (no matter the client) still uses CPU encoding of sorts instead of GPU encoding. Unfortunately i have no idea how to go on about fixing this anymore. Does anyone have any better idea? I'd be willing to distro hop as well if Bazzite is the issue but I somehow doubt it

Something that could help is being able to change the streaming codec somehow like I can with Sunshine, but I wouldn't know how to, or if that's even possible.

Is it only for me or does this affects generally everyone that has ever tried to screen share in Discord in linux and noticed that switching between 720p and 480p does not have a single difference? Why the hell 720p still looks like 480p? It looks awful for full screen and i cant see to find a solution for this, and im tired of google just regurgitating any AI response with a bunch of fucking nonsense in it, see the following video:

hello I recently switched to linux a few months ago so I really dont know that much when it cocmes to gaming Im playing this game Heartopia and my problem was the google login even tho in the browser it said successfully login in game its still in the login menu anyone knows how to fix this

Hi, I switched from Windows 11 to Linux (Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS) yesterday. I've managed to get Sims 4 to run smoothly (using Steam/ProtonDB).

But there's one small-ish thing I haven't found a solution for: The hotkeys seem to be switched/altered compared to Windows. For example, I'm able to move objects up or down using 8 and 9 (instead of [ or ] keys under Windows).

But how to size objects down? I can only size them up using the + key. Does anyone know the hotkey for sizing them down?

As far as I know, there's no option to view or alter the hotkeys.

for starters I'm on linux mint 22 x86_64 and i have steam from official deb, the game and proton is on my main drive on ext4 and i have tried to reinstall steam, the game files are fine i think cause flatpak version of steam does launch it fine but its flatpak and if possible i'm trying to avoid it as much as possible as it doesn't play nice with my stuff, i can't find logs for isaac and i have no idea why it won't launch atp.

if there's some logs or sum that might help then just ask, i'm lowkey down bad to fix it rn

I tried bunch of distros and decided to install Bazzite with GNOME. So happy so far. I didn't even know that Linux is a kernel about a week ago.

Deleted the Windows 11, didn't bother with dual-booting as my games already running on Linux.

Working well on a Full-AMD gaming laptop. ASUS TUF A16 Advantage Edition with Ryzen 7 7435HS and a Radeon RX 7600S 8GB GDDR6.

Trying to figure out how to install asusctl.

Especially the most recent one who literally said in the title the game doesn't have a linux release yet. "Coming soon" ™️

Like seriously WTF? How shameless can you be?

I feel like all I ever see from this sub are devs abusing this sub for promotion of their games.

Can't something be done about that?

As the title says I’m running a modpack same launcher same mods just on another device and its running horribly on my old integrated graphics laptop I would get 40 fps very stable but now Its extremely choppy occasionally hitting 60 I have tried updating everything

Mod pack: Create’a Colony

Launcher: Atlaunchrr

Gpu: R5 5600

CPU: Rtx 3070

Ram:16 gb

Every time I try to open GTA 5 Enhanced, I get this Rockstar launcher update error. If I click OK, the game just doesn't open and gets stuck on an infinite loading screen. Does anyone know how to solve this? (Note: This happened out of nowhere. One day I was playing normally, closed the game to open another, then tried to open GTA again and this message started appearing, without me having done anything, downloaded anything, restarted or turned it off.)

My system description: Kernel: Linux 6.18.5-zen1-1-zen OS: Arch Linux (with Wayland) GPU: RTX 4060 (I've already updated the drivers to the latest version)

got new 5060 laptop on saturday and the amount of problems i had with windows from gpu not utilizing all wattage from dropping to 5 fps for no reason and 25h2 breaking drivers.Was kinda scared the 5060 drivers would be bad but its been pretty great pop os and i lost maybe 5-10 fps but i gain so much more stability.

Hello I want to install linux on my HP Victus 15-fa1093dx with specs :

Intel Core I5-13420H

Nvidia RTX 3050 6gb

8 gb Ram

512 gb nvme

But I always face a problem with sleep/wake it takes longer time than windows and I tried many ways but nothing solved the problem the only way that helped me is using only integrated gpu but I want to use it on hybrid mode like on windows to be able to do my development work and gaming so can I achieve this or not ? :(

note:

I tried many distros like fedora, blufin and popos-nvidia

I installed Ubisoft through Faugus Launcher and after installing and running Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (having addes the .exe to Faugus) I get an error message saying: Unable to detect Ubisoft Connect installation. Please make sure Ubisoft Connect is installed. Could y'all please help me solve this issue?

I'm trying to run Divinity:Original Sin Enhanced Edition (native) through lutris but for some reason v-sync seems to be enabled, even though I disabled it in the in-game settings. I also made sure mangohud present mode is "unset" through goveraly. So I'm confused as to why the v-sync still persist. Any help would be appreciated.

I've been trying to get the best possible frame pacing with no tearing. I play on a 120hz oled with VRR.

I'm really confused about the way Mangohud and the allow tearing setting under Display options interacts.

Allow tearing is enabled by default in a new install on Cachyos. Meaning that vsync must be enabled another way ie in the games own options otherwise tearing will be present. And with vrr (adaptive set to automatic in display settings). Frame should be capped to 116. I do this using dxvk frame rate in steam launch options.

This works OK but I read a lot of difference of opinion about the best combo of vsync settings etc for latency and smooth frame pacing.

I play non competitive stuff on a big TV so frame pacing is most important to me.

I've seen people say to just let the OS handle all the vsync, ie have allow tearing turned off in display settings, adaptive sync set to auto, turn off vsync in games, and enjoy! This works OK but I can't shake the feeling that having allow tearing turned ON in display settings, and having vsync ON in game, results in better frame pacing. Would be interested to know if this has any basis in reality.

And I'm confused with how mangohud vsync options are supposed to work. In launch options in steam I can set mangohud to do 1, 2, or 3, 1 for off, 2 for mailbox, and 3 for fifo, if I'm using 2 or 3 presumably I would disable vsync in game. I can also set present mode so I can see in the mangohud overlay if its immediate, mailbox, or fifo - so I can see if it's activated correctly or not.

But it doesn't work like I'd expect.... If I have allow tearing ticked in display settings, and set vsync 2 or 3 in launch options with mangohud, I swear to god I get tearing, Mangohud is saying mailbox or fifo but the game is clearly tearing. Shouldn't mangohud supercede the allow tearing display option? If I enable vsync in game the tearing goes away.

Any thoughts? I'm new to all this but baffled as to how it's SUPPOSED to work. My other launch options are to use wayland, use latest dlss, use hdr, nothing crazy I don't think....
