Fallout76 Low FPS on High End System

18. April 2024 - 22:54

I'm trying to run Fallout76 on Pop!_OS 22.04 using GE-Proton9-4 and average about 20 FPS on a pretty decent system. I need help figuring this out please.

System: OS: Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS x86_64 CPU: 12 Gen Intel i9-12900K 5.1 GHz Memory: 96GB 6400 MHz GPU: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Path to config files:

/mnt/Games/SteamLibrary/steamapps/compatdata/1151340/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/My Games/Fallout 76

What I've done so far:

I've modified the Fallout76.ini, Fallout76Custom.ini, and Fallout76Prefs.ini file as suggested in the following sites:

Here are the full settings for each file:

I've also tried most of the suggestions on ProtonDB for launch options with no success. I would love to run this game at 165 FPS or anything above 60. I appreciate any feedback and suggestions from other players who successfully play this on a Linux system.

Steam will not recognize second drive

18. April 2024 - 22:36

Hey all! Very new to linux so apologies if this sounds stupid.

I have a dual boot system with windows and linux on separate drives, with a third drive (labeled “Storage”) which stores my steam games. However, steam absolutely will not recognize that drive, no matter what i do.

Details: - Running Linux Mint 21.2 Cinnamon 5.8.4 - Storage drive is formatted in exFat - Storage drive is set to mount at startup at the point /media/hutch2much/Storage - Storage drive does not contain at “compatdata” file under steamapps - xdg-desktop-portal, xdg-desktop-portal-gtk, and xdg-desktop-portal-xapp are all installed; no other xdg-desktop packages are

does anybody know what i should do? i’ve been banging my head against this wall for a while now @_@

toggle key on Mouse - Mouse Macro on onboard memory xbindkeys

18. April 2024 - 22:02

Because I can't use my little finger well, I usually put the Run key on a special key on my mouse. So that I can switch racing on and off. Expressly not with a permanently pressed button, but as a switch.

actually sounded easy. But it doesn't seem to be the case. The onboard memory of my Logitech mouse doesn't seem to store the toggle function. With Piper I can change the key assignments, but there doesn't seem to be a Toogle function.

I wrote a script with xbindkeys that also works on the desktop level, but not in the game. Maybe blocked by easyanticheat...

I don't know Now I'm actually willing to do anything except invest more time. I would also buy a new mouse. But unfortunately it's hard to find out which mouse has real onboard memory on which you can also use "more complex" macros.

Anyone an idea?

Mouse cursor not locked to windowed games? (Fedora)

18. April 2024 - 21:58

I've recently tried to play Fallout 76 and Fallout 4 on Fedora. I've played a lot of helldivers 2 but never had this issue:

In fallout 76 there is windowed/fullscreen settings. When playing fullscreen the cursor will come off of the right side of the screen onto my other monitor in gameplay. The cursor isn't locked onto the screen while the game is active. It is the weirdest thing. And I've verified it is 100% on fullscreen mode and I have restarted.

In Fallout 4, in windowed mode, the cursor just doesn't care there is a game window running. The cursor very easily just goes off of the game window in all directions. It is a terrible experience.

Am I missing something there? Normally mouse cursors are locked in a game window until you Windows key or alt out of them to the desktop. This is the oddest thing and I want to fix it so I can play these games.

Seems as if gaming companies just don't like Linux

18. April 2024 - 21:03

This all started when Roblox first removed support for wine, Most things were smooth sailing up until then. Roblox then added back wine support for a short duration of time but then removed it later down the road.
This is not that bad most people who game on Linux probably aren't playing Roblox anyways. Now everything seems good, But now Plants vs zombies Garden warfare 2 added a kernel anticheat which makes Wine no longer supported. I mean thats the only 2 games I can thing of off the top of my head but if you want to you could add some in the comments that you want to play on linux.

Digital Vibrance on Nobara

18. April 2024 - 19:59

Is it normal for nobara with the nvidia drivers version to not have the powermizer and the monitor settings in the nvidia x settings app? Is it because of Wayland? If so, does anyone know any other ways to increase digital vibrance?

Where to go for support in linux gaming?

18. April 2024 - 19:52

Hey,

I've just built a new machine and elected to take a stab at running linux as a primary os (specifically the Aurora derivative of Fedora/Kinoite 40). This is my first time running linux on a non-work machine, and certainly my first time trying to game on one. It seems like all the game specific communities are windows focused and wouldn't be able to help much, while the general communities, such as this one, also don't seem appropriate for posting game specific tech help requests...so where should I go?

Just by way of example, my proximate problem is that cyberpunk through steam/proton will only run in borderless windowed mode but provides no options (blank menu) for adjusting the resolution. The result is that I'm stuck with a game window that only uses 1/4 of my monitor. Directly trying to set the res in usersettings.json doesn't seem to do anything either...

Anyway, help with direction to an appropriate community, or with my direct problem would both be appreciated.

Thanks!

A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment

18. April 2024 - 17:45

The error log

Hi there!

So whenever I try opening up my Minecraft and the loading starts, it just immediately closes or crashes. Then I checked up for some crash logs and unfortunately found this: "A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment." I have never encountered this error before and everything was running well with my Minecraft before I updated my jdk-openjdk. After some digging, some of the forums I've read said that updating openjdk should fix this. I'm already in the latest version which is weird enough. Reinstalling both minecraft or openjdk doesn't help either. My guess was that updating openjdk was the cause of this error. What do you guys think I should do?

Lag during WoW Classic

18. April 2024 - 17:12

Hey,

I'm trying to run WoW Classic on my machine, but I run into some lag issues.

I'm running Linux Mint 21.3, and launching WoW either via battle net in Lutris 0.5.9.1-1 or directly through wine 6.0.3

When trying to launch wow.exe through wine I get error; RtlpWaitForCriticalSection in console.

I read that WoW should be run in dxvk mode v1.10.3/2.3.1 (which I do in the runner in Lutris), however I don't see the option enabled ingame, only DirectX11 shows as an graphics API option. Battle.net is launched with the command line arguments "-d3d11"

I have nouveau drivers for a NVIDIA graphics card. Is it correct that nouveau don't support Vulkan drivers currently? If so the issue might be there? NVK Nvidia supports vulkan drivers, but aren't supported on Linux Mint 21.3.

There is an option to build the driver itself if that could help solve the issue.

Btw: Ingame I can read the text: Compiling shaders 0-100 a bunch of times.

Help is greatly appreciated:)

Black screen in game and no characters on pause menu on Yakuza 8

18. April 2024 - 15:47

Hello people. I'm trying Nobara OS. I installed Yakuza 8 and the cinematics show fine, but when I load my saved game, the screen goes black. Likewise, I even go to the pause menu and mostly everything appears fine, except the characters. (Screenshot attached). It's like the display has layers and one of them is missing?

This game is Platinum in ProtonDB. I even tested different proton versions as the testimonies there. Tried: Experimental, 9 beta, 8 and 7. No luck.

Any tips or hints I could try? I would love to go full Linux for gaming.

I have an intel i7 13th, RTX 4070Ti, 2 WD black SSDs, one with Windows and the other with Nobara.
