Im quite new to linux gaming

I kept getting error whenever im trying to install dotnet48, whether its assetto corsa or gta v. (through winecfg)

Currently on PikaOS, RTX 3070 Mobile, Ryzen 9 5900HS, ROG Zephyrus G15 GA503QR.

obviously kernel level anti-cheat is the single biggest issue, but as someone that generally doesnt play a ton of PVP games an even bigger issue has been "support apps", for lack of a better term. ive been playing new vegas for the first time and modding that to be playable took a lot more leg work to get working though was relatively doable, but there has been a few times where that hasnt been the case. trying to get custom keybinds working in warcraft 3 did not work, the modding program for persona 5 strikers didnt work, and currently im trying to set up alcaframe for warframe and that is also not working (if anyone has pointers for this one PLEASE let me know, farming plat without it is a nightmare), and a friend of mine spent hours trying to get an overlay for guildwars 2 working ( i THINK she did manage to get it working but its very shakey).

Hi, I'm trying to play Strinova. I use arch. I've tried both with the launcher.exe installed through Lutris and with a regular Steam installation, and when I launch the game, after pressing the key, I get this error.

I've tried different versions of Proton and nothing works.

Can anyone test if it's currently working for them?

Thanks

Was wondering if anybody had any luck in getting 2XKO's offline launcher to run under Linux?

This should theoretically (?) be possible as 2XKO's offline version can run on Windows without Vanguard being active. However, trying to launch it on Linux gives me a black screen and a "Fatal error!" message. I'm not sure if this is a 2XKO-specific issue or an issue with my setup.

I've tried the LoL branch of wine-ge-custom in Lutris.
Having the Riot Client running at the same time on the same wine prefix doesn't seem to do anything.

I've heard about WiVRn but it seems that it works wirelessly, I have shit WiFi so the only way for me to play games reliably is with a link cable from my PC to my Quest. How exactly would I do that for linux if I wanted to use a link cable to play SteamVR games?

Hey, I've been trying to run the game Outlast Trials with DX12 because in-game it claims that it is highly more optimized for it rather than for DX11, and says that I need to reboot the game for it to take effect, but every time I do so, it auto switches back to DX11.

I've tried running the game with -dx11 and also -dx12 in the launch options but it just wouldn't even launch when I put those in.

Anybody know if this is possible at all? I'm on Linux Mint.

Thanks in advance!

Ubuntu ,both bottles and lutris crashes for Devil May Cry 5 when I enable DLL override for dinput8. Hi. I think there is some small setting or tweak or permission which I am missing. The tutorials on youtube are clear, and the games are running fine without mods. I can also install mods via fluffymanager and run the game. However, I would love to enable dll overrides, so that I can enable SSSIyan cheat trainer and RE Framework. Could you help me out?

Like any decent laptop, I have Windows 11 Pro and games run reasonably well, but I only have 16GB of RAM and the system alone uses 9-10GB just starting up! I've disabled all startup programs, but the RAM usage hasn't decreased. This is detrimental to gaming because the system quickly becomes overloaded, and even in demanding games, games crash or the frame rate drops drastically when the graphics card isn't even at 60%. I was thinking of installing Steam OS as a secondary system exclusively for gaming and using Windows 11 for everything else, but is that viable? Is it even possible?

I have a Thinkpad L14 gen 2 Ryzen 5 pro 5650u

Which Linux would be good to download?

Windows 11 consume bastante🥺

Huge shoutout to u/randomusernameonweb, infact they were the one who developed this method to begin with.

This is the github repository for this project: https://github.com/Weather-OS/WineGDK

So, I recently started to back away from windows. Installed Mint alongside Win10 and filled out the stuff I wanted to try: coding and steam, mostly. Performance was surprisingly good, STALKER 2 ran disturbingly better on Mint than it did on Windows. So I decided to check out Fedora KDE and maybe move some more of my library over.

Went "all out" with it: Got a better, bigger SATA SSD for it; deleted the 150gb root/home partition and expanded to about 300gb for root and allocated 550gb on an NVME for Home. May have deleted the grub files along with the old Mint system, but grub recovery and I worked things out...

That is more or less where it went downhill. Installed Fed + steam + Ark SA + STALKER2. Stalker does not run anywhere near as good as it did on Mint, basically down to Windows level. Ark runs significantly worse than Windows, that's fine tho, I know you have to take it on a game by game basis. Decided to take a look at the system:

• I have an AMD GPU, RX 6800XT, so probably not the issue.
• Checked drivers anyway -> They're fine. Normal radeon drivers, probably not the issue.
• Installed the Codecs Fedora does not include -> Went fine, never was the issue anyway.
• Set power profile to performance -> No change as far as I could tell.

I did notice that my GPU rarely if ever made it to 90%+ usage. It went all the way to 95-100% just fine on Win and Mint. On Fedora, it hovers around 80% or less most of the time and randomly goes down to 50 for a couple moments, then back up to 60-80.

Also tried a bunch of commands on the internet that I don't remember to take a look at what Fedora had running: Mostly went as expected, running the right radeon drivers, power settings, etc..

My best guesses are:

• Borked Fedora install;
• Proton on Fedora is not as good as on Mint;
• I fucked up somewhere.

Could use a bit of help here due to my repertoire of ideas coming to it's end. Are these things I experienced expected?

Also: Why are dnf repos so empty? In Mint I could usually "sudo apt install" almost anything that came to mind and it worked. Here? 3/4 of the stuff I try doesn't exist and half the stuff on Discovery are flatpacks.

( I originally posted this over on r/linux4noobs, but I didn't find a solution. )

I'm currently on Fedora 42, using KDE Plasma. I've noticed a problem whenever I run anything graphically intensive on my system, where other windows and apps on my system begin to visually glitch out or freeze.

Recently, I've been playing a lot of Helldivers and CK3, and I've noticed that whenever I run those games for a long enough period (around 30 min or so, sometimes longer), whenever I tab out to check on something like Discord or Firefox, the windows for those apps are bugged where they are frozen on the last frame that was displayed before it bugged out. Oddly, I can still interact with them like normal, but there is no visual feedback, it just looks frozen (i can mute my mic on discord or minimize firefox just fine).

I've tried searching for solutions, and I haven't been able to come across anything that has helped, other than it possibly being an Electron issue (in that case, I don't know why Firefox is bugged too). Does anyone know of anything I can try to get this fixed without completely switching my desktop environment? My specs are listed below. Thanks.

OS: Fedora 42 KDE

CPU: i7-11700k (non-overclocked)

GPU: Nvidia RTX 3070 (driver version 580.95.05)

RAM: 32gb DDR4 @ 3200Mhz

MOBO: Asus PRIME Z590-P

Edit: Forgot to mention that I am on Wayland (Fedora dropped support for X11 a while back), and I run my games primarily through Steam.

Vampire: The Masquerade — Redemption running with good performance

This basically means that old 32-bit Windows games that hit OpenGL path (like DX7 ones that need wined3d or actual OpenGL games) can run on 64-bit Wine using thunking without performance problems.

VtM - Redemption went from 1 fps slideshow to normal framerate in such mode.

Now I can remove all 32-bit packages and i386 arch from my Debian installation :)

Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble running Minecraft on my Arch Linux system with an AMD Ryzen 5 5500U and integrated Radeon graphics. Minecraft crashes with a segmentation fault (SIGSEGV) during startup or gameplay.

Here's what I have tried so far:

• Updated the Mesa drivers and related AMD packages
• Updated my system
• Tried different Java version( OpenJDK 21)
• Tested running vanilla Minecraft without mods like Sodium and Iris
• Increased JVM memory allocation to 8GB

Despite this, the game still crashes with similar errors involving native libraries and OpenGL calls.

If anyone has experienced this or has ideas on how to fix it, I'd really appreciate the help!

I'm using official Minecraft launcher and Arch Linux Gnome.

Edit 1 add log: https://mclo.gs/6QxHaWx

Edit 2 more info: Games like Bread and Fred and Counter Strike 1.6 on Steam also crashing

Any native game I launch on steam seems to be refusing to use my nvidia gpu whatsoever and I can't figure out how to make it work. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I'm losing my mind over this. I'd prefer to not need to use proton to run these titles so if anyone has anything thank you.

System Info -

Nvidia GPU: GTX 1650 Mobile / Max-Q running on the Proprietary Nvidia version 580

Intel Integrated GPU: Intel Corporation TigerLake-H GT1 [UHD Graphics]

OS: Ubuntu 24.04 running on Gnome 46 X11

Hi, my Xbox controller isn't working in Mortal Kombat Legacy Kollection, I can't even navigate the menus. XInput, Steam, and my computer all detect the controller and my controller is in great condition. Checked mappings on Antimicrox, they seem to be correct. I believe this is a game-only issue but I wanted to be sure it wasn't to do with the fact Windows is more compatible for gaming than Linux.

Please let me know if there's a solution!
