am using proton to try and get it work but when i changed it's exe location in the shortcut tab, proton now no longer loads it up.

having issues finding good shooter games similar to call of duty: modern warfare or battlefield 6

(sorry if i used the wrong tag i didnt know which one was the best one)

I run cachyOS with an rx7900xt and a ryzen 9 5900x. I also use hyprland. and I used to get 300-400 fps in an empty map in cs2 but now I only get ~250. my GPU usage only ever gets to about 60%. I used to only see a small difference in framerate between linux and windows but its massive now, I also used to get at least 80% gpu usage, now it only ever gets to 60-70%. has anyone else noticed the performance getting worse on CS2 linux? I know this isn't really enough information for anyone to help me actually fix anything, I just wanted to know if other people have had this issue so I can figure out if its a CS2 thing or something I did. you cant que if you run cs2 through proton but you can open private matches and my performance on proton is better then native. I reinstalled cachy OS last night and my performance is the same.

have a 300 hz monitor so it does matter to me if i get 250 or 400 fps. performance is also worse in a real game vs an empty match so 400 fps in an empty map means I will get like 250-300 in a match and 300 in an empty map means I will get like 150-250 in an actual match.

I'm trying to fix the Snap version of the Heroic Games Launcher.

I managed to build it, log into my account, run 32-bit and 64-bit games, use MangoHUD in 64-bit games, and create game shortcuts in the applications menu.

I need people to test and report any problems found only in the Snap version, so I can try to resolve what's possible.

The link to the Snap versions I build is this: https://github.com/Kyuyrii/Test-Snap-Heroic/releases

I have tried everything to get Zombie Panic Source to work, using AI to install dependencies with Proton Tricks and Proton Up QT, I have tried different versions of Proton for compatibility and even launch parameters in the game, but I can't get it to start.

i just got linux mint and i genuinely have 0 computer skills (my dad downloaded it for me because he really wants me to learn to code). can someone just help me download good and safe autoclicker? :)

Hi, I'm having problems with Ubuntu. Eden isn't detecting my controller in JS0, but it is in Yuzu. I'd like to know how to get Eden to detect the controller. I'm playing in a Docker container with a Linux GLX Desktop image. Is there any way to use the controller plugin that Yuzu uses with Eden?

When i tried to install it I followed an official guide, installed files into "/usr/bin/protonhax", gave it permission to execute and added "protonhax init %COMMAND%" to my steam game properties, but when I tried to run the game it just loaded infinitely and terminal didn't understand protonhax commands. Most likely I gave permissions the wrong way, so, can someone please help me with installing it?

Yeah... Currently using 1070Ti, and while it performs fine, and well, even wayland working nicely, the driver situation... it's just pain.

So was looking at GPUs,a nd.. Well, B570 is tempting, supposedly decent performance, more VRAM, and... drivers. Yeah, drivers.

How are the drivers under linux for those Battlemage GPUs?

When I click the play button nothing happens

Is there a list of variables with descriptions? I’ve found a few short ones here and there but I’d like something where I can get more information on when and how to use them.

EDIT: I generally only use steam to play games atm.

Hello,

I was running KDE neon for about a year and decided to switch distros to Fedora 43 KDE.

It works great and has been very good, but TF2 specifically runs visibly worse especially when looking at a lot of geometry (actual model count doesn't seem to matter — I can be in intense team fights with about the typical performance — the problem is worst when looking at a large open-ended map).

My specs should have TF2 running at >200 FPS at all times, which is what it did on KDE neon, especially on older maps. I'm on the Wayland compositor now and was on the Wayland compositor on neon, so it can't be a X11/Wayland issue.

My Vulkan instance version is 1.4.328, and Mesa version is 25.2.7.

I've been running TF2 at lower settings than I typically did on KDE neon and performance is still worse at these high-geometry moments. There are moments in-game where I vividly recall a specific place I'm walking into/out of having much higher FPS on the same hardware stack and here running at a lower FPS. The "high-geometry" thing could also be a red herring, I'm not sure.

Is there something wrong with my driver stack? Vulkan version? Mesa/OpenGL version? Other problems I'm not seeing?

If there is any information at all I can give additionally that will help you good folks figure out the problem, I'm happy to give it.

Thank you.

EDIT: My specs:

16 GB DDR4 3000MHz RAM

AMD Ryzen 5 3600 6-Core Processor with 4.6 GHz max clock

Radeon RX 56 Vega Graphics

Kernel version: 6.18.2 tkg

Title, basically i played Hogwarts Legacy notice some random framedrops maybe because of my HDD? The gpu or cpu and ram they are well above the recomended requirements, maybe they are waiting for hdd to give some data or assets maybe proton needs some overhead for data reads or any software tweaks i can maximize my hdd performance.

Context: didnt have any issues on windows using hdd and the game is rated platinum in protondb.

OS: Fedora 43 GNOME

I'm trying to play Ghost of Tsushima which has frame gen, GPU is rx 9060 XT, my monitor is 180 hz, OS is linux mint 22.2.

How do I like render lets say 90 fps and let the frame gen render/create the remaining 90 fps ?

I activated the frame gen option in the game but I don't even know if its working or how it works, this seems confusing to me.

After SDL2 2.30.0 , controllers like Nacon GC100 are detected but buttons are swapped/missing in:

• Heroic Games Launcher (Epic/GOG)
• Ryujinx/Yuzu/Suyu Switch emulators
• Any SDL2 app (non-Steam games)

Issue: Joystick backend refactor changed GUID/CRC detection. My Nacon GC100 worked perfectly before, now A=back button, etc

FIX:

Use the SDL_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG environment variable with your controller's mapping string. Add it via Flatseal for Flatpak apps or prefix .desktop Exec lines with env SDL_GAMECONTROLLERCONFIG="your_string,"

it just wont show up no matter what i trhow in the terminal, in game or the steam launch options. and when i run a command to install it it tells me nothing matches or nothing found and flathub remote or what it was wont show up or something im done with this and i installed it correctly too i tried to run the games from steam with the mangohud=1 %command%

im on pop_os, im using wayland and ive tried the Left shift+f12 thing pls help yall are my last hope
