Is vkBasalt still a thing?

11. Juli 2025 - 23:54

vkBasalt was supposed to be kind of a shader thing like ReShade is for Windows. There is ReShade for linux in form of a script (reshade-steam-proton), but both projects haven't been updated in 2 years.

I still use reshade-steam-proton, and it still works, but i wonder what happened with vkBasalt.

Cause i never got it to work (years ago when ti was active), and now it seems abandoned. Is it merged into something maybe?

Anyone know anything about it?

Has anyone benchmarked latency differences in Standard, Zen, Cachy, and Xanmod Kernels?

11. Juli 2025 - 23:50

Is there any latency comparison between the most popular kernels? Standard, Zen, Cachy, Xanmod? I often see benchmarks focusing on framerate and 1% lows, which are definitely important, but latency is almost always left out in those comparisons.

Slow mouse movements not detected when not using native res

11. Juli 2025 - 23:37

When trying to run cs2 with stretched res I have this wierd problem on Wayland where if I am holding an angle or just generally moving the mouse slowly, the mouse movements will not get recognized.

This does not seem to happen when using native or for some reason when on full screen windowed (fps take a huge hit, can't really play on that)

I have tried using gamescope to set the resolution and also setting it to 4:3 on the whole system but that doesn't seem to work either

I am on NixOs Gnome (Wayland). Any help is appreciated, thanks!

GE-Proton10-9 Released

11. Juli 2025 - 23:21
GE-Proton10-9 Released

Repository: GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom · Tag: GE-Proton10-9 · Commit: c7b8677 · Released by: GloriousEggroll

  • Added ntsync support:

    Enable with PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1

    NOTES:

    1. Your kernel must be patched with ntsync patches. If your system does not have /dev/ntsync then your kernel does not have the patches required to use ntsync.
    2. Some applications, mostly 32 bit, may also need PROTON_USE_WOW64=1 when using ntsync
  • Added FSR4 upgrade support via PROTON_FSR4_UPGRADE=1 (auto upgrades from amd directly https://download.amd.com/dir/bin/amdxcffx64.dll)

  • Added fixes from upstream for flicker/rendering issue when using wine-wayland

  • Refactored a lot of the patches section and cleaned up outdated or merged patches

  • Update wine-wayland patches

  • Updated wine to latest bleeding edge

  • Updated dxvk to latest git

  • Updated vkd3d-proton to latest git

  • Imported all upstream proton changes

  • protonfixes: added a fix for winetricks wget gnutls failing inside fex

  • protonfixes: add fix for sifu freeze (thanks UsernamesAreNotMyThing)

My performance is a lie.

11. Juli 2025 - 23:11

You heard it here. My performance in Linux is a lie. How dare I have better numbers across the board compared to W11. Haha but fr. Anyone else get this regularly when joining a conversation on games? I find it funny but also I really wish this wasn't the stigma with Linux. I am on a full AMD build of course. I'm aware it's not as good with Nvidia. But man I have 20-30% gains sometimes. Anyone else? Or is my GPU/CPU just god tier and beyond any other benchmarks on the Internet. Because a lot of benchmarks don't even show the gains I see. For reference I'm rocking a 7900xt 7800x3d 32gb ram Cachy os

Presenting: Minecraft: Multi-Edition Launcher (MCMEL) for Linux!

11. Juli 2025 - 22:48
Hey r/linux_gaming

Tired of not being able to play Minecraft Bedrock, Dungeons, or Legends on Linux, through one launcher? I've created MCMEL, a new launcher that brings multiple Minecraft editions together in one place, just for us.

What does it do?

MCMEL lets you launch Minecraft: Java Edition, Bedrock Edition, Dungeons/Legends, and even Xbox 360 Edition. (Story Mode 1/2 support coming someday™)

Important: This launcher does not support piracy. Please own the games you play!

Features:
  • Unified Access: Launch multiple Minecraft games from one app.
  • Hide/Show Editions: Customize your launcher.
How to use it?

You can download the launcher from Github. Just run mcmel and start configuring the launcher.

Each edition has specific requirements (like MultiMC for Java or MCPELauncher for Bedrock) and simple setup steps detailed in project's README.

Got any questions or need help? Join my Discord Server!

I'm excited to hear what you think of MCMEL!

The Crew 2 still don't work in 2025 despite a Linux build

11. Juli 2025 - 22:27

Yes , a The Crew 2 build exist in the past : The Google Stadia version.

Never forget Stadia cloud gaming use Linux as OS...

Ubisoft literally do the job (with €€€ from Google ?) of a Linux version.

Why don't provide a offline version/Linux online exclusive version, like Stadia era ?

When many dev are just lazy to dev games and anticheat for Linux, Ubisoft do a finger, they have all the base to do a working Linux version (thanks to Google) , but no just incompatible game...

If you want to boycott no Linux studio, do Ubisoft first as boycott, and I said this as french citizen.

It's a shame to not provide a working product, when this working version exist !

I hope with the SKG possible success, Ubisoft use the Stadia build for the offline mode, as lazyness.

Is FSR4 with optiscaler possible on mesa 25.1.4?

11. Juli 2025 - 20:44

Recently did a build with a 9070XT, I'm trying to get FSR4 working in Cyberpunk using Optiscaler but it's not giving me the option to use FSR4. I followed the instructions here except for one thing, which is installing mesa-git - I'm on fedora so there isn't an easy way to install it, I could build it myself but I kinda don't wanna go through the trouble of that. But, the guide doesn't explicitly say what version of mesa is required, as mesa-git essentially just means latest from the gitlab. Fedora is on 25.1.4 which is still fairly modern, though mesa-git is on 25.2 from what I can tell. Is 25.2 absolutely necessary for FSR4? Or is it that I did something else wrong with Optiscaler?

I have no experience with VR but I have a VR headset I would like to test. Is that actually a thing on Linux, or am I just fucked ?

11. Juli 2025 - 19:50

any games / software I can use ? they would need to be free or pirateable as it's just for a short test.
