It happened in one of the Motortown : Behind the wheel community servers. The servers crashed and I was just wondering if the owner (happy ghast pfp) runs linux machine since they are (as far as I heard) proven to be more stable.

Ok, so i finally got around to trying out "Last Epoch", because all the other RPGs suck ass, have bombed, or are just in an awful state. PoE is dying. PoE 2 isn't anywhere near, a fun game. Diablo 3 is gasping its last dying breath. Diablo 4 was still born. And so on... So... "Last Epoch" is what i decided on...

Now, running Nobara 41, and been super blessed with this distro, because i am a gamer. - I've also had issues, because it is Linux. Goes with the territory, i guess. Right?
So, about half my library on Steam, plays for 30-45 minutes, and then starts to stutter real bad. Like the FPS drops to around 20, give or take a couple.
And that bothered me greatly, until i wrote a post, balling my eyes out about it, and a kindhearted soul presented me with a fix.

Ad this to the Steam "Launch option" :

LD_PRELOAD=”” %command%

Now, i'm a gamer, not a coder, nor even someone particularly smart. So, i have no clue what this command does, but lo and behold. Stutter went away, so what do i care... Right? It works... And all games, that have given me stutters, have since been fixed with this command. Genius really, if ya ask me.

But fast forward to today.

I buy "Last Epoch" and install it. Nothing.
I start up the game. Perfect.
I play for 30-45 minutes. Stutter.
Fuck. I forgot the command.
So, i exit the game. I enter the command.
And i start up the game again. - NOTHING?
That's a first. I remove the launch option, and try again.
Start game. Nothing? WTF?
Steam says "Game running". Even 20 min later, and still nothing happens.
So, i stop the game manually. And for the next hour, i try different versions of with or without launch option.
I try restarting steam. I try restarting my computer.

And for some unknown, godforsaken reason... Now it just doesn't wanna start up again...
Steam keeps saying "Game running". Yet, nothing appears on my monitor. What the hell ?

Does anyone have a clue, what is going on?
And potentially have a fix to my issue?

Sufficed to say... I'm a gamer, so at BEST an average Linux user, and that's giving myself high praise... Nah, i'm a novice...
So in case, your answer or questions require technical terms... Kindly dumb it down, so my brain (As it is) has a chance to keep up...

Thanks.

Hi

We basically all know about the 15-20% performance drop when comparing Windows performance vs Linux performance for Nvidia RTX cards and running DX12 (and according to my data DX11) titles, on Linux with VKD3D (resp. DXVK).

Even Nvidia is aware of the issue: https://forums.developer.nvidia.com/t/directx12-performance-is-terrible-on-linux/303207 (apparently it's bug id 5131298).

So I've acquired a RTX 5060 Ti and wanted to see this myself and I saw that Baldurs Gate 3 does show no issues of that sort - no matter whether running Vulkan or DX11.

So what's up with that? What are your thoughts?

(I think that this flair will be right)

Ok, so please, correct me if I'm wrong about it, but from what I found.. I think that Heroic Launcher allows usage of Epic Games on Linux and it can actually help with setting whole Wine/Proton architecture required to run games, right?

Nobara linux with kde fully updated

I'm currently waiting on a 10ft HDMI 2.0 cable and an active displayport to hdmi converter to see if that helps but I'm not sure why this worked fine on windows but not Linux.

I'm running Ubuntu 22.04 LTS and just installed lutris, wine, and winetricks for the 6th time trying to get this launcher up and running. I tried running the stared launcher designed for GTAV and it would error out with code 256. Getting the older launcher works and it installs but thats it. As soon as I back out and try and run it again the installer hangs at a few errors and printouts. I tried following the prompt on lutris as it installs saying 'dont login, close and THEN reopen' and also just continuing to login and check for games. Either one still ends with the same result: I try running the launcher again and it hangs indefinitely.
below is the printout i get in the terminal when i try and launch the rockstar games launcher.

Hello everyone!

I've been reading that kernel 6.14 substantially increases gaming performance! Would it be right to update the Linux Mint kernel via the mainline, or should I do it another way? Thank you!

The free to play online co-op dungeon crawler Never Split the Party from Legend Studio just had a massive update to celebrate one million downloads. Quite a surprise, since the last update to the game was back in 2022.

Looking to clean up desk space and modern monitors with built in KVM seem promising. Any suggestions on brands that work with 1 Linux desktop and 1 Linux laptop? Gigabyte seems promising.

I've tried my best to find answers to the title but does anyone know of a way to run Steam games with gamescope installed using flatpak when the steam itself is installed using the native package manager? I'm using Ubuntu 24.04 and I was hoping I won't have to switch to the flatpak Steam version, however, I had a hard time finding any info on what the launch options should be :(
