Inspired by some of the classics like Return to Castle Wolfenstein and DOOM, the free shooter Darkenstein 3D has released and it's a rip-roaring good time.

I opened another thread before about gamescope but im opening another one now to focus on LSFG-VK.

I want to run a native linux appimage (shadps4) with gamescope and lsfg-vk. When i try to use both the game works but the framepacing is awful and it doesnt feel smooth at all. I found a github explaining the issue with interactions between lsfgvk and gamescope:

https://github.com/PancakeTAS/lsfg-vk/wiki/Gamescope-Compatibility/760be621450d283c0ac73b6e65e9bc0d9fb6a14e

I need a bit of help to understand how to implement this, if you skip to the bottom it says to use this:

DO NOT PUT ENABLE_LSFG=1 BEFORE "-- env"

$ gamescope (arguments) -- env ENABLE_LSFG=1 LSFG_MULTIPLIER=4 (game)

However im not sure what is the appropriate way to use it with Lutris? On lutris youre supposed to use the gamescope flag to enable it not the env variable.

If not with lutris is there another way to do this? Keep in mind this is a native Appimage software so cant just use Steam or PortProton, faugus launcher or any of those Proton launchers

Nvidia drivers compared to amd once crap…

still would a 5080 outpace a 9070XT under Linux with crappy drivers ?

CPU is a 99503dx

Any perspective appreciated

With more and more game developers creating AI slop, or just using AI generation for stupid things in their games, we need more ways to avoid them.

hi this is my first time gaming on linux and i have no experience about it, L4D2 and any Source Engine run flawlessly except Deltarune and P4G, can anyone here know what causes the problem ?

Most newer games run pretty well in 21:9 and don't require extra tinkering. Older games, however, might require tools like Flawless Widescreen or other programs to get a game to run properly in 21:9. my question to the ultrawide gamers is - Do you face any issues on linux to get games to run in 21:9?

Hi, I know there must be a lot of posts asking about "the best Linux distro for gaming," but I've been watching some videos about it, and there are still so many options. I'm interested in trying a distribution that's good for gaming and also good for normal use, since Windows 11 won't last forever, and I'll have to abandon it eventually while I look for alternatives. My main priority is gaming, followed by normal use.

These are my laptop specs (I don't know if this should be taken into account when looking for my Linux distro):

Lenovo Ideapad 3 15ITL6 Laptop

- Intel Core i5-1135G7 2.4Ghz

- 20GB DDR4 RAM (4GB soldered 3200MHz + 16GB 2667MHz)

- Intel Iris Xe Graphics

For gaming, I like to use both MNK and a gamepad.

Well that's all, I'd like to know which Linux distros would be best for gaming on a laptop with integrated graphics.

Ouch, the Xubuntu website was recently hijacked and ended up serving Windows malware, and this isn't the first time the Xubuntu site was hit.

I am considering to install this thing on my secondary PC but I have only a 750 Ti (or GT 530 which is even older). The download page says Steam is not supported with it, is that really true? I mainly want to see if I can get old games like BF3, DFBHD, AOEII or CoD4 to run under Linux. If these worked, I would migrate my laptop to Linux. The alternative would be "CachyOS", one I also hear often about.

So i had been doing only steam or heoric launcher gaming but half tempted to try out genshin or a mmo for something different.

Genshin i technically could via heoric /epic games. How picky are mmos about linux? I know most probably dont have native. Just a thought about that genre of gaming as I'm new to linux.

5800 xt , 32gb ddr4 and gtx 1070 work horse poor gpu.

Every 5 seconds, i get a lag spike that pauses my mouse activity, my keyboard activity and i cant figure out whats causing it!

Idk if I got it properly here - https://youtu.be/aLzbJIAN-Sg
Definitely noticeable here - https://youtu.be/UlmtFtu017o

I dont think its related to hyprland as it was occurring when i launched into Steam Big Picture Mode through the login manager (with Gamescope as its compositor)

running Ryzen 7 9800x3d and 5070Ti on the Linux 6.17.3-zen2-1-zen kernel.

I tried both Discord and Vesktop, both of them sometimes during a game when i press the mouse side button that is binded to "back" (the one that when you are in a browser goes back 1 page) it focuses the discord app and brings me out of the game. This is easily fixed by restarting discord but it keeps happening when i restart the computer.

Anyone else has this issue? Im on KDE latest version (bazzite KDE)

I keep having bad experiences everytime i try out gamescope, in my latest case im running shadps4 Native bloodborne and it works perfectly but if i use gamescope with the only option enabled to force 3840x2160 and nothing else it all becomes very finicky, the game wont close until i kill Lutris from system monitor, if i just do alt f4 it freezes the application, also lsfg-vk works with gamescope but in a very bad state it doesnt feel smooth at all.

And not only shadps4, but also helldivers, hunt showdown and a few other games although they work with gamescope sometimes they wont boot at all with no error until i disable it.

Im on Bazzite KDE, AMD RX7900XT, Ryzen 5 7600, 32GB ram.

Am i the only one that is having such a bad experience with it?
