Not sure if this belongs here, just wanted to share a little side project I've been working on called A3PT (ArmA 3 Preset Toolkit).

Basically, it's a few scripts I put together to help with some of the more fiddly bits of managing Arma servers and mod presets.

Some of the features include: Grab the mod list out of a preset file. (Windows and Linux) Merge two (or more) presets together. (Windows and Linux) And the newest addition, take a Steam Workshop Collection and turn it into a mod preset. (Linux only, will work on a windows port)

I've found it pretty handy for my own use, and figured some of you might too. If you're curious, you can take a peek at it on GitHub – always open to thoughts or anyone who might want to chip in.

Check it out here

Hi, I'm not a big gamer but I absolutely want to play Half-life: Alyx in the next couple of months. I plan on using a Meta Quest 3S for the VR, which means connecting to a decent GPU. I'd like to future proof things to an extent as well.

I'm at a loss what is sensible for my build and I'm trying to resist slamming down money for an overpriced GPU! My budget is ~$600, although I may need to bump my Gold 650W PSU too.

I assume NVidia is in a good place on linux now? Should I go with something with lots of VRAM (> 12GB?)?

This is my build - currently running on iGPU, which has served me well:

As you all know windows 10 support is ending on October 2025, and since i choosed which distro i'll be using as well now its time to mod my witcher 3, my favorite game after warframe, I know how to mod The Witcher 3 on windows but i have not a slighest idea about modding on linux. Will it work just by dragging mods into [Mods] folder or do i need something else? also script merger on windows will work as well? I know nothing, This is where you dear linux users come. Help me so i can overcome this and maybe others will read this post and learn it as well.
PS: I will be using Nobara Official

Note: i didn't install any proprietary nvdia drivers, im using the default came with the os ones, will switching to nvdia's help? if possible do attach a link to docs..is this okay - https://fedoramagazine.org/gaming-on-fedora/

If i play zenless zone zero without switching to any other app for like 10 mins i get a system wide freeze where nothing works(which is weird in it self how does a stable os reach this state 😭), i just see my game screen, and my mouse, no key combination got me out other than force shutdown by power button. its kind a weird it only ever reaches this state after the end of a battle (the end of battle screen)

Critical system crashs on most Steam games, some don't even start up.

journalctl tells me something about CPU: 7 failure.

Buuut...CPU as well as RAM had no trouble with their stresstests, both ended up doing more than 10 calculation cycles.

Drivers are up to date, GPU is brand spanking new (Sapphire Pure 9070XT) and is not causing any problems with whatever test I give it.

Also: Foundation (game) is the only thing that doesn't crash. Oblivion Remastered worked a day before and now doesn't even boot up, Steam play button goes blue and then green a few seconds later. All my other games boot up and then hard crash the system-

It doesn't seem to be a software issue and I am not sure whether it is the CPU or RAM. No single test was conclusive...I am a learning systems integrator who has been building PC for 20 years now, I am a little ashamed to ask.

I tried to sync Death Stranding and I went into cloud sync saves, and chose "/home/imonpines/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Death Stranding/drive_c/users/imonpines". Ngl I just kinda guessed and tried to find some place where my cloud saves may be stored I have no actual clue where to go, and searching online gave me a whole bunch of nothing.

but it just gives me back this:

[Core] INFO: Trying to re-use existing login session...

[cli] INFO: Got 1 remote save game(s)

[cli] INFO: Checking "Death Stranding" (Boga)

[cli] INFO: Overriding save path with "/home/imonpines/Games/Heroic/Prefixes/default/Death Stranding/drive_c/users/imonpines"...

[cli] INFO: Save game for "Death Stranding" is up to date, skipping...

I just opened it to try again, and now the bottom line has changed, before it said

"Save game uploading is disabled, skipping... "

compared to now where it says what you see up here:

"[cli] INFO: Save game for "Death Stranding" is up to date, skipping..."

And nothing happens after that it just sits there.

So while trying to play hunt showdown with my friend, textures and objects in the game world refused to load in. I have tried deleting the user file, tried proton experimental, hotfix, GE-Proton9-27. Any help is appreciated.

I downloaded some MOD from GameBanana, which can unlock the game's FPS limit.

But I have a question:

If my monitor's maximum supports 60 FPS, but my graphics card can reach 200 FPS, how will the last FPS be?

I am testing whether MODs will work on Linux through Proton.

So I have been using CachyOS as my main distro for two days now. Nearly all of it is running very well but I got a problem with THPS3 with the Update Mod. I try to run the game on Lutris but the only thing I get is the title screen and then it immediately closes afterwards. Tony Hawks Underground 1 and 2 run flawlessly with Partymod so idk what the problem is. The Log says this:

I recently pulled the trigger to switch to Linux for my gaming machine, as I was tired of Windows 11's recent inclusions; and since I had already switched to Linux for work years ago, and know my way around Ubuntu, I decided to go with Arch, so I could get my hands dirty with things. Everything has been going relatively well, minus this game.

This game was obviously running perfectly fine under Windows with good enough framerates, but on Linux I just get about 8-10 FPS, and like, 20% CPU and GPU usage across the board. It's a bit odd that it's doing this.

Cropped screenshot of Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, showcasing mangohud with a GPU marker at 19%, CPU marker at 17%, framerate of 8 FPS, and 126.1 ms of frametimes at the time of the screenshot.

My system specs are as follows:
- CPU: Ryzen 7 5800X
- GPU: Radeon RX 9070 XT
- 32GB of RAM

The game is running off of the boot drive, a 1TB NVME SSD. I had recently changed my vulkan implementation from `vulkan-radeon` to `amdvlk`, since the game wouldn't run at all with the prior one. I know I do have a slight CPU bottleneck going on here (or at least I think so) but, this feels like something is just off with my setup. Any insights would be very much appreciated!

Hello everyone! Just here to ask if anybody was trying gaming on kubuntu 25.04 and how it was going so far. Because i am and it's not going so well. For instances, i had to install flatpak steam because the .deb was opening only from the terminal amd not from the .desktop file (which configuration appeared to me to be ok). And furthermore my controller isn't working very well, since some buttons aren't detected when pressed (i tested if they were broken with an online tester and they were not). Plus, i had to switch back to x11 graphic server because on wayland i couldn't uncheck the setting which let the apps to stop the compositor (i don't know if this is related to wayland or my distro)... Finally i got the feeling everything's not very stable, but i can't say it's more than a feeling.

I bought a new graphic card and so i decided to mak a fresh install and try 25.04. I was before on 24.04, which had its issues but on the gaming side it was ok.

So any gamer on 25.04 like me?

P.S.: i can't decide which flair suits this better. I'll pick the closest one i guess.

I have an RTX 3060 and I currently use Pop!_OS, but is Cachy OS better? I've seen people get more performance on it with games.

Recently, problems started with native Dota 2 on Steam via vulkan, 30-40 minutes after the launch and active game, it starts to freeze wildly, as if 15 FPS, but in fact, the counters show that there are more than 200 FPS. Everything seems to be OK with the drivers, other games don't behave like that outside of steam. I haven't tried to test other games in steam yet, if that's what I'll add to the question.

We gave Vircadia a full Gen 2 overhaul (big thanks to our sponsors such as Linux Professional Institute, Deutsche Telekom, etc. for enabling this), aiming to cut down on code bloat and boost performance. The main shift is swapping out our custom backend infrastructure for a battle-tested, high-performance system like PostgreSQL with Bun wrapping and managing every end of it.

It's kind of unheard of to do this for things like game dev (preferring custom solutions), but it works and makes things way easier to manage. The shape of the data in a database affects how well it works for a use case, and that model scales well for virtually every kind of software ever, the same should apply here!

Feel free to prototype some game ideas you might have been tossing around, our priority is DX for the project as a whole to enable more developers with less resources to build bigger worlds, so please do share feedback here and/or in GH issues!

Our roadmap is for more SDKs, and cutting down on bloat where possible, with the express goal of giving devs more cycles in the day to focus on the actual gameplay instead of tooling.
