So I want to try the new Ragnarok Online LATAM server, but the AC is nProtect Gameguard. Is there any way to bypass it?

I have tried with wine/proton, but get the CNProtectGameGuardMgr::CreateInstance() error. I know Helldivers 2 use it and playing is possible on Linux, but not sure if it's the case for any game?

Even VM would be acceptable if it works

Last Epoch's Season 2 came out yesterday, but I was experiencing weird stutters despite playing only on 1080p with 5700x3d, 7800xt on CachyOS.

Turns out it's a DX11 game and it had issues with Proton-Experimental.

Had to download Proton- GE then opening the game's options and under Compatability selecting a specific proton-ge version (as the rest of my games run well with proton-experimental), then run the game with DXVK_ASYNC=1 and things feel much much smoother now with lows not dipping below 130s.

My screen started to look like this and I want to know what is causing it and how to solve it. I am using debian and the proprietary Nvidia drivers.

I launched sons of the forest with this command:
gamescope --mangoapp -f -W 2560 -w 2560 -H 1440 -h 1440 -- game-performance %command%
Mangohud displays 15fps, when the in game counter (on the left, second column) is showing the real fps (i can feel they are not 15 in game).
I have this issue also launching games with lutris. I am using cachyos with proton-cachyos.

Hi everyone, today I got a question for y'all. I've never used Linux, I used Windows until now. RIght now, I'm thinking about moving to Linux, and I need y'all help. I play new games, and old games, that I usually crack on windows. Is it possible to do so on Linux? Is modding available on Linux? I usually play GTA SA with mods, and I'd like to be able to do so in linux too. Thanks anticipated.

Heya folks,

Have setup Mint and Arch and had the all working extremely well with the games I play. One I do play is EVE and it is very comms heavy. Sometimes multiple mumble and discord comms.

In Windows its just multiple push to talk keys, but I can't seem to get this working unless the app is focused in Linux. Have read about it and it seems to be a security measure but has anyone got some insight into making it work. Really the only thing that's holding me back on a full switch.

Hey everyone! I recently got a new PC and I'm trying to figure out the best setup for both gaming and running a Minecraft server for me and my friends. Here’s what I have:

• 64GB DDR4 3200MHz RAM
• Ryzen 7 5700X or 5600X (not entirely sure which one
• RX 5600 or RX 6600 GPU (also somewhere in that performance range)

My main use for the system will be gaming on Windows 11, but I also want to run Ubuntu for hosting a Minecraft server. I’m torn between two options:

1. Dual-booting: Partitioning the drive and installing both Windows 11 and Ubuntu, so I can choose which one to boot into based on what I need.
2. VM Setup: Running Ubuntu in a Virtual Machine while staying in Windows 11 for everything else.

I have the hardware to support it, but I’m not sure which would give me the best balance of performance and convenience. I’d appreciate any insights on which approach would be better for running a Minecraft server in Ubuntu while still keeping gaming performance top-notch on Windows.

Thanks in advance!

Hey,

I'm trying to figure out modding on Linux. To be fair, I installed Linux yesterday, so maybe this question is pretty basic...

Most games I've tested so far seem to work fine on Steam with Proton. Some older Windows games even perform better than on Win11.

I want to try modding my games now and begin with a Unity-based game called Pathfinder: Wrath of the Rogues.

I found this short guide.

With Unity games, modding works as follows: there's a Unity Mod Manager (UMM) you need to install somewhere on your system. You specify which game you want to mod (there's a supported games list), and you can provide it with the path to that game (or let UMM find it automatically).

UMM then performs DLL injection into the game, allowing you to drag and drop zip mods into its interface window to install them for the game you chose.

The method I found in the guide involves placing the UMM executable into the same Proton prefix as my game and adding the executable of the game to Steam as a Non-Steam game. Then, after running it(UMM as a non steam game), I can add the mods I want before starting the game.

My question is: Can I use Lutris instead of adding UMM as a separate non-Steam game?

I mean, can I set up UMM in Lutris and specify that it runs in the same Proton prefix as the Steam-installed Pathfinder game?

Perhaps my issue is just a psychological barrier of not wanting to bloat my steam interface with a bunch of non steam moding tools.

Becuse there is another modding tool for Pathfinder, it's called Mod Finder https://github.com/Pathfinder-WOTR-Modding-Community/ModFinder

Mod Finder is another tool for modding Pathfinder and works by accompanying UMM to help manage mods better. So if I want to use it, I'll need to add another Non steam game to steam.

Maybe there's a more efficient method that could be explored instead of cluttering my Steam library with multiple modding tools ?

I think in Lutrix this somehow can be managed better maybe?

So I got pretty lucky and I managed to grab a 9070XT, my only problem is here im having quite a bit of trouble getting it working right. I was using mint 22.1 but it doesn't seem to support it yet, I tried updating the kernel and a bunch of other doodads and I could not get it to recognize the 9070XT, so then I tried switching over to nobara and for some reason I just can't get anything running right, I can boot into marvel rivals but the moment I start a match the game will keep playing in the background but it freezes on the hero screen leading me to believe it's a driver issue.

Kind of an annoying issue I'm having where all steam games have 2 or 3 audio streams, and thus are listed multiple times in volume control panels. When I go to adjust per application volume, I have to just randomly try one until I get the one that is right. Google was useless. I have tried different proton versions, SDL_AUDIODRIVER, and WAVONLY env variables.

Hey everyone, I made the swap to Linux mint 22 recently and so far for every other game I have been having no issues other than marvel rivals.

When I first install the game I can usually get about 1-2 matches in before it crashes and I get the same error either when attempting to start the game or right as I am about to start a match.

I am currently using the launch options: SteamDeck=1 %command% -PSOCompileMode=1

and using GE-Proton9-27

I have tried installing it into my main harddrive instead but got the same results.

Just want to see if anyone else has had this issue, or knows what I am doing wrong

Ludusavi: v0.29.1 released https://playingtux.com/articles/ludusavi-v0291-released?lang=en #Linux #Gaming #LinuxGaming

Hi everyone, a few months ago I bought a GameSir G7 SE Wired, a good controller that I used on both Windows and Linux, but for a couple of weeks on my Arch Linux laptop I'm having a little problem, sometimes when I unplug it and plug it back in the controller is recognized as a dinput controller and every button doesn't work, the only way to make it work is to reset it manually via usbreset, I can't figure out if it's a bug in the controller that doesn't reset/turn on correctly or a bug in Arch Linux in the new kernel, because for a few months it worked without problems (I tried on Fedora 6.14 and it works without problems), I've already tried using different drivers from xpad like xone (the updated fork) but the problem persists, does anyone have any suggestions? if you have this controller or others from gamesir could you let me know if you're having problems? Thanks.

I'm trying to play ghost of tsushima on linux (mint) and the trackpad is being used as a mouse so every time i try to use the wind or gesture i end up spinning the camera wildly. I've tried deactivating it in steam, holding a variety of buttons down to turn it off, and nothing is working. i read somewhere about drivers needing to be updated, but i can't find any linux drivers, just some 5 year old threads about someone needing to update linux instead.

I’m hitting rendering issues with Celeste on Debian 12 with KDE Plasma 5.27.5 and Intel Iris Xe Graphics. The native Linux version has a severe lighting glitch (attachment 1). This wasn’t an issue on my old laptop running Gnome. Forcing Proton Hotfix in Steam improved things significantly, reducing it to a minor lighting glitch (attachment 2).

I tried both switching between Wayland and Plasma (X11) sessions at the SDDM login screen and tweaking KDE's compositor settings (enabled "Allow applications to block compositing," set OpenGL 3.1, disabled VSync) but neither brought improvement.

I suspect a Mesa driver issue or game-specific rendering quirk. Planning to try Mesa backports next, but I’d love to hear your suggestions.

The game in the picture is just an example of a problem that appears to be Steam-wide on my rig.

System: Archlinux (latest updates/stock kernel), KDE-wayland, AMD hardware. 64 gig Ram (Latest non-beta Steam client, auto-updated to current by Steam.)

For the last little while (couple of months), the UI's app indicator has been silently crashing when attempting to use it to launch games. When I launch within the UI, everything works.

The app indicator LOOKS like a good launch as the UI shows the game starting up from the app indicator launch...Journalctl just shows the game quitting. Logs aren't showing much either.

This isn't a showstopper or anything, but it is annoying. :-)

It almost seems like the app indicator 'launch' isn't using the same launch commands/parameters that the UI is using. That makes zippo sense to me, but hey.
