so i have been tirelessly trying to find the source of the freeze frame dropping for monster hunter wilds and i read a lot of direct storage and rooting through protondb but when googling i saw that direct storage isn't REALLY supported in linux. they say that valves proton has rudimentary things that mimic direct storage. so is that the issue? direct storage isn't working so when it tries to load new data its just the nvme struggling?

For some reason, when I run any of my games with gamescope using the steam launch options, my games immediately close after clicking play. I'll click play and the button will go from stop to play within like 3 seconds. I am on PikaOS (based on Debian) if that has anything to do with anything.

After figuring out the basics, I find it easier to use than MO2 on windows. I do wish there was a little more info added to the tutorial, but it really is the answer to my linux prayers. So far I have only tired limo with skyrim but if you're like me and that's all you really care about don't let your modding addiction stop you from using linux. That is all.

I've heard that кockstar just disables online if the user's platform is not Windows. And that there's a linux build of rocket league, but online doesn't work there either. Are there any ways to play these games on linux?

Hi guys. Couple of guestions about Baazite and DCS.

TL;DR:
- What am I missing - Why didn't it start the DCS game?

- Is there a better way to do this than Bazzite / Proton?

Background info:

Not a Linux power user by any means but have been using it for several years now. First time trying to play games on it.

Read that Bazzite is one of the better distros for gaming. Got it installed. Came with Steam.

After watching Growling Sidewinder's channel on YT I wanted to give DCS a shot. Has also been several years since the last time I was on Steam.

Bazzite installed. DCS installed through Steam. Also used the library in Steam to download/install Proton for the interpretation while on linux.

Afterward, I hit launch in the DCS screen in Steam and all it did was change from "launch" to "launching"

I let it sit for almost 20 minutes and it didn't go passed that.

My hardware:

Lenovo IdeaPad Flex 5i
- CPU: Core i7-1255u / 12-core / L3 12mb
- RAM: 8 GB / 33 MHz
GPU per lspci:
- VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Alder Lake-UP3 GT2 [Iris Xe Graphics] (rev 0c)

Hi everyone,

I'm a developer who primarily works on Windows, but I’ve recently built a Linux version of my demo and I need some help testing it. Unfortunately, I don’t have a Linux setup handy right now to verify if everything is functioning correctly.

If anyone in this awesome community could take a moment to check whether the Linux build of my demo starts and runs properly, I’d be incredibly grateful. The Demo is not public yet, so if you DM me, I can share an exclusive key with you as a thank you :)

If not you can also just test the playtest, that would be helpful too!: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3441420/Dustbound/

Thanks in advance for your help, and sorry again if this isn't the appropriate place to post!

I just found out this application to configure gaming mouses and it works perfectly for me.

I have a logitech and I was able to control the Leds, the buttons and the dpi

Shout-out to the creator!!

For Mint it's avaiable from the software manager

Good evening (GMT+2) linux_gaming :)

Problem :(

I've run into what seems like a shader issue on Ghost of Tsushima, as can be seen on attached pictures

If I turn DoF off everything a little far becomes very pixelated, changing the "volumetric fog" quality seems to pretty reliably control the size of the pixels (less is bigger pixels). Turning DoF on just blurs the pixels and creates a mess that makes my screen look like it's 16 colors (as you can see on the "menu" screenshot)

Also, a lot of tiny artifacts appear when things move around the screen (see "gameplay" screenshot), and the map is... Not supposed to look like that I guess ("map" screenshot)

I thought it was a driver problem at first but other games work perfectly, and I couldn't really find people having the same problem on nvidia, only on red gpus like here

My setup (laptop)

• OS: Arch Linux x86_64
• Kernel: Linux 6.14.1-arch1-1
• CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5800H (16) @ 4.46 GHz
• GPU 1: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Mobile / Max-Q [Discrete]
• Nvidia Driver: Official DRM version 570.133.07
• GPU 2: AMD Radeon Vega Series / Radeon Vega Mobile Series [Integrated]
• AMD Driver: Mesa default
• Memory: 32 GiB
• Swap: 32 GiB
• WM: sway*
• DE: None**

*: Tested with i3 too (so that's not a wayland thing again)

**: Tested with plasma too

I'm starting the game I own on steam from lutris, I also tried running it from steam directly.

My attempts

• I tried with i3 and plasma (x11 and wayland) in addition to my usual sway
• I updated everything and rebooted (around a million times)
• I tried locking my gpu and memory clock to the max (force P0 state)
• I tried everything I could find on similar issues (toggle vsync, dlss, AA, ...)
• I didn't try to re-install the drivers yet because I don't want to break everything else and cry in my shower again
• I tried with the same hardware on windows, no problems besides throwing up and asking Linus to forgive me

So...

Help would be greatly appreciated, I can provide all the logs needed but I don't really know where to start, also if someone else has the same problem, we could maybe confirm a driver version problem :)

Hello, I'm currently really into deadlock and was wanting to upgrade my mouse from a razer deathadder v2 pro to something with more side buttons, but I've heard that a lot of mice with multiple buttons don't work on Linux. I've read a few other similar posts and a lot of them recommend moba mice with 9+ side buttons and that's honestly way too many for me. I need something that is wireless (no wired suggestions pls) with 4-6 side buttons that will work well in an FPS game. Thanks everybody!

Hello, I'm Antti and I have been making KAUNA as solo developer for couple of years. It is retro style FPS game (Boomer Shooter) with Finnish twist. It is made on Linux using open source free tools such as Godot Engine and Blender.

Game starts at Finnish cottage when portal to Underworld opens and demonic forces are ruining your evening. You must then enter the Underworld and save your cottage!

I recently opened Steam page for KAUNA so if you are interested it can be wishlisted! There are also playable version on Itch.

Hi!

I have a problem that my linux and G502 mouse doesn't work perfectly in linux. When I try to press the side buttons I get a touchpad on/off notification on the bottom of the screen, even if I have disabled my touchpad completely in mouse settings.

Also I've tried switching the buttons in piper but the buttons seems not to be working. I have installed ratbagd, and I am using linux mint! I've been googling this, but seems like that touchpad thing isn't that common. I just want that notification off, and to be able to use the side buttons! I've tried to change the buttons to numpad keys but it doesn't work too.

I am a complete linux noob, I've been using it for like 2 weeks, but I hope you understand! Thanks in advance! :)

Hi All,

I posted the other day about best distro for steam, streaming, and Warcraft. A lot of people suggested Bazzite but I pivoted at the end and went with Pop/CinnamonDE. So far I have been able to do all of the above without issue. I was disappointed to discover a game I was looking forward to was Windows only.

I also found out the hard way that the keyboard I purchased (Aula) was not compatible.

I had some terrible lag with keyboard and mouse on Pop_OS itself but it has mostly resolved since changing over to Cinnamon per a suggestion I found in an old thread.

It is definitely a learning curve coming from Windows but I'm working on a tech. degree so I need to force myself to be well-rounded.

WoW runs flawlessly, but I have not tried to mod yet.

Hope this post helps someone down the road. Thanks again!
