Guide to running Resident Evil 1 GOG on linux without mods

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 13:10

There are many guides on the internet, but some of them are outdated due to the requirement of dgvoodoo2, which disappeared from lutris or require the installation of mods. After searching for information, I want to summarize it here, for people who want to play classic resident evil with video and without installing mods. The game was launched on fedora kde 43 through heroic launcher.

  1. After installation, you need to go to the game settings in heroic and add this to the launch parameters: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw,dinput". Without ddraw, the game may not start, giving the error "Some of the data have been damaged. Please run Setup again.", and diunput for the gamepad to work properly.
  2. The game will start, but there will be no video and here the difficult part begins. There are only two ways to make video work in RE1 on linux: the classicRebirth mod, which processes videos and changes their format, or adding the mcavi32.dll file to the game folder and adding mciavi32=n,b to the launch parameters. In general, it should be like this: WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw,dinput,mciavi32=n,b"

The only problem is that this dll can only be obtained in Windows, so you will have to download it from the Internet. Personally, I downloaded it from this site https://www.dllme.com/dll/files/mciavi32/versions. Please note that the file architecture must be x86 - 32 Bit, not x64 - 64 Bit

After adding mcavi32.dll to the game folder along with changing the launch parameters, the game starts and all videos are played without installing all kinds of mods, etc.

I hope this helps someone

Overwatch stuttering - Launching through battle.net launcher via steam

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 12:26

I am using linux mint, I launch overwatch via steam using this method (Option 2)

https://www.gamingonlinux.com/guides/view/how-to-install-battle-net-on-linux-steamos-and-steam-deck-for-world-of-warcraft-and-starcraft/#steam

The game stutters, for what seems like a long time until it caches everything into ram/gpu ? Even then it still stutters randomly at times.

Not sure whats going on, but any ideas on how to resolve this? Tried switching to DX 12 and it didn't make any difference.

Using a Nvidia 4060, have 32GB ram, i7-10700KF

Audio issue on pipewire

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 11:56

i have an issue on pipewire. it could also be easy effects causing it. on certain window switches a popping sound plays and it also happens some times when gaming but kinda rare and only on cachyos. kubuntu is worse with having full audio glitches where a voice of someone starts clutching and sounding robotic when it shouldn't. Should I switch to windows, fix it somehow or just not care about it?

I made another post and one guy gave me some commands I didn't find a way to use

CS2 Performance feels off

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 11:33

Hi, i am running CS2 on Endeavour for some time now. I get really nice FPS on my rig (250-340fps), which is more than on Windows.

But somehow it still feels off, and stuttery. I notice this especially when spraying. It just doesn't feel right, i cant control it properly. On Windows it feels better straight away. I am fairly high-elo and got 5k hours in the game on Windows. This is definitely no placebo.

I am using an RTX3070 and AMD Ryzen 9 5950X 16-Core with 64GB RAM.

My launch command is LD_PRELOAD="" gamemoderun %command%

I am using the proprietary gpu drivers with "Preferred Mode: Prefer Maximum Performance".

Currently on GNOME, but KDE resulted in the same off-feeling.

Anybody experiencing similar issues? Thanks in advance!

video buffer overflow

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 11:30

I have only one problem with Mortal Kombat 1: when I run it through Proton or ProtonGE, my buffer quickly overflows and performance drops. On Windows, 5.2-5.7 GB max. On Linux, 6+ GB, no matter what settings I use. I've tried different distributions and different driver versions. HP Victus RTX 3050 6GB What can I do to prevent the video buffer from overflowing?

Cyberpunk 2077 highest graphics setting with ReShade works surprisingly well on CachyOS

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 11:23

Here's a screenshot of my game, albeit Dreampunk shaders dropped my fps down to around 60 fps, I think the improvements of the graphics is worth it.

My spec:

proton-CachyOS-10.0 AMD R7 5800X RAM: 32 GB RTX 4070 Ti SUPER Display: 5120x1440

Frame gen:
for DLSS frame gen to work properly in linux I had to grab the latest release zip from: https://github.com/NVIDIA-RTX/Streamline/releases And then copy all the .dll files from the bin/x64 folder into steamapps/common/Cyberpunk 2077/bin/x64 and overwrite the existing ones.

ReShade:
The dxgi.dll packaged in dreampunk crashes the game, so I installed reshade with https://github.com/asafelobotomy/reshade-steam and add the WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3dcompiler_47=n;dxgi=n,b" launch option suggested by it's installer.

after enabling HDR, this is my final launch option

WINEDLLOVERRIDES="d3dcompiler_47=n;dxgi=n,b" PROTON_DLSS_FG_OVERRIDE=1 DXVK_NVAPI_DRS_NGX_DLSS_SR_OVERRIDE_RENDER_PRESET_SELECTION=RENDER_PRESET_K PROTON_LOCAL_SHADER_CACHE=1 PROTON_USE_NTSYNC=1 PROTON_DLSS_UPGRADE=1 PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 game-performance dlss-swapper %command% --intro-skip -skipStartScreen --launcher-skip submitted by /u/arslan2012

CS2 on arm linux

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 11:00

Is CS2 supported on arm linux? I know it's supported on linux, but I was wondering specifically about ARM. If so, wouldn't that mean that CS2 could natively run on ARM Macs through Asahi Linux?

Question about Steam and switching distros

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 10:33

Ive been thinking about switching from Mint to CachyOS, but Im worried that I have to reinstall all my games since my internet isn't that fast.

Most of my steam games are on a seperate hard drive, so would it be possible in a way for steam to automatically detect them without having to reinstall them?

DXVK-Sarek v1.12.0 "Late Anniversary" Released

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 10:00

Hi there!

Happy to share a new release of my unofficial continuation of the DXVK 1.10.x branch, designed to assist users still relying on the 1.10.x releases by backporting per game configurations, fixes and more: DXVK-Sarek "Late Anniversary".

This release brings two big additions: dyasync (Dynamic Asynchronous Pipeline Compilation, replacing the old async patch, now enabled by default on a single unified build) and the port of d7vk, which adds D3D3, 5, 6 and 7 support to DXVK-Sarek. On top of that, a ton of upstream fixes and backports have been integrated, so more games should work out of the box, and if they don't, feel free to create an issue on the repo.

Heads up: Proton-Sarek is discontinued with this release. Proton-CachyOS is now the officially supported way to use DXVK-Sarek with Proton (full reasoning is in the release notes).

More info can be found on the release page. Thanks for reading, share this with people that are stuck on the 1.10.x branch, hope this helps and GLHF!

SimCity 2000 16-bit Installer via Wine!

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 08:42

I'm excited for some SimCity 2000!

This is the SC2k installer running on Wine on my Linux Mint laptop. It's from the Windows 95 version of the game, which uses a 32-bit exe for the game but a 16-bit exe for the installer.

It's a 16-bit app running in a 32-bit Wine process proxied through Wine's upgraded 64-bit WoW64 stack.

It can't be installed with the installer on Windows anymore because 64-bit Windows has removed all 16-bit support and Windows 11 is 64-bit only!

The game also runs great minus the MIDI music, still working on that in my prefix.

I tracked 50 Steam Deck games and compared Valve's Verified/Playable badges to ProtonDB ratings — they don't always agree

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 16. April 2026 - 08:20

Hi r/linux_gaming,

I maintain a handheld gaming database that pulls together Steam compatibility data, ProtonDB reports, and current deals. Ran a comparison tonight and noticed some interesting patterns between Valve's Deck Verified program and ProtonDB community ratings.

Games where both agree (Verified + Proton Platinum):

Game Completion Time Current Price Balatro 7.5h Full price Celeste 8.3h Full price Stray 5.1h Full price Outer Wilds 17.1h Full price Hi-Fi RUSH 11.2h Full price Dead Cells 14.1h Full price DREDGE 9.7h Full price Pizza Tower 6.3h Full price Castle Crashers 7.2h Full price Hotline Miami 5.2h Full price

Games where they disagree — Playable on Deck but Proton Platinum:

Game Completion Time Why "Playable"? Schedule I 16.3h UI elements benefit from mouse LISA: The Painful 10.8h Virtual keyboard needed Dead Space 2 9.1h Control remapping recommended PARANORMASIGHT 12.1h Interface quirks

And the reverse — Verified on Deck but no Proton Platinum:

Game Deck Status Proton Price Devil May Cry 5 Verified Unrated $7.49 (75% off) Ghost Trick Verified Unrated $9.89 (67% off) Wall World Verified Unrated $1.04 (85% off) DmC: Devil May Cry Verified Unrated $7.49 (75% off)

The takeaway: Proton Platinum + Deck Playable is usually a safe buy — the Playable caveat tends to be minor. But a game with no ProtonDB data can still be Deck Verified if Valve tested it directly.

Source: DeckAlly (https://deckally.com/browse) — shows both ratings side-by-side with current deals. Open to questions about the data.
