If you’ve bought GTAV Online on steam, played on Linux, or even just modded GTAV Online on any OS, write rockstar a negative review. Let them know they screwed up choosing to not support us and modders alike.

Hi guy..

Running garuda, Kernel xanmod x64v3 6.11, up to date,

7800x3d
64gb 6000 30
7900 xtx no OC
32" 3440x1440

I've seen interesting behaviours with the card;

Scenario A: Cyberpunk. Benchmark went up from 105 to 109, reaching windows speed parity.
Scenario B: Hogwarst legacy, main area FPS still 100(all ultra no fsr) peak FPS... 175. When i saw that value i double checked because it was so far out what i've seen the title doing so far...but it seems something in this kernel is doing something
Scenario C: forbidden West. Peak FPS increased to 145 from 100-110fps top same as legacy, expecially in some cutscenes(that are usually harder to render and usually slow down)

Investigating, it seems that in situations that are more conservative in rendering the gpu is free to run faster(maybe culling is better? i don't know), showing increases going from 0 to 70% in speed depending on the scenario being rendered in my quick testing... can you guys corroborate what i'm seeing?

Hi,

So I'm running a clean install of tumbleweed with kde plasma 6 with wayland session. Lutris is the program that I used on my previous install (x11), but now I'm running into problems when launching doom eternal with various proton runners and gamescope toggled on. I've tried disabling lutris runtime, but game runs with very high cpu and poor fps. Only when wine-ge-8-26-x86_64 is selected things run fine> high fps+hdr. Here's an overview of installed stuff:

-fully updated system including default kernel, mesa, amdgpu etc.

-flatpak> runtime/org.freedesktop.Platform.VulkanLayer.gamescope/x86_64/23.08

-flatpak> lutris

-flatpak> flatseal

-flatpak> protonup-qt

-vkd3d-proton-2.13

-vkd3d-2.12

-dxvk v2.4

-wine-tkg-valve-exp-bleeding-9.0.120456.20240914-327-x86_64.pkg

-wine-ge-8-26-x86_64

-lutris-GE-Proton8-26-x86_64

-lutris-7.2-2-x86_64

-GE-proton

Am I missing something or is this only possible through steam launcher with custom launch options?

Thank you!

Title.

I'm starting to get sick of MS and what is becoming of win 11. On top of all the AI garbage incoming. Interested in Linux for a long time mainly due to all the customization options. But I pretty much only do gaming on my PC so always was putting away switching.

Now since my main games have either native linux support or great wine/proton support ((ff14, factorio... I don't really play any AAA)) I want to give a linux more proper try.

Currently using A770 but changing for rx 7800 xt next week.

Gonna use Fedora since I'm not a fan of debian based distros and ideally I would like rolling release. But arch is bit to much for noob like me and OpenSUSE seems to not work great with my hardware. Fedora seems like decent middle ground.

Any thoughts? Does gaming on linux require a lot of tinkering or it is pain free. similar to windows after initial setup?

Just got an official response from Rockstar support about GTAO now working on Linux

We certainly understand that you are unable to login to GTA online through Steam Deck after the update.

We would like to inform you that the primary goal of incorporating BattlEye into GTA Online is to enhance the overall gaming experience by actively scanning for cheats and exploits, and preventing players with cheats and mods from entering online. The Steam Deck players will not be able to join GTA Online but should be able to launch single-player without any issues. We appreciate your understanding in this matter.

If you have any further questions or concerns, please feel free to let us know. We are here to assist you.

Since I got this reply just 5 minutes after posting, R* is well aware of the issue, if not intentionally. The response seems to be previously prepared and they also IP banned me from their support website.

I'm trying to run Steam games on my ARM64 device (NVIDIA Jetson AGX Xavier) using a combination of Box64, Wine, and DXVK. I've already set up Wine and DXVK on my system and have Box64/Box86 installed to handle the 64-bit/32-bit x86 emulation. Now, I'm interested in seeing how all these components work together to improve the gaming experience. I've made some optimizations to Box64 and DXVK myself and would like to see how these tweaks compare in terms of performance and compatibility when running games on Steam. However, I'm a bit confused about how to integrate everything smoothly. It seems like Box64/Box86 is primarily used to launch Steam itself, and then Steam has its own Proton layer that can be enabled for games. I'm not quite sure how to leverage Box64, Wine, and DXVK simultaneously to fully optimize the gaming experience.

Surprisingly, Rockstar have now added BattlEye anti-cheat to Grand Theft Auto V, and sadly it seems they have not enabled the support for Linux desktop and Steam Deck with Valve's Proton.

Though this isn't a Linux gaming specific post, I just wanted to say my appreciation for Linux.

I gave a gaming PC running Windows 11 to my sister (because she's been gaming on an ancient 4th gen laptop with a 970m, and the PC is an 8700k with an RTX 2080 among other reasons) and built a PC using a Xeon 2670 and a GTX 1080 booting off a PCIE NVME card. Installed and setup Ubuntu with Plasma. The mobo on that PC died so I threw the NVME drive into an old laptop (9300H/1050 3gb) and it booted and just started working. The wifi, the GPU, the battery even.

There's a couple things that don't work, mainly it doesn't seem to recognize the lid is closed, and tapping the touchpad doesn't work (have to press it till it clicks). But's very impressive that it did almost nothing during the boot unlike Windows that takes 20 minutes and several reboots even on an NVME to boot up on new hardware, and it Just Works. I was honestly expecting a kernal panic or something.

I have ordered a Radeon RX 7800XT and I was planning on switching to Linux once I've installed it. I have been using Debian on my laptop for years and I have a Steam Deck, so I am used to using Linux and Proton.

I was planning on using Fedora or Bazzite as they have good driver support, although I am leaning towards Fedora as it seems to have less preinstalled software (please correct me if I'm wrong though).

I would also like to know how well features like HDR and variable refresh rate are supported, I'm going to use the plasma desktop environment.

The other thing I'm interested in is controlling my system fans and undervolting my GPU. On Windows I used Rem0o's fan control, are there any Linux alternatives to this?

Finally are there any other useful software or tools for gaming on Linux?

I use Linux as a daily driver for around 2 years. Before I was dual-booting it for I guess 3-4 years. I have no complains on how games are working. I have every application I would want working. If something is Windows only most of the time I'm able to run it with wine.

However there is one thing that makes me want to go back to windows. It's AMD Fluid Motion Frames and Lossless scaling FG. It's really cool you can add frame gen to almost every game with those tools. And you can't do it on Linux. Only if game has built in FG support you can use it.

I wonder if it's worth it.
