I have a game that needs to be launched from its launcher. The thing is that the launcher needs to be fired up by proton 8.0-5 but the game .exe itself needs to be on proton 5.13-6 to fix a graphical bug.

How one can make it so the launcher runs on proton 8 and the game .exe launched by the launcher runs on proton 5?

Video of the Issue here

As you can see, when using my native resolution (1920x1080) there is a very noticeable delay when hovering over things in the menu. This happens with menus in game too.

I have tested it out with multiple proton versions, and i am using no launch options.

GPU is a GTX 1660 Super.

I have no issues with any other games in my library.

Any help would be greatly appreciated :D

Hey, I've noticed that on some games having Discord and the appindicator extension active at the same time will make games run terrible.

On Gnome.

Just a PSA in the case that someone has bad performance on some games.

I'm trying to play an old game called The Neverhood through wine. So far it runs just fine, but the game itself has no resolution controls.

If I run with default settings it runs in fullscreen but only fills the very top left.

I found if I run wine explorer /desktop=800x600, then run the game from there it runs in a window, but it's super tiny still.

If I change my display resolution to 640x480, it fills the screen but it's stretched.

The virtual desktop and DPI settings in the graphics tab in wine config don't work.

How can I get this running at a reasonable size without being stretched? I don't mind if its fullscreen or in a window.

I have google searched and still cannot find an easy answer. How can I tell what version of the GPU driver I am using? I'm running Bazzite, and just want to see if I'm using the most current driver for my RX 6900XT.

Hello everyone,

I just wanted to know if anyone could weigh in on that "issue"...

I recently installed Windows 11 on a fairly low-end miniPC (16GB of RAM, some integrated Ryzen "Renoir"/"Julienne" integrated CPU...) and when I launch Day of Defeat "Classic" (not the Source one), I get HORRENDOUS game issues :

• I can't crouch and shoot at the same time or strafe and shoot, WHEREAS on any Linux distro (be it Ubuntu, Arch/EndeavourOS, Fedora...) it works flawlessly - as if Windows was ghosting every keypresses... LOL

• I get terrible choppy frame drop on almost every sharp turn I make (even when disabling vsync in settings), WHEREAS, again, every moves is smooth and flawless on Linux...

So, what warrants such awful performance on Windows ?

Could it be that GoldSrc games are as efficiently optimised on Linux as Source ones are ?

Anyway TL;DR : Windows sucks (nothing new here...)

Edit:spelling

im on 5600gt now without dgpu and im wondering is there something should i do before and after adding 6600? im using cachyos hyprland. i just got a budget and i want to play some pretty demanding games like the finals. i enjoy it even in 720p low hahaha so blurry like painting. im using 1080p 100hz monitor btw. if someone using 6600 and playing the finals, let me know what is the performance youre getting. thanks

the current game I'm playing is Hearthstone which runs great via Lutris, but I miss my deck tracker. Is it possible to get those working? I used to use Overwolf but any tracker would do.

Similar for Path of Exile, i'm not playing right now but there was millions of third party apps requried to play.

Does anyone have any experience to share in this department? I'm fairly new to Linux running Fedora 41 with a 4070ti super

Hi, I've been playing on linux for a few years now, on Nobara. I recently transitioned to Arch. Using a i7 13700kf + 2080 Ti + 64GB RAM

I noticed on two specific games, and in specific situations, that I get VERY poor performance (20ish fps): the reason is that the CPU usage gets at almost 100% (every performance core/thread is at ~95% usage), so the GPU has no time to calculate the frames. In these situations, GPU usage drops from full 100% to nearly ~25%

The specific situations are:
- On Satisfactory, when loading an end-game map, all the factory updates takes forever (if I disable power in my factory, I get 120 fps back)

- In Void Crew, in combat situation, when looking at a lot of enemies (when the enemies disappear, the fps are back)

I think that the issues are related, since the symptom is the same, and I get very similar sound stutter too when the performance drops.

I checked both cases on windows, everything runs smoothly (GPU at 100% usage). Performance mode is on, I run the games with gamemode, I tested serveral versions of Proton and ProtonGE. Am I missing some configuration or something ?

"This game requires manual configuration of graphics settings to perform well on Steam Deck."

This should be done for almost 50% of the incompatible games

It's been a strange few days for Palworld on Steam Deck. Originally it was rated Steam Deck Playable, then after the major Feybreak update Valve set it as Steam Deck Unsupported and now it's back to Steam Deck Playable again.

I just released a little BASH script that handles the conversion of Clips made with Steam Recording to mp4 files for you. It's completely opensource and you can download it from GitHub right now!

ReadMe from Github:

SteamClip - Steam Recording to MP4 Converter

SteamClip is a simple BASH script that allows you to convert Steam game recordings into .mp4 files.

WHY

Steam uses m4s file format for video and audio that then are layered in a single video output.

Exporting to mp4 from Steam itself is possible, but that leads to heavy visual artifacts in my testing.

Those artifacts are not present when using ffmpeg to convert m4s files to mp4 (or other formats)

I made this script just to be able to save non glitchy .mp4 clips and share them to my phone via Kde connect, especially clips longer than 1 minute

FEATURES

• Converts Steam recordings to MP4 format.
• Easy to use, with a simple user interface.
• Works by selecting the clip via an interactive prompt.
• Saves the final converted file to the Desktop.

INSTALLATION

• Download or clone the repository.
• Place the SteamClip.sh file in any directory.
• Grant execution permissions:

chmod +x SteamClip.sh

USAGE

• Run the script by double clicking it If you have multiple Steam profiles, the script will ask you to select the correct SteamID.
• After selecting the SteamID, an available list of clips will be shown.
• Select a clip and an interactive preview will be displayed.
• Confirm and the script will convert the clip to an MP4 file. The converted file will be saved to your Desktop.

REQUIREMENTS

• Linux (Tested on SteamOS and Bazzite).
• ffmpeg (Make sure it is installed):
• sudo apt install ffmpeg # On Ubuntu/Debian
• sudo dnf install ffmpeg # On Fedora
• sudo pacman -S ffmpeg # On Arch
• kdialog for dialog boxes (usually pre-installed on KDE environments, but can be installed if necessary):
• sudo apt install kdialog # On Ubuntu/Debian
• sudo dnf install kdialog # On Fedora
• sudo pacman -S kdialog #On Arch
• Steam installed with recordings in the default folder ~/.local/share/Steam/userdata//gamerecordings/clips.

Before anyone says "Just use r/linux4noobs; I already tried that, lazy moderators just keep letting the bot delete my posts with no explanation so this is my next step please help!"

I just made the jump to linux mint and I need some bugs in the system worked out and I'm not sure what to do:

1. Bluetooth devices do not auto connect even though they are on and paired, its a little annoying to have to do that manually everytime
2. Keyboard not connected on startup. For some reason the system doesnt recognize I have any keyboard plugged in and it has no power going to it until i unplug it and plug it back in.
3. Can access external hard drive: I began restoring my game backups now today I cant even use my external hard drive and I keep getting the error: "Failed to mount drive. Error mounting /dev/sda2/media/null-user/ Drive: wrong fs type, bad option, bad superblock, on /dev/sda2, missing codepage or helper program or other error"
4. Inconsistent shortkey functionality: for some reason I can only do things like copy-paste through the hot key commands instead of mouse like 50% of the time
