Can't get Halo 2 to work anymore

This error shows up any time I try to launch Halo 2 using Lutris. I install it directly from Lutris, under Project Cartographer which also comes with the dependencies needed for it to work. Besides installing Flatpak chromium literally no other change was made to the os itself. All other games work fine, it's just this that has issues. It worked previously and idk wtf am I suppost to do

As of today, neofetch has been officially removed from the Arch repos. It is about time, it has been deprecated for years.

In memorandom, my final neofetch, before removing the package and moving onto fastfetch

good night sweet prince. may fastfetch handle Liberation Mono as well as you did

EA app fix connect

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 May 2025 - 4:28pm

Been flipping through a lot of the guides on this site, of varying degrees of age. There were Wine prefixes, protontricks + Steam, and Lutris. I've tried all sorts of things, including Fuck off EA App, but Origin servers were shut down not too long ago. Even tried ZL_Origin. A pirated version for EA games. But that didn't work either. In all Origin and EA client did not go connect for authorization.

And then I decided to install Lutris, I choose dependencies and there ironically under one of the dependencies directly mentions the list of launchers.

lib32-gnutls

I installed all the dependencies without looking, and EA app started and installed from the first time, without Lutris itself. The only thing that glitched in the launcher was the video, and then there were bugs in BF4 as well. Then I saw that MangoHud displayed not DXVK but some Damavand, I went to winetricks, replaced it with DXVK and the launcher became with normal video. And in BF4 texture bugs disappeared.Been flipping through a lot of the guides on this site, of varying degrees of age. There were Wine prefixes, protontricks + Steam, and Lutris.

How to run OBSE dll injector to mod Oblivion Remastered?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 May 2025 - 3:23pm

Hi, I managed to run Vortex thorugh Steam Tinker Launch but I want to mod Oblivion Remastered and instead of using an EXE you rename as the game EXE, it uses an external EXE that injects DLL into the game's EXE. The problem is when I do this, I can't launch it through proton the traditional way. Did anyone manage to work around this issue and get OBSE working on Linux? I'm on CachyOS with KDE Plasma if that matters.

Fallout New Vegas - Do we still need to apply patches and optimization and bugs-fixing mods in Linux these days?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 May 2025 - 3:07pm

I follow Viva New Vegas guide and add some performance and bugs-fixing mods, like JIP LN NVSE Plugin, NVTF - New Vegas Tick Fix, lStewieAl's Tweaks and Engine Fixes... And I don't add any texture or content mods. Only optimization mods are added.

But to my surprise, fps actually drop about 20% after these optimizations.

So do we still need these patches and optimization mods in Linux?

Linux Mint/Ubuntu Drivers

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 May 2025 - 3:05pm

I tried linux 1 year ago and it was in a rough shape, nothing worked in terms of gaming.

I change the PC and now both Mint and Ubuntu seems to not have Wifi drivers, Lan drivers, Sound driver, it looks like it does not have a proper chipset driver because they run really bad.

I have a 9950x3d and a motherboard MSI x870 gaming plus. Where i can find drivers for this components? On the official MSI website or AMD does not exist Linux drivers.

I can't get the refresh rate my monitor supports.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 May 2025 - 2:50pm

First of all I don't know if that is the correct place to look for help, I couldn't find any other subreddit to ask. If it's not, I am sorry.

I am using CachyOS on Hyprland but since I haven't found the solution on CachyOS Forum/Wiki I decided to give it a try here.

The issue is, my monitor supports 165hz, it works flawless on Windows, it's the same output, it's the same cable, same monitor, everything is the same, but when I try it in any linux distribution I can't get work 165hz, back in the day like a year ago on X11 I also couldn't use 165hz, when I try to change my monitor's hz on hyprland.conf, my monitor turns black and nothing else happens, anything else than 165hz is works, 120, 100, 75, 60 every one of them works normally. My laptop is HP Victus 16, CPU is Ryzen 5 7640HS, GPU is RTX 4050, I've tried to choose discerete/hybrid options in bios, didn't change anything.

My first thought was it's the decimals on refresh rate that makes this issue and I decided to edit the edid, but with outputs like gtf, cvt doesn't also work for me, I've manually edit the edid file and somehow got work 140hz(I don't use 140hz edid file currently, so wlr-randr output is the default one)

My monitor is on HDMI output, the wlr-randr output is:

I'll give it a try on thunderbolt port after like a month but it's just annoying that I can't use my monitors supported refresh rate on Linux.

Fedora 42 KDE Plasma: Marvel Rivals

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 18 May 2025 - 2:18pm

I just loaded Fedora 42 KDE Plasma on my second computer (Main computer is running POP!_OS) and installed Steam/Marvel Rivals. The game ran perfectly fine with Proton-GE set in the compatibility tools options on Pop! but I'm running into an error i've never seen before on 42.

"DirectX 12 is not supported on your system.

Please update your Windows 10 64-bit operating system (version 1909 or later) and upgrade your graphics card driver.

Ensure that your graphics card meets the minimum requirements (NVIDIA GTX 1060 or AMD RX 580)."

My system does have an older card, but it is a GTX1070. Any ideas of what to do?
