I love multiplayer FPS games, and I love Linux, however anti-cheat holds me back.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 12 Sep 2024 - 8:51pm

I've been a Linux user for around a year or two. Even though I knew how amazing Desktop Linux can be for a much longer time, it was not viable for me because of the lack of support of developers towards the platform in one way or another. This was until major improvements came to Proton and WINE with the fact that Valve worked with EasyAntiCheat and BattlEye developers in order to bring support for these translation layers in their Anti-Cheats. Over the years, I saw a lot of games opting-in into supporting Linux, and a fair share of them were Multiplayer FPS games, but I can't deny the fact that a lot of them aren't supported, because the developers want to put their fingers into OS kernels... Even though EAC and BE are supported, developers of games such as R6 Siege came with an excuse that comes down to basically "uhh... no kernel access ;ccc". I find this very annoying, and I know these companies won't stop doing that and will ignore all privacy and security concerns of players, because they still get the money. I saw a lot of threads that are very similar, but none of the responses to them worked for me (such as playing singleplayer shooters and other generes, which I find boring). I know I can vote with my wallet, but I don't feel like it's doing anything. I even tried workarounds such as Dual booting or streaming from a second Windows PC, but they involve too much trade-offs. I'm looking for alternative approaches that aren't often suggested in other threads, or even game recomendations that work on Linux and are multiplayer shooters.

Thanks for reading my rant, as I said all suggestions welcome.

Games wont launch on Steam

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 12 Sep 2024 - 8:47pm

I tried to update my graphics card but I think I missed a point while switching to Kubuntu. My steam games were in the ''C:' disc and now i cannot connect that to the steam for my game files. Some games run like Stardew Valley but most of them don't.

I installed Steam recently on my Linux Mint desktop, I'm blown away by how many of my favorite games are compatible and playable. The gameplay is wonderful, indistinguishable from Windows.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 12 Sep 2024 - 8:19pm

After spending most of the last week playing games I haven't played in nearly a year, my interest in using Linux as my daily driver OS has been cemented. Sure there are quirks and bugs here and there, but that's okay. Even charming.

What is your favorite video game to play on Linux?

Script to auto-timeout controllers. [Needed for DS3]

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 12 Sep 2024 - 7:33pm

I wanted to post this in case any Linux gamers needed this in the future. I use DS3 controllers for my Arch gaming system, because they were available and are the last production controller afaik with pressure sensitive face buttons needed for some notable PS2-3 games. However, Sony implemented a idle timeout features hinged on being connected to an actual PS3. Now, there are a lot of useful scripts posted around this board and other sites, but I found all to be dependent on non-standard python libraries, modifying udev rules, or assuming a controller will use the same device path. These didn't really work for multiple controllers, scale to non-admin deployment, or generally work for me.

I made a script that monitors bluetooth devices for specific names, matches them to their respective /dev/input/jsX, and monitors them for idle-based disconnection. It should scale to any amount of jsX devices, I tested with 3, or names. The idle time can be set in command args, and it defaults to 1 hour. If you want to add additional controller to monitor, use the names from /proc/bus/input/devices that match the respective device. Here is the python POC:

https://gist.github.com/0x90shell/9cef05b2deecf5de50708ce22d114fb1

I found this had pretty bad performance due to Python threading w/ 10% CPU & 55MB memory usage, though.

Below is the optimized version in Go that is radically better performance wise w/ near 0 CPU usage & 3-6MB memory footprint.

https://gist.github.com/0x90shell/0316b61748da27115a916f3aadf6ec8f

For noobs, compile with
go build jstimeout.go

Here is how I configured it to run with under a user service for reliability.

jstimeout.service --- [Unit] Description=jstimeout daemon After=network.target auditd.service [Service] ExecStartPre=/bin/sleep 10 Type=idle ExecStart=/home/user/bin/jstimeout Restart=on-failure RestartSec=5 [Install] WantedBy=default.target --- CMDs --- systemctl daemon-reload systemctl enable --user jstimeout.service systemctl start --user jstimeout.service submitted by /u/Formal_Note_3283

I would like our game to be accessible on all OS.. so how about Linux? 🤔

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 12 Sep 2024 - 7:05pm

Hello! We have recently posted our game on the steam page (Joeys Shisha Simulator) and we are getting into the part of development where we will be testing internally. The game is being made in Unity and my role is programming and game design. One of my goals is to make the game accessible on as many devices as possible, but I personally have no personal or professional experience with Linux.

I've already done some research and found platform specific bugs , things with rendering, User Interface lagging etc. But I'd rather ask...

Do you have any tips on what to look out for? Or how to approach OS specific bug reporting?

I have Linux friends who are happy to test this for us, but any help and direction is great. Thanks for any tips!

From unplayable to a great experience (solving low fps and sound problems)

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 12 Sep 2024 - 6:20pm

Sekiro and Wukong where unplayable for me under linux (steam/proton) due to low fps and crackling sound problems. It cost me days of trial and error, but at the end I just had to change 2 things:

  • Adding gamemoderun %command% as a launch option to steam games gave me massive fps improvements (from 40fps to 65fps avg.)
  • Adding preempt=full to kernel params completly solved the crackling sound problems

I hope this helps other people to enjoy gaming on linux.
