Black Screen for Unity Games

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 21 Aug 2025 - 11:59am

If I try to play a Unity game with wine, I only have a black screen. If it is 3D I have many black fragments and only a few hints what could be an object.

I am using Debian 13 with [AMD/ATI] Navi 32 [Radeon RX 7700 XT / 7800 XT] and Debian provided drivers (firmware-amd-graphics) on Wayland.

Can someone help me debugging what's going on and how to fix it?

Visual bug when playing Hollow Knight

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 21 Aug 2025 - 11:36am

In Hollow Knight i sometimes get this visual bug like in the screenshot. This bug randomly occurs when entering a new room. Sometimes leaving and reentering the room fixes this, but not always. As you can see, the UI is perfectly fine, also when opening the menu/inventory.

I have a feeling that is has something to do with my Linux OS, because i've never seen this on my Windows pc, but i have no evidence.

My OS is Fedora 42 KDE Plasma and my hardware is a Thinkpad L14 Gen5 AMD. I have my proton settings in Steam set to Proton Hotfix.

Is there any easy-to-setup Crossplatform Linux/Windows program for creating a remote LAN for gaming (like Hamachi, Game ranger...) ?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 21 Aug 2025 - 11:09am

Hey everyone,

I’ve been gaming on Linux for years (including online multiplayer), but recently some friends of mine (on Windows) and I have been trying to find a way to play old PC games together over LAN remotely. Back in the day, stuff like Hamachi or GameRanger was the go-to solution.

The problem is, I can’t find any solid cross-platform (Linux/Windows) alternatives these days.

The most important thing is that it should be Linux/Windows comoatible and really easy to set up, since not all of my friends are comfortable with the terminal or complex configurations.

Does anyone know of any tools or services that could help us out?

Thanks in Advance!

Assetto Corsa crashing after I tried installing content manager on Linux Mint.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 21 Aug 2025 - 9:28am

I saw a tutorial on how to do it, followed all the steps, even got it to run, though I couldn't find the game root since the launcher didn't see the ".local" where steam is. After that I deleted the manager and returned to the normal one, now every time I launch it it asks for .net frameworks 4.8, I click no like I usually do, then a black screen flashes and crashes. I updated the system a few hours ago.

Desktop Files from Steam are in wrong path

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 21 Aug 2025 - 9:19am

Hello,

whenever I create a Desktop shortcut in Steam, the .desktop file is created in ~/Desktop, does anyone know if there's a way to tell steam to store them in ~/.local/share/applications?

Wuthering Waves with Gamescope – Can it Match Lossless Scaling on Windows?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 21 Aug 2025 - 6:00am

I’m relatively new to Linux gaming. My PC configuration is a Ryzen 5 5600G, 16GB Corsair DDR4 3200MHz RAM, no dedicated graphics card, and a 1600×900 monitor. As expected, I get low FPS in certain areas of Wuthering Waves. On Windows, Lossless Scaling was a big help—it gave me around 60 FPS in most areas. Unfortunately, Lossless Scaling is Windows-only, and I can’t run it with Wine since it can’t interfere once Proton handles the display translation.

I recently came across Gamescope, which seems to work similarly to Lossless Scaling, but I’m not sure how to set it up or whether it can give me the same (or even better) results.

For reference, I’m using Arch Linux.

High resolution mouse overscrolling in Counter Strike 2.

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 21 Aug 2025 - 2:49am

EndeavorOS. I just got a Logitech G502. it works fine in desktop use, scrolling is fine and as expected.

However in CS2, when run natively, a single scroll dent input, just one notch, sends like 10 scroll inputs to the game. I have tried setting the libinput quirks to AttrScrollDiscrete=1, and ive tried changing settings with imwheel, and nothing works, It seems like source 2 is reading raw mouse inputs and interpreting the 10 or so +15 high_res outputs my mouse sends as multiple inputs.

I also cant use the scroll wheel in any menus, settings for example, nothing happens when i scroll up or down.

If i boot cs2 with a compatibility layer such as Proton Experimental, then it fixes the overshoot scroll issue, but now i am getting dropped scroll inputs.

Does anybody have any idea how to fix this?

Linux distribution for gaming

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 20 Aug 2025 - 11:48pm

Hi,

I think post like this was here at least 1000 times, but why not have it one more time :)

Something about my backgroung.
I am programmer with about decade of experience with programming, out of which about 2-3 years of experience with linux programming, so some config files will not scare me. But I am totally inocent regarding "gaming ready linux distributions".

And this is what I am asking you about.

Games I am playing are: World of Warcraft, Hearts of Iron 4, Europa Universalis 4 (soon also 5), Euro Truck Simulator 2.
Other programs I need for my daily routine are: Brave browser, Discord, VLC.

I am asking you to suggest you to me some good linux distribution oriented on gaming. I recently did see video from JayzyTwoCents (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sa8nMiEoti0) - and it looks good, but I want to hear some other experience, because my experience are limited to debian, ubuntu and some fanatically secured undisloced (private repo) linux distro.

And to not forget, I need that distribution to be able smoothy to be dualboot. I still have some programs on windows where there is no good replacement on linux and I can not accept some "less quality stuff". So dualboot is must-have.

Issues with Hogwarts Legacy

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 20 Aug 2025 - 10:49pm

I’m playing Hogwarts Legacy on EndeavourOS with the Steam Flatpak version.
Overall the game runs really well, but I’m running into what I think are texture streaming/loading issues.

It’s most noticeable when flying on the broom: as soon as I turn into a direction I haven’t been before, the game stutters for a moment and then continues smoothly. Normally I get a steady 60 FPS with around 70–80% GPU usage.

The game is installed on NVMe (BTRFS across two NVMEs, but I also tested EXT4 with the same result). On the exact same hardware under Windows 11, these “asset streaming” hitches don’t happen.

I’ve tried Proton, Proton Experimental, and Proton GE – same outcome.
Currently my Steam launch options are:
DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME="AMD" mangohud %command%
(Without the filter it tries to use the wrong GPU.)

Any idea what else could be causing this?

Hardware:
GPU: RX 7800 XT
CPU: i5-12600K
RAM: 32 GB DDR4

SOLVED: EA app crash prevents SWBF2 from launching in steam

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 20 Aug 2025 - 9:14pm

Download the EAappinstaller directly from their website
Cut from your download folder and paste into your folder that already contains the one steam downloaded, usually something like:
/home/YOUR_USERNAME_HERE/.var/app/com.valvesoftware.Steam/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/STAR WARS Battlefront II/__Installer/Origin/redist/internal
Launch SWBF2
EA app should open and let you login
If not, add that .exe file as a non-steam game and launch with proton, login, close the app and try launching SWBF2 again.
Let me know if this works, please
