Minecraft LAN not working between Linux and MacOS

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 12:35pm

Me and my gf like to play minecraft together on a LAN server hosted from her Macbook. I recently switched from Windows 11 to Linux POP!_OS. We used to have almost no problems back when I was on Windows however now the server only shows up rarely like once a week. We've tried everything. We have set the JVM arguments in her minecraft launcher to prever ipv4 and disabled her firewall, and I have disabled ufw on my PC. Has anyone experienced similar issues?

Btw, YES! we are on the same network:)

SteamVR Beta gets an SDL fix for Fedora Linux fans

Valve seem to be actually cleaning up SteamVR on Linux a bit more recently, which is kind of exciting when it's been left rough for so long.

Playtron give a bit more detail on the Linux-based PlaytronOS and their plans

Gaming on Linux - 7 May 2024 - 11:40am
So far, I've not been particularly impressed by Playtron and PlaytronOS, but I'm always keen to see more Linux-based systems and devices do well especially when they do have developers who know what they're doing. Now we have another trickle of info coming in about it.

Star Wars Battlefront II and Titanfall 2 are borked on my system

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 11:38am

Title says it all, but for some mroe details - Battlefront II gets past the EA App, loads into a black screen, and then crashes without fail. Titanfall 2 doesn't get any further as it fails to boot at all with EA giving me a vague "failed to boot" error. Tried running things under Experimental, 9.0, 8.0, nothing works.

Anyone able to give some sort of specific advice? Titanfall 2 used to work great but now it just doesn't work at all.

If you're a game developer I hope you weren't planning to launch soon, as Hades II just sneakily dropped into Early Access on Steam. It's also Steam Deck Verified right away!

Moving from Windows to Linux Experience

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 10:39am

Hello, So I've been trying to get into Linux as of late. Because I heard some good stuff people said with it

First,I like to preface that I do have some Linux experience through WSL and doing server hosting with AWS and Azure.

With that experience, I often update the distro before doing anything. Here's my experience

Specs Laptop Lenovo IdeaPad Ryzen 5 4600h GTX1650

My first attempt at it was with Pop OS.

So far so good, And then Pop Shop was bugging out, search cause infinite loop, some items when click for full page, cause it to crash or closed.

Pop shop doesn't show some packages and even flatpak.

My wireless mouse doesn't work at all sometimes.

Installed KDE on it, and it cause more issues because I didn't know you should only use 1

Ended up wiping it

Second attempt, Fedora with KDE Software manager was fine.

Discord screen share dialogue Box bombarded me over and over. So I couldn't even use it

When setting to a secondary monitor ONLY, the system would lag the hell out

And issues with audio equalizations

Wiped

Third attempt, Ubuntu

Most of the journey was fine surprisingly, With experience, I learn to use Easy Effect. I ignore Software Center and download Gnome Software from terminal and manually add Flatpak.

I was finally set up

Now, gaming. Here's the kicker to my balls.

If you have an NTFS partition drive for your games. Just don't bother. Just don't even bother to use Linux.

Linux has very poor support to NTFS. Especially with Steam.

I can get Gog pre-installed games running. Steam games I couldn't as Wine couldn't open the executable from the NTFS.

I don't have a spare drive to move files over to format it to a non NTFS drive. So I couldn't do much about it.

So here I am now. I still wanna give another attempt at Linux, this time, Mint. I will use Mint, or maybe another distro if recommended, any advice I should be aware ahead of time?

What are some Linux distros that will be the least hellish trying to get drivers for a GTX 560m I've tried three versions of Ubuntu one of them worked but the graphics card drivers nearly immediately broke

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 8:32am

I'm downloading opensuse tw I hope it has support for my card if it's not I'm just going to have to fight with Windows I guess which I'm not looking forward to it refuses to let me past a driver install part which Windows would probably automatically download the drivers needed after installation I've been at this for like 8 and 1/2 hours and I'm starting to go insane I will go insane if I have to install Ubuntu One More Time

I'm too sleep deprived for this crap

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 8:02am

I've been trying to get Linux on my laptop for 8 hours and the main problem is I have a GTX 560m when I got the laptop for $100 it had Windows 11 installed the mouse wouldn't work so long thing short accidentally corrupted the operating system and now I'm working with Linux when I downloaded Linux my mouse worked yippee but my driver's didn't so I have been trying to install Linux 48th time I just found out if I don't use the network version of that one Bistro I forgot the name of but I use the offline version it will let me install it easier so I'm using that I think it's called like opensuse yes that it's the Tumbleweed version anyway if I get this working I hope it was worth the sweep the prices rage and so so many tears

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 7:39am

I've tried many versions of Ubuntu too many none of them support the nvidia 390 drivers I'm trying to find a alternative that will support my card that also gets updates and is relatively user friendly I'm not touching Arch I do not want to deal with that I'm already going insane from installing Linux 7 times in a row opensuse tw was recommended to me but I put it on my USB and that's a sketchy old looking installer

Does anyone know if Evolved Perfect World International is playable on Linux?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 7:29am

Just as the title says, I'm wondering if Evolved Perfect World International is playable on Linux?

I ask this because, after learning about Evolved Perfect World International last night and reading on the removal of Perfect World International's Pay-To-Win components, downloading and successfully installing Evolved Perfect World International save for DirectX through Lutris, I launched the game only to find that, while patcher.exe does start, it immediately crashes upon drawing the launchers window boarder.

I feel I must apologize for not knowing what flair this post belongs in.

Local files music player with tidal integration?

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 5:55am

I hope this is the right place to ask, but is there a high quality music player available on linux (or more specifically Fedora) that has local files capabilities and tidal integration? I'm using USB Audio Player Pro on Android and was wondering if there's a linux equivalent. Thanks!

Ubuntu / Debian Gaming Distro

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 5:17am

Looking for a good rolling release Ubuntu Debian Distro that can act as my main driver for my laptop. Work software we use has compatibility for Red Hat and Ubuntu. From my understanding Ubuntu is more freedom based than Red Hat. Any recommendations on a distro I can try out. Something that has gaming options oriented.

I have one full AMD tablet 8000 series and I have 14 gen i9 with a 4090.

Thank you Community!

Maybe this is a dumb question

Reddit Linux_Gaming - 7 May 2024 - 3:37am

Would this be the correct file path for cuberpunk 2077 on gog/lutris?:

Home/games/gog/cyberpunk-2077/drive-c/users/name/savedgames/cd project red/cyberpunk2077

When I click all the way through the path I end up in a directory with around 20 separate auto saves and manual saves. I assume this is correct. Im upgrading my ssd to a new drive and want to move my game save to the new drive after a fresh install of OS and lutris and cyberpunk.
