Sorry for my negligence contributing to the previous thread's untimely death, but posting on 4chan from devices without cookies has become hell, and I'd rather take the punishment for deleting my cookies than change the browser settings on the phone from which I would have been posting this morning.Anyway, has anyone ever shared a Steam library between multiple accounts? I think I've got it working on my new PC, but I haven't tested it much, so I don't know what it might fuck up. Basically I've got multiple user accounts on my PC (for me and my family), and each of them uses Steam with a different account (which is already tons of bloat because Steam unpacks all of its runtime shit to ~/.steam/ but whatever). So I created a directory that belongs to a group shared by all the system's user accounts, and I think I've managed to set the permission bits and ACL on that directory so that anything created in it will belong to that same group and will have group read/write permissions. Then I logged into each Steam account and added that shared directory as a library. As a test, I installed Proton 10.0 to the shared library. All the users' Steam accounts can see that Proton 10.0, and I've verified that I can run a game installed to my personal library using the shared library's Proton. But I haven't tried running a game from the shared library as a user who didn't install it.I'd take a screenshot of what I did but I'm on the old PC now because it's still got more of the kids' games on it.
>because it's still got more of the kids' games on it.I suppose that last part was lacking some context. It's not that I want to play Paw Patrol: On A Roll myself, but the two PCs currently share a desk (and its monitor/keyboard/mouse), and I set up the old PC again before I went to bed last night so the kids wouldn't mess with the new one. Now I'm too lazy to switch all the cables to the new one again until I'm actually going to play a game that needs the better hardware.It'll be nice when I get another desk (etc.) and can have both PCs set up at the same time.
>>559002157>Anyway, has anyone ever shared a Steam library between multiple accountsNope, and most users here are probably lone incels like me
Stupid fucking shitWell, it was just before bump limit so it's not a big deal
The lack of custom maps in Brigador's official community mod compilation (unless I've simply overlooked them) is a bit disappointing. I'd like to see ammo depots for the flamethrower weapons. If I remember correctly, the flame ammo depot asset exists but didn't make the cut for the game's official release, and thus doesn't appear in any of the official maps. At least the flame-type weapons added by mods can be filled with generic ammo drops from enemies.And the lack of mods on the popular mod sites (namely ModDB and Nexus) really blows, especially for a game designed to be moddable (though maybe not very successfully because it seems that combining mods outside of pre-compiled mod packs like the official community compilation isn't exactly trivial). I had seen a list of mods once, but if I remember correctly, a lot of its links were dead. Now I see there's another here (probably not the same list):https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2963636132But the mods themselves, linked from there, are all hosted on... Google Drive? What the fuck? I don't know how people manage to fuck up mod distribution when we have entire web sites dedicated to hosting mods.
>>559008643>designed to be moddableWell, more like made to be officially moddable after the fact. It's really not that easily moddable (especially when it comes to the native Linux port for which use of the modkit requires some extra steps (documented already on the GOG forum)). But yes, the game officially supports modding (hence the official modkit) even if it wasn't designed that way from the ground up.

How's Fedora Workstation vs regular Ubuntu for Linux Gaming? Is there a difference in performance or stability? I've heard of the KDE "krashes" meme from /g/ a lot.

>>559037678>waydroidBecause it requires good wayland support?
>>559037678Good question. I searched and apparently it's because Waydroid relies on Mesa. And Nvidia uses their own proprietary driver, instead of Mesa. Thats why it works on Intel and AMD and even some ARM chips. Man Waydroid is so cool it will only get better, especially with valve being involved now.
>>559000382BWEEEEEEEEEEEEH
>>559037678I'm not surprised. NVIDIA proprietary drivers are same across platform and all their user space drivers do is talking to their kernel blobs using proprietary APIs (for comparison, mesa drivers are using DRM API to talk to their kernel counterparts), so it's no wonder when something requires close Linux integration shit is falling apart.Same thing happened with Wayland: NVIDIA didn't have proper KMS DRM driver that why everting Wayland related was completely broken until recently. I dare to say NVIDIA didn't support Linux: NVIDIA supported Xorg and just made binary compatible shims for wide variety of *nix systems.
>>559055386Never would've imagined I would want to go back to AMD again after switching to Nvidia a few years back for the sake of stability

Has anyone tried getting games using EAC to launch with Proton? I've tried Halo MCC and Totally Accurate Battlegrounds but both crash on launch, Halo has 'unexpected error [#1]' (launching the game without anti cheat runs fine) and TABG nothing opens but steam says it's not running anymore. I've tried Proton 10, experimental and cachyos but all have the same problems.
>>559067983EAC games just work for me, chief. Try using Proton Hotfix? What's your distro and setup?
>>559067983Do you have EAC installed?
>>559074267its over goyim
>>559040360It does technically work with nvidia as well, the waydroid devs just dont care about nvidia. Its the same for why it doesn't work on x11. There is no technical reason why it cant work with both.

>>559028305>>559035759>>559079637>>559083319Holy crap. I think that's the biggest single drop Linux has ever had. I don't really look forward to a whole month of Windows shills gloating about this while pretending nothing is happening with the Chinese language stats.At least the GamingOnLinux plots are crystal clear about what's happening.>https://www.gamingonlinux.com/steam-tracker/Simplified Chinese had what looks like its biggest-ever boost in user share, hitting an all-time high and taking the actual fucking majority of Steam users, and the drop in Linux user share mirroring that insane surge in Chinese users looks just like all the other times that Chinese fucked up the stats for only a month, so anyone with a capacity for pattern recognition can see that Linux is going to shoot back up as soon as the Chinese bot accounts fuck off. I just wish they hadn't put that distro breakdown plot between the OS and language plots. It was easier to see how China fucks with the OS stats when those two plots were right next to each other.The "Linux, English only" plot actually went up, by the way. But I don't know how they get that statistic, because it doesn't seem to be shown on the official hardware survey page.
>>559065220I used to post here from my second phone at work, but now that this phone is dead I can't do it anymore.
>>559079637I really wonder if they're verifying these stats before posting. Like, it would be in Valve's best interests

>>559002157>shared Steam libraryI tested this a bit more and it seems it's not as simple as I'd hoped. I think Steam likes to create certain folders with mode 0700 (no group access), and of course the ACL on my shared directory setting the default permissions for new subfolders can't really do anything about Steam explicitly setting the permissions on things it creates. I could probably get pretty far by running each thing once and then `chmod g+rwx`ing any new things that get created at runtime, but I don't really want to play whack-a-mole. So fuck it. As long as I've got plenty of space, I'll just let it install Proton for each user.Maybe the better way to have a shared Steam library is to create a "steam" user, have a shared library folder owned by "steam", and then do a setuid thing for the Steam executable. But that sounds like its own can of worms that I don't know how to deal with yet.
>>559000382What Linux distro to use?
>>559130684The One I'm Using™
>>559087268I gotta wonder if this is because of the sudden Chinese boom or if it's because people wanted to try Linux for December and figured out they didn't want to deal with the kinks that it still has over Windows' relative compatibility with everything
>>559120363My 5900X is underutilized, it uses just 10% when encoding with the ffmpeg webm script.Also you're compelling me start MP as my next game to replay.On Fugitive without the fix, because it's the fastest way to reach the highest difficulty without unlocking it.
>>559136135>I gotta wonder if this is because of the sudden Chinese boomIt is. See >>559122326>or if it's because people wanted to try Linux for December and figured out they didn't want to deal with the kinks that it still has over Windows' relative compatibility with everythingIt isn't. If the latest data were actually meaningful in terms of Linux adoption trends, it wouldn't just represent people who switched in December switching back. The raw Linux percentage given by the survey is the lowest in a year (or, more specifically, the lowest since last February which was the last time a huge dip in Linux coincided with a huge surge in Simplified Chinese. If you want to believe that everyone who switched to Linux over the past year would suddenly switch back last month for some reason, then go ahead, but in a month or two, you'll have to believe they all installed Linux yet again just as Chinese went back down to where it should be. But in reality, the total number of Linux users probably didn't decrease. It's just the number of Windows users exploding. This happens to the OS stats every time China makes the language stats go crazy.Also, the Linux usage among English-language users went up.
When I try running openmw in a 4:3 aspect ratio it stretches the picture. Is there a fix for this?Also why are native linux games so buggy when it comes to lowering resolution?
>>559130684CachyOS
>>559122326Possibly the funniest part is that the Chinese mostly use Windows 10, so Windows 11 has suffered a significant dip in user share as well, while Windows 10 is back up to 40%.

>>>/v/734265450Huh... Is that actually how GamingOnLinux gets their "Linux, English only" measurement? It seems to work out if you use the exact language percentages.English is 22.27% overall,English is 82.60% of Linux,Linux is 2.23%;2.23*(82.60/2.27)% = 8.27%.But does computing it that way actually make sense?

>>559299354Yeah, it was funny that I get 1 hit killed by random mobs on the map but the final boss only did like 150-500 damage and I killed him quickly. I did almost all side things first. He was a bit underwhelming because of that.
>>559246845Mint as a starting point isn't a bad idea. It's how I got into learning/using Linux a decade ago.Godspeed, anon. You've set yourself up for tech support until he gets the ropes down.
>>559298874Of course I fucked that up.>2.23*(82.60/22.27)% = 8.27%.Fixed.
>>559298874>>559299874I guess I've convinced myself that it works. The 2.23% Linux users and the 22.27% English users have some overlap, and we know that overlap is 82.60% of the Linux users. So I think we can say the percent of overall users falling in both categories is 2.23% * 82.60% = 1.84%. That same overlap would also be some percentage of just the English users, i.e. 22.27% * ____% = 1.84%, so the overlap as a percentage of English users i.e. the percentage of English users on Linux would be 1.84% / 22.27% = 8.27%.
>>559302785I think the same math would imply that Simplified Chinese accounts are using Linux at a rate of 0.067% and no I didn't forget to move the decimal.

So there are 10.01347 (no rounding down) Linux users in total.Of these 10 (rounded down) total Linux users, 82.6% use it in English. Giving a grand total of 8.27 English Linux users, i. e, 8.27% counting only English users

>>559329376That disgusting. I can't imagine paying premium to get this level of "support".
>>559329376also I believe that forces the gpu run at max performance iirc so its not that good of a fix. That means the gpu will always use max power, even when idle.
>>559329489You know what's even worse? on windows they have this profile as part of the driver and they enable it by default for some proprietary software, such as their own nvidia shadowplay and discord. Other applications cant get that benefit programatically, the user has to add a profile for the software manually. So those proprietary software have an unfair advantage.

>>559329701and the even worse part is that when recording with nvenc, cuda isn't actually normally used for processing. Its just used as an api to get a handle to a gpu resource. It doesn't do any processing!

But yeah, in practice, if every major distribution implements it, people who aren't both strongly opposed to it and motivated enough to circumvent it will just give in for convenience.

I spent like two hours trying to get non-steam lossless scaling lsfg-vk to work. I managed to get it working on path of exile 2 (somehow it only worked on vulkan-native applications), it looked like shit, and I nuked it from my system.

>>559471382>CDPR's implementation of HDR is shittyit's mostly that case, otherwise you wouldn't see tutorials on youtube how to fix its implementation or just use RenoDX HDR
Every single time i've read people speak about HDR is they saying something negative about it. I've never seen anyone praise or recommend it, but a lot of people just want to use it anyway. I've used HDR monitors and TVs and they're underwhelming at best.
a lot of games come out on pc and i dont even know they existwhere do you check the new releases?
>>559498494Steam
>>559480542Did you set the multiplier, flow scale and present mode correctly? it looks amazing if you do that
>>559498428You're definitely wrong, HDR is fantastic, even on my cheap AOC monitor that I bought last month.I used RenoDX UE plugin that enables HDR on most of UE games and I played The Ascent recently and it looked fucking great.
What's the best way to force anti-aliasing on an AMD gpu if vkbasalt doesn't work?I'm trying to force AA in Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory because you can't have AA turned on (pic related) if you enable certain graphics options.Forcing AA with vkbasalt seems to have no effect. The logs state that vkbasalt is loading my config file but it makes not difference in how my games looks, even if I use more obvious effects to test. I have used vkbasalt to apply AA in other games successfully before.I know DXVK used to be able to do this but it seems to have been removed. What other options do I have?
>>559506007Your best option is supersampling, but alas there's no such method on Linux gaming, with gamescope being abandoned and such.
>>559498428>i've read people speak about HDR is they saying something negative about it. I've never seen anyone praise or recommend it,Yeah, it's like people are only complaining when they have issues and silently enjoy things when everything is fine

>>559514653So it doesn't do supersampling for forced anti-aliasing? I thought it did. Oh well. I don't use it. Maybe someone should fork it if Valve won't implement the features people want.>but that's hardOh well.

>>559515393>Unredirected modeIt's something to do with fullscreen and I don't get the issues with it?
>>559515409I meant fork it to have a fork, not fork it to merge into upstream. If there are solutions to these problems, hence the pull requests, then it's proof that someone who cares and has time (i.e. not me and yes I'm a hypocrite) can run off and make their own gamescope with blackjack and hookers and release it as gamescope-staging or whatever. A lot of Proton-GE changes will never be pulled into Proton, so that's why people use Proton-GE instead of just whining that Valve's Proton is abandoned.

I guess artifacts on 115% fractional scaling on AMD cards won't be fixed to I had to move to 125%...
>>559532703The fact fractional scaling is still in such a state just goes to prove monitors have gotten too large.
>>559534632It's actually proving that monitors aren't BIG enough. If they were big enough we would use integer scale and there would be no problems.
>>559534632I don't get this, can you elaborate on why you think this?
>>559538451I have never needed fractional scaling on my modestly sized 1440p monitor. :^)

Is it true that SSDs are durable enough to last a long time these days as long as I'm not going out of my way to write gigantic files to them constantly?I have "my SSD just died a little" anxiety every time I write a file to it, and it's the main OS drive so I have no idea how much bullshit logging Linux Mint will poop out to storage, nor do I know how to control or prevent that. For what it's worth, I'm already using profile-sync-daemon for the browser, and I'm installing games to a mounted HDD unless and until I find one that actually needs SSD storage for performance (and shortening loading screens doesn't count as a "need" so I'm not aware of any such games that I actually want to play).
>>559604402profile sync daemon and zswap is more than enough to avoid unnecessary disk writes, you're goodpersonally wouldn't bother avoiding installing games on an ssd, that's what its there for and you get so much lifetime that it shouldn't ever be a concern

>>559605006>profile sync daemon and zswapI did those two, and also moved Firefox's cache to RAM perhttps://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Firefox/Tweaks#Move_disk_cache_to_RAMbecause this cache exists outside of the profile (why? just to annoy me I guess).I probably could have just turned off disk cache, but whatever. It's fine unless the amount of RAM allocated to /run/user/$(id -u)/ fills up (at which point... well I'm not sure what happens but I assume the worst-case scenario is the profile moved there by profile-sync-daemon gets evicted and I have to restore a backup to get my bookmarks back).
Also,>>559605006>personally wouldn't bother avoiding installing games on an ssd, that's what its there forI guess you're right but I'm already enjoying Linux and Steam starting up so much faster, and the games I've played so far are low-end enough that they don't take long to load from the HDD.

Lol, wintoddlers are so pathetic.>WAAAH I DISABLE SIGNING CHECKS FOR POWERSHELL SCRIPTS NOW MY SYSTEM IS INSECUREYeah, imagine if we could run any unsigned sh/bash/zsh/python scripts. What a horror!
>>559616583So the default behavior in Windows is what? One of those security confirmation pop-ups before the script executes?To be fair, regarding the image, it looks like someone's batch script is doing something really shitty there, unless the explicitly advertised purpose of the script is to change the execution policy. I'm lacking context (what is that forum?) but if this is for applying some crack to a pirated game or whatever, it shouldn't just silently have a permanent side effect on user permissions (which is what it sounds like it's doing). I mean, if I ran an installer script on Linux and it changed my umask before creating a file instead of just running chmod on the file after creating it, I'd be pretty annoyed.Of course you can just say "read the script before running it"... but Windows users won't, so we can come full-circle back to laughing at them now.
>>559618825>So the default behavior in Windows is what? One of those security confirmation pop-ups before the script executes?No, it forbids running any script which is not signed by a valid CA.
damn this game is fun when you actually get a decent setup going
>>559618825>To be fair, regarding the image, it looks like someone's batch script is doing something really shitty there, unless the explicitly advertised purpose of the script is to change the execution policy.It's nothingburger really, this line allows current user to run any script, even those download from the internet (iirc you need to change some checkbox under file properties for system to stop treating it as downloaded from internet).For example, scoop instructs you to allow running any unsigned LOCAL scripts which isn't very different from what this crack does (and you can circumvent remote execution protection by downloading scripts with powershell curl analog and piping it output to Invoke-Expression applet).

This part has so much soul. It reminds me of old games that suck.Yes I see that anti-aliasing is off. I think I left the graphics at their default settings. I just cranked everything up to highest and then closed the game without seeing how much better it looks. lol
>>559616583I think by default you can't just create a .ps1 script and run it, you need to get a trusted CA to sign it first, as absurd as that sounds. Thankfully you can turn that off which is what they're freaking out about.Of course .bat files still run on double click so who knows the logic behind it. Probably because there's a whole bunch of enterpriseware designed to stop .bat files from reaching Karen in HR, but at the time Powershell released it hadn't been updated to block .ps1 files yet.
>>559622468And so do executables
Not so fast
Well...
4chan is pretending the IP of one of my computers is banned due to "abuse" so no screenshots from there for now, but I think I'll be playing Prey (the newer one) tonight.I suspect the "abuse" is that I didn't go out of my way to save 4chan cookies from deletion like I did on my other computer which has a browser profile just for 4chan. I never have trouble posting from there. But it's my shittier computer so I don't want to use it for this game. I think I would need to put it on less than max settings.Posting from my phone works, apparently, which is funny...
Oops. I mean blocked, not banned. I am not banned on that machine (or any other), as 4chan.org/banned confirms. It's just the "temporarily blocked" (or whatever the wording is) that can be bypassed by verifying an email address.Anyway, it's either Prey tonight or I try to get GOG's Resident Evil 1 working. Apparently cutscenes are fucked unless you either add a DLL not provided by Winetricks or use some big overhaul mod/patch that works only with the Japanese version. I think I'd rather do the former for a first playthrough of I can get that DLL from a trustworthy place (like my other PC's neglected Windows partition).

>>559635594>4chan.org/bannedThat one is dogshit, on my end it says that I'm not banned and yet I still can't post because my IP range is perma blocked for 4 years when I switched to a new ISP.
>>559640967Well my point was simply that one needn't waste their time falsely reporting me for ban evasion of a non-existent ban. What's going on with my IP could be considered a """ban""" only insofar as 4chan itself provides a method of "ban evasion" i.e. the email verification that works only until my cookies are deleted again because I didn't jump through hoops to hoard them instead of letting my browser delete them on exit.
On that note, that last post was from the PC on which my IP was supposedly blocked before, so I guess it's not blocked now. I usually use private mode, but I opened 4chan in normal mode earlier, and I guess I let the cookie bake long enough this time. This only supports my hypothesis that not having cookies was the "abuse" in question.On the topic of GAMING™, should I use Heroic for GOG or just use offline installers and run the games with umu-launcher? I haven't used either of these things yet.
Or is umu-launcher on its own even viable? I know it's meant to be used by other launchers. Or is it Proton-GE that actually interacts with umu?Anyway, I also know about Faugus, but unfortunately the name is stupid so I'm not going to use it. Umu is stupid too, to be honest. This is like 30% of the reason I'm on Mint instead of Ubuntu. If I'm not 100% sure of how to pronounce it within 1 second of seeing the name, marketing failed. Simple as.
>>559644757Yes? Launchers just automate commands and envars.
>>559646363Well ideally it's as simple, but if the umu-run program itself is useless without other things that launchers provide and would be a pain in the ass to install manually, then I'd rather just use a launcher.I did download Heroic, by the way, and the interface seems okay, but I haven't really used it to play anything. When I do, I guess I'll just let it use Proton-GE (which is the thing it really really wants to use by default)...? It has the option to use Steam's Proton but that's hidden by default because, oh no, it doesn't have protonfixes or something.Anyway, I'm playing Prey. Didn't get very far into it last year. I thought about starting over, but... meh. I remember as much as I ever understood about the story or how to play.The default controls are shit though.>C to crouch>F for using stuff>typical "every common action is bound to an index-finger key so fuck you if you're trying to strafe right while doing any of these things" controls in generalYeah, fuck this.Of course there's no solution to movement-key fingers having to do some other things unless I buy a mouse with 90 buttons, but I'm at least going to switch to ESDF and bind some not-to-awkward things to Z and A which can become pinky keys, and use the extra mouse buttons I do have.
I hate "crafting" but at least they made it somewhat visually interesting and satisfying.
>>559660070>Not Enough SpaceYes, I did forget to shred my junk first.Anyway I hope I can refrain from raiding every garbage can without having ammo troubles because I do not want to be doing this much inventory management unless these recyclers are very common and so far they're not. I backtracked a bit to cram all my garbage into this one.
>>559643264>just use offline installers and run the games with umu-launcherI've been doing it like that ever since umu came out and I'm pretty happy with it, only issue I've had was the XALIA thing I mentioned a couple of threads ago (which had a workaround anyway so it wasn't a big deal).

>>559661831Yeah, something I was reading implied that launchers are responsible for the database lookup. But I don't mind manually looking up an ID to put in a desktop entry's exec arguments.I want to try using umu-run directly, but I'm probably going to keep Heroic as well and maybe try one of those games for which I didn't give Tim Sweeney any money.I already downloaded a GOG game as a test. Heroic uses a GOG API that launchers like Heroic are allowed to use, right? The thing has been around long enough with nobody getting banned that I assume GOG is either okay with it or comfortable ignoring it. And if I wake up tomorrow and GOG deleted my account for violating the TOS, then they'll also have deleted any chance that I'll buy from them again.

>game installer offers to create menu and desktop shortcuts>"okay">they are separate filesWow, thanks for the BLOAT.>$ rm ~/Desktop/game.desktop>$ ln ~/.local/share/applications/game.desktop ~/Desktop/game.desktopThat's a hard link, by the way. You DO use hard links when you want access to a file in two places, don't you, /lgg/? Surely you don't use symbolic links like a PUSSY.Also, a symbolic link on the desktop would suck ass because my desktop environment would put a little arrow emblem on it like it's a disgusting Windows shortcut, while a symbolic link in the menu would also suck ass because it would break if I ever decide I don't want the desktop shortcut anymore and delete it (because the desktop should have only frequently used things as opposed to the menu which should have everything). And bloat jokes aside, a copy of the menu shortcut on the desktop sucks too because any change (e.g. adding arguments or modifying the icon) would need to be done twice.
>>559711048>create application shortcut >add application to my quicklaunch widget that's in top center of the desktop >click and playit just werks
>>559711590>he can't drag them wherever he wants on the desktop and arrange them into a smiley faceHow soulless
On the subject of desktop entries, it's pretty lame that Steam just puts>Comment=Play this game on Steamin every single one instead of, for example, using the blurb that appears between the header image and review score on a game's store page. The same text appears in the Steam library, when the "game details" section is expanded, so the client already has it. In fact I once wrote an unmaintainable nightmare of a Bash script to pull that text from the Steam client's library cache and insert it into the desktop entries, but it wasn't worth it. The text sometimes isn't cached unless you've recently viewed the game in the Steam library, so last time I ran the script against a large number of installed games, I had to click my way down the entire installed game list in order for the script to do its thing, which practically defeats the purpose of the automation.With only a small number of games installed on my new PC so far (pic unrelated because I'm on the old one right now), I might just update all the Comments manually and then try to get into the habit of doing that for newly installed games going forward. If I want to be able to bring up all the Steam games by searching Steam then I can append a Keywords line or something.

>>559716730>What do you think of it?That depends on what, if anything, will stop working.Whatever breaks, it's just going to be dead forever, because despite some of the Linux community providing surprisingly good support for old shit like ancient GPUs, the rest of the Linux community gets an actual hard-on for killing support for things that have even a half-viable replacement, and so the answer will always be that there's no use case for whatever broke or that the developer of a closed-source program that isn't maintained anymore should implement Wayland support and hence CLOSED [WONTFIX] and also you're banned because X11 is far-right and transphobic or something.

>>559727835Your post reminded me that I wanted to try GOG's Resident Evil 1. I didn't get to it last night, or rather I didn't want to get into a long troubleshooting process... but it wasn't so bad.In my earlier post >>559635594, I was referring to this GOG thread>https://www.gog.com/forum/resident_evil_series/how_to_install_on_linuxin which — skipping over recommendations of Lutris (because I don't want to install it), dgvoodoo2 (because the developer's behavior has convinced me to use it only as a last resort), and the "Classic Rebirth" mod (because I'd rather start with the "vanilla" experience) — there's a post that recommends adding mciavi32.dll and then setting Wine DLL overrides for ddraw, dinput, and mciavi32.Of course I started by running the game with no tweaks at all. I just downloaded it from Heroic and ran it, and even let Heroic default to Linux Mint's Wine 9.0 instead of installing Proton-GE (because, from what I've read, just using Proton-GE does not fix the cutscenes here despite its reputation for video playback).Initially the game crashed with some error about failing to initialize the graphics device, the same error described in another GOG thread>https://www.gog.com/forum/resident_evil_series/failed_to_initialize_the_graphic_hardware_device3in which the solution is just the Wine DLL override for ddraw. So I set WINEDLLOVERRIDES to "ddraw=n,b" and ran it again, and the game started but cutscenes were audio only. So I took mciavi32.dll from the Windows 10 partition on my other PC, dropped it in the game folder, and changed WINEDLLOVERRIDES to "ddraw,mciavi32=n,b". That fixed the cutscenes.So it appears to be fully working now, and I'm not sure if there's any reason to add dinput to the DLL overrides. It's possible that the GOG forum user included it in the overrides just a dinput.dll comes with the game. If I see any other problems then I'll try adding that to the overrides. I haven't tried using a controller yet.
Controller input seems to work.So I think it's literally just>add a copy of mciavi32.dll to the game folder>set WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw,mciavi32=n,b"and run it with Wine version who-the-fuck-cares.But maybe something Heroic did automatically (like installing DXVK) is also necessary.
>>559736301>It's possible that the GOG forum user included it in the overrides just *because* a dinput.dll comes with the game.Fixed.Now if only moot would fix that edit button
>>559684994>from 25 minutes (lol) to 2 minutes 45 secondsThe wonders of vibe codingI'm personally just waiting for Vortex to release their Linux version
Anyone here tried C&C Generals (and Zero Hour)? The game does some sort of a check if your PC is powerful enough to show this animated menu and Wine fails that check so it just shows a static image. Any idea what it could be checking?

>>559741071>I'm personally just waiting for Vortex to release their Linux versionNah, I wouldn't put faith in these retards. They wasted 1.5 years on their cross-platform mod manager only to say "oh well, we're back to vortex". God knows how for how long they'll port Vortex and what would be the quality of resulting product. I highly doubt they'll implement FUSE-based VFS just like in Fluorine, probably just symlink bullshit that every other mod manager has. Meanwhile Fluorine is basically complete, at least for SkyrimSE and FNV.Dude also ported BodySlide.
I've made SkyrimSE modpack last year and now it causes full utilization of 9070XT and 80% of 9800X3D, while base game just takes slight below 30% of 9070XT and 10% of 9800X3D. I've tried to disable some mods but didn't get better results. Guess I'll just wipe this shit and start from scratch...

I hate when I need to use package manager other than my system one. Dude was pinning vckpkg repository which isn't compatible with modern build tools, and when I unpin it shit just doesn't compile.
It seems that native builds are dying. Developers prefer not to adapt their projects to upstream changes, but freeze build systems at some specific states (Ubuntu LTS) and only support such states.
>>559790628Im a retard when it comes to swe, but can't developers just statically link everything so that the game always justwerks regardless of whatever library you have in your system?
>>559795613This is not about linking, this is about building application. Developers need some environment to build their project with corresponding dependencies. Changes in dependencies tend to break building existing projects, so devs prefer stick to a single configuration that doesn't change over time (for example, building their applications inside Ubuntu LTS container). This results in situation where project aren't adapted to modern versions of dependencies and can't be compiled on modern systems (like Arch Linux). Good developers tend to support their projects and adapting them to new versions of dependencies. Bad developers stick to their containers to the end of times and offer users Appimage/Flatpak while refusing to provide support for other environments.

Ok I've managed to get native C&C Generals Zero Hour working. You need to grab binaries from luxtorpeda repo since binaries from original repo are broken. https://github.com/luxtorpeda-dev/packages/releases/tag/cnc-generals-28Game runs from run-generals.sh scripts. Game crashing without `-wn` command line argument, so if you wish to play in fullscreen you need a windows rule (supposing your WM has window rules).

(this means the dll injector didn't work because of some incompatibility issue)>Scour some r-eddit posts and some people recommend using GE-Proton9-2>Game works now>After a while, switch back to GE-Proton10-32...>This works now...I'm just wondering what happened here? I wish Steam had better interface for this. Did GE-Proton9-2 overwrite some files which 10-32 didn't? This is the only thing what I can think of here.
>>559813565>Did GE-Proton9-2 overwrite some files which 10-32 didn't?Probably dotnet48 installed properly on proton 9. dotnet48 was always pain in the ass
>>559814610It's not a problem outside of steam at least. I use it in my own main prefix.I also did a test by cracking the game and running it inside my own prefix using umu-run and GP10-32, it didn't work either. In this case I didn't still know about GP9-2.I then decided to go back to Steam just in case.It's a tricky game to run, took a while to find couple of different guides and piece them together. Almost every game has been pretty much painless one way or another, AC is a special case.

>>559393846They're good for something if you're either a total noob or really lazy. You can manually get from stock Fedora to Nobara in less than 30 min.Bazzite is a more complicated matter since it's atomic. In MY experience and opinion, there's not really any benefits to atomic distros as of yet. They still break from updates like any other distro and you have to wait for devs to fix it. Either Debian, Fedora or Arch are great distros to start if you wanna have absolute control over your system. That's the recommended way.
For me, it's Steam Proton > Heroic Games Launcher > WINE-stable directly from winehq > VirtualBox Windows > dual-boot directly into Windows. If it still doesn't work after all that, then it's probably a Macintosh exclusive or I have an incompatible GPU/CPU.

Lutris seemed like a better solution at first, but it’s been giving me similar issues so now I’m gonna try Bottles.If this doesn’t work, then I’m just gonna bite the bullet and try to git gud at Wine prefix management.
>>559867775Man I remember liking Nocturne but I lost the disc, I should give it another shot.

>>559981692ACK-Truly, tanks are the scariest enemies in this game.>take two railgun shots to blow up>can be crushed, but completely kill your momentum>lead their shots with 100% accuracy even if you dash
>>559982043Tank beats everything!
>>559982043I will never pick this leg type again. Skill issue, I should have just hit W instead of S since I went through the trouble of turning them around.
get stomped idiot
@me when wine finally removes X11 support so I can install the last version before it.
>>559993318>get unlucky enough to lose torso turn speed and weapon accuracy through chip damage on the last stage>die to the boss because I couldn't get my weapons on him fast enough between shield dropping/dodging fireArghhh

Can anyone tey launching an UE 4 game with Steam and report back if it can launch without issues.I have this problem where after multiple attempts the game finally launches, otherwise it's stuck at the game's logo.It happened with the Ascent and now it's happening with Terminator Resistance.
>>559981692>>559982043>>559990965>>559993318Looks fun, does it have native linux port?

Predator legs with the T3 harpoon gun is just hilarious. Now for the third campaign on hard, then lament extreme.>>560014915Yep. That's what I'm using.
>>560018745It seems to get a bit CPU limited when there's a lot of enemies on the map.Haven't tried the Windows version through Proton though. But I assume that's just indie dev optimization.
>>560013659Deep Rock Galactic starts up no issues for me.
>>560022000I think the issue is that there are 2 executables, one in base Terminator folder and the other one in Binaries folder, and the one in Binaries folder is the one which starts the game and maybe steam tries multiple times to start the one in the main folder.
>>560023989that's with all ue4/5 games iirc
>>560024132Hmm, I guess I'll try another UE 4 game.
>descriptorHeap on 580This means that I can play DX12 games on my Quadro P1000 (cut down 1050ti) at work?
>>560024671Looks like this one starts just fine.Fun game
>>560044042Gungrave?
>>560045934Yep, emulated the first game last year, beat it in an hour, tried the second one but dropped it because it's running at 30 fps and now playing this one before the new version comes out.
>>560046216The first game is that short? Gonna have to give it a try.
>>560052241>The first game is that short?Okay, I was wrong with my an hour playtime, just looked in pcsx2 and I played 2h of it.So yeah, it's longer than an hour.
anyone here plays slay the spire?should i play the first one before i try the second one?

And no doors?? How could this happen to me?
