Steam not opening
So as of yesterday i tried opening steam and it gave me a bunch of errors about flatpak not being installed so I tried fixing that. It got to the point where i got the message telling me to run "flatpak install org.freedesktop.Platform.GL32.Debug.default//23.08" in the terminal, which i did, and it installed successfully but when i try to open steam i get absolutely nothing not even an error message. Ive tried restarting my pc multiple times and still nothing. Im so confused im not extremely tech savvy
Only reason im using flatpak version of steam is because a similar thing happened ages ago with the normal version of steam so i switched to flatpak and it worked fine but now flatpak isnt working

Nioh 2 Crash Under Lutris
(Crossposted from wine_gaming.) Hello, all. I'm having trouble running Nioh 2 on Artix Linux after a major system upgrade (i.e., motherboard, CPU, memory change; also programs moved to a new, separate drive mounted to the same directory). I managed to get it working perfectly long before the upgrade, but when time came to reinstall Wine and Lutris, things went ugly: the game wouldn't ever make it past a black screen. Here are the error logs under two variations of the settings that once worked:
Nioh 2 Wine Error w/ DXVK: https://pastebin.com/2j8mczdt
Nioh 2 Wine Error w/o DXVK: https://pastebin.com/Qa6Fr9Zj
Nioh 2 Wine Error w/o DXVK, accompanying Windows error message: https://pastebin.com/BcbUkPPv
With DXVK, the game's window doesn't even come up. Without it, it does, but it crashes before anything shows. Here is some system information:
CPU: Ryzen 9 7950X
Memory: 128 GB
OS: Artix Rolling GPU: Radeon RX 6950 XT GPU Driver: AMDGPU Mesa Version: Mesa 24.0.6-arch1.2 Display Server: Xorg DE: Xfce
If any other information is needed, please ask. Help would be much appreciated.

gpu (Nvidia gtx 1060) temp is getting 82°C while playing Planet Coaster (fresh game)
I just started a new game in Planet Coaster and my gpu temperature goes up to 82°C. I have everything set to lowest graphic settings. I'm a bit worried about my GPU if it always is at 82°C.
Is there something like a eco mode that I can use to reduce performance but keep the card cooler?
Also it does seem a bit strange to me that if I just start a new game, with nothing placed so far, the gpu gets that high temperatures. Is that normal?
I don't have such high temperature values in any other game I play.
I'm using Ubuntu 20.04 and I use GE-Proton-7.22 to play Planet Coaster (through Steam).
Any ideas?

Can Bottles Prevent Viruses When Launching Cracked Windows Games?
I recently came across a thread discussing the potential risks of running cracked games on Windows using Wine. There was a mention that using Bottles could mitigate the risk by running the program in a sandbox environment, thus preventing viruses from infecting the system. Can anyone provide a detailed explanation of how this works? Thanks

Ghost of Tsushima Frame Gen Crashes
A heads up to anyone having issues with GoT.
If you have Frame Gen enabled, you will get lots of crashes, both mid game and when tabbing out or changing graphics settings.
Other than that, the game runs super nicely!

SMAPI not working
So I'm trying to mod stardew valley, however the mods never load, and I have no idea why. I perfectly followed the instructions, and it told me that booting it up as usual would launch SMAPI automatically. However, it doesn't. The only notable things I would say are off is that launching stardew valley doesn't show a terminal pop-up launching SMAPI, and that when I try to launch it, most of the time it says "Winepreloader 64 crashed" and doesn't launch. However sometimes it works. Anyone think they could help? Or if this isn't the right community, please point me to the right one. I really want to play modded-

Dying Light has no sound in intro video, but has in game when running native, works without issue with Proton except it needs ~20 minutes to launch
As the title says.
Tried with various Proton versions, including GE-Proton 9.5.
Any fix for no audio in intro video on native, or long launch times with Proton?

recent update to fedora 40 breaks some games
I recently update to Fedora 40 and I install the propetary nvidia drivers following the rpmfusion guide. When i try to launch Dark and Darker the error asking for a dx11 popups.
Any guide on how to fix it? for context when I run this command:
vulkaninfo | grep VK_KHR_surface; nvidia-smi | grep "Driver Version"
Output:
DRM kernel driver 'nvidia-drm' in use. NVK requires nouveau.

fallout 2 extremely slow, unplayable (proton)
got wine, lutris, proton experimental, all that good stuff. installed fallout 2 on steam and even the main menu is unplayable and runs in what appears to be slow motion. no idea where to even begin troubleshooting. extremely new to all of this.
on a shitty HP pavilion g6 notebook laptop with an integrated AMD graphics card. i have already tried half life 1 and it runs smooth as butter, but it had native support, no proton or lutris or wine or whatever was needed, so i'm sure the problem lies with one of those rather than the game itself.
EDIT: on linux mint cinnamon 21.3

Impossible to enable gamescope on lutris
Hello,
I'm having an issue with Lutris and configuring Gamescope.
Gamescope is installed properly, and my NVIDIA drivers are up to date.
When I run the command 'gamescope -w 1280 -h 720 -W 1920 -H 1080 --fsr vkcube', it works, which means Gamescope is configured correctly.
However, I can't activate it within Lutris, and I'm going crazy trying to understand why. Does anyone have a solution?

Baldur's Gate 3 Crashing
Hey all. I've seen a few of these but nothing super recent. I'm trying to get Baldur's Gate 3 to work on my machine. I've tried a few different proton versions but I'm still getting severe crashes. Stats below:
OS: Arch Linux x86_64
Kernel: 6.8.9-arch1-2
DE: Plasma 6.0.4
WM: kwin
CPU: Intel i5-10400 (12) @ 4.300GHz
GPU: AMD ATI Radeon RX 5600 OEM
Memory: 16GB
I've used protons 8, 9, experimental and ge.
It crashes before the menu if I use vulkan so I'm using DirectX 11.
If I let the opening cutscene or any pre-rendered cutscene play, it crashes in the following loading screen. If I skip the cutscene, it will sometimes work for a bit but crash shortly after. I've been able to briefly play the opening level on my longest run but it crashed while starting the first combat.
I've turned all graphics settings to a minimum and it's still crashing. Is there any kind of fix for this?

Play already installed Fallout 3 on Linux
Hi there,
I was wondering if anybody tried to play Fallout 3 on GNU/Linux.
This is my situation: I already installed it on Windows, on a separate partition; I use Kubuntu 24.04 and I've tried Steam with Proton, PlayOnLinux/Wine. It happens that Fallout's launcher appears, but says that the game isn't installed.
Any chance to start the game without re-installing it?

(Linux Mint) cannot for the life of me get GoT to actually be playable
Behold, the wonders of modern technology
for some reason almost nothing loads in, the menu's look fine, but for some reason the only things that load in are shader related things and the skybox, that is all, the rest just does not work, the game runs well, not that i can see much and i don't know what to do, does anyone have similar problems? or anyone know how to fix this?
GPU: nvidia 3060
CPU: I7 10700
RAM: 16GB
Version: Linux Mint 21.3 Virginia
Nvidia Driver: nvidia-driver-535 (recommended version)
i'm new to linux please don't be mean if its a simple fix.

../src-wine/dlls/winevulkan/loader_thunks.c Line: 3750 Crash in Unreal Engine games on ArchLinux.
As of late when playing some games they will randomly crash with the error ../src-wine/dlls/winevulkan/loader_thunks.c Line: 3750. This includes Persona 3 Reload and Pacific Drive, two Unreal Engine games I have been playing.
I am on ArchLinux KDE Plasma Wayland, using an AMD Radeon 6700 XT. An AMD 5 4500 and 32GB of Ram.
So far the only solution I have found is to use AMDVLK instead of vulkan-radeon to run the games, however this only delays the crashes which happen seemingly at random. I have attempted to change proton versions, reinstall the games and even reinstalled Archlinux itself.
Does anyone else suffer from this problem and how can I fix it?

NVK driver gets DRM Format Modifiers to work with Gamescope in Mesa 24.1
Opinions on the GeForce NOW FlatPak?
I had a rocky start but after changing a bunch of options it has become pretty OK. It's pretty interesting as you can add your Steam library and then jump in (although free has queues and 1 quick ad) and start playing.
Sadly it seems the default options are poorly chosen as before I changed them I had crazy input lag and the game would go in slo-mo (not an fps drop) and the speed up...
I have my XBOX Series X controller connected via bluetooth and it was detected and worked in both the app and games without any issues!
So yeah, what do people think? The free option is worth checking out IMO!
