I will try and reinstall lutris but I have been having a lot of issues woth it. do you reccomend the kde store version or native? I’ve been usimg native amd it just doesn’t want to work with epic or gog. Hell I couldn’t get it working with silent hill 2 enhanced edition. (it refused to launch)

EDIT: I am quite the fool and didn’t uncheck “show installed games only” egg on my face

nvidia proprietary drivers and I am getting similar performance on x11 and wayland.

I did not move the symlink and compat data. I did delete the compat data with protontricks and move the game to my ext4 partition (the partition Linux is installed on). Still the same bad performance.

I am using ntfs-3g I will try switching it to ntfs3

Nah I am using a desktop:

3070

Ryzen 7 3700x

16gb of RAM

to move the compatdata and sysmlink do I paste the command as is if steam is installed natively in the default location?

$ mkdir -p ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata $ ln -s ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata /media/gamedisk/Steam/steamapps/

this will be my final straw solution. I am gonna try to get the games from stuttering on my ext4 drive (it’s happening there too) then test the ntfs drive with btfrs.

Damn. Well this train will chug along then ;-;

EDIT: just tested and it seems performance just gets worse the longer I play.

EDIT 2: I lied it actually is betyer with another non steam game after playing for a while and restarting.

I am using proton to run them.

I moved the game to my ext4 partition and still the same terrible performance. I just booted them on windows and My assesment was wrong. I am actually getting around 100 fps (windows) and 60fps and below (linux).

I will be updating the post to reflect it accordingly.

does windows support btrfs? I am dualbooting and would like to use the drive between opersting systems.

also i am using proton, does it also not play nice with ntfs?

you solved it! so I was doing some testing and The Outlast Trials actually runs great! However Deadlock must have a memory leak with proton or something because that seems to be the only game gradually dropping frames like that. Thank you so much

I know you refrenced Bigfish but I didn’t see a comment from them. Thank you both!

I can finally use arch btw ;)

I’ve heard that the Nouveau drivers are not well optimized for gaming and that sticking with proprietary is better (🤮) or the limited open source drivers they officially released. Are you currently gaming on Nouveau drivers?

This is a shining example proving that games don’t need to die. Especially if you’re a company that is completely uninterested in pursuing an IP any further. When I read that they were going to post the server tools and a new client on itch I was over the moon.

Proletariat took the best approach possible with Spellbreak, whereas iron galaxy… Fuck them. The community was actively trying to reverse engineer Rumbleverse to get it running again and they shut it down. They also seem completely uninterested in bringing Rumbleverse back. (Thankfully there are still ways to self host it, it’s just not as clean as it could have been).

Whenever you hear someone say it would take too much effort to give the community tools, point them to Spellbreak. Hell It would be commendable even if the company didn’t give communities tools but didn’t actively shut down any revival projects.

Games are art and I’m sure plenty of devs that worked on these live service games would have loved to keep working on them, but their employer told them to stop. I’m sure there are plenty of devs that would love to see their game continue to live on, but their voice doesn’t matter because they aren’t the decision makers. So much time and manpower just thrown out the window.

Proletariat, thank you. You are one of the good ones.

birthdate of course! everyone knows you can’t lie about your birthday!

Something something, broken clock something twice a day.

highly reccomend Grayjay and Freetube. Futo claims to be foss but it is only source viewable (my apologies having a brain fart and cannot remember the actual term.) which to my knowledge means you can see the source code but not redistribute it. They ask for a one time $10 payment but the app functions the exact same with or without payment. Grayjay does not have a desktop application but they are looking for someone with experience to develop one. Freetube is open source and contains extra addons like de arrow and watching from invidious instances along with a desktop and mobile application. It’s UI is less appealing than Grayjay ( at least personally) but it’s the only way I watch youtube on PC now and I use Grayjay on mobile. Both of these contain sponsorblock too! ;)

If you watch YouTube on an android TV you can sideload smart tube TV, which is ad free as well. While I personally don’t reccomend it you can sign in with your yt account on both grayjay and smart tube to impket subscriptions.

If you are looking for a solution for YouTube TV… Well… You may need to sail the 7 seas and live with not watching live (unless others have a solution for this.

Fuck Google.

Can it possibly run simultaneously?

How would I go about using conduit instead of synapse for matrix?

Do I need to remove casaos to use yunohost?

Add a new VR headset to that list. Since the FTC has done away with non compete clauses the man went ahead and announced he will show off his new headset this August (I think it has a military focus as well). So many VR influencers were salivating in the comments of his post.

I find it frustrating that people give this man credit for jumpstarting VR when if he hadn’t Sony probably would have. They were expetimenting with VERY similar tech around the time he was.

If anything we should attribute Luckey to the contamination of the industry. If it wasn’t for his choice to sell to facebook the landscape might have been a little bit greener. Most definitely more growing pains for the tech but I do think we would have seen more open hardware. Hell, maybe Valve would have found it necessary to pick up the reigns. It’s been said the Deckard may not release because they don’t find it necessary with steam link on quest. (Not confirmed obviously).

Fuck Anduril.
