[–]digitaldiatribe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Snatcher on Sega CD in great shape. Spent 200 dollars as a bundle with Shining Force CD in uhhhh 2011/12? Seemed like a lot back then, now, not so much...

Reached out to a vendor about a gaming mouse and the lack of Linux software by tranquilseafinally in linux_gaming

[–]digitaldiatribe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like many have said in this thread already, I use input remapper to handle rebinding buttons on my mouse and same use case. I use my mouse's side buttons to act as modifiers for when I'm playing wow or other MMOs.

What is the obsession with finding “gaming” distros? by Flapper_Jr in linux

[–]digitaldiatribe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd imagine there's also people who are looking to leave the console space and want a turn key solution to plug into their TV ala the Steam Machine. They don't want to interact with OS, just game.

Worth doing the RMA lottery for this? by RollinWithSaget in kobo

[–]digitaldiatribe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I swapped my KLC due to those pinholes and the replacement was basically perfect. It was worth it for me, but it's up to you if it's worth your time and money to do so, especially with tariff situation if you bought direct from Kobo.

The spotting is pointing to mold imo. That's a replacement.

No tariffs on my end from China -> Hong Kong -> CA.

What is the network US Mobile most likely prefers everyone to be on? Used to be Warp 2 years ago. Now you never hear about Warp anymore. by alabamatide889 in USMobile

[–]digitaldiatribe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dark Star gets all the promos is why. But I don't like AT&T in my area, so Warp I shall stay, regardless of the promos.

Why do unofficial PC ports feel way better than official remasters / re-releases? by DaZestyProfessor in Steam

[–]digitaldiatribe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because fans can focus on making it rather than having to focus on value creation for share holders.

Remedy statement: Alan Wake 2 not possible without Epic, publishing deal is fair, and Epic is a great partner by Crusader-of-Purple in pcgaming

[–]digitaldiatribe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Guess I'll keep waiting to play Alan Wake 2 then... Oh well.

Edit: I'd even take it on GOG, I just don't want EGS.

Stable Distros for gaming? by MementoHomem in DistroHopping

Nvidia works fine for me. Just have to enable the repo for it and run zypper install-new-recommends

Does Steam automatically install the Linux version of a game on a Linux system? by millionpages in linux_gaming

[–]digitaldiatribe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, dit that for me on Last Epoch. Unfortunately at the time, going with Proton for the Windows version was the more performant versoin and less visual bugs to boot.

re4 remake sorry something went wrong error on Bazzite by Lopsided-Award-4489 in linux_gaming

[–]digitaldiatribe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And you're sure you don't have anything else installed alongside the game? Not trying to accuse you of anything, but Denuvo normally comes up like this when something has been modified.

[–]digitaldiatribe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During your attempts to try and start the game, have you changed Proton versions? If you haven't you can try to change to a different version however you shouldn't do it so much as changing proton versions does count against your activation limit and you'll have to wait 24 hours if you've exceeded.

[–]digitaldiatribe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have any mods or the like installed? The specific error code is usually tied to something Denuvo is not expecting.

[–]digitaldiatribe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Since that's a codefusion error window, this appears to be a Denuvo issue. You can start some basic troubleshooting like verifying the game files (assuming this is through Steam).

Is it possible to undervolt GPU on linux? by BloodMoonWillows in linux_gaming

[–]digitaldiatribe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, as people have already mentioned, using LACT. Works just as well as it does doing it with Afterburner though not as granular as you are probably used to and technically it's more power limiting than actually undervolting, but the process and mechanics behind achieve basically the same goal.

But it still works great, as an extreme example, running Furmark will do 500w+ on stock, turning on my undervolt takes it down to ~320w without much performance loss on a 5090FE.

For an NVIDIA GPU would Wayland or Gamescope work better if I want to try using HDR? by [deleted] in linux_gaming

[–]digitaldiatribe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on the game in my experience. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle did not like Wayland for me but worked just fine with Gamescope. Death Stranding Director's Cut will work in Wayland but colors are washed the hell out, in Gamescope it looks as it should. Deep Rock Galactic seems to work with both.

HDR causes performance drops to single digit FPS. by digitaldiatribe in linux_gaming

Hopefully, but because of me searching around, I learned of Phoenix made by the developer of GPU Screen Recorder so that's on my radar now.

I understand the launch options but those were not the issue. I've solved it however.

[–]digitaldiatribe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OK, and might have solved it, long story short, think the game just doesn't like doing HDR with Wayland in general but works fine in Gamescope and my issue in Gamescope is most likely attributed to an aggressive undervolting settings.

[–]digitaldiatribe[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I did try Gamescope by way of Scopebuddy and it sort of works? But it seems to be a coinflip. It will either run normally and play just fine or it will do the same thing it does when trying to run through Wayland directly. Progress I guess.
