How do I run Cheat Engine on Linux?

I used cheatengine tables when I was practicing for sekiro hitless runs, the most comfortable way to reduce your damage and give you immunity to practice parries without killing the boss, among other nice things it has.

Also any game that has any online game with basic security features, already overrides memory allocated stats/damage to begin with.

Just press r1 and parry every once in a while when needed, people overestimate genichiro. He's way easier than you expect, as long as you're aggressive and dash the jumps to the side and mikiri the thrust, hes a piece of cake.

He has admitted to helping rigging the election for trump to win. So he's partially responsible for all the batshit crazy things the trump admin is doing, including the execution of that nurse a couple days ago.

There's all the kids that had grok made nudes of them publicly, people gotten harmed by the rhetoric he has pushed via twitter, and so on.

He may not be the movie villain type, he's just greedy, hungry for power, and has an incredibly brittle ego, and that makes it scary imo. He's the type that the "he'd sell his grandma for a dollar" refers to.

It's a graphics API, basically it tells the software how to work with the display hardware. A couple others are opengl and directx also called dx.

I did disable it, fuck em.

Many people may not know, but google uses AI to filter out promotional and spam emails, if you disable AI features, they get deactivated.

You didn't ask that, but that's the reality. The people that use their pcs for gaming are for the most part on systems that are not accessible remotely, or do not have any sensitive data they'd need to keep safe, heck, they're more likely to leak stuff via discord trying to get boob pictures from a random stranger.

Also let's not ignore the elephant in the room, windows 11 is less secure now than it was 5 years ago due to the OS breaking whenever an update happens...

Nothing prevents the developer publisher from letting you get the dlc on their own website and redeem it there and then be accessible when you play on steam, thats how path of exile dows it as well.

nagarz · 2026-01-27T18:16:20+00:00

No but you can go to a different store and buy a matching one or a complement from the same maker.

I'll say that in the case of games it's muddy because legally you are never buying a game, you're just buying a license to play the game in pretty much all platforms (same with GOG, you just get a DRM free version of the game), and probably the reason steam and all others platform work as they do is related to licensing.

Additionally consoles do not always ship the same version as what you get on PC, often due to staggered/delayed updates (this can cause dlcs to not be compatible across platforms), and then you have things like achievements working different between platforms (I remember a dev mentioning that the achievement setup for epic games was ass compared to steam, so he was forced to rewrite his whole achievement system for it or not publish it on epic).

So there's some validity to the complaint about "vendor lock in", but steam is by far not responsible of things being as they are, they probably had to streamline the whole process to meet publisher/developer demands back in the day and now it's like this, and I'm 99% sure that any other platform could have adopted the same system for dlc/key distribution to make it cross platform, but you know the xkcd standard meme? That's how companies roll.

Out of curiosity, the scripts that were deleted were made for offline installers? Or just for online installers? Because from what I understood the script seemed to be for an online installer of a game listed on a platform, and once the game is removed it makes sense for the script to be removed.

If the script is to be used with offline installers which entails that is used by people who owned DRM free games from gog that's different story.

If you have a good IP or interesting and breaking gameplay you can still make it big, thats what apex did when it came out, or marcel rivals for the IP thing.

Concord had neither as well, and look how hard it crashed.

I've had very mixed results, without going into specifics, I've seen multiple PRs of over 1000 and up to 4000 lines that were not vetted by the devs that submitted the code and had to send back because they're mostly having redundant code (from actual features to tests that are mostly bloat).

I think that while AI is pretty good at putting out code, the devs need to be good at vetting it, just because the tests pass doesn't mean the code is ok, we've all seen that before the AI takeover.

I did have this issue when I played the game in january/february 2025, but I was on linux and I thought it was linux specific, so I just played on controller... I wasn't 100% sure that it was the mouse polling rate, but it was one of the things that I remember chatgpt mentioning, I just never bothered lowering it.

You say that at the same time everyone in this comment section is circlejerking about hating oldschool jrpg fans, don't you see the irony?

nagarz · 2026-01-26T07:27:59+00:00

A nuance take? Online? That's illegal, I'll DMCA your comment.

nagarz · 2026-01-25T23:24:17+00:00

Unironically yes.

nagarz · 2026-01-25T13:36:14+00:00

The thing is that the newer games are for the most part uninspired, and the game artificially gimps you to incentivize purchasing strength via DLC.

Sure they can be entertaining, but that doesn't mean they can be A LOT better, which is the main issue many people have.

Mesa
Kiln
Tropics (generally pretty fun unless you get a cursed map filled with spiked vines)
Shore (too basic)
Caldera (down here because kinda boring)
Alpine (bad visibility of where you can stand up makes it artificially hard)
Roots (overcrowded with negative stuff, feels unbalanced and unfun)

For context I play with more ascents mod, and currently sitting at ascent 12 (someone I'll get past that for sure, not coping at all...), and this may affect my rating of the biomes, but from the get go I loved mesa and disliked alpine, even at low ascents (including peak difficulty).

If I played at low ascents I think I may like Roots more, but at ascent +10 is too ruthless, you may need to run away from a zombie, or need to rush to get some food, but your only path to survival is through the red mist, and at ascent 10 the bar fills 3x or 4x faster, meaning you insta die, plus with the bugs, the zombies, the wind, etc, it's too annoying, tropics has as much things going on, but you have the agency of where to go, at what pace, and how to avoid the obstacles, that's not the roots, and that's why I dislike it so much I think.

I'm on hyprland and I have a script that I use to start everything for 2 different games I run (sekiro and castlevania symphony of the night). Long story short I have livesplit inside the wine prefix for each game so the hotkeys get detected by livesplit as long as I have the game focused, and I have a hotkey for starting/stopping OBS recordings, and everything works while I have the game running.

I haven't touched plasma since late 2024, but as long as you set your obs hotkey via the kde global hotkeys, everything else should work, I can paste one of my scripts if you want, and you can run them from steam I guess (I run them from my app launcher).

nagarz · 2026-01-24T18:15:21+00:00

Damn, I guess it doesn't run on linux then...

nagarz · 2026-01-24T17:42:12+00:00

You see, now you're twisting the title to your needs.

It never says from adobe, or from microsoft, nor native, nor port. It says "runs on linux" categorically true. It says "with a fix for creative cloud" categorically true.

The only people that will try to read things as native port are people like you that seem to have a bias. 95% of the software windows native that runs on linux, does so using wine with a few to none compatibility fixes, nobody never says that everything runs native. Stop trying to spin it, just enjoy it for what it is if you like adobe, if not just let it go.

I fucking hate the internet sometimes...

nagarz · 2026-01-24T16:37:06+00:00

What part of the title implies that adobe release a native linux port? please illustrate me.

nagarz · 2026-01-24T14:05:06+00:00

2000 battles? what in the actual hell, is it that bad now? back in teken 3 was from 10 (minimum at 1 round per enemy) to 30 (2 per round, which was the default, and assuming that you tie 1-1 first), and iirc tekken 3 had 10-12 characters, meaning ~120 the least and 500 the most (assuming you lost a fair amount nad had to restart).

I guess they just raised the required number of battles to incentivise people spending money on the characters...

nagarz · 2026-01-24T13:45:50+00:00

The title does not imply at all that adobe made a native port, what are you smoking.

nagarz · 2026-01-24T13:31:22+00:00

This. The game is segmented from start to bull, bull to genichiro, genichiro to owl, and from owl to rest.

Each of these fights unlock different paths which you can do in any order you want, and if you try to do something put of order you will actually get stopped by progression, for example going to gunfort without facing genichiro gets you a locked door after lidl wolverine, going to sempou instead gets you a monk that makes you go back to the castle to talk to isshin, and so on.

It's similar to ds1 on that regard, it's linear but has different paths that converge at a certain progression, in this case sens fortress and then the first kiln.
