why is a russian website posted to an english language community

verdantbanana OP , 11 hours ago (edited 11 hours ago)

because English users and all other language users use it as well to play games

Cyberpunk 2077 is what am currently playing using this launcher because it is the only one that works and allows all the settings we prefer such as raytracing on top of good consistent fps

if you notice my other post on here was AdaptiveCPP which is also what use with portproton to get good fps

talking Cyberpunk with raytracing and medium settings on 1080p with an Intel arc A750 8GB 70+/- fps

Linux Gaming works but only with a big toolbox packed with good tools

most modern browsers should have a translate button readily available

great. a tutorial in russian. very useful.

verdantbanana OP , 11 hours ago

there is a translate button built into modern browsers

and since startwine has not been cutting it lately portproton has been the only option

yes English developed options exist but are not on par such as Faugus Launcher or the Heroic Games Launcher

our computer repair shop has tested all the available game launchers for Linux on modern games

A software with zero support because the developers and the community speak only Russian. Thanks you, but no. If you want to go international, use English.

Google Translate app available for phones allows anyone to read any language with your camera and along with modern browsers being able to translate virtually any language the world is getting even smaller and innovations larger than life

What about the umu-launcher supported by GE?

verdantbanana OP , 11 hours ago

Faugus Launcher is a frontend for the umu-launcher

it does not have the same performance and your fps in games will show it as well as graphics

SolarPunker , 10 hours ago

umu, if I’m not mistaken, should be adopted in the future by all major gaming software like Lutris

verdantbanana OP , 10 hours ago

umu has great potential but is not polished enough for an end user like portproton is at this point in time

would be like comparing Nvidia with Intel

What is PortProton doing that could increase performance? At the end of the day, won’t this tool just set up a wineprefix for your game and then launch it using wine/proton, just like other tools of this nature?

verdantbanana OP , 8 hours ago

does the same thing the dwarf compressed .sh game starters do

they do what you said but with very specific instructions, settings, and tweaks you would otherwise have to manually configure

mpv without a frontend vs using celluloid as a frontend for mpv for example

I don’t understand, how can you make it easier to run games then pressing start on Steam?

verdantbanana OP , 2 hours ago

nonSteam games, pirated games, maybe your setup or you yourself needs different settings for whatever reason, console emulation, and more

from the above link:

It is based on Valve’s version of WINE (Proton) and its modifications (Proton GE). It includes a set of scripts combined with wine-proton itself, a Steam Runtime Sniper container with the addition of ported versions of MANGOHUD (displaying useful information in the game window: FPS, FrameTime, CPU, GPU, etc.) and vkBasalt (improving graphics in games, very good in conjunction with FSR, DLSS) + many already configured optimizations for maximum performance.

One-click automatic installation (on the AUTO-install tab) of popular launchers such as: WGC, Epic Games, BattleNET, Origin, EVE Online, RockStar, Ubisoft connect, League of Legends and many others has been implemented.

For console game lovers, there are many console emulators available (under the EMULATORS tab): PPSSPP, Citra, Cemu, ePSXe, MAME and many more…
