Nice! Looking forward to the next Unigine benchmark.

matt , in Gamingonlinux is introducing his presence on Mastodon in a relatively funny way.
@matt@lemmy.world avatar

GamingOnLinux has been on Mastodon for ages, Nov 21 2016 in fact!

But with the recent migration to Mastodon, I guess it couldn’t hurt to let people know you’re there already.

CriticalMiss OP ,

Fair enough, I don’t use Mastodon at all, I just hopped in to see what all the fuss was about and saw this funny post.

GoinEasy9 ,

I’ve been following him since joining linux.pizza a while back. Interesting (I’m a new user) that Lemmy is part of the Fediverse.

I use a wired Xbox One S controller for most games, sometimes a wired Switch Pro controller for Nintendo games. Haven’t noticed any latency with them, myself.

Yeah also got a wired Xbox One S controller and it works great

Menachem , in Gamingonlinux is introducing his presence on Mastodon in a relatively funny way.

In our current unparalleled enterprise, refusal to switch platforms is simply a refusal to grow—an insistence on watching ads, if you will. Did the Digg user refuse to Reddit? It did not. It crept forth boldly while its brethren remained in the blackest ocean abyss, with lidless eyes forever staring at the dark, ignorant and doomed despite their eternal vigilance. Would we model ourselves on the Facebook user?

I use an 8bitdo Pro 2 in wired mode and it works great.

0xeb , in recommended gaming controller

I recently got the 8bitdos new 2.4ghz controller (the cheap one) and so far happy with it, just needed to make sure a had the correct drivers for it

oscar , in recommended gaming controller

8bitdo ultimate (bluetooth with charging dock) is amazing, so that’s what I would recommend.

I also like Xbox controllers but I’ve had a lot of issues with them breaking, so I don’t recommend them.

ono , (edited ) in recommended gaming controller

DualSense and DualShock 4 are both great in my experience. I’ve read that input lag can be problematic with certain bluetooth modules, but is fixable by using a different one. (My inexpensive USB bluetooth dongle works very well with both controllers.)

zaphodb2002 , in Proton compatibility

I think you may need to clear out ~/.config/steam or similar to get rid of the initial install. Might just be ~/.steam.

In my experience the Flatpack version causes more issues than it fixes. Try installing it through Nobara’s package manager instead (I think Nobara uses dnf?)

I don’t use Nobara though so someone can correct me if I’m wrong.

Stiltonfondu ,

I second this. On fedora I had a few too many issues with the flatpak and all were solved by switching to the rpm/native version

I tried installing it through the package manager originally and it wasnt able to get past installing directx.

Funnily enough regardless of what directories it sees, a reinstall of steam allowed protonup-qt to see that ME:LE was using GE-Proton 8-5 and is currently working!

Amazing… I’ve never had smoothness like this on this machine. I am getting the same performance out of 1440p that I used to get on 1080p, and at 1080p it feels like I’m playing it on my desktop. I never thought it would be usable again, this is crazy. The old girl’s 1050 is still chugging along and getting a clean 60fps.

If I can get my main games all functional on here I might actually consider changing my desktop over as well.

@hschen@sopuli.xyz avatar

it should be just ~/.local/share/Steam and like 2 or 3 other .steam files left in your homefolder. if that doesnt work you might wanna delete the config files for ProtonQt which if is a flatpak would be in ~/.var/app

yrmitz , in recommended gaming controller

I have 8bitdo 2.4hz wireless pad and it is amazing. Works out of box on Linux.

SUNGOLDSV , in recommended gaming controller

I’ve been using 8bitdo SN 30 Pro+, it’s pretty good with standard games and also it’s gyro helps with Switch Emulation

Mawkey , (edited ) in Steam On Linux Use Steady For June, ~40% Of Linux Gamers Are Using The Steam Deck

I'll be joining the Linux team soon! My new parts arrive in a couple of days and I will only use Linux from here on out, except at work unfortunately.

Thanks! May not get around to actually trying this game anytime soon but it does look interesting
