zerdekahu OP ,

Oh wow, I downloaded that old patched version (Standalone-1.0.36.344) looking at the install script and it seems to be working correctly!

I guess when I tried installing it from Lutris it automatically used the other method, which downloads the latest version of the Rockstar Launcher that seems to be broken.

Now I need to wait about 2 hours to see if GTAV works correctly, but this is awesome, thank you very much!

Heroic had the same problem for me, I think it’s because it installs the latest Rockstar Launcher.

I’m actually using Bottles. What I needed is the Rockstar Launcher installer that is patched and hosted by Lutris. This one:

zerdekahu OP ,

Thank you for the help, but it seems that the Rockstar Launcher already took care of that. It installs all the needed dependencies at the start.

It runs online fine too.

The only three problems I’m seeing are:

  • Rockstar overlay not showing the mouse cursor.
  • Inconsistent frame timing (or whatever is called). It doesn’t run as smooth as it should.
  • Anisotropic filtering seems to not work. I don’t see any difference with it off or x16. On Windows I remember I needed to force it with the AMD options.

[Guide] Everything you need to know about gaming on Linux (popcar.bearblog.dev)

Hi everyone, I just finished writing a guide on everything you need to know in order to game on Linux. It covers Proton (Steam play), using Heroic Launcher (with Wine-GE), and all sorts of tidbits and tips I wish people had told me earlier. I hope this can be useful to someone out there!...

“Note: I don’t recommend installing the Flatpak version of Steam. It has some issues specific to Flatpak, and makes your Steam files difficult to reach which can be annoying. Use your package manager instead.”

What issues? I’ve been usin the Flatpak for more than a year without issues, both on Silverblue and on Arch. On the other side I had games not running with the version on the repos with Arch and Nobara.

And difficult to reach files how? Just add a shortcut on Files or Dolphin to the Steam folder for easy navigation.

Edit: saying not to use the Flatpak version is like saying not to use the Steam runtime.

zerdekahu ,

Input not working comes from people not installing the steam-devices package, it doesn’t matter if you are using the Flatpak or the repo version (for example the magnificent ublue distro comes with that rules added by default). For using steam you don’t need to change any permissions on the Flatpak. And about the drivers, you can use the Mesa beta channel Flatpak if you want to have the latest.

Also, the Flatpak works perfectly with mangohud, vkbasalt, gamescope plus everything is containerised and doesn’t litter your home folder.

Immutable distros are the future now, and practically excluding them from your guide doesn’t makes sense to me.

It runs butter smooth.

Now I need to try mods. Anything that stands out, like Arcane Dimensions on Quake 1?
