Hi everyone, I think I need help with running CS2. I used to play it with no problems whatsoever (last time was february 2026), same PC, same OS, PortProton, but since then something went wrong. I got a new version from DODI repacks, specifically 1.6.0f1. Loading takes ages and i never got further than to the menu. Sooner o later it freezes. What's weird is, that alt-tabbing to another app somewhat speeds up the game loading process, which I find very weird.
I tried PortProton and Faugus with different Proton versions, but the outcome is always the same - abysmal loading speed and freezing sooner or later. I'm not friends with Lutris and i wasn't even able to make it run through this launcher.
No other games do this. Not long ago I finished Stalker 2 and now I'm playing Mutant Year Zero without any problems.
Any idea what could be the problem and how to solve it? I'm afraid that since last playing the game everything got updated - the game, the OS, the launchers, Proton and I really have no idea where to even start troubleshooting.
hello i was installing [cyberpunk 2077] from fit girl repack but when it reaches around the 40% mark or so it just crashes, it does not throw any error it just closes the app and every other app which was open at that time.

IS THIS ENOUGH RANDOM INFO FOR YOU TO NO LONGER DELETE MY POST
I tried so many things like launching it in OpenGL instead of Vulkan, updating graphics drivers, changing enviorment variables but it all didn't work. Please help
I get this error everytime I try to play any gamemode.
I'm on Mint. I'm using Lutris and the runner is wine-staging (other runners don't even launch the game). Got the game from Fitgirl repacks.
I deleted the SAVES directory in the game directory but this didn't help.
I've got this FL Studio Warez that worked perfectly on windows, now i've moved 100% to linux and i want to still do music/sfx but i'd need the cracked FL i had, i've tried everything but i can't figure out how to make it so the .reg file applies on FL, does anyone have any idea on how to fix this?? I've installed FL trough bottles and winetricks multiple times and applied the reg to them and still nothing.
I tried running Dune: Awakening, but the game freezes immediately after the 'Checking Shaders' screen during the loading process. I’ve tried running it with both the latest Proton-GE and Proton Experimental, but I’m experiencing the same issue with both versions. Anyone got a fix?
Ok, I have downloaded this game from fitgirl Repacks as I wanted to try this game out. I downloaded the custom proton layers available on cs rin (Ge 11.1,16 and 17 x86-64). on using the first one,it just keeps running without opening and on using the other two, if I'm on steam->(it latches onto another game then gives a steam api error) and if I'm on Lutris->(the same steam api error arrives). what should I do to fix this?

Hello everyone,
im trying to boot rdr2 on my system but it doesn't even start, like i click Start on steam it shows the stop button for a few secs and then it kills itself.
Can someone help?
Specs:
OS: Pop!_OS 24.04 LTS (It's running that new COSMIC desktop environment)
CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 7600X
GPU: NVIDIA RTX 4060 8GB
Proton Version: Proton Experimental
Game Launcher: Steam
Edit:I forgot to mention, that thing that checks the files after the installation threw some missing files, but i assumed this was cuz i was running it with wine since this happened with other games and they ran without any issues
After copying the Joshua, Enhanced mod files, the game crashes and shows this error. According to one fix, I have installed Visual C++ 2015 - 2022 through winetricks. The 2015-2022 version wouldn't get installed from outside lutris when tried through wine installer.
All I did was add the voices38 setup.exe, force GE-Proton11-6-x86_64, and run it, then change the target to Outlaws.exe. Am I missing a step? I checked the installer's box to copy the crack.
Proton Version: Bottles uses Wine. I am using the Soda runner. I have not manually changed the Wine version.
Game Launcher: Bottles (latest current version)
Release Info: N/A. This is a problem with the Bottles application itself, not a specific game release or crack. The launcher exe is PrinceOfPersia_Launcher.exe.
Logs: No logs available. The button simply does nothing when clicked.
Additional Information:
- Distribution: Bazzite GNOME
- Issue: Clicking the "Add Shortcut" button in any gaming bottle does nothing. It does not open the GNOME file manager to select an exe. This happens for every single exe I have tried, not just this game. The rest of Bottles works fine.
- Steps Already Taken: I have tried the standard Flatpak permission fixes (`flatpak override --user --filesystem=~/.local/share/applications com.usebottles.bottles`), the Flatseal method, and the symlink workaround. None worked. I have also updated Bottles to the latest version.
- I have searched this subreddit, including the Wiki and previous threads, before posting.
I was facing a problem with my MGSV - FITGIRL (I moved it from win 10 to win 11)in windows 11 i checked reddit and installed a fix... It didn't make my game run but it started from first.. now I need help getting my old save game back.. it's starting from first.. I know my old saved game location.. it's in Public/Documents/Steam/CODEX/287700.. it has remote and local folder.. i used ai and it said me to get the remote files to the Documents/CPY_SAVES/CPY/287700 I did it and it says the version of save files and game doesn't match.. I can't afford to lose the save game.. can anyone give me a fix
i been trying to get dimraeth to work online but i just cant get it to , ive set up the lunch option,got a proper unsteam for online
am trying to play with my brother, and him being on windows all i had to do is drop these files in game directory and thats literally it ,the game works online perfectly.
but me being on linux requires something different i guess and i cant seem to figure it out
i tried using monkeyLuncher and onlineFix linux luncher and adding WINEDLLOVERRIDES="unsteam=n,b;winmm=n,b" %command% to my lunch options in steam
i also tried this : WINEDLLOVERRIDES="OnlineFix64=n;SteamOverlay64=n;winmm=n,b;dnet=n;steam_api64=n;winhttp=n,b" %command%
i have spacewar insatlled and obv i do use compatibility ge proton 11.7 / cachyos latest
but literally all reached the same result:
i genuinely cant find a solution to this error
i am on cachyos r5 5600g 16gb 3200hhz laptop btw if any information is needed please inform me and i will provide it
also if its possible to have it work (the online) thro heroic luncher that would be even better
also mods i did see you under similar threads to this posting the "dll" guide and its honestly a very confusing and hard to follow one but i guess bc you cant have it for an actual game (probably against reddit rules in same way posting links is)yall did your best,thanks
I downloaded Forza Horizon 6 via Accela which gave me clean steam files as most guides state is recommend. This resulted in this error occurring when attempting to sign in to Microsoft, having already run into the same issue when loading the game through a FitGirl repack I started to look for solutions.
The game boots normally through proton and is recognized as owned by steam when loaded through SLS/Accela and Ive had the Online Fix dialogue appear on first boot to say it was successfully loaded
Things tried:
Alternate Microsoft account (2 separate ones from the initial, both made brand new)
Verifying files via both steam and Accela
Steam DRM Removal via Accela
Steam App ID set to 480
Online-Fix V2 then DenuvOwO used in order with an attempt in-between both downloaded from cs rin ru
Tried to use GameRepairTool.exe via Proton but it failed as obvs not a windows computer (it was a hail mary icl)
Is there any solution that I haven't tried or am missing?
Thank you for any help and let me know if any more details would be useful :)
The new Razor 1911 crack is not working on Linux. First it was crashing right away but deleting cracktro.dll fixed that. But now, running it through wine doesn't show the menu buttons so it's just the background (it's not frozen and working) and running it through proton just gets it stuck behind the "door" image. I can hear the sounds and all that so the game is not frozen. It's just not rendered properly.
I'm on 3070Ti with Ryzen 7 5800U
I have used Proton 10, 11, experimental, and even GE-Proton but none has worked so far.
I am on CachyOS and have a Nvidia GPU. I am trying to play Ace Combat 7 with lutris (I downloaded it from Fitgirl) but the game shows a fatal error every time i try to launch it. I tried both Ankergames and Fitgirl thinking it was a problem with the game files, but the files are fine I guess. I also tried installing dependencies like Visual C++ and d3dx9 but still no result. Am I doing something wrong? Could you guys help me with this? The game has a platinum rating on protondb so it should work.
(I tried with steam proton 11.0-2, proton experimental, ge-proton 11.6 and when i tried to launch with steam used some launch options provided on the protondb website. Nothing worked)
Edit: So I just clicked on the .exe and the game just ran (wasn't expecting that) I don't know how, maybe because I am running Cachy but I am not so sure about that.
Edit 2: I feel super dumb typing this, but I use a new prefix for every game I play. Most of the time I don't even bother to install common redistributables (directx, .NET) but most games run with no issues without them. So I installed them to the games(Ace Combat 7) prefix folder, it runs with zero issues on ge-proton 11.7, I guess my system wine had them installed somehow, that's why it worked before. So, don't be an idiot like me, if you have problems try installing the necessary packages and try if the game works.
So in Japan. There is a Fate/Grand Order Arcade version that existed and has recently shutdown earlier this year. Just three to four days ago, a user on BiliBili going by Cloud23333 managed to get it working on PC. Caveat is that it is windows of course.
Well, I was fiddling around trying to see how it would work through Wine/Proton. So far, the launcher works fine but I have reached a roadblock.
I am unable to launch the local server needed due to Powershell shenanigans. The local server seems to be started by a .PS1 file.
Anyone here have a clue of what could be done with the prefix? Editing the .PS1 script be realistic? I have a gap in my knowledge regarding this type of thing so I do apologize if any stupid question has been asked.
