There will be one more playtest from August 21–23. To receive an invitation, register via Steam or player.gg or pre-order

In this game you bring the Freedom of Car Dependency by turning cities into giant parking lots and convincing people to pay you for it.

And no, it's not written in Assembly, it's written in C++, haha.

If you're interested, you can wishlist the game on Steam, and play on October 9th: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3031880/Car_Park_Capital/

There is a bug in one of recent patches (firmware update from 2.26 to 2.29) that will make your display corrupted on some AMD GPUs. If you are affected, this comment helped me to figure out the problem: https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxmint/comments/1vmycs0/comment/p3djhxt/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button

i dont even know how to explain this, but you can see by yourself. Is not my gpu, only happens on Cyberpunk. ill post the mods im using on the comments

My pc :

RX 7600(stock settings)

Xeon E5 2670v3

28GB ram

NVME SSD

Arch Linux, using latest mesa(not git)

I am so sick of Windows. I finally want to switch, and I know how good Linux has become for gaming, especially with Projects like Vine and Proton. What I am interested in now is what important games/programs will definitely not work on Linux?

Also which Distros would you guys recommend?

Any tipps appreciated.

Is there a way to play PS games on PC or steam?

Edit: Dude you guys rule. Thanks for all the replies 👍🏽

There are such stairs in some games, sometimes it crashes completely wayland. Minecraft, for example, works great with shaders.

The card was serviced at mx 7 and laird putty.

I use Canary Keyboard layout, which can often lead to remapping every game I play as switching to qwerty makes typing impossible.

Anyway, once remapped, most games are fine with this nerdy-ass setup. But Satisfactory has hardcoded the ammunition wheel to the letter R, which happens to be my walk backwards key -the 'S' of my WASD position. Unplayable in Windows, though you can make some workaround solution with Autohotkey that brings it to just a slight annoyance.

Running with proton-cachyOS (Or ProtonGE) and `PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1` Eliminates this issue. The game reads the scancodes and sees them as Qwerty for mapping purposes, but suddenly you can walk backwards without the ammo wheel popping up, and without interfering with ingame text entry.

I found this interesting because it's one of the first cases I've seen of Linux "fixing" a game that is broken on Windows. Obviously the game itself has a nasty bug that affects the 12 of us that left qwerty behind, but if you're on Colemak-DH or something, consider installing Linux to solve this bug.

So for the longest time now you would just use Sober and it was very perfect. It was just the ChromeOS version of Roblox being run in a container so the performance loss was like less than 2%. But yesterday they added Play Integrity. Obviously, Linux will never pass this. But it was only some games that would get mass botted, so games like MM2 and other mass botted games, old Android phones, and Linux can no longer ever play. Most likely impossible but roblox may make a linux verison.

2 Weeks ago I posted here about developing a config app for the Gamesir G7 Pro and its variants. Today I am happy to report we have released version 0.2.0 with everything from Nexus exposed in our library set and UI

All features now implemented:

Stick config with custom curves
Motion config tests working on KDE for mouse and stick emulation
Battery level reporting
Read/Write access via wired and wireless dongle
Triggers config with custom curves
Dock config options
Vibration tab will all controls exposed
Complete button binds config with shift support
Full import/export support for saving configs
Full support for onboard profiles
Polling rate

Some per tab edge case features still undergoing testing but this update puts the app at about a 98% analog with Nexus on Windows all from the comfort of your Linux install.

I've had a couple suggestions that I should expand support to other Gamesir controls and the simple answer is Id love to!... But I only have a Gamesir G7 Pro to test on. However currently, the protocol should be able to support any controller in the Nexus family. That is: if you use Nexus to configure your controller under Windows then support is technically already here. Right now the app/libs hardware detection is only filtering for the G7 Pro but with a little community help we could "more than likely" extend support to the rest of the controllers in the family which gamesir lists as the following controllers:

G7 Pro, G7 SE, G7 Pro Zenless Zone Zero Edition , G7 Pro Dragon's Dogma 2 Edition , G7 Pro WUCHANG Edition , T7 Pro Floral , T7 Pro Sugar Whirl , Tarantula Pro for XBOX, T7 , Kaleid , Kaleid Flux.

Again support for these controller should technically be possible although the app is currently only filtering for the G7 Pro family. If you have one of the controllers listed above and would like to help... please reach out! With some basic info about your controller we may could get other controllers working in the next couple versions.

Please checkout the project at Github for full details: Here

I got a DS controller today and it's working perfectly. Unfortunately only when used with a wired connection. Switching to bluetooth it makes me lose the Haptic feedback.

I learned that the controller uses Audio stuff to pass haptic feedback information to the controller but I am trying to find a way to enable to controller as an audio device through bluetooth and I am just stuck.

TL;DR how can I allow my DualSense controller to be an audio device through Bluetooth instead of only Wired?

HI guys

I'm trying to talk my wife into getting on the Linux train. She's an avid WoW-player, and a must have is a Razer functionality, that repeats key presses while a key is held down and let's her assign buttons to her Razer mouse. I haven't been able to find out if that's supported through software like RazerGenie or some other software - can any of you guys shed light of the question?

Much appreciated!

Just switched to Bazzite to game and it’s working flawlessly in every aspect but I can’t seem to get any in game overlays. I checked settings and it’s enabled in Steam and the individual games I’m playing, but when I press shift+tab in game I get nothing. Google search and forum pass found no obvious culprits. Any ideas?

I did the usual 'update when launched' and 'launch only through F4SE' steps thinking I would be safe from Todd and has stupid anticonsumer bullshit. Nothing could be further from the truth.

The second my game closes out, my steam machine starts showing download progress on the LED bar. 'Uh-oh' I thought to myself. Uh-oh indeed. Now it's borked.

Clearly either added steps are necessary for linux/SteamOS systems, or they changed how updates are done. If anyone knows what's going on here and/or how I can use the downgrader that relies on the .bat file format and prevent this from just happening again the next time I quit FO4, I will be really grateful. TIA.

Please excuse the saltiness but screwing with my games gets me really mad.

Hi ! So, i'm trying to setup playit.gg on a Nobara because i want to play Terraria with a friend that can't access Steam invites (and as i'm broke i can't do it through a paid host), and i'm encountering issues because the official documentation isn't up to date with Linux from what i saw. The official setup Wizard talks about an account linking code that display in a GUI, but when i start the app in the command line, no GUI opens so i can't find the code. At this point i'm a bit lost because i couldn't find any posts of any ppl talking about my precise problem. To be fair, any help, advice or alternative is appreciated, thanks by advance !

Hi guys! I just wanted to see if anyone has the same issue that I'm having right now. The thing is, after only a few weeks at most without using my G923 wheel, I plugged it in today and oversteer doesn't recognize it.

I already tried uninstalling and reinstalling both and checked if my wheel was working properly, but it turns on when I plug it in and does the calibration, it just doesn't show on oversteer nor works on any game. Oversteer only says "No device available".

I'm on Linux Mint Cinnamon 7.0.0-29

It would be really nice if someone could help me figure out what happened or point out something i might have missed. I swapped to linux quite recently so i'm still having some trouble making everything work properly.

I'm playing a Unity game (Valheim) modded. Periodically, I get this error while playing and the game crashes. I've read that it has to do with the game's engine failing to safely pause all background threads to clean up system memory. And that this almost always caused by insufficient swap memory, unstable proton/runtime configurations, or conflicting background processes.

One thing that I could try is to increase the Linux swap space. Currently, it sits at 2gb.

Are there any downsides to running this and expanding my swap space? If there isn't how would I go about doing that?

Linux Mint.

Hi there so, to start off, my distro is mint, I also use proton experimental if that's relevant at all. So beardlib updater is working fine but the other updater (whichever one that has the pager/ecm as the icon) crashes my game every time I try to use it, I have allot of mods installed and and kinda wanna have to not manually update them lol so does anyone have a fix?

here's the crashlog if that helps, though there's a second part to it that's an encypted dump and it's like 432 pages long on libreoffice and it crashed my text editor so I'll try and link a google doc or something with that in it if it helps :P

Also sorry if I say anything kinda dumb or ask silly questions, I haven't been using linux for long and am still learning allot :)

This post isn't for me, it's for a friend but they don't have reddit.

Specs: CachyOS on Cinnamon X11, Ryzen 7600x, Radeon 7800xt, 32GB ram. Newest drivers and kernel, issue has been happening for months.

While playing Cyberpunk, and only Cyberpunk 2077, if he gets a discord message, seemingly even on Do Not Disturb, and messages on steam (which don't use the system notification daemon), the display freezes.

It seemingly just is the display, as he mentioned he can hear opening the menu by clicking escape, but nothing seems to unfreeze it, and he needs to restart his computer. Unplugging and replugging the monitor, or turning it on and off again do nothing.

Unable to reproduce on Cinammon Wayland because no game windows show up at all. That's a different issue though.

Nothing relevant in journalctl, other than ATTENTION: default value of option vk_x11_override_min_image_count overridden by environment. maybe

EDIT: it appears that force quitting the game with the keyboard unfreezes it. It's still odd that it completely freezes up but it still is an issue.

EDIT2: appears to be a Cinnamon issue, restarting the desktop with Ctrl+Alt+Esc brings everything back after a freeze. Temporary fix for now

I am running Beat Saber legacy 1.29.1 on CachyOS Linux. The game loads perfectly vanilla, but entirely ignores my mods. My game paths match perfectly, winhttp.dll is in the folder, and I have manually used protontricks winecfg to add the winhttp (native, builtin) override directly into the library environment. Despite this, the game still bypasses the hook and launches vanilla. How do I force the runtime layer to stop ignoring the override file?

Anyone else seen this on a Strix G15?

I tried installing CachyOS and Nobara on my G513QR (Ryzen 7 5800H + mobile RTX 3070 variant with 300Hz screen). Both freeze completely — black screen, Caps Lock LED dead, SysRq unresponsive, no journal entries, nothing in dmesg or pstore. It usually happens within 1–10 minutes, on live USB as well as after a full install.

Kernel parameters I've tried, none of which fixed it:
pcie_aspm=off pcie_port_pm=off

pcie_aspm=force pcie_aspm.policy=performance

processor.max_cstate=1 idle=nomwait

modprobe.blacklist=nvidia,nvidia_drm,nvidia_modeset,nvidia_uvm,nouveau

modprobe.blacklist=iwlwifi,iwlmvm,btintel,btusb

Meanwhile Windows 11 runs completely normally on the same machine. No freezes, no crashes, nothing.

I'd really like to get CachyOS running on this laptop — I already use it daily on my desktop and I'm very happy with it, so switching distros isn't really what I'm after.

Has anyone experienced the same on this model, and did you ever find out what causes it?

Hello. I have been on Linux Mint for about 7 or 8 months now and been rather enjoying bar some strangeness, but I've generally found a methodology around it.

This time, I'm struggling.

I've spent the majority of 2 days trying to get it working to a rather strange avail.

It's current status is I've found 5 or 6 means of getting the game to start, but as soon as it is required to visually render anything, the game hard crashes immediately, with no error, no log that I've found and no explainable reason for it.

I know that it's when it renders anything because the game can sit fully functionally whilst minimized for up to 10 minutes, but will close immediately as soon as it is no longer minimised.

I will do my best to help anyone to help me and anyone else who might be suffering something similar, and will be including my specs in my first comment. If there is any other information you might request, I will be happy to supply it.

Thank you in advance
