  1. #LinuxGaming #PSA which us old-school Linux gamers know and you may not know if you changed more recently.

    A lot of games that have issues with alt-tabbing in Linux (looking at you Skyrim, especially #modded #Skyrim) will actually work the way you want it to if you enable Wine's virtual desktop mode.
    It's a teeny, tiny graphical overhead but it makes stuff that want to behave like hard fullscreen games still act like borderless windowed mode instead.

    Easiest way to enable it for #steam games is to use #protontricks. Quick guide in the next toot.

    You will need to install protontricks. How to do that on your distro is an excercise for the reader.

  2. i NEARLY fell for a scam page
    i found a game (Lichdom: Battlemage 2014) that doesn't run on linux with proton by default
    searching i found that I should try protopntricks protondb.com/app/261760#g2S6Jp

    easy enough, but found the scam site: protontricks.com
    The only reason I got suspisicous was that there was no github link on the page, despite mentioning it over and over again and sure enough, the github page has a warning:
    github.com/Matoking/protontric

  3. Had to jump through a few hoops to get Batman Arkham Asylum running on my Steam Deck, but now it's running great!

    I'm very thankful for ProtonDB. It's a wonderful website full of useful community sourced fixes to try. I ended up using Protontricks to install some DLL files and Proton-GE and I got it running at max settings.

    Thus begins my Arkham series replay that'll culminate with me finally playing Arkham Knight for the first time.

  4. You know what? Let's do the tags and see what fedi might have

    #proton #protontricks #steam #linux

    How do I tell proton tricks where my steam directory is? It errors that it can't find it when running CLI, if I use the GUI all my games are listed but I'm unable to do anything - after selecting a game it errors out missing a magic key

    Update: Errors in Thread

  5. Есть ещё неплохой #protontricks позволяющий находить префиксы и настраивать их. Очень удобно.
