From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For me, it's Shared GPU memory.

This honestly sounds like you're seeing a bug.

Well, it probably is. I'll soon be getting a GPU with a bigger VRAM and putting that GPU into my home server for Jellyfin as a replacement for QuickSync (NVENC is better, imo).

Did you try their fix? Often it really is as easy as adding a launch option

[–] DieserTypMatthias@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 days ago (3 children)

I added game modern mangohud PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command% to the startup configuration and it still runs like shit. I'll try running it on a Windows VM (VMware as a hypervisor).

I meant the:

-force-d3d12

one. Might need to put "%command%" after it, but I'm still not 100% sure what that even means and why its there so I dunno.

Edit: I would also check out the entry for the game on ProtonDB if you haven't already (sorry if someone else has already told you all this elsewhere in the thread) to see if anyone else has had similar issues: https://www.protondb.com/app/949230

I haven't played C:S2 yet, so I can't say personally, but it could just be a poorly optimized game.

The -force-d3d12 option is a param to the actual game, so it would go after %command% (or by itself if no prefixes are being added).
