Linux gamers too. Sometimes I come across a game like Assetto Corsa that launches for 0.1 seconds and then crashes, so I'm trying the routine list of low hanging fruit easy fixes in the hopes that one of them does the trick

Relatively new still to Linux gaming, what does your routine list look like?

[–] GregorGizeh@lemmy.zip 16 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (7 children)

Not op, but mine is

  • check protondb, try the last few recommended versions
  • search web for "game name + linux" or your distro
  • ask for help on relevant discords for either your game or your distro
  • NEVER trust any ai answers.

So far that has covered the problems i ran into, but maybe someone has something to add?

Same here.

And if there no protondb info or it have "platinum", then start praying. Also, god forbid if you want something extra like FSR4 or install some mods. Then you mixing this things to whole "is that my hardware\software\proton issue or game genially bugged?"
