Stalker Clear Sky via Lutris is trying to use Nvidia drivers but I have an AMD card? Seeking assistance

EDIT: Got impatient, uninstalled, reinstalled from .deb, works fine now lol.

I've been using Lutris with no issue for years but I recently tried to get Stalker Clear Sky running (I've owned it for years but never actually checked it out) and when I try to play it, it just closes after a couple seconds without opening a window (or at least one I can see).

I tried debug mode and while I don't entirely know what I'm looking at, this stood out:

ERROR    2024-11-09 21:31:04,031 [nvidia.get_nvidia_glx_path:42]:Unabl

e to load libGLX_nvidia.so.0
WARNING  2024-11-09 21:31:04,031 [nvidia.get_nvidia_dll_path:90]:Unabl
e to locate libGLX_nvidia

I have an AMD GPU and Intel CPU, so I don't entirely understand why it's trying to find an nvidia driver. Here's my hardware info as it appears in Lutris:

[System]

OS: Ubuntu 22.04 Jammy Jellyfish

Arch: x86_64

Kernel: 6.8.0-48-generic

Desktop: KDE

Display Server: x11

[CPU]

Vendor: GenuineIntel

Model: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-11400 @ 2.60GHz

Physical cores: 6

Logical cores: 12

[Memory]

RAM: 15.5 GB

Swap: 2.0 GB

[Graphics]

Vendor: AMD

OpenGL Renderer: AMD Radeon RX 570 Series (polaris10, LLVM 15.0.7, DRM 3.57, 6.8.0-48-generic)

OpenGL Version: 4.6 (Compatibility Profile) Mesa 23.2.1-1ubuntu3.1~22.04.2

OpenGL Core: 4.6 (Core Profile) Mesa 23.2.1-1ubuntu3.1~22.04.2

OpenGL ES: OpenGL ES 3.2 Mesa 23.2.1-1ubuntu3.1~22.04.2

Vulkan Version: 1.3.204

Vulkan Drivers: AMD Radeon RX 570 Series (RADV POLARIS10) (1.3.255)

I don't really know what to make of any of the debug stuff to be honest so here's everything from opening Lutris through Stalker closing: https://hastebin.com/share/jedadoguho.ruby

Other games I've tested run fine, and I've been using Lutris for years now with no issue. It's the GOG version of Clear Sky (owned, not pirated). I ran sudo apt upgrade lutris but I see that it's only on version 0.5.14 still? Should I try just uninstalling and reinstalling? I'd rather not have to set everything up again…

If you need any other info, let me know and I'll do my best to get it!

Epic Games showing 1000s of Unreal Assets in Lutris. Help?

Just got back to Lutris for the first time in a while, and when I logged into Epic Games and reloaded the library on Lutris it seems like it's showing all of my thousands of Unreal assets alongside my few hundred actual games. Has anyone else experienced this, and is there any way I can fix/change it?

Obscure abandonware needs CD to run

Hey guys, I am trying to run a really obscure point-and-click abandonware game. I mention it is obscure because I have found out there are no NOCDs out there for this game. I tried mounting the ISO and making a drive in Wine to fool the game into thinking the CD is there, but it appears to notice that it isn't really a real CD. Do I need to give up or do you have any advice for getting this game running. The game in question is Skipper & Skeeto: The Revenge of Mr. Shade

[Need Help] Ubuntu 24.04.1 - Mouse cursor laggy while Battle.net is opening + visual issues in and out of game

Hey all. I've recently removed my windows partition from dual-boot and this is my second attempt at playing World of Warcraft on Ubuntu with Lutris.

(I uploaded the video to google drive)

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1UlhhdRLp31JFQml9YtxC0EIN6QJkoH9I/view?usp=sharing

As you can see from my footage above, I'm experiencing a lot of issues with cursor lag everytime I open BattleNet and WoW itself. I've experienced the same issues during the installation process, when the little wine window popped up.

As shown in the video, my BattleNet windows also gets dark when I move it around.

And an extra issue, when stream recording with OBS (as in the footage) or screensharing on Discord, my game and sometimes cursor gets really laggy. Yet the fps doesn't seem to be changing, it's like instead of a smooth camera movement, I get a snappier version, not sure how to explain it but I think you can see it on the video (I recorded it with OBS after all).

What I've done so far:
- followed the Lutris github Battlenet install tips
- followed the Lutris github WoW install tips
- reinstalled Lutris with flatpak (I had installed it from the .deb before, same issues)

If anyone could please help me sort this out, I really do not want to have windows only for playing the >1< game. Thank you all.

Lutris version: 0.5.17 from flatpak
Wine version on the Lutris runner settings is the default: wine-ge-8-26-x86_64

Zoo Tycoon 2 mods won’t load

Silent Hill 2 Enhanced Edition

I was able to launch this game fine on my my Kubuntu laptop and my Linux Mint desktop. But something went wrong and I'm not sure what. At first, Lutris wasn't recognising the GPU (both Nvidia) but after making sure it showed up in the Global Options, I click play and it seems like it's loading, then does nothing. I've reinstalled the game a few times on my operating systems but it doesn't work. Anyone had this issue or a solution? I tested other games like Visage and SH4, they both work without issues. My guess is something in the installer for the SHEE.

Thanks!

Does anyone know how to fix this? I'm installing the linux version of the game and using wine doesn't work either. This appears after the launcher downloads.

Proton 9.XX on Lutris on Steam Deck

Choppy and Sped up audio of cutscenes in 007-Nightfire

Hey everyone, so I can decently play Nightfire using wine through lutris. I first installed the Nightfire zip, then extracted it and made playable by using the option "Add locally installed game" in lutris. I didn't tweak anything just launched it and its decently playable. But when the game tries to play any cutscenes or prerecorded videos. The audio of the cutscene just speeds up violently and gets choppy too. When I searched a bit I found something like "Setting pulseaudio latency to 60". I tried adding a environment variable in the game configuration in lutris as "PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC = 60" like I saw in a reddit comment. That didn't work. The builtin toggle "Reduce pulseaudio latency" under "Audio" label in "System options" pane seems to be disabled as well and can't be accessed. I can access the cutscene videos in the extracted game folder. They have '.avi' extension. All other game audio seems to be perfect and accurate. If somebody could help me, you would be helping a man relive his childhood.

Magic the Gathering: Arena + Untapped under Lutris -- Mini Guide

I saw a few posts about this on a few subreddits, including this one.

I think I've got the steps down so just putting them here in case they help anyone (I might rewrite this for images)

  1. Check which version of Wine lutris is using by default. I used wine-ge-8-26-x86_64
  2. Install MTGA using the Lutris UI (search for "Magic the Gathering")
  3. Let the app install (assuming you used the default path)
  4. Close the "Install completed" window, and launch the game
  5. Let it do its initial update and wait till you get to the login screen.
  6. Click on the cog in the top right. Set any settings you want, but the important one is to set detailed logs by clicking on "Account", then clicking the checkbox for "Detailed Logs"
  7. Click the back arrow until you get back to the login page
  8. Create a new account or login
  9. Wait for the game to update
  10. If you logged in, click through any notifications
  11. Exit the game to get back to the lutris page
  12. Download the untapped companion from the website
  13. At the bottom, next to the "Play" button is an Up arrow, followed by a wine glass, and another up arrow. Press the second up arrow (the one next to the wine glass), and click "Run EXE inside Wine prefix"
  14. Point to the untapped companion EXE
  15. Let it install and then disappear.
  16. Duplicate the MTGA shortcut and name it "Untapped" (or similar)
  17. Change the exe on the Untapped shortcut, and point it to /home/{username}/Games/magic-the-gathering-arena/drive_c/users/{username}/Local Settings/Application Data/Programs/untapped-companion/Untapped.gg Companion.exe
  18. Optionally, set the icons and banners, Icons are in /home/{username}/Games/magic-the-gathering-arena/drive_c/users/{username}/AppData/Local/Programs/untapped-companion/resources/static
  19. Start Untapped, wait for the window to appear.
  20. Sign into and connect MTGA to Untapped companion
  21. Start MTGA

If all goes well, you should see the companion appear.

NOTE: sometimes the screen goes black and you need to hover over the Untapped sidebar and/or click on it on order to clear it. Sometimes ALT+TABbing off and then back clears this bug. Haven't figured out a reliable way to prevent or fix this yet.

GNOME 45 runtime End of Life?

Hey just got this message when updating (I'm on Pop!_OS on this laptop) my org.gnome.Platform flatpak:

https://preview.redd.it/u73cjg3qo1yd1.png?width=1465&format=png&auto=webp&s=8023165be1985f66195fcd4b13eb305de0b51394

stating that Lutris devs need to migrate to a supported GNOME version since 45's runtime is EoL since over a month ago!

Is this a known issue being worked on with Lutris, does anyone know?

SKSE through Lutris

I've got Lutris running installs of Skyrim as well as MO2. I installed MO2 by running an exe through the Skyrim Wine prefix so they share the same folder structure. I then manually configured a new "game" in Lutris that basically points to the MO2 exe.

All works well for both with the configs I've got. MO2 runs well, and SKSE runs through MO2 no issues at all.

My issue is, when I try and add SKSE into Lutris the same way I did for MO2, SKSE launches as if it's vanilla Skyrim. No MO2, no SKSE and no game saves, even though it's pointing to the exact same SKSE exe that MO2 is pointing to.

Is there a step I'm missing to have SKSE run normally without having to launch MO2 every time?

I'm running Fedora KDE 40. Kernal: 6.11.4-201.fc40.x86_64 with Wayland and KDE version 6.2.2

"Could not parse file /home/user/.local/share/applications/com.obsproject.Studio-desktop": No such file or directory

Hey guys. I'm trying to install a game via Lutris as I have multiple times before. However I'm being met with the error which is the title of the post:

"Could not parse file /home/user/.local/share/applications/com.obsproject.Studio-desktop": No such file or directory

Does anyone know what is going on? Why is lutris looking / trying to do something with that directory?
I am on Arch. Could it be something to do with my mirror list? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Trackmania goes to background after launch and is non-interactable

After launching Trackmania (2020) the game sometimes moves to the background and becomes fully non-interactable. This seems to only be solved by fully rebooting my desktop.

Logs can be found here.

I'm running NixOS and have all the necessary files packages installed and settings enabled as far as I know. (My config can be found here.)

Losing Audio running apps

I'm using Manjaro KDE and I'm connecting using bluetooth headphones.

Whenever I run something in Lutris using 'Proton GE 9 16" it runs, disconnects my bluetooth headphones, then flickers and reconnects with substantially lower audio quality. If I close the program the low quality audio stays until reset.

The only info I found was to add "--keep-pulse" to the program arguments

I can't figure out how to stop this annoying behavior

Steam deck lutris pre-launch scripts not working in game mode

I've installed stalker anomaly: EFP on my steam deck and in desktop mode the pre-launch script for setting CPU affinity is running fine. As soon as I try launching the mod or lutris through game mode the pre-launch script isn't running. What are some things I can try to get it to run in game mode?

Help getting past Ubisoft sign in

OpenSUSE tumbleweed. Downloaded Lutris and installed epic games and Ubisoft package. I’m trying to sign in Watch dogs and every time it takes me to the same login. I put in my Ubisoft credentials and it takes me back to the login in a loop instead of launching the game. Sorry if I missed something with the install

Games tagged as missing after restart

Hello guys, am new to the world of linus and I was trying to get my games working via lutris and I ran into this problem of the games tagged as missing after a restart. Initially when I added these games they worked just fine just after the restart its acting this way. (Dual door with windows) And i have the executable file on my other drive dedicated for games.

This is the error that shows up /run/media/user/some random numbers/gamename/gamename 6Px45/ gamename.exe could not be found.

Tried to download Battle.net and I keep getting this error.

https://preview.redd.it/h5rzbvmhs8wd1.png?width=528&format=png&auto=webp&s=87d6ad611b730ec72fb280d85cf5b8d82344c7d3

It'll get to the update bar, stop at 45%, and then keep spitting out this error. I'm honestly just not sure what to do. Help?

UPDATE: I just downloaded the .exe from the Battle.net website and now it's working no problem. Why it wouldn't work through Lutris is just weird to me. However, I'll still ask, can I add Battle.net to Lutris? I want to be able to have all of my launchers in one convenient place.
