Let's talk about Steam Play
Let's talk about Steam Play, a way for Steam users to access Windows, Mac and Linux versions of Steam games with a single purchase.
The new and improved Steam Play for Linux is powered by Proton, a modified distribution of WINE that provides compatibility with Windows game titles.
Testing of the entire Steam catalog is ongoing, but for right now, a limited number of Proton-powered titles are supported in the initial beta release.

I remember the fix for GTA 4 on windows was a .bat file that you just ran, and it'd download/configure everything for you. I cannot find this fix anymore, and I am on Linux which makes a bat file useless. How can I get that fix for my game to make it smoother? It lags at 30fps in PlayboyX's mansion.
So I’ve managed to download vintage storage for the discover app on my steam deck like the game page says. done all the step but when it come to login in on the game it keeps saying login failed and all my details are correct as I test it on my phone. Can anyone help me with this problem
Edit2: SOLVED. This is an issue with the update to The Finals on the 9th of January. I see now that multiple people on the ProtonDB site are talking about this as well, having the exact similar issue since the recent update. I'm unsure if this really has to do with the NVaftermath stuff, as removing it takes the game down to an even worse FPS count.
For the past couple of days, I've been working using Pop OS and trying to make it something usable for myself. It's up until yesterday that I've been dipping my toes into running Windows games with Proton.
Before I installed Pop OS onto my main SSD, splitting my Windows install with it, I was running a test install of Pop OS on a USB SSD, which ran The Finals perfectly fine - ~144 FPS on high settings (10 days ago). But it's been up until now that I've been encountering FPS issues, aka the game locking at around 20 FPS no matter the video settings.
I've tried multiple game launch opinions and both Proton 9 & Hotfix; not a change. But I'm willing to try out anything that could help.
System specs for note: i5-12600k, RTX 4070 SUPER, 32GB DDR4
I got a strange problem. Every game starts to freeze after 5 minutes. And to keep playing i need to tab in and out and then i can play again for a minute and then do it again.
So i guess the game looses fokus. Any i idea what i could do?
I just installed a new game called bodycam (its on stea) im running a 3080 with a ryzen 5 5600. On windows (im dual booting) i get around 180-190 fps give or take, although running on linux (even tried dx11) i only seem to get around 60-70 any tips?, (ive already tried different proton versions and PROTON_USE_D9VK=1, havent had anything help. Also ive tried messign with the fsr, nothing seems to make a difference. Although I do note that my fps stays the same no matter what resolution or graphical settings i change. which makes me seem to think that it has nothing to do with my hardware because running extreme settings gives me the same performance as potatoe at 720p (im running 1440p on windows).
I can't play a game with a friend, I don't know if I'm doing something wrong... someone save me!
hello guys, i'm new here, and i came here specifically for this single issue. i'm using a laptop, to be more more specific, a inspirion 15 7000 gaming. my specs are:
Nvidia GTX 1050 Ti
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7700HQ CPU @ 2.80GHz
16 GB of RAM
Windows 10 (64)
for what i know, these specs should be more than enough to run the game at a solid 60 fps, but for whatever reason the game tanks the fps down to abysmal framerates. i also tried to install performance improving mods such as the Direct3D11 mod, but it made no difference. idk why is this. the remastered version that released a few months ago runs way better, although it still drops frames like crazy, but it stays most of the time at acceptable framerates. i recently formatted the laptop too, and installed all the drivers. do you guys know why this could be happening? thanks in anticipation!
i try to install xact and d3d9 with winetricks. But audio in cutscene missing. help.
I cannnot for the life of me get this error message to go away after vrchat crashes.
Failed to initialize graphics. Make sure you have DirectX 11 installed, have up to date drivers for your graphics card and have not disabled 3D acceleration in display settings. InitializeEngineGraphics failed
I have looked everywhere and i cant seem to find the problem
I have tried Proton 9.0-3 and experimental and have been completely unable to launch the game.
I am trying to run this cheat table: https://www.nexusmods.com/monsterhunterworld/mods/2161?tab=files
on this mod: https://github.com/AsteriskAmpersand/Ice-Stable
Mod installation is fine, everything works, but cheat engine installed through regular wine just won't be able to scan any processes. I've tried using protonhax but MHW ICE mod already needs the following launch command: WINEDLLOVERRIDES=version,dinput8=n,b %command%
which i dunno how to use alongside the protonhax init %COMMAND%
Hi all, I recently purchased Fallout 3 GOTY on Steam, but I've run into the fact that none of the advice from Youtube or ProtonDB is helping me.
It goes like this:
I click Play
Installed dotnet30 after the error comes out: failed, that I need to go to the Control Panel
I go into the game
I click new game
The game crashes on the loading screen
I tried downloading a ready-made pirate for Linux (don't judge harshly, for the test) and it worked...
I tried throwing in xlive.dll, tried making a 32 bit prefix, tried manually putting dotnet30 (no luck). None of these things worked for me
What to do, I can provide a dump with the error, but it is unlikely to help anything Click
PS: Startup parameters: PROTON_LOG=1 PROTON_USE_WINED3D=true gamemoderun %command% (vulkan does not work for me)
!!! UPD !!! :
I was able to do it, the game WORKED. So, in order of what I did.
Thanks to everyone who tried to help me :D A little later I will upload the folder with the game, prefix and post the link here.
Why on Earth noone talks about disabling hidraw
when using Dualshock 4 (and DualSense) via bluetooth?
It's so damn "stupid" I found the solution outside officals Steam channels: https://selfmadepenguin.wordpress.com/2024/02/14/how-i-solved-my-gamecontroller-problems/
I've played through HZD and HFW under steam/proton. Both titles didn't work out of the box and required several days to get going. I assume the remaster will be the same. I'm just curios if anyone not on a steam deck has it working as I've seen reports of people playing on the deck.
