    you have to remember that proton is translating Windows software to Linux while you play so the fact that it works at all is pretty great, but of course it’s not a great experience you’ve had!

    Have you tried experimental proton versions in the compatibility settings? Also do you have the proprietary nvidia drivers?

    Frankly Linux, especially gaming, is not ready without plenty of command-line foo

      Tried commands, tried proton experimental, tried gametime or whatever it’s called, tried switching dx’s and all that. And yeah, used proprietary, except on cachyOS which I believe supports my hardware out of the box.

      And honestly, I didn’t need co.mand line for anything when I tried and. Spent a week on it, made it mirror more or less my wi dows config software wise.

      Only thing that, except gaming, pissed me off is Linux not being able to read my portable HDD. “Yadda yadda, suprblocm damaged, yadda yadda”.

      Windows, seemingly, didn’t get the memo as it opens it without a problem.

          It’s a native implementation of the win sys call libs, so it doesn’t need to translate anything, but I see you meant like someone translated it, but you made it sound like it should somehow cost performance, as if it is being emulated or something.
