Sadly these modern engines don't have good old BSP/brushes/sectors/patches/other options to create solid geometry it editor, so you need to create separate 3D models in Blender or import existing ones even for simple geometry.

Quoting: x_wing... native ports ... Feral ...Are Feral ports really much more native than playing using Proton?

Quoting: GuestI have a question about Steam Play... Contrary to most native games that ask the system to suspend compositing to improve performance (kwin supports this), I have to do it manually with WINE/Steam Play/Proton apps. I guess they will eventually implement this feature, but does any of you have a workaround ? I find it a bit annoying to have to set a rule for each game or to have to disable compositing by hand.I assigned compositing toggle to hotkey as a workaround.
(as you know, kwin doesn't disable compositing for all fullscreen apps but for apps that request it)

Quoting: spacemonkeyIs it possible to install the Windows version of a game that has a native Linux version? Since the VR should work better I would like to try Everspace. But only the Windows version of Everspace supports VR (the Linux version does not). So, is there a way to install the Windows version and use Steam Play?https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/5638 [External Link]

Sadly i don't remember how i fixed this crash...Quoting: axredneckI tried it, and it crashes when I start a new game.Quoting: ageresStalker: Shadow of Chernobyl. Must be I'm the last man on Earth who haven't played it.If you haven't finished/played it then you'd better play with OGSE mod.

edit: also if you need stable DE you can use XFCE.

Quoting: tonRYes, I'd seen severals on extensions.gnome.org. But, I research severals forums especially Ubuntu-related one, sometimes the extension may break the whole OS. I really don't want to take the risk.For me Arch is more stable than Ubuntu was when i used it.
Nowadays, I'm value stability. I'd no longer have enough free time to fix my computers like when I was 12-19/20, that's why I use Ubuntu. But, even Ubuntu also sometimes unstable nowadays, I don't know which distros I'll adopt next...

Quoting: YaumeisterIs there anyway to force Steam to download the Windows version of a game (911 Operator), rather than a broken and now unsupported Linux version?issue #5638 [External Link]
I tried to do this via SteamCMD, which I managed to force download it, but as soon as I launch the Steam Client, it does an update and download the Linux version.
