Justin If I remember correctly it was a problem due to Battle.net.exe and/or Agent.exe. There was kinda the same problem on Windows tho. Where Battle.net Launcher fucked with performance in games.

Solution back then on Linux was killall Battle.net.exe Agent.exe

Or just use the setting in Battle.net Launcher to close itself after launching a game, that kills Battle.net.exe but not Agent.exe IIRC.

And about OW in general. For me, it runs perfectly fine on Linux. And on Solus it feels even more smooth. My mouse feels better than on Windows to be honest. I do have 1x1 pixel movement on Windows, no skipping etc. no accel. ofc. But still, it feels somehow better on Linux/Solus for me. Only thing is, when starting the game first, it drops on frames for couple of seconds, because if shader caching or whatever. But thats about it.

      Emperor Lutris is just a launcher, it has launchers that use steam, wine, gog.com etc. Lutris however puts together custom wine builds that work best for each game so you don't have to tweak stuff.

        nodq Gotta give it another go!

        Also need to test BF-V as that's the only other game I play lately.

            Emperor With Wine, there are lots of scripts, tweaks, versions etc. Lutris has a "Database" of games where they provide install scripts with the best possible settings, versions, tweaks and all that.

            So you do not need to research anything anymore or do anything on your own. Maybe set some settings in Lutris UI itself, thats about it. Lutris does all the work for you to get your games working. Just follow instructions, if there are any for the game you wanna install.

            Justin Origin games are tricky. I am not an EA fan, don't like BF at all. But as far as I am aware, BFV can be installed with Origin. I don't know if it works.
            Apex Legends for example, because of easy anti cheat does not work. BF uses BattleEye IIRC. So that could give problems too, I guess.

                  Won't play Apex Legends until they get their griefing sorted out.

                    Justin You are talking about cheaters? Yeh, first 10 days were great, had fun with it. But just one day after a particular "cheat package" was released, AL was spammed with cheaters left and right. It is insane. Never saw that many hackers and cheater in my 20+ years of gaming on PC. haha. That is pretty much why I stopped playing it.

                        nodq Nope, just griefers, there's no in-game or out of game for that matter reporting for abusive players, I don't even think you can mute them.

                          Fatih19 When you have an old HD 4600 graphics and you go below 30 fps it's not feeling smooth-which at least for me is pain in the ass.

                            nodq Hahah...well is it possible to easily run some not very well known programs like bot for Hearthstone, deck trackers, arena scores etc. ?

                            • nodq replied to this.

                                OK now I am ready to do dual boot. So first I have to burn USB with Solus, then create a new partition on the secound Hard drive and install Solus there. Is there anything I need to know? Like why do I need to burn USB with rufus instead of just copy-paste(I know silly question), what to do with this thing called UEFI(I understand it as simply a BIOS).

                                Also I have found some bugs when using cyrillic alphabet-not being able to write a PC name and install.
                                After installing on VM with English and changing the language again I was logged out and I could only log with using an empty password...then I saw that in order to change language the shortcut was not Alt + Shift but Super + Alt...why is this strange combination a thing?

                                nodq HearthRanger seems to be missing...and without a bot I can't see myself losing time playing Hearthstone at all...

                                  Perhaps it's an opportunity to swear off Blizzard?

                                    dbarron Blizzard games are running fine on Linux. He just wants to have/use overlay bots for Hearthstone that makes the decisions for which card to use etc. pp. which are not considered cheating currently and are "allowed" AFAIK.

                                    I mean, I personally don't get it why someone uses this, when you do not play for yourself anymore and just watch it doing its job. But ok. So, those apps do not work 100% on Linux and therfor Heartstone is not worth his time anymore. At least that is how I understood it. But Hearthstone itself works fine.

                                        Yes...I understood that. And I agree with your points Nodq.

                                        nodq Well actually they are not allowed. They are used for me to save time by bot doing my daily quests and mining gold. If you leave your bot 8 hours to play Blizzard will found out and ban your account for ever...And then if I want I can play only for rank or arena.
                                        As for my advanced accout I want to at least earn money from it via selling it(which is also not allowed and risky). Hearthstone is interesting but time-consuming...and I don't wanna waste much time with games. I play it because I've already lost huge time for it...which I fully undarstand is a bad decision.

                                            Emperor Ok, I do not know much about Hearthstone as I do not play it and never have. But I gotta tell you that I don't have any respect for cheaters and bot users. As a long time WoW player I have grown to hate these people that use bots, destroying other players fun and waste their time etc.

                                            Last time I read about those HS overlay bots and that stuff, I saw some forum threads that Blizzard tolerates them. As I said, I dunno much about it. And IF it is not allowed nor tolerated by Blizzard, I really hope the Solus team will not go any further to support these kind of questions and problems. But that is their decision.

                                            Good luck anyway with your stuff.
