The latest GE-Proton has a fix for the Battlefield 4 ping issue. Haven't tested it yet but it is easier than running those commands.

    Strange Bricade

    1. Open directory ~/steamapps/common/StrangeBrigade/bin/
    2. Rename "StrangeBrigade.exe" to "StrangeBrigade.exe.org"
    3. Create a backup of the Vulkan exe (StrangeBrigade_Vulkan.exe ---> StrangeBrigade_Vulkan (copy).exe)
    4. Rename StrangeBrigade_Vulkan.exe to StrangeBrigade.exe

    Play the game

    Hedon

    One issue when running Steam in native runtime mode, is that some games can complain not having access to some redistributables at all.
    That’s the case for Hedon native version. I first thought for some weird reason it wanted to have gzdoom installed, but nope.

    Install libbsd for it.

    sudo eopkg it libbsd

    Need For Speed Undercover (2008)

    windows native,originally made to run on windows xp and vista.

    for best experience ,use Proton version 5.0-10 (i think the other versons have some problems)

    this game has not been updated for several years (discontinued in 2017) and hence there are some display related issues with the game (broken roadmarks,blurry in-game signboards etc)

    I noted that during the start of any race,a certain cutscene plays and then the screen zooms out weirdly and the game freezes for a second,so by the time the game returns to its normal state all your opponents would be long gone.

    (Pro tip: use manual transmission for better control over your vehicle and reduce in-game music volume to concentrate on driving)

    More fixes for Need For Speed Undercover

    The graphical issues i mentioned in my above post can be just partially solved by adjusting the in-game video settings

    Here are some of them that i found useful and working in my machine:

    1) enabling v-sync [this has shown to reduce screen tearing (atleast in my case) and the game's fps will be set to your monitor's refresh rate (60 Hz for me)]

    2) set shadows to either 'low' or 'medium'. However,just as expected turning this setting off gives a massive performance boost (i got +20 fps!)

    3) If you set world effects and world objects to high, all particles will be loaded and this mostly solves the 'broken roadmarks' issue that i mentioned in my previous post.

    4) the broken steam overlay can be fixed now, but the guide i have for that is for windows 10 only 🙁 https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1138005386

    5) if you press alt+tab in-game to switch back to the desktop,the game freezes and would remain that way until you forcefully close it somehow. there isnt a real fix for this other than running the game in windowed mode.

    many more issues exists within the game, and i will post them here if i find a solution.

    Infinitely Shader Vulkan processing when i started Metro Exodus. Does anyone know how this is repaired?

      George Were you able to skip it? I have had it get stuck on Halo, but restarting got it working.

          Killing Floor 2 Update

          KF2 recently switched voice chat services. This makes the fix I posted obsolete. I was able to run it fairly well with the latest Proton GE, though I haven't tested it extensively.

          Use the linux steam integration tool and select the steam libraries instead of native. Feral is using older libraries that causes it to crash on start.

              zmaint hmm, I already have "use native runtime" switched off - I don't know if I ever had it switched on either. thanks anyway!

                Halo: MCC Update

                Seems the recent update made the UI crash happen again. I was able to get it running by adding -windowed to the steam launch properties. Switched the game to borderless in the video settings, and it ran fine.

                Additionally, if you are trying to run it with a newer proton version and encountering difficulties, you may need to delete the prefix, which should be located in steamapps/compatdata/. Find the folder with the ID 976730, back up save data inside it if you wish, and then delete it. The next time you run the game, proton will automatically remake and configure the prefix.

                Fingers crossed that 343 turns on the EAC switch soon.

                528491 Nice! I've been running it with Proton since I heard the native version is not relly supported anymore.

                    alanwake82 Glad it helped! Supposedly the latest GE Proton has a fix for it too.

                      Splitgate

                      I've had it crash with a UE4 error when loading. To work around this, set %command% -windowed -no-border in the steam launch options and then make it fullscreen with F11 or whatever your fullscreen shortcut is after it connects to the server and loads passed the title screen. It can also crash if you're using Mongohud, so make sure that's disabled.

                      if you are using a desktop environment where the panel can't be hidden, but it prevents you from changing the setting from windowed to full screen, do this:

                      1. Exit the game
                      2. Open the options by clicking on the game on the left side of the screen or on the gear
                      3. Add the -fullscreen option

                      Itch.io Client

                      The installer works, but apparently some complications with Electron and glibc causes the app not to work. The workaround for now is to launch itch with the --no-sandbox option.

                      If you want to make this change work in the menu, you can use the program menulibre from the repo, Just add --no-sandbox at the end of the command section.
