[fading topaz]

I wouldn't trust any claimed build guides

[pine kayak]

I am using Arch btw

[vivid fog]

Thanks, so, just play and hope that I get a gud path?

[fading topaz]

Yup

[pine kayak]

Which wine version are you using? the original wine or the lutris version?

[fading topaz]

Plus respeccing will be more accessible

[vivid fog]

I don't know which version is, because, I'm just running a wrapper made by CachyOS team

[pine kayak]

Ahh got it

[vivid fog]

I just won't bother at all to deal with Wine versioning, and, download the CachyOS-Meta-gaming package

And, come with this umu-proton wine

[pine kayak]

yeah, but each game runs differently I think

[vivid fog]

For the name, probaly a Pronto wrapper

[pine kayak]

there is a wine version that enables custom scaling

[vivid fog]

Speaking so....

Control-V is not working 😢

My passwords are 20 character long

Damn

Wait

Now that I'v seen

BRUH

I DOWNLOADED THE WRONG GAME

[pine kayak]

no way

for real?

[vivid fog]

For real

[velvet mortar]

https://pathofexile2.com/download

[vivid fog]

I'v downloaded from PoE1 site

[pine kayak]

you still have time

[vivid fog]

😭

[pine kayak]

but are games running better on Lutris than on steam?

I never played on linux

[fading topaz]

I don't think you should be seeing a significant performance difference just because you're launching it through one or the other

[vivid fog]

It depends

[fading topaz]

They're both using wine/proton under the hood

Where it matters more is the version of these things

[vivid fog]

But, generally speaking, Proton is more optimal for games, than Wine

Due to be build only for games

And Wine is more "wide" variety of apps

[pine kayak]

I hope there won't be a patch

[vivid fog]

Hopping that Brazil servers collaborates, and download the game quickly

[pine kayak]

I'm in EU, I think here will be the worst

[vivid fog]

Around 60MB/s

Should download quickly

My SSD isn't taking the effort bruh

[pine kayak]

my beloved laptop

[vivid fog]

My network is okay

[pine kayak]

is that KDE?

[vivid fog]

No, it's Hyprland

But, that app is Mission Control

You can download it via Flatpak

It's a very good app to monitoring

Feels like Windows Task Manager

[pine kayak]

I like the one on Gnome, but I will switch DE, because Gnome is garbage

been a user for over 4 years, and it has become a real pain

[tame surge]

KDE Plasma is nice

[rough python]

are you guys counting on steam, or is anybody in here rocking the standalone client through proton somehow?

[fresh swallow]

Plasma updates and breaks working things. Switching my gaming setup back to xfce like all the rest at some point.

[vast dome]

lets gooo!!

[rough python]

how did you get that to run on linux when steam is still unavailable?

[vast dome]

something with my steam is borked, so running lutris with the windows standalone

[dull oriole]

Anyone here already done the work of crafting up a command in UMU?

[fading topaz]

People are using tools like Lutris and Bottles to run the standalone client

[dull oriole]

Bull shit that steam isn't letting us open the game. Meanwhile everyone else will queue ahead in line on every other platform.

Just one more reason not to use it

[fading topaz]

Honestly I wouldn't even worry too much about the queue. They've already had to reset it a few times, and if there's server issues after launch, people will get booted anyways

[weak salmon]

Did you not even read #old-game-news

Or were you talking about something else

And yeah, there's a decent chance there'll be another reset of the queue

[dull oriole]

Sure I've seen dozens of posts, now I just have to hope that my client unlocks it like it's suppose to, and doesn't decide to auto update or some other stuff.

Irrelevant though I'm figuring out how it runs apps and testing out some alternatives now. Lutris might be frozen though, been installing game data a long time.

[opaque snow]

is the steam issue steam or an issue with linux

not being able to boot it, i mean.

[tame surge]

Steam. Not an issue. It's how it works

[opaque snow]

so i've preloaded the game but the path of exile 2 folder is actually empty... intended?

[devout path]

https://steamdb.info/blog/steam-download-system/

[tame surge]

Yeah. Steam encrypts the data. It's probably elsewhere in your steam directory until release

[opaque snow]

that sucks.

[dull oriole]

Cool we get to pay aes taxes on top of running on Linux

Just to "protect" some files that are already on windows machines everywhere

[tame surge]

Go download the main client then

[devout path]

So the process is we wait for the game to be enabled on steam, then steam sends us the key and our steam clients begin to decrypt the files and move them to the game dir.

[dull oriole]

That's what I'm working on, I just realized Lutris is another middleman that wants to cloud sync and everything else. Just trying to get down to the essence of what is actually happening when steam launches games.

So we have to wait for 60 gigabytes of decryption while others login? lol

[tame surge]

If you're running an SSD it shouldn't take too long

[devout path]

Personally I think being able to even log-on within the first 3 hours will be a victory. If you are sweating queue depth already you may be in for a bad time.

[ashen lance]

i am kinda contempt with not being able to play tonight myself

[tame surge]

Yeah honestly don't worry about it too much. You'll get to play soon enough.

[ashen lance]

if i do get to play tonight, i will count it as a blessing

[dull oriole]

I'm okay with accepting any roadblocks on behalf of the POE team. Less interested in fighting with the distribution practices and bundling of garbage with the middlemen.

[opaque snow]

im just gonna try to get it working on Lutris for now. steam later.

[ashen lance]

tbf steam should be pretty plug and play

[opaque snow]

it should but if the queue is going to be 6 digits long...

before i can even boot the game

[devout path]

I hear you, but this is just steam doing it's thing. It has a standard process for this stuff. GGG offering an alternative non-steam client isn't steams fault.

[ashen lance]

seen photos with queues being not even 5 digits yet on #2┃early-access

like 20 mins ago

[opaque snow]

for now

[dull oriole]

I just want to type a command and run the game. Steam has left a bad taste in my mouth since the change they made that started bad frame lag. The feature with the automatic recording of all games at all times without any user consent enabled by default. No idea wtf they were thinking. Rage inducing boldness from my perspective.

[odd sentinel]

Damn it my queue reset wtf

Just got dinner and had to restart queue

[devout path]

when was this change?

[dull oriole]

Guess they feel pressure to keep up with the cancer known as windows which does the same thing.

[tame surge]

You can disable that. I did immediately. Was crashing my games

[dull oriole]

Yea, I didn't know it was happening. Unfortunately it was published right after a POE update so I thought it was probably POE.

[tame surge]

You didn't get a notification about that change? It sent me one

[devout path]

I didn't even know it was a thing, just found it in settings and it was defaulted to off on arch

[odd sentinel]

It gave me notification and I would have had to opt in to enable it. You just pressed ok I guess 😄

[crimson sphinx]

that crap ain't enabled by default

[dull oriole]

Had they been transparent, had they notified me they were writing to my disk, leaking memory, etc, had they simply made it opt-in... instead of forcing me to use it. I would have known about the change and disabled it. They didn't, so fuck them, to be frank.

[round ridge]

good luck

[tame surge]

They probably did notify you

[opaque snow]

where's the setting?

[dull oriole]

If you have to enable your feature by default to make sure It's used so your Q4 MBO can kick in, you are the problem with tech industry atm.

[opaque snow]

wait "game recording" it's already off...

[dull oriole]

Good job you turned it off, or they rolled back on by default.

[opaque snow]

i didn't

[devout path]

yeah idk what Sweat is doing, it isn't defaulted to on

[tame surge]

Yeah I think Sweat is trolling. Not on by default and they sent a notification when they added it

[crimson sphinx]

you're talking out of your ass

[dull oriole]

It was definitely on by default dude.

Or it was A/B tested and I got unlucky.

[opaque snow]

it wasn't.

[dull oriole]

It was, period (for me). You can think as you want. I know it was enabled. I only discovered it after strace'ing processes and then found the setting enabled.

[opaque snow]

then you enabled it and didn't realize it.

[round ridge]

you probably didnt notice the introduction of the feature

[crimson sphinx]

I don't have time for this guy on this lovely friday night.

[devout path]

Even the steam FAQ says you need to enable it my guy

[dull oriole]

Again, they backed the change out or A/B tested and I got unlucky.

[weak salmon]

It's definitely opt in

[round ridge]

there will likely be no justice for you on this matter

[dull oriole]

Maybe they selected hardware with certain specs. I don't really care. Both me and my girlfriend had it on by default.

[round ridge]

maybe a ghost

[opaque snow]

you sleepwalk

[tame surge]

What ascendancy is everyone going first?

[crimson sphinx]

blocked, peace.

[round ridge]

monk airbender guy

[opaque snow]

I kinda wanna go Titan... but maybe Warbringer? it's hard to decide now.

[weak salmon]

I'm gonna wait for poe2 full launch so I'll be doing a necromancer in poe1

[crimson sphinx]

some witch stuff probably, let's try to get into the game first...

[tame surge]

I'm still debating between Chayula Monk and Witchhunter

[devout path]

titan for that dual two hander action

[round ridge]

Chayula does seem powerful - the ascendencies are introduced at different points in the first 3 acts correct?

[opaque snow]

@ 66MB/s right now. tryin' to race my way into queue lmao.

[tame surge]

Not sure currently. I think the trials are in act 2 and 3. But can't be sure

Have you guys looked at the tree data? Some of these nodes are really powerful

[crimson sphinx]

kubernetis can't follow

[round ridge]

yes, chayula seems to incentivize a more blood thirsty gameplay, constantly leeching to keep mana and shield up, which might be quite fun

[devout path]

it begins

[frozen thicket]

Rewrite it in Rust

[tame surge]

GIMP chad

[frozen thicket]

I'll be laughing all the way to the execution unit while your Python code takes 83 instructions to add two integers

[devout path]

I don't know man, that energy machine looks unsafe { }

[balmy pasture]

anyone running an intel Arc A750?

[pine kayak]

gosh Lutris is a mess

at least on EndeavourOS

[round ridge]

Yeah I don't care for it

[opaque snow]

it's pretty good for getting PoB running

and battle net

but i don't really use it for anything else.

i try to keep everything on Steam if I can

[safe jewel]

Use manjaro

[pine kayak]

wanted to download the game beside the steam version, just to be sure. Downloaded it, and after opning it black screen

[pine kayak]

I hope yo uare kidding...

[opaque snow]

gross

[safe jewel]

joking or..?

[opaque snow]

no.

[fading topaz]

Please refrain from turning this channel into a flame war

[pine kayak]

my 2nd distro ever, that's the shittiest distro

[opaque snow]

fair lol

[vivid fog]

BRUG

I have connected

[round ridge]

I am a nobara gnome enjoyer

[vivid fog]

And suddenly, dropped from queue

[round ridge]

they say they are resetting queue a few times @vivid fog

[opaque snow]

i'm on Nobara KDE

[pine kayak]

90% chance the system will break after update, like you need the bible in your hand and have proper backups

[opaque snow]

it's so nice

[crimson sphinx]

debian, ubuntu , arch, nix or nobara are pretty good imo

[opaque snow]

i have Endeavour on my laptop

it's very clean

[pine kayak]

fedora

[tame surge]

Manjaro can be stable. As long as you don't use AUR. But why even use Manjaro then?

[opaque snow]

next time I install my OS it'll be Endeavour or Arch depending on how lazy im feeling at the time

[safe jewel]

Manjaro has been nothing but stable

[pine kayak]

Actually I am planning to move away from Endeavour after 2 years

[safe jewel]

Gamed on it for years now

[opaque snow]

if you're going to use something like Manjaro I would just use Garuda or Cachy.

[crimson sphinx]

steam is moving!!

[tame surge]

I do think Manjaro gets too much hate tbh. It's fine imo

[opaque snow]

elaborate.

[safe jewel]

Manjaro gets way too much hate because users don't understand that not everything from the AUR can be used

[pine kayak]

all you need to do is search reddit, you will find your answer how stable it is

[opaque snow]

also i have launched the game

[crimson sphinx]

it is downloading the 84Gb again

[safe jewel]

so they break their machines

[pine kayak]

you might be just lucky

[crimson sphinx]

I think it's decrypting

[devout path]

that is just disk right? it is decrypting

[safe jewel]

this sounds like confirmation bias

but if you've had problems i mean /shrug

[opaque snow]

didn't it cause issues with the repos? there was a thing where it was actaully causing issues to like, Arch stuff.

i could be misremembering.

they pissed off a lot of maintainers

iirc

[safe jewel]

I'd have to look into that

i haven't heard anything about it

[devout path]

each key press in their gui package manager was sending a request to the arch repo servers from memory.

[opaque snow]

ah this one. >

Their package updating stuff ddosed the AUR multiple times leading to downtime

[tame surge]

Yeah I remember that lol

[pine kayak]

do I need to restart steam, or will it automatically decode the game?

[devout path]

it took a restart for me

[tame surge]

No need to restart. Might just take a bit

[dawn island]

steam restart was needed for me too, but kicked off the decryption automatically then

[tame surge]

Yeah. It was same for me. Just now started the download. Don't worry

I mean go for it if you're worried lol

[dawn island]

just guessing: did you activate your key at steam?

[safe jewel]

restart steam

[devout path]

GGG thought the load was heavy before, next minute steam unlocks 800,000 new players

[safe jewel]

go to downloads tab

click the refresh button

[safe jewel]

worked for me

[pine kayak]

kicked in

[opaque snow]

22 minutes remaining on the unpack

rip

[pine kayak]

it will make it

[opaque snow]

i hope they do a queue reset

[tame surge]

Didn't they say they would?

[opaque snow]

dunno

i dont really glue my face to an rss feed

not a bad idea though

lol

[safe jewel]

hmm

Game launches fine, can adjust settings with no issue

[opaque snow]

what proton

[safe jewel]

Not sure if Steam is allowed in queue yet?

Expirimental

[round ridge]

no i dont think so

[opaque snow]

have you tried any GE?

[safe jewel]

No

[dawn island]

I can tell you in 07:30m

[noble lion]

standalone queue is also down now

[opaque snow]

im going to try to get it going with the latest GE

[crimson sphinx]

I'm going ge9-20 first try

[round ridge]

getting patched rn

[opaque snow]

also i couldn't get the standalone working through lutris. probably a skill issue.

[safe jewel]

Also, love you guys, i laughed real hard getting into distro talk in PoE2 channel

[opaque snow]

lol

[craggy shuttle]

Hi, anyone else getting a black screen with poe cursor when launching poe2 via steam?

[pine kayak]

where can you choose the proton version?

[dawn island]

I took the latest lutris installer script for poe1 and did some minor modification. worked until login screen

[round ridge]

properties compatability

[safe jewel]

You can force the application to launch using a specific version in steam library properties for the game, or in the Steam settings to choose which proton version to use

[opaque snow]

i did with the standalone i haven't gotten the game unpacked yet... but i just manually installed through the exe installer in wine

[opaque snow]

do you have nvidia?

[swift vapor]

got it running in lutris, had to switch to DX12 from vulkan while on nvidia card, just a black screen with vulkan

[craggy shuttle]

yup

[opaque snow]

might be the issue

[pine kayak]

thank you

[crimson sphinx]

they want their monitor back

i just bought a 21:9 34 inch it's still in transit. i wish i was going to be here in time though

[crimson sphinx]

we have a few crt at the hackerspace, play duck hunty on it and some retro games.

[pine kayak]

shit, this was the same issue for me

[ebon crystal]

Older kernels and Nvidia can have problems launching the game.

[grave summit]

I have all the FPS in menu

[opaque snow]

soooze

[pine kayak]

I have the lts kernels and open nvidia drivers

[safe jewel]

Good luck everyone. See you in the end game.

[safe jewel]

If you relaunch it shows info

[opaque snow]

[safe jewel]

Mine didn’t show anything till relaunch

[ebon crystal]

That is just my experience I got PoE running on Debian 12 with Nvidia. But it had some serious problems which had me upgrading to more gamer-friendly OS.

[opaque snow]

https://tenor.com/view/hysterical-laughter-laughing-gif-25735842

[craggy shuttle]

For people getting black screen(with nvidia i guess) you have to change renderer_type=Vulkan to DirectX12 in ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/2694490/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/My Games/Path of Exile 2

[pine kayak]

Needed to change proton version and reboot

[opaque snow]

everyone still unable to connect?

[edgy sierra]

All I use gamemode for is to switch up CPU governors. I have my cpupower min-freq set to 3ghz and keep my governor on powersave for desktop usage, set governor to performance for games.

Yes

[craggy pendant]

not even their site launches so doubt we could connect to game at all

need more time for them to do the magical backend stuff

you reboot?

So far so good. (AMD, 7600XT) card fans go brrr, though. Normal?

Unsure, you might google it or test -force-vulkan

The game started for me, I changed from Vulkan to DX12 in the game settings

[swift vapor]

create the missing file and paste:

[grave summit]

oh boj. yes. I use my PC as a heat element 😄

[queen mountain]

Is that actually in-game, or just on the login screen?

[odd sentinel]

Confirmed works for my Nvidia GPU friend. I have AMD and it just works for me on Vulkan.

[grave summit]

just a login (do not think anybody managed to login yet :D)

[ebon crystal]

Got it working. Vulkan didn't load anything for me other than the cursor. Switching to DX12 helped.

[balmy pasture]

anyone running an Intel Arc GPU?

Woah the linux community, the brains of all PC users

[frozen thicket]

The real OGs only use TempleOS

[craggy shuttle]

Not religious mate

[queen mountain]

Do y'all recommend vulkan or dx12?

(For amd?)

[opaque snow]

you don't run your games through emacs? 🙂

[craggy shuttle]

I run them directly in TTY, only way

[safe jewel]

Depends, I like Vulkan but certain games won't run

I usually see perf boost using vulkan

[thin viper]

Press F1 to see the FPS counter and check CPU/GPU temps on login screen.
I believe nobody have tested it ingame yet

[frozen thicket]

I'd generally recommend Vulkan if you can get it working

[crimson sphinx]

see you guys after a few beers

[queen mountain]

Didn't know if vulkan was borked for AMD, too.

I had problems with Proton Experimental. Even after changing to DX12. Proton-GE-Custom did the job for me

[queen mountain]

I thought booze and launch days was a time-honored tradition?

[jovial current]

You must have been sent from the gods

[frozen thicket]

I think it's mandatory. Big Brother is watching

[trail wraith]

vulkan is native on amd iirc

[opaque snow]

[teal copper]

hello linux brothers, just stopping by to say hello and goodluck

i use arch btrw

[spiral summit]

[craggy shuttle]

Find my message from earlier

[swift vapor]

switch to dx 12 - scroll up

[pine kayak]

Looks like I got 4fps

[odd sentinel]

Try gamescope + DX12 if you are using NVIDIA

If just DX12 didn't work

[thin viper]

My config
80fps on login screen when uncapped, ultrawide

[pine kayak]

How many fps do you have?

[swift vapor]

around 90ish in login, 120ish in poe1

[opaque snow]

second vulkan shader processing. at least those are being pushed while we wait

[pine kayak]

What is the Bloom setting?

[thin viper]

[pine kayak]

I have a similar system and only got 65

[thin viper]

Clean your fans, change your thermal paste, dismiss process using resources

[rich dew]

Bloom is definitely bad in that photo lol

I often hate Bloom or Blur or other stuff

[thin viper]

How unfortunate that we cant disable antialiasing

I feel like AA performs bad when upscaled

[ebon crystal]

With Proton-GE-Custom.

[thin viper]

Is it a font issue for us, or does it behave like that in Windows too?

[pine kayak]

Do you have the proprietary nvidia drivers?

[swift vapor]

yep, also:

[pine kayak]

I'm running it via steam

[quartz mason]

How? Any specific configuration? Mine keeps crashing after 1 second of sound (cogs/gears)

[teal copper]

its same in windows

[pine kayak]

Thank you

[queen wyvern]

I've found some weird bugs already XD

[thin viper]

Thats a relief

[ebon crystal]

You say you're running Steam on Lutris? Why aren't you running native Steam? Do you get the proton options through Steam?

[queen wyvern]

Checking the hide email during login option crashes the game

[pine kayak]

Maybe running it with Wine and specific config makes the difference

[pine kayak]

No idea, I never gamed on linux. This is the first time

It just works

[queen wyvern]

and you cannot assign anything from the numpad to any input.

[pine kayak]

why is there a hotfix?

[worn socket]

Hey guys, planning on doing some couch coop. Is anyone able to assign two controllers to the two profiles in the settings ? I can assign either of the two on one profile, but as soon as one is selected, the other controller cannot get assigned to the other profile. Thanks!

[trail wraith]

using proton-GE here. running through gamemoderun and changed the render mode to DX12 in the poe2_production_Config.ini

[trail wraith]

are you running two instances of the game?

[ebon crystal]

Besides the gamemode run, this is the setup that worked for me

[worn socket]

no just one

[pine kayak]

Okay for me the best proton version is the hotfix one

[trail wraith]

I wasn't aware that the game had local co-op functionality

[swift vapor]

i've not used windows since 2019, went 100% linux then, i've had my fair share of linux servers long before tho

[quartz mason]

I did, where can I find the log?

[worn socket]

It should have, in the settings you can select a controller device for "controller #1" and "controller #2". I can assign them both to a profile but once it's done, the other profile won't let me select the controller

[thin viper]

In your home

Run ls ~/ | grep steam
You should have something like steam-3340480.log

[pine kayak]

Okay, I managed 75-100 fps

If I only I had a PC GPU

[quartz mason]

@thin viper https://gist.github.com/Industrial/a0abc2fb3ca799f01aed33237e6b8625

[jovial current]

Performance with DirectX12 is pretty bad tbh, is Vulkan gonna be better for Linux?

[swift vapor]

its rng, some games/ systems are better with vulkan others prefer dx12

[craggy shuttle]

I got the exact same performance, but cant start the game with Vulkan, only with DX12.

[trail wraith]

as of current, a good number of nvidia gpu users are having issues with vulkan

[jovial current]

how do you know you got the same performance with Vulkan if you ca'nt start the game?

[craggy shuttle]

You can change it in game

[fresh swallow]

gotta optimize for that login screen performance

[jovial current]

is that in general or for PoE 2 specifically?

[trail wraith]

that being said, I was able to change to vulkan after starting the game in menu, it just didn't work after restarting

[craggy shuttle]

exactly

[thin viper]

Sorry I couldnt find anything relevant. I am not advanced in that. The error feels a bit generic.

Have you tried using proton-GE? What version are you running?

[ebon crystal]

I assume the problem is Wayland + Nvidia + Vulkan. Since we seem to all be Wayland users. And the one person who could use Vulkan with Nvidia was using X11

[trail wraith]

that makes even more sense, because I know that wayland is more likely to have issues with vulkan on nvidia than x11 is

[craggy shuttle]

That makes sense, but if you really want vulkan it seems to work if you swap once you are in game.

[trail wraith]

I'm not sure if that actually swaps the renderer though, or if that'd require a restart

[quartz mason]

I started out with Proton Experimental, which didn't work. Then I installed Proton Hotfix, and then it worked. I could not connect and at some point I closed the game. From this point onward, it stopped working 😦

[trail wraith]

it seems like it does due to the black screen behind menus for a moment and then loading, but who knows

[craggy shuttle]

It does swap it, it borks the ui for me for a few seconds 😄

[trail wraith]

yeah same here

[quartz mason]

I'm doing a validation of files now, but I doubt that it will work

[pine kayak]

Proton hotfix, Vulkan has the best performance

[opaque snow]

no one can log in so idk what you changed but what are your specs

like if you got it to work once...

what did you do lol

[proper prairie]

https://steamcommunity.com/app/2694490/discussions/0/594008672803288499/ this fixed it for me, I can switch to Vulkan in game as well and it doesn't crash at least but start up apparently needs DX12

[thin viper]

Nobody can connect yet.
"Our current time estimates should have access opening within the next half hour"

[quartz mason]

ok

[thin viper]

You are not alone

[craggy shuttle]

Yup, Exactly as we said here.

[opaque snow]

TPB singlehandedly DDosing the servers rn lol

[pine kayak]

Funny thing is the steam version has Vulkan as default, and it didn’t do the black screen

[thin viper]

Check discussion link above. It suggests using bleeding edge proton

[trail wraith]

what gpu and are you wayland or x11?

[opaque snow]

yeah. though i swapped to DX12 to make sure it didn't cause issues later.

[pine kayak]

X11, nvidia has no proper support on wayland

[dawn island]

same for me, gtx 2070s, wayland

[dawn island]

explicit sync has been implemented

[thin viper]

Wayland is terrible even for AMD users

[trail wraith]

that's likely why. honestly I haven't been having too many issues with nvidia on wayland

[opaque snow]

idk about you but i never had issues with wayland

[swift vapor]

can you try to launch the game with your integrated gpu?

[opaque snow]

and i'm on nvidia

[ebon crystal]

People on LTS have to use X11 because no Wayland support for Nvidia GPUs. I had the same problem with Debian 12.

[trail wraith]

wayland has been in a pretty good spot for me on zen

[craggy pendant]

wayland has been giving me such random issues that I just gave up on it for now and will revisit in a few years

[pine kayak]

On the official Nvidia website there are discussions going on, but I can’t pull out those right now

[opaque snow]

nobara doesn't even ship with xorg by default

[craggy shuttle]

Been using wayland with Nvidia for like a year now and no issues apart from hibernation(suspend works).

[opaque snow]

well yeah they have things they want to work on, but like... it does work, at least on Nobara.

[craggy pendant]

yeah it depends on many variables

[pearl gale]

I use Fedora Silverblue + Wayland + Gnome + Nvidia just fine

[spiral summit]

thank you guys!! life savers

[craggy pendant]

interestingly there were some patches that didn't download until I restarted the game? or maybe those were shaders disguised as patches?

[thin viper]

With wayland:
screensharing doesnt work
RDP doesnt work
keyboard doesnt work
Tearing happens without a good workaround
Compositor sucks

[pearl gale]

Almost everything you said works fine for me

RDP, Screen sharing, keyboard, no tearing

[craggy pendant]

yeah the issue is when it doesn't work for everyone, not when it works for some

[thin viper]

IIRC RDP was not even implemented in wayland

[craggy shuttle]

Screensharing works for me without a problem
RDP works for me without a problem
I dont even knwo what keyboard not working means 😄
I havent noticed tearing
And Hyprland is great.

[pine kayak]

The problem is not with wayland, it’s with Nvidia not implementing proper support

[noble lion]

How do you even get tearing in wayland

[pearl gale]

RDP is the default remote desktop on Gnome Wayland. So it works

[trail wraith]

discord-canary just implemented native screensharing with wayland too less than a week ago

[thin viper]

About keyboard, I mean that it does not have enough features to customize and remap keys as X11 does.

[dawn island]

no wayland issues with 560.35.03 ..

[pearl gale]

Do it at the keyboard level? Get a keyboard with QMK/VIA or ZMK

[thin viper]

Turns out it becomes unviable to have non-standard mappings. Imagine typing çãàáó" ´ ` '

[craggy shuttle]

btw, I got like 10-20% more fps with protonge20 over proton experimental. Just throwing it out here.

[thin viper]

Deadkeys

[trail wraith]

that's not necessarily something that should even be within wayland's scope though

[craggy shuttle]

you mean like ěščřžýáíé

[pearl gale]

The goal of Wayland is to shed some of the excess features and have them be external tools that integrate into wayland

[ebon crystal]

êẽĉŝ works fine. Am on dk-latin1.

[pine kayak]

https://developer.nvidia.com/blog/nvidia-transitions-fully-towards-open-source-gpu-kernel-modules/

[trail wraith]

you've gotta remember, wayland is just supposed to be the protocol, stuff like keyboard stuff should be handled by something other than wayland

[thin viper]

It works, but it is not customizable

Wayland is not a compositor

[trail wraith]

I can't remember the word, but agreed

[pearl gale]

Wayland is a protocol that compositor implementations follow

[trail wraith]

protocol

that's what I meant to say

[pearl gale]

Mutter Kwin etc

[swift vapor]

too bad you cant disable GSP in nvidia open

[pearl gale]

Regardless, having everything inside X11 caused s shit ton of security issues and problems. Wayland is built by X11 devs. It's not like it's done group of inexperienced wannabes.

[pine kayak]

If you have a card from NV160 or newer, the nvidia open is recommended

[ebon crystal]

I believe I read that Wayland is also pushed forward by Steam devs

[thin viper]

I dont mean that the team is bad. Just that it does not have enough stuff implemented yet and enough customization

[opaque snow]

and Arch

[craggy pendant]

I have no doubt Wayland is the way to go, just I won't be touching it until what I want to work on it works

and I don't mind sitting on it a few years

[craggy shuttle]

And Gnome and KDE default to it nowadays even for Nvidia

[craggy pendant]

yeah KDE Neon defaulted to it for me on an update and screwed everything

hahah

[ebon crystal]

Debian 12 defaulting to Wayland was a bit of pain because of no Nvidia support.

[trail wraith]

honestly, steam has done so much heavy lifting for gaming as a whole on linux, let alone wayland

[swift vapor]

plasma 6 has been awesome tho

[craggy pendant]

yeah I really like Plasma

even though I moved away from neon, I still use kde on tuxedo

[trail wraith]

I decided to try out hyprland within the last month, and I can proudly say that I've only had to boot into windows twice for VR stuff

[pearl gale]

I will agree with you on that, but we just need to remember the goal is to have a lot of that stuff in the compositor implementations and not the protocol. Wayland is not the place for much of that. Just like X11s keyboard stuff is in xkb, there will be some Wayland tool that implements keyboard stuff that integrates with the Wayland protocol where needed

[opaque snow]

i have VKB sticks for other games (simulators) i bought a laptop just to configure them because their software won't run in linux and i refuse to dual boot after windows killed grub a few months ago.

[thin viper]

...there will be some Wayland tool that implements...
When it becomes more mature I might migrate

[pearl gale]

That is fair

[thin viper]

AFAIK there is no equivalent on wayland to /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/us

[pearl gale]

X11 had had decades to get where it is. Back when it was xfree86, it had 1/10th the amount of features.

[trail wraith]

unfortunately, things like VR are just lacking on linux still, and a few other games I play like tarkov won't even run in a windows vm

[cerulean jasper]

I am using freerdp and with remmina on arch/wayland. It works great except for the scaling if that matters to you. I run an 8k display so the scaling sucks but its only to remote into M$ office stuff anyways so it doesnt bother me much

[pearl gale]

There is not, because it is not expected to be there. Some tool Y will add similar functionality eventually. Or the Gnome/KDE/etc will add it custom

[thin viper]

Any other tweaks to make it work?
Edit: Or does it use X-11 bridge server?

[pine kayak]

You can dual boot, if the bootloader is in a different location. A new EFI drive should be created for grub and it will work

I mean EFI partition

[craggy shuttle]

I use Devolutions remote desktop manager and works great for me. Even with scaling.

[thin viper]

Imagine using RDP to play POE

[trail wraith]

that sounds like pain

[craggy shuttle]

I tried to use RDP to play league and not even that works with Vanguard lol

[cerulean jasper]

I am guessing it uses some kind of x11 portal stuff, I am not the most familiar with compositing stuff. Networking is more my forte in linux

I dont think I installed anything else besides those two packages

[pearl gale]

Just a heads up, if you use something like Koen4k-wine-tkg and disable DXVK, you can run PoE with Vulkan just fine and no need to switch to DX12

[cerulean jasper]

what is your resolution? I didnt know there was any rdp stuff that scaled properly6

[pine kayak]

For me the steam version is running on vulkan, without any additional config

[trail wraith]

isn't DXVK just for dx11 or lower?

[craggy pendant]

RDP of Exile

[thin viper]

Interesting. I might give it a try later when I get in touch with wayland again.
In my experience these packages worked for X11, but not worked with wayland. I might have done something wrong and/or things might have changed

Can you share POE screen on discord with wayland?

[ebon crystal]

tbh I would switch to X11 if I were to use Moonlight and Sunshine

[swift vapor]

yep

[pearl gale]

Ya but most of the time it is comboed with vkd3d for dx12. And many people including myself have black screen issues on Epic or Standalone if you use Vulkan with DXVK/VKD3D.

For obvious reasons

[cerulean jasper]

Ahh now I remember
The RDP protocol itself does not do proper scaling. Just how it was originally designed. Remmina the client scales just fine on wayland

[trail wraith]

you should be able to in canary as it's said to have it working natively as of a week or two ago, and there's a dozen discord clients that have screensharing functionality through being web clients with feature parity. the only reason base discord doesn't have working screensharing is due to the electron version it uses

[craggy shuttle]

7680 × 2160. And I think the scaling is handled by the client, not the protocol, yes

[swift vapor]

screensharing has been fixed as far as i know, but i use a custom client so cant confirm xD

[thin viper]

https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/171fnxd/wayland_discord_screensharing/
I see people having issues with that even in december/2024. Which the solution is to run the X-Bridge inside wayland

[cerulean jasper]

I am not sure about screensharing POE, I never looked into it. I am a super casual gamer

[odd sentinel]

Latest discord works for me. Use experimental public beta and I can record

[thin viper]

I see people love them, specially for customizing appearance. But Idk feels a bit scary to use and get banned. I believe nobody has been banned for that yet

[pearl gale]

I only use it for Wayland and pipewire support. I don't do any of the custom nonsense

Or plugins

[teal copper]

did you linux users get the new error update

login update just dropped

[craggy pendant]

you mean the message ? yes

[thin viper]

Yeah, the message has changed

[trail wraith]

discord has said that while it is against ToS, that's mainly only in there to stop malicious use of modifications, and they haven't banned anyone for using custom skins and plugins unless those modifications were malicious or to break privacy things

[teal copper]

oh shit its gone already

haha

[craggy pendant]

but now it's back to the old way for me

yep

[thin viper]

That is also my point of view

[pearl gale]

I almost regret buying it on epic. I just need to login once so I can get a steam key

[cerulean jasper]

I guess my big issue is the lack of fractional scaling.
I run a tiling window manager at 8k so my window sizes end up really weird resolutions which causes rdp to barf

[thin viper]

Nitro provides enough customization and I feel happy with it

[trail wraith]

I've been using better-discord for years, and that's the only reason it took so long for me to use vesktop

[craggy pendant]

I like the one plugin skin that puts the servers at the top so there is more horizontal space

every time i tried the -open drivers, i had to reinstall prev version through recovery terminal

coz it cant find any monitors in xorg

[swift vapor]

i've not tested open on x11 but since its the GSP firmware thats scuffed... dont think its a wayland problem

Any suggestions on how to configure upscaling/resolution for best performance?

Idk if that kind of thing works better with pairs, multiples or something like it

[pearl gale]

i normally just set FSR to Quality, and let it do its magic

[thin viper]

FSR is for AMD, right?

[pearl gale]

its for anything. i use it on Nvidia too

[swift vapor]

DLSS for nvidia - performance

[pearl gale]

but there is DLSS if you ahve nvidia

XeSS also works on anything, but its for intel primarily

[thin viper]

I am not on RTX

[pearl gale]

You dont have to be. FSR is not specific to a video card

[pearl gale]

it just is designed for AMD, but works on Nvidia. I had it on earlier on my nvidia gpu

yes, it is why i say use FSR

[thin viper]

Oh right.
I was refering to that

[pearl gale]

ya, DLSS requires RTX and nvidia.

i have that, but since i disabled DXVK-NVAPI it doesn't detect that im on nvidia and doesn't let me turn on the features

[thin viper]

Bilinear gives me better FPS than FSR

[ebon crystal]

FSR is handled by CPU. DLSS is handled by dedicated chips on the RTX GPUs

[swift vapor]

assumed newer card, forgot that you mentioned it earlier

[ebon crystal]

So anyone can use FSR.

[pearl gale]

thats fine. You can also try FSR Balanced or Performance

[pine kayak]

Yey my FOS went from 71 to 81 with FSR

Fps$ thank you

[pearl gale]

ther eis a quality setting for FSR that you can tune

[pine kayak]

Yes, it’s on performance

[thin viper]

Does upscaling works "cheaper" with a determinated resolution?

Lets say 1155x600 -> 2695x1400, which is not rounded

[pearl gale]

maybe, ive never upscaled like that, so not sure

nor am i familiar with the math behind it. Im a devops engineer. graphics programming is not something i got my head around

[teal copper]

guys if you hit enter it makes a more satisfying sound than clicking login

[safe jewel]

I haven't had good experience with DLSS on unix

[thin viper]

Explain this to Batman

[craggy pendant]

[pearl gale]

oh man, thats the same error from Epic

looks like the Steam/Epic auto-linking/redemption is not working

could be cause the account api is down along with teh website

[bronze pecan]

hmm my linux install is broken

[pearl gale]

But the client needs to make API calls to activate stuff, and the website is down

[queen mountain]

yeah, I'm guessing server weirdness. I don't think anyone's in?

[pearl gale]

probably, or they just need to get their site up

[thin viper]

We are at some instability.
Any chance you might install via steam? People are not having issues with it

[pearl gale]

the client is probably hitting the external endpoints and failing

[cold cloak]

nope, servers may still down

[pearl gale]

Or Steam/Epic is and the sync is failing

[cold cloak]

on steam, yo ucould add external game.

or wine ?

[thin viper]

The poe account might have to be linked with steam

If the game does not appear in the steam list, you can use the key

[pearl gale]

mine are already linked, but the account api is down, i just checked

[ebon crystal]

Login server is taking a while now It might be starting

[queen wyvern]

OK back in queue. bye for a while this time hopefully

[swift vapor]

if you have a steam / gepic account i think you can login @ https://www.pathofexile.com/ [once its back xD] and just set your email, then you can login via the standalone launcher... if there is any problems like the one Mr batman faced 😛

[pearl gale]

only if the site recognizes that we have EA on Steam or Epic

last i checked it did not know. nor does it know when launcehd from Epic. so not sure whats up

[cobalt saffron]

I do not like that message...

anyone else?

[tame surge]

Everyone is getting that

[round ridge]

are you getting it on the ggg launcher version, or just steam

[silver viper]

Got that as well ...

[austere belfry]

Guys

I am a new Linux user

Where can I find the exe for Poe 2

??

[cobalt saffron]

"This operation requires the account to be logged in"
Linux - Steam - Frankfurt EU

[thin viper]

Depends on where you have downloaded it

How have you downloaded the game?

[quartz mason]

Oooohh I was ingame

but couldn't move then the realm went down

xD

[queen wyvern]

RIP

[jolly star]

was thrown out from frankfurt a second ago when i hit "create"

[quartz mason]

I got my nickname ❤️

[queen wyvern]

I killed the miller at least. Then I realised I accidentally didnt make my character SSF. So I started again lol.

[jolly star]

gz! i did not :<

[quartz mason]

I guess they need to go and get a queue server for the queue server

:p

Just getting a countdown screen will cool down the masses

[round ridge]

looks like people using steam client or consoles were not able to connect, so they must have to fix some account thing for authenticating

afaik only people using native GGG client got through

[austere belfry]

No I got a key yesterday and redeemed it on their website

[quartz mason]

confirmed

[pale sable]

I got in on steam

[austere belfry]

So if we redeemed the key on their website we have to download the game from there??

[queen wyvern]

huh? I'm via steam. Got in both times

[cold cloak]

with wine, i add to steam, and launch. it is running.

[pale sable]

but just got booted back out with realm under maintenance message

[queen wyvern]

^

[pearl gale]

Just FYI, the EA acecss missing, and not being logged in on character create are issues for everyone, even windows users. Just gotta wait

[austere belfry]

Guys I can’t even access their website

[thin viper]

It is temporarily unavailable...

[pearl gale]

also known issue. my theory is the website being down is causing the EA access missing issue for Steam and Epic players

[austere belfry]

So when it will be available o can download the launcher directly from there??

[craggy pendant]

game server and website server both go up and down at the same time more or less

[thin viper]

https://x.com/pathofexile
or
#old-game-news

[pearl gale]

which is honestly a bit weird, you'd think they would split those up.

[thin viper]

Why dont you get it from steam? Any particular reason?

[pearl gale]

But it does seem there is a huge dependency on the account servers for both. so maybe why

[queen wyvern]

Its just a hold over from the way they originally made it

[craggy pendant]

I don't remember the details, but basically it was somethign about the trade site

[pearl gale]

https://xcancel.com/pathofexile if you dont want to use X.com directly or deal with a randomized feed.

[austere belfry]

I just won the key last night 😅

[pearl gale]

makes sense

[craggy pendant]

is that a revived Nitter?

[thin viper]

IMO downloading it via steam is much easier right now, as we are facing some server issues

[craggy pendant]

the UI looks very Nitter

[pearl gale]

technically xcancel never died, but yes, its a nitter instance

[craggy pendant]

👍

[frozen thicket]

Hope they're not using MySQL server..that would explain a lot

[pearl gale]

its one of the last ones left

[austere belfry]

I logged in via steam but probably that won’t give me access to steam right??

[thin viper]

Once the website is back, you can link your account with steam

[queen wyvern]

Surely at least they would use Postgres

[pearl gale]

I would hope they would at least use Postgres. Id even take MSSQL, but i hope not mysql

[frozen thicket]

Valkey / InfluxDB for everything IMO when possible

[austere belfry]

Last night when i redeemed their key on their website i logged in via steam so i will be able to download it on steam??
Because steam doesn’t give me the option to download the game

[queen wyvern]

In all reality it's probably some AWS thing

[frozen thicket]

yeah almost certainly

[pearl gale]

even if it is Aurora or something, that is fine

[thin viper]

When the site is back, you can login and check your private messages. You must have one from GGG which you can redeem a steam-key.

[thin viper]

Informix all the way

[pearl gale]

well, i managed to log into my acount. Steam and Epic are linked. I just need the client to get through

[austere belfry]

Oh

[pearl gale]

client wont work till login servers are back up

[thin viper]

Should be something like that

[austere belfry]

Ohhh I see then I quess I have to check my messages

[pearl gale]

realm downm for maintenance error. things are coming up slowly

lol, they blocked the account page too

autehtnicating user in the client. servers are almost up again

[thin viper]

https://discordapp.com/channels/174993814845521922/175003881300951040/1314707940682498089

[austere belfry]

I quess I will just start playing poe 1 but the time I finish it they will be open

[light oasis]

cant play the game since i got scammed by epic game key :V

[thin viper]

HILLOCK'S DEATH COUNTDOWN

[pearl gale]

guess i need to spam the login button until the client decides to give me my epic EA and tie it to my account

[pearl gale]

scammed?

[light oasis]

is urs like this ?

[queen wyvern]

last time for sure... right?

[light oasis]

i get the key down below

Epic client key with the note down there

sad

[craggy pendant]

Surely.

[pearl gale]

nope, mine says i dont have EA. i bought on epic. try to get it to register on the site

[light oasis]

oh if u bought on epic its gonna be fine i guess.

[thin viper]

im online

[light oasis]

i redeem the key and hype myself xD

GGs wasted so much time

[pearl gale]

just redeem it on steam, or download the standalone lauuncher

[light oasis]

its like 7 hours :V

no a friend gave me the most bottom epic key

[pearl gale]

oh, ya, it doesn't unlock EA

it just unlocks the game once you buy EA

[light oasis]

so i got scam xD

anyone throwing a key for me

[austere belfry]

How did you got scammed

[austere belfry]

Didn’t you redeem the key??

[thin viper]

Hillock has a new name

[light oasis]

by the note saying the epic key will not give me EA content but just the game client xD

[pearl gale]

ya, but thats nto scamming, thats just misunderstanding how the system works, and your friend not being able to read

[austere belfry]

Hahaha

[light oasis]

yep that what it is

he said it can play the game

meanwhile i didnt read anything and got the key to play

7hours of waiting end up wasted

SHEEZZZZZZZZZZZ

[austere belfry]

Hmmm ok I will just buy it for you not right now though but I will soon

[light oasis]

nah man enjoy the game!

[main venture]

man D4 had better launch than this

[pearl gale]

its early access, and they are a victim of their own success. Shit happens

ive been where they are, its not a fun time, both for the crazy chaos it is, and letting down our users

[rose wadi]

any linux users crashing after char select, loading first combat zone?

[pearl gale]

no clue, haven't gotten past the EA Access boss

[edgy sierra]

I got kicked trying to load into the first town just now, but I was able to load into it fine before the last set of realm resets.

[pearl gale]

looks like more resets are coming too

https://xcancel.com/pathofexile/status/1865145572875018750#m

[torpid temple]

yall usin ge?

i just had a crash on vulkan

[pearl gale]

im using tkg for now to get Epic to get me EA access, then switching to GE in Steam

[trail wraith]

if you're on nvidia and/or wayland it seems that vulkan is leading to a black screen and/or crashes, so you'll want to run on DX12 if you can change it ingame, otherwise under the proton/wineprefix, /home/<youruser>/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/2694490/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/My Games/Path of Exile 2/ (for steam) change the renderer_type to DirectX12 from vulkan in poe2_production_Config.ini

[austere belfry]

Their website is still down??

[trail wraith]

yes

[pearl gale]

wooo, im in queue and it finally linked

[thin viper]

@pearl gale
Nice!
Have you done something to achieve it?

[opaque snow]

nooooo i hit escape at the character select

<8k queue though which is good. means their capacity really is beefed up

[pearl gale]

Spam the my account website (https://www.pathofexile.com/my-account/early-access) until it renders. as soon as it renders, spam login in the client. Eventually my client managed to get a request to the site through, and give me EA

[thin viper]

Forwarded to my friend. thanks

[light oasis]

any kind person wanna give out 1 EA key to me ?

[thin viper]

I think there are better places to ask for $30
