linux-🐧

[patent fern]

It definitely looks different. The 2D lighting changes probably differ due to player position, but the text rendering and 2D art is somewhat different as well.

[weary thorn]

thats what i was thinking too, I know that windows and linux handles text rendering differently, but the textures should be rendered by the game engine moreso than anything OS native afaik

I love playing it on linux due to the way it looks, but the POE overlay tool as compared to Exiled Exchange is so much more convenient, but it requires use of Windows only API's

i also couldnt find anything trying to browse the web so I just wanted to see if anyone here had any information as to why this is, none of my other games seem to have differences like this

[patent fern]

You've got slightly different resolutions in those images too. You can use F8 to take a screenshot using PoE itself btw.

[weary thorn]

ohhhh, yeah, well linux seems to recognize my desktop as being a different resolution altogether, which seems is normal

[patent fern]

(ends up in My Documents/Path of Exile 2/Screenshots next to your INI and filters)

[weary thorn]

my monitor is a 1080p, linux says its something like 3072x1850 or something close to that

let me retake via poe2 rq

windows

Linux

here is my linux res

this is what poe2 sees

[patent fern]

That's interesting. From the looks of it, you're essentially playing in 4K on Linux, downscaled to fit your small display.

The DPI scaling of your 4K screen may play into it as well.

[weary thorn]

that may be true, im just trying to figure out why its doing that, from what ive read, could be wrong, linux sees extended displays as just 1 resolution and uses a processing layer to split them, so it may just be taking the highest res and scaling down

[patent fern]

(well, 80% of 4k on each axis, but still a higher resolution)

[weary thorn]

Yeah, I'm thinking I need to disconnect my 2nd monitor and retest, so I will do that here in a min, just to compare resolutions, but ik that 4k and 1080p have perfect downscaling ratios with each other, so wouldn't it make sense for them to be the same if it's just downscaling

[patent fern]

There's this Window Resolution that's 80% too, not sure if that's something you've altered or a default.

[weary thorn]

If you're talking in-game that's a set thing, it's greyed out, I'm running windowed Fullscreen on both so it just takes whatever the OS thinks is the monitor res.

[patent fern]

Ah, didn't notice the tint 😄

[weary thorn]

It's all good, I mean this is such a minor thing in the long run, but I was just trying to figure out what was going on. I think it's a mix of a bunch of things, my other games on Linux have the same res of 3072x1728, but their scaling makes no difference, whereas poe2 changes the scaling for whatever reason

[patent fern]

I reckon that the biggest concern would be if you're having insufficient performance as rendering at a larger resolution has some cost, especially if it's just gonna downscale it to your output.

3072x1728 is 160% of 1920x1080 by the way, which is suspiciously the same as the DPI scaling of your second monitor.

[weary thorn]

thats so odd, but actually my Linux has like 20% or so more performance compared to windows, my guess is just due to available cpu resources

may have found the answer, and yes it is due to the dpi scaling with wayland

i managed to get it to scale to 1080p properly this time

that was it, now im gonna miss my high res textures, rip

[patent fern]

UI art looks spot on now, text is still different as that's handled in part by the OS.

I know the feeling, I've played PoE1 in full 4K since forever.

[weary thorn]

Yeah, but why do certain parts of the UI change, like the rings for the runes, in 1080 it's solid, but in the scaled 4k, it has notches

[patent fern]

Some 2D art has "4k" folders in the game assets. It's possible that there might be some cutoff where it picks another file completely, or it might be sampling or interpolating between different mip levels of the same art.

Not really familiar with how the UI is built.

The lower res sockets have some signs of the notches in somewhat different positions but not as pronounced.

[weary thorn]

Odd, but understandable, game drops 15 fps with my build either way so it doesn't really matter that much. Thank you for the help. Im glad they have full Linux support, it's awesome, just hoping we get hot swap kbm and controller next

Though, I do wonder if there is a way to force a higher res like that on windows, well that's another computer project ig

[strong kraken]

if you're using the wayland backend for wine/proton (e.g., PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 on proton-ge) then I think that you need dx. I spent longer than I'd like to admit debugging that on PoE1.

[delicate wind]

Hello guys, i cannot find a way to run awakened poe trade on ubuntu... i have downloaded the appimage, i have made it executable, but nothing happens

[strong kraken]

wasn't there something where appimages stopped working on ubuntu a while back due to them removing a dependency?

not sure if that ever got addressed

@delicate wind does it output anything if you try running it from the terminal?

[delicate wind]

i installed Buzzite, everyting works fine now

thank you for your time 🙂

[strong kraken]

lol fair, have fun

[fresh jacinth]

Is it just me or is there still a lot of issues with steam deck optimization?

Seems like big mobs just leads to problems in being able to respond to stuff.

[strong kraken]

Wdym by "problems in being able to respond to stuff"? What kinds of problems? And responding to what stuff?

[obtuse tulip]

does anyone have a problem where alt tabbing changes the window resolution to something weird and minimizes? wayland arch kde

nvm fixed by setting to windowed fullscreen

[topaz jackal]

im using steam poe and have proton enabled and iv tried all the version from experimental to 5. it just says loading then the play button turns green again. no screen or anything, iv reinstalled, verified integrity and even coppied the config i had on my previous install and changed the dx12 to vulcan. nothing is working

it does also seem to be other games but not all having the same problem

note i am on zorin

[fading topaz]

You got a proton log?

[brisk bloom]

hi

anyone got issues with awakened-poe-trade since yesterday?

something like this?

[fading topaz]

Not sure I follow. What's the issue you're pointing out?

[fresh jacinth]

Should I be playing with proton 9-0-4 or Hot fixes?
I got a good GPU and CPU but for some reason I still have issues with mobs and I changed my settings to low for the graphics.

NM, looks like the game dosnt even work on the other proton settings = (

GGG, are you guys n gals gona be improving the GPU processes for us Linux players. Wondnt hurt to stop the memory leaks as well.

[fading topaz]

Try toggling between DX12 and Vulkan for the game's renderer. Also check the pinned message

[outer pagoda]

their taskbar goes crazy from apoet reopening its own window whenever a program with "path of exile" in the name is focused

[brisk bloom]

The flickering between desktop and poe window. It's solved with today's KDE update though 🙂

[brisk bloom]

Use proton-ge-10-10 and switch renderer to vulkan

This way you will have max performance.

[jolly star]

Really hope they put in a newer fsr version, this one is so bad its not even funny :(

[vast dome]

Anyone run into an issue with Lutris and it replicating out a path like this?

[frigid badger]

hi guys i have quick question, anyone have had an issue or an idea how to solve an issue where game has far higher cpu latency than gpu and uses like 25% of cpu resources?

[raven pier]

I am working on a Path of Exile archipelago randomizer. I am looking for people to test it out. There are problems with linux compatibility (because of python libraries that I am using). I want to support linux, but don't have a linux install (other than steamdeck ha ha)

If you want to help me DM me, or post in the "Archipelago After Dark" discord ( google or dm me for link, bot removes the server link) under future-game-design > path of exile

[outer pagoda]

so what exactly gets randomized in archipelego? since everything is serverside, it can basically only provide checks to other games, no?

[raven pier]

We are limited in Path of Exile to be a read only implementation, we can't modify anything in the game directly. We can however read character data (from an API), read the client logs, write to an item filter (and audio files for when things drop).

With Archipelago (AP), the items you get in poe will send checks. Each time you enter a new zone: it will see if you character is using appropriate gear, if not it will change the item filter and let you know how you are breaking the rules. Otherwise it will search for new items that your character is holding and send those "checks".

Locations are:
Finding certain base item types that drop from monsters (e.g., a specific sword base)
Leveling up

Items (unlocks) are:
Available Characters
Ascendancies
Passive skill points
Ability to equip certain rarities of gear
Ability to equip flasks
Maximum allowed number of linked sockets
Utility gems (auras, movement skills, curses, etc.)
Skill gems (active attack/spell abilities)
Support gems (gems that make skill gems more powerful)

Configurable goals are:
Finish acts / Complete the campaign
Kill endgame bosses

Using the API we can check that your character is using the right gear, and only progress if you are doing so.

[outer pagoda]

wouldnt that run into rate limits? also i dont know if item filters update that fast, or live reload

if you do have all that sorted i would be down to do testing w/ it, i have arch setup for hollow knight already @raven pier

[analog phoenix]

this could still mean that your CPU simply is the bottleneck. for CPUs its not as simple as checking if its running at 100%.

CPUs have multiple cores running in parallel. software runs only on a single core by default. developers can use multiple threads to utilize multiple cores. a single thread can not run on multiple CPU cores at the same time. but some specific tasks are very hard to or cannot be split between multiple threads. this means if one important thread uses 100% of a core and other threads depend on its data, then other threads have to wait.

[frigid badger]

i highly doubt this is the case, i mean sure maybe poe2 is not utilizing all my cpu cores but sitting on so low usage is kind suspicious. it's not a game from 2010 that simply dose not use multi threading like shogun 2 tw

and i dont have a single overutlized core when playing poe2

[patent fern]

PoE has a bunch of thread pools for jobs. I forget if the client log mentions how many of each priority.

[analog phoenix]

how did you measure that?

[frigid badger]

with perfromance monitor

i can check also with mangohud i doubt it will show something different but maybe it will and i'm delusional that game from 2024 should properly support multi core cpu 😄

[analog phoenix]

i agree that 25% usage sounds weird. what cpu do you have?

regarding checking for overutilized cores: CPUs can move threads between cores for heat management. if the update speed of the utilization info is too slow it might never show 100% for a single core and instead it shows being split among multiple cores.

[frigid badger]

Ryzen 7 5700G

[outer pagoda]

im observing similar behaviour in poe2 with a 9800x3d, utilisation appears to have very little correlation with cpu latency so it could be a RAM or deadlock issue

[patent fern]

If you want to look at utilisation, a system-wide sampling profiler that can actually show when threads are scheduled might tell some of the story. Not sure if Linux has any accessible ones past perf.

In programs that do memory mapped I/O, a lot of what looks like CPU load at the surface level could also actually be disk or memory system contention.

[outer pagoda]

actually seeing memory usage with the ingame profiler may be tough

since proton will basically always report ~5gb DRAM usage

perf/system monitor for me is kinda just showing whats expected, with 2-3 cores hovering around 25-50%

but still basically no correlation with frametime spikes, only average, which was sitting between 7ms and 11ms for me, spiking up to 22ms intermittently with gpu at 13-17ms

[raven pier]

Nope, we don't run into rate limits, I query the API each zone load, and we use local item filters that are built on the fly. I send "/itemfilter" commands to reload the filter in the client

[ocean atlas]

By default, people are notified for both PoE 1 and PoE 2.

To customize your pings and channels, either:

• Go to or #rules-and-info and double-press the :bell: icon to remove the the All-Notifications role or
• Go to id:customize and toggle your answer for the "Ping me for both games " question to enabled, then disabled.

Either of these will remove the (formerly) default role and instead you can select either the Path of Exile 1 or Path of Exile 2 roles you want. If you want neither, go to the #rules-and-info channel instead of onboarding and you can remove both as well. This may cause some channels to disappear, you can re-add them in id:customize and use 'Show all channels'

[gleaming remnant]

Hi! A cachyos user here 😅

[deft lantern]

Anyone manage to get awakened Poe trade working in latest ubuntu

[cold cloak]

hello cachyos user

[gleaming remnant]

no, but in cachyos works fine. maybe it's something about permissions?

[visual badge]

hey is there any x-mouse alternatives for wayland? something to just replace mosue wheel up/down with left click. been looking everywhere and cant find to find anything

[shrewd pewter]

I thought Wayland uses libinput to handle all user inputs: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Libinput and you should be able to monkey around with that to customize your inputs.

My distro (PopOS) is still on Xorg, so I just used xinput to remap what was scroll up/down to left mouse click. Here's my shitty script that I can toggle on and off:

4 / 5 == scroll up/down; 1 == Left mouse click
I think I had to look that up in the man page or just listing out the xinput for button maps for my mouse. Which I think is that starting '9' on my system, could be different on yours. It's been a hot minute since I've had to touch this.

#!/bin/sh
TOGGLE=$HOME/.togglescrollwheel

if [ ! -e $TOGGLE ]; then
    touch $TOGGLE
    xinput set-button-map 9 1 2 3 1 1 6 7 8 9 10 # sets wheel up and down to left click
else
    rm $TOGGLE
    xinput set-button-map 9 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 # sets things back to where they were
fi

[strong kraken]

libinput is hell to deal with

maybe something like keyd/kmonad would work

those do it at the kernel level (they eat up the normal inputs and re-emit the correct ones as a new device)

[visual badge]

yeah im using input remapper

it works but sadly resets the mouse sensitivity

working on making inputplumber working, but bla

its a hard task

but rn i dont need it

[fair pivot]

you can patch your compositor

[ashen lance]

is there a way to make this button do something? for me it does nothing and i've been trying to set it up with mime types but i genuinely do not understand it

[fading topaz]

Could be a browser thing?

[ashen lance]

Probably not as it's Firefox

[fading topaz]

I more meant like try with Chromium or something see if there's any difference there

There are definitely web things that only work on Chromium. Not sure if that'd be one of them

[ashen lance]

It's definitely not as that worked on Windows. I suspect it might be something regarding wine not being detected or smth

I tried both pob installed with wine and in a bottle with bottles installed as a flatpak and neither worked

[fading topaz]

huh interesting. Does the flatpack version run through wine too?

[ashen lance]

It basically runs wine inside the flatpak sandboxing I think

[strong kraken]

iirc pob1 uses pobfrontend

[ashen lance]

Pob1 does, pob2 does not

Pob2 is not even available anywhere really

[strong kraken]

what?

[ashen lance]

Pob1 is on AUR with pobfrontend and a flatpak by itself iirc, Pob2 is nowhere to be found outside of running it inside a wine prefix

[strong kraken]

yeah, pob2 is the one that's not available anywhere

ah, edit

[ashen lance]

Ye corrected

Ye

[strong kraken]

yup https://github.com/flathub/community.pathofbuilding.PathOfBuilding/blob/428d1a53bb8bbb433f86d6970521a2787ada0061/community.pathofbuilding.PathOfBuilding.yml#L84-L91

ok, after some debugging i finally got it to work

xdg-mime default 'Path of Buildings--Path of Building--1756304395.93945.desktop' x-scheme-handler/pob

this is the command I used

similarly, adding xdg-mime default 'Path of Buildings--Path of Building-PoE2--1756304666.930091.desktop' x-scheme-handler/pob2 makes it work for pob for poe2 too

hi guys, am I alone missing Guild Stash ?

my guild members can access it in the world, but not me..

[fair pivot]

i set this up today, if youre using hyprland it's fairly easy to do builtin

[strong kraken]

I'm pretty sure that only works for xwayland windows

[visual badge]

nah i'm on kde sadly

been thinking ab switching to hyprland tho soon

[fair pivot]

wine runs things under x11, and this is only something i need to work for poe

and you can just use something like ydotool which supports wayland (im too lazy to setup ydotool because you need to run a daemon)

[strong kraken]

not with the experimental wayland backend

but yeah

It works for now, but isn't an ideal solution in the long term imo

[fair pivot]

i dont think proton supports that yet either

[strong kraken]

proton ge does

[fair pivot]

i should make a hyprland plugin to dispatch events like this more natively

[iron vessel]

oh wild. I was just running into this issue myself. problem is, I can't get the links to open in Firefox. works fine in Brave

[idle nimbus]

Having frequent unexplainable crashes. I'll play for 12 hours with no issues, then my game will suddenly start crashing every 30 seconds... Does anyone have any idea how to even start to diagnose this?

Switching renderer and proton version does not seem to affect it

[red kayak]

Anyone have issue with compare function for equipment not working right? (Info tooltips overlapping each other)

[brave seal]

I used to play with my xbox controller all the time. Haven't played with it in a long time but restarted with playing 0.3... now everytime I turn it on the bluetooth won't connect to it unless I uninstall/reinstall all the bluetooth apps, everytime I turn the controller off and back on. What could've happened? It's really annoying. Linux mint, 5600x,rx6600. No dual boot.

[outer pagoda]

these crashes affect windows too on a wide spectrum of hardware, noone seems to be getting usable error logs from it

[idle nimbus]

Thanks for letting me know

Was losing my mind

Right now crashing literally 5 seconds after starting

It's infuriating

If anything, glad it's a known issue

[outer pagoda]

i had no crashes on first 3 days, then it occasionally became barely playable

could get maybe an hour of normal gameplay before 2 hours of crashing every 5m

[gleaming remnant]

No problems with cachyos. I wouldn't know how to help you

[idle nimbus]

@remote haven That's kinda been my experience in general. Fri-Sun I've had zero crashes and I put in a unhealthy amount of time in, then starting Monday I had the occasional crash, which yesterday hit a peak where I crashed about 20 times during Sekhema trial.

The most annoying thing is not being able to pinpoint what's causing it

[odd crater]

any path of building 2 for linux?

[robust patio]

It is on lutris

[gleaming remnant]

@odd crater I use poe 2 exchange appimage

[fair pivot]

just run windows portable through wine

[jovial current]

Is there any actual performance difference when running poe2 through DirectX vs Vulkan?
(I heard Linux doesn't actually run DirectX directly?)

[idle nimbus]

My performance on dx12 and vulkan is identical, if there is a difference I'm unable to notice it

[somber anvil]

why does it happen

and how to fix it

ubuntu

[somber anvil]

ping me

[strong kraken]

have you tried using different versions of proton?

[gleaming remnant]

Use Proton Experimental 😉

[somber anvil]

yeah

it was first thing i've done

now i know it's somehow with disk problem

some games installed firstly on ntfs disk don't launch

[strong kraken]

oh yeah don't use NTFS with proton/wine

@somber anvil if you really must absolutely do it, you can follow https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/wiki/Using-a-NTFS-disk-with-Linux-and-Windows, but it's strongly recommended that you do not

[somber anvil]

i have 256gb disk with fat

[strong kraken]

afaik FAT (all variants) is also unsuitable. try ext4 or btrfs.

[somber anvil]

wait lemme check what exact disk format i have

it's ext4

[strong kraken]

is poe2 on the ext4 partition?

[somber anvil]

I'm downloading it right now

[fair pivot]

proton runs d3d12 through vkd3d, which is a translation layer from d3d12 to vulkan, so it's vulkan anyways. basically you're just paying the small overhead that vkd3d adds (in most cases)

so there's no difference, it's vulkan whichever you choose

[patent fern]

There can still be relevant differences in how the game drives D3D12 and how that translates to Vulkan, vs. how the game directly drives Vulkan.

[strong kraken]

Last I tested, d12 (d3d12) had better performance on my system (RX 7700S) than native vk

[jovial current]

Sometimes when i start up poe2 on steam then steam will start compiling shaders.
this can take a very long time.
Does poe2 actually use this compiled shader cache? does it speed up the game?

[analog phoenix]

steam doesnt compile shaders, do you mean steam downloads pre compiled shaders? nvm im stupid

its an option you can disable. i think its only useful if your cpu is fairly meh

[jovial current]

this thing

you're saying it is downloading pre compiled shaders`?
it says i'ts processing something atleast

and it's taking 99% of my CPU

so i don't think this is just a download

But the question is if it actually does impact poe2 client performance?

[analog phoenix]

seems like i misremembered something and confused it with something else. yea steam is compiling shaders here. disabling it means that those shaders are compiled during game run time instead. how big the impact really is depends on your CPU. might cause some stutters when new shaders need to be compiled. disabling it barely made a difference for me.

[jovial current]

alright, thanks 🙂
i just wasn't sure if poe2 client was actually using this shader cache

but my computer is very bad, so i need any performance i can get.

[analog phoenix]

i mean you can just try

[jovial current]

just by myself i won't be able to determine whether it is helping

so was hoping someone had any actual insight into this

[jovial current]

yes, i think i understand that.
But the question was not really in general whether shader caches are useful.
It's a specific question about whether the poe2 client is using steam's shader cache.

ah okay, i didn't know that.
My computer is slow so i was hoping this could help.

[shell elm]

processing vulkan shaders at startup on linux only happened with 0.1, it disappeared after that

now it never caches them; I've filed a bug report because it leads to stutters

[somber anvil]

is there any known fix to stuttering on linux?

[strong kraken]

try #linux-🐧 message

also make sure your steam is up-to-date

[somber anvil]

this pops up when i launch

[strong kraken]

what are your launch options?

[somber anvil]

and i had steam overlay enabled

all the time

[strong kraken]

try LD_PRELOAD="" %command% instead

if you don't include %command% it assumes you're trying to append that to the commandline

since it's meant for CLI options

[somber anvil]

thanks it worked

now let's see if fps are fixed

[odd crater]

any update on pob2 for linux??

[odd crater]

ok. i will try.

[feral grotto]

I am encountering some insane freezes in certain zones, namely "Heart of the Tribe" near the entrance and "Kingsmarch" on the way to the ship (but not always) and I assume it's due to shader compilation because what else would it be... CPU ms goes way up and shader bar goes to full. Is there a way to turn off async shader compilation?

This also happens sometimes with abyss stuff but not too often

[shell elm]

Okay, found how to cache shaders with nvidia driver \o/

__GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SIZE=100000000000 %COMMAND%
will cache 100GB

[feral grotto]

ok the spot in "heart of the tribe" is not shader related i think. the cpu times just jumps to 400ms and the game freezes (still updates though so I do die after some time)

[shell elm]

with shader caching it now starts up 10x faster for me

[feral grotto]

Does it not cache by default?

[shell elm]

Steam is supposed to but doesn't, and nvidia driver caches only 1GB by default

[next tapir]

hi guys, do we have any item helpers working with linux? like poe overlay 2 ?

[jolly star]

exiled exchange 2 works

[idle nimbus]

Are you running flatpak Steam? Had that issue as well, but .rpm works fine

[jovial current]

no, not running flatpak.
i think i actually went into some configs to increase the amount of threads it used to process shaders.
it made it faster, but also taking up a lot more cpu

[strong kraken]

honestly I recommend just disabling shader precaching. I've had this issue on multiple games and multiple machines, and disabling it made no significant negative impact.

[strong kraken]

I guess coincidentally all my machines have been full team red, so that does create a bias in my sampling

how could it possibly be dangerous to not load some libraries. it might break some things (notably, the steam overlay), but I'd hardly call it dangerous

to the point that the system will automatically clear LD_PRELOAD for some operations in the name of safety (suid binaries come to mind)

[strong kraken]

no, LD_PRELOAD tells the system which libraries to link before doing anything else.

look you're technically right in that if you make a pathological system then clearing the LD_PRELOAD can be an actual problem, but I have yet to see a single system where that is the case but the user is not well aware of what LD_PRELOAD does. in practice, all this will do is remove the steam overlay (which is the goal, since that is broken) and maybe a few other things like mangohud if the user does it wrong, but it won't break their system

I'm pretty sure selinux does not depend on LD_PRELOAD, to the point that it can disable also LD_PRELOAD

okay. s/depend on/use

you're just nitpicking now. we've had this conversation before, and it also went nowhere

I'd be for changing the pin to mention that it will disable steam overlay and related functions, but saying that it might be "dangerous" is just FUD

you're right only in ways that don't matter

do you know of a single case where it is dangerous and the user doesn't know what LD_PRELOAD is?

that is not "dangerous"

what modules would that be, and how could that possibly increase security when a malicious program could just clear the envvar before execing a child?

what security does steam overlay provide? I was replying to the first message (steam overlay) not the second (selinux)

likewise. that is probably for the better.

[outer pagoda]

we disable it due to a bug with steam replay which caused the game to always take 50ms on the cpu per frame

also setting LD_PRELOAD="" isn't dangerous unless you magically fuck up your own system environment to the point that nothing gets interpreted as something

[hollow pier]

Anyone else experiencing performance problems (high CPU load up to 99% tho using Vulkan) since 0.3.0c? My fsr option is gone since the update as well.

Before 0.3.0c I was quite happy with poe2 under Linux (mint).

I updated to Nvidia 580 too, but switched back to 575 and problem exists there too

[odd crater]

does this work for anyone else on linux?

i cant get it to work anymore. on windowed mode, window fullscrene, fullscreen ,etc. KDE Wayland on Arch with Nvidia

[odd crater]

i dunno but poe2 heated up my pc so much I had go to buy a new heatsink . it was hitting 96c before now its hitting 70 lol

it hits the GPU HARD

[odd crater]

so therefore I would like to limit this to 60 (as most of the game in juiced maps it cant go higher than that anyway) To save some heat

[edgy sinew]

have you tried mangohud's fps limiter?

[odd crater]

yeah that would work just wondeering if anyone else can get the in game one to work

i uninstalled mangohud since steam does the same thing now

besides the fps limiter

would be nice if steam added that , like on steam deck

[strong kraken]

the steam deck uses gamescope for that, which you can also use on the desktop

[deft whale]

Are there any overlays that work decently with a WM? Preferably without a compositor?

[storm skiff]

Anyone got Path of Building 2 working on Linux? mine was working earlier, now it seems to crash due to trying to auto update

[storm skiff]

I get bunch of messages like this. maybe I'm missing some wine libraries? Tried Bottles, Lutris etc ```0138:fixme:winsock:GetAddrInfoExW Unsupported cancel handle
0138:fixme:winsock:GetAddrInfoExCancel (00007FFFFFB084B8)
0138:fixme:secur32:get_enabled_protocols handle TLS parameters
0138:fixme:secur32:get_cipher_algid unknown algorithm 23
0138:fixme:secur32:get_mac_algid unknown algorithm 200, cipher 23

wait, running through Lutris worked once I shutdown my PoE2 game client (running thru Steam)

also I sometimes get an error trying to launch Spectacle (KDE's screenshot tool) while the game's running but restarting the game usually fixes it for some time

something GPU / driver / ??? related? anyone encountered similar things?

[hollow pier]

i had high cpu load since the C patch. im using steam with 10.0.2 beta proton with 580 nvidia driver under mint

the high cpu load magically disappeared tho

but i cant alt-tab cause then it crashes which is quite annoying

[shell elm]

Works fine for me.

I use plain wine

[feral grotto]

Does anyone here use Exile Exchange 2 on Hyprland? The default Ctrl+Space Shortcut doesn't work for me, the character just dodge rolls for me. Any ideas what I have to change to make this work?

[feral grotto]

using it via web interface works. It's not optimal but I guess I can live with that

[polar spruce]

Isnt it shift+space?

[storm skiff]

Yeah I got it working with Lutris later. Though I still have the issue that Spectacle or PoB2 won't start if PoE2 has been running for too long

[timid cedar]

Lol I do not see my cursor on Linux, shame of my Karui cursor

[shell elm]

GPU memory leakage probably there. I had a website open that would slow down my poe2. Took me ages to figure out that one page was leaking GPU memory.

[jolly star]

Maybe someone can figure out if you can get it to work if you set up the right window rules, but i cant so i just run it in browser

[feral grotto]

Yeah got it confused, tried both and none works though

[little pagoda]

i'm pretty sure EE2 doesn't work with wayland? running it on cachyos/kde adding launch option PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 breaks it

[strong kraken]

EE2 has native linux support. you don't need to run it through proton.

and the native support does (kinda) work on wayland

[pallid coral]

do you guys know a good way to get poe2 working on steamdeck?

game crashes and lags

[vague mesa]

Thats just normal poe2 behavior

[little pagoda]

for general performance/avoiding stutters and crashes (on linux desktop fwiw) i've had good luck with turning off dynamic resolution, upscale mode either fsr or xess, and image quality ultra performance

[cold cloak]

MESa have benn modified, i lost FPS during a week, now it seems better

[stiff pumice]

How do I add a loot filter to poe2 on Linux?

I’m on Ubuntu

[outer pagoda]

either follow one on the website, use filterblade (sync to account) or navigate to ~/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/compatdata/2694490/pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/Documents/My Games/Path of Exile 2

[stiff pumice]

thank you

[signal bolt]

Hi Soon-to-be Linux User here, Can anybody inform me if its possible (and easily feasable for a total Linux Noob) to get PoB, Price Checker (Of any sort AutoHotKey or Overwolf idc) running on CachyOS (or Bazzite)
I am leaning towards cachyOS but not 100% set on it yet (Dual Boot on different M2s, I need Windows for Work and Studies)

[strong kraken]

PoB1: yes, easily (natively available on flatpak and AUR). PoB2: yes, a little trickier (need to use wine/proton). Overwolf: no. AHK: not directly, but there are alternatives depending on your setup.

[signal bolt]

Thanks for the Answer, what pricechecker do ppl on linux use then is there a specific one?

[strong kraken]

Awakened PoE Trade for 1 and Exiled Exchange 2 for 2.

Both are cross-platform

Depending on what desktop you use, you might run into issues with global keybinds. I think most people just copy things to clipboard and manually switch between windows rather than use the global keybind.

[eternal creek]

Is there a way to disable the GGG logo vid on startup? My game locks up trying to play it on vulkan, but directx12 casues textures to not load, half the town looks gross. My current solution is to edit the config to directx12 before launching, once in game, i swap back to vulkan. I have to do this every time to start the game. This seems to be a new issue since .3 started, or at least It wasn't a problem every time i started the game.

I'm on steam, using proton experimental

[jolly star]

Try --nologo

[eternal creek]

sweet, thanks, I only had one - , thought it didn't work in steam

this works, i got right to the menu and doesn't crash with vulkan anymore.

[patent fern]

There's other videos in the game too, I wonder if you also crash on skill previews and the cutscenes between acts.

[eternal creek]

no, the logo is the only one i've ever crashed on, and its consistant

but its only with vulkan

[gleaming remnant]

@signal bolt for price checker use exiled exchange 2 in AUR.

[strong kraken]

Yeah I mentioned it two messages below the one you replied to.

[signal bolt]

Hey thank you for answering! I got cachyOS up and running, PoE I + II and the correpsponding Price Checker aswell. Downloaded them from github and load them through console. The Game itself runs 20% to 25% better compared (especially the 1% lows are so much better) to W11 (I am rocking all AMD). The price checker are really snappy aswell, I love it! There were some problems along the way, because I lack some basic linux knowledge, but it was a very rewarding experience now that everything runs so well 🙂

[signal bolt]

All I am missing atm is a good Fan Control Software somehow CoolerControll does not recognizes my Fan Sensors (lm_sensors aswell) but Fan Control on W11 works on all of them.

[halcyon moat]

Does your bios have fan curve support? Some modern bioses do

[signal bolt]

yes I believe it has the option
EDIT: yes it has it

[signal bolt]

it took me a good nights of sleep but now it clicked thanks solved my problem xD

[halcyon moat]

have fun bro

[obsidian violet]

yo i wanna play poe 1 standalone on my arch, can someone point me a tutorial or a post i can get help ?

[analog phoenix]

i installed it via lutris. works out of the box for me

[obsidian violet]

i tried it but couldnt make it work, ill go for steam client, just merged my steam account and standalone account, thnx tho

[analog phoenix]

what do the error logs say?
did you try different runners via lutris config for poe?

[obsidian violet]

it was about dxms is not found or smth i asked chatgpt and tried what he says but i got exhausted and gave up

[hollow pier]

does anyone elses poe2 crashes when alt-tabbing ? drives me crazy and is the only reason i need to switch to windows.

it worked fine days ago but occurs again after some time

[obsidian violet]

i cant open social section on steam client, i merged 2 accounts one of them crashes and one of them dont when i press s, anyone has a solution for this ?

[analog phoenix]

i asked for logs and if you have tried different runners a couple days ago. we need more info to help you with your specific problems

[obsidian violet]

update: turns out its because i had a friend request sent to me thats why it crashes

[midnight marten]

Are people playing poe2 native or via proton? I've been playing proton and was wondering if native might be better.

[shell elm]

Playing via steam

[midnight marten]

Well, yes, but you can select compatibility > proton or not

[patent fern]

There's no Linux client, it has to be via a Wine-like in some way.

[shell elm]

I use proton 9.0-4 on steam, it works best for me

[strong kraken]

if you select it in compatibility, it just means that it will use the specific proton version you specify, rather than the one steam wants to (which iirc is proton hotfix)

[midnight marten]

So is there not a native client and proton only?

[strong kraken]

yes

[midnight marten]

Rip

[strong kraken]

why?

it works very well through proton from my experience

honestly even games with native versions often work better through proton

[craggy creek]

proton is a way more viable option than expecting developers to maintain 2 versions, with valve's work on the translation layer there is only a 5% to 10% performance decrease for most games.

if you're experiencing low performance its cause the game is currently very badly optimised

[jolly star]

Some games even get better performance on proton than on windows

[proven needle]

POE2 ran slightly better for me on Linux last time I tried

It may be slower in theory, but windows has so much bloat that it doesn't matter

[strong kraken]

I'm honestly surprised BG3 got a native "steam deck" port lol

[craggy creek]

it was only because of a devoted dev that started on it in his free time and then the dev studio greenlit making it an official thing

[hollow pier]

I have the same feeling (!). Playing poe2 on fedora and I love it. Proton/steam/valve all the way

[craggy creek]

i've been playing poe2 exclusively on my gentoo install and it runs like butter 🙂

[late solstice]

is any of you expiriencing major FPS drops on heavily juiced maps?

i start to get crazy lags whenever i want to play delirious t15 maps specially around abyss and or corrupted maps

as in my game drops to 6 fps and if i press ESC menu pops up several seconds later it creates this crazy input delay

im playing on bazzite and i have very good hardware i just build this pc for around 1.8k euros and it just struggles wiith high mob density.

im just curios if you guys have similar problems

[shell elm]

what GPU?

I experience bad frame rate drops but I'm pushing it with running at 4k

a big problem with nvidia GPUs is lack of caching shaders, which you can force in steam on linux

[covert moss]

Can I play this on linux???

[fading topaz]

Yeah totally

[strong kraken]

yup. both games. https://www.protondb.com/app/238960 and https://www.protondb.com/app/2694490

[shell elm]

plays great on linux

[covert moss]

That's good to hear I have a nice AMD GPU just for linux games

I use an RTX for windows, I dual boot

[patent fern]

There's a bit of movement for open-source NV drivers recently, isn't there?

[fading topaz]

There is, based on the kernel thing Nvidia set up. It's only supported on some of the more recent cards though

[patent fern]

I forget what it's called, way too close in pronounciation to nouveau.

Nova.

And yeah, I've heard a whole lot of hubbub around clock management for older GPUs and apparently this having a higher baseline of card.

I've been on AMD since my 1080 Ti, so quite out of the loop ^_^

Last I tried to main Linux the open AMD drivers didn't have audio output over display connectors due to some licensing shenanigans only documented in some side note on the Arch wiki.

I've been a bit tempted to install Linux on my main PC again now after having poor high-end network throughput on Windows, but dual-booting in a proper UEFI Secure Boot era feels too painful with MOK keys and all that mess.

(I picked up some cheap 25G Mellanox NICs to get higher speeds to my closet but the Windows drivers can only receive 7-10 gigabit/sec unless I go for jumbo frames; debian runs at wire speed)

[covert moss]

i think I'm going to turn my computer off and try to get it to run on linux

why not

[covert moss]

really??

[patent fern]

Not first party, but Nova seems quite promising over Nouveau given the new foundation it can build on.

[covert moss]

I'm installing Path of Exile on linux right now. No reason to play this game on windows!

[patent fern]

Haven't really looked closely, but I've seen a bunch of Brodie videos on it.

[hollow pier]

what exactly do you mean? the option in steam to pre-cache or start option commands? 🙂

[shell elm]

by default nvidia drivers only cache 1GB, it ignores whatever the steam settings are unless you add a commandline option

on linux of course

I use this for 100GB of shaders __GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SIZE=100000000000 %COMMAND%

made my game and map loading 10x faster

of course I only set it that high because I have tons of spare space, there's no need to go for 100GB

[covert moss]

I'm looking to play with other Linux users, I don't have any friends to play with

[covert moss]

why do you do this?

[shell elm]

Because as I explained, the shaders cache with nvidia drivers on linux is capped at 1GB by default, so it has to rebuild the shaders every time I load the game, and on every new map. With 100GB of shaders cache, they're always instant. Press F1 and look at the shaders bar. If it's big it means it's building a new set of shaders; when version 0.3 came out it took 1 minute to load the game up, and was always slow to start and laggy on new maps but now takes 5 seeconds to start the game and is instant on new maps with no lag.

[bright fern]

what gpu do you have? i havent had any issue with shaders / slow loading

[shell elm]

5070

[bright fern]

hmm

i have a 3090

[covert moss]

I'm installing this on my linux computer tomorrrow and hopefully overclocking it

I don't think i can overclock my intel cpu though its locked down

look at all those sexy pipes!

[outer pagoda]

most modern "overlocking" is undervolting these days, so shouldn't really be much of a problem unless you're using an office motherboard

[covert moss]

Can you explain in more detail? The only think i've overclocked was my pi 4 and 5 and I just wrote a file withthe mhz and voltz from what i remember.

[outer pagoda]

there's stuff like r/overclocking for that

[covert moss]

Chat GPT works pretty well too

[outer pagoda]

do not take tech advice from chatgpt

[covert moss]

I always do!

its only fucked me a few times

I set my pi 4 on fire with chat gpt

[little pagoda]

i'm on amd cpu/gpu but i just let the motherboard/bios handle everything for cpu overclocking. for gpu overclocking in linux i use LACT and superposition benchmark

[bright fern]

anyone using exileui on linux?

[covert moss]

I am with this build:

[covert moss]

I don't think i could have installed this without the magic of my ranger

All the fans are going the wrong directions though.

[visual badge]

does anyone use any chaos recipe overlays? if so, how? i only use awakened poe and its kinda buggy (wont open on its own when i price check, have to press price check button then open it manually through shift + space)

[fading topaz]

For chaos recipe? What does an overlay help with that custom loot filter doesn't do?

[dusky knoll]

i've found the auto-hide mode to be buggy too. So i've started to not use it and use the "Open without auto-hide" and have less issues. I think its just a Wayland thing though not completely sure

[visual badge]

https://github.com/ChaosRecipeEnhancer/ChaosRecipeEnhancer?tab=readme-ov-file

[visual badge]

ahh ok thank you ill use this <3

[fading topaz]

Oh. That kind of thing.

[visual badge]

yeah just adjusts the loot filter i believe

[fading topaz]

IMO seems overkill, but then again I also don't bother to do chaos recipe

[visual badge]

[round ocean]

Hi there how most safe way to Play Poe on Linux because from support i not recieved answer clear about Lutris,Play on Linux , proton or even winę ?

[brittle frost]

Proton/Wine work pretty well, if you are using Steam, it will install proton for you. I've been using Steam/Proton for quite a while now with no issues.

[round ocean]

I mean i not recieved answer they banning IT or not

Some dev corps had diffrent approach about it

[brittle frost]

yeah, they don't mind. Here's a thread of someone that did get a response from support: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2499423/page/1

[round ocean]

Because today i tried contact to support and there been sort of bot xD

About it xd

@brittle frost btw thx for help

[brittle frost]

no problem, I imagine support is pretty busy leading up to league launch

[round ocean]

Yeah

Because i goes under test of performance

And seems minę ps5 guaranting better expierence how a irony xd

[brittle frost]

Just an FYI, if you are going to play on Playstation and PC, the microtransactions aren't shared between them. So if you buy any MTX or stashtabs, they will stay where you bought them.

[round ocean]

Yes i saw it

[odd crater]

How are you guys using path of building?

I am launching path of building 1 with wine, its fine. But I cant copy paste from my OS into it. I can weirdly copy FROM it into my OS though

[dusty bay]

are you using bottles? that's what i've been using and it's been fine for copy/paste

[edgy sierra]

If you're using kde plasma it's a bug in the new version. Been reported and fixed just waiting for 6.5.2 or for your distro to backport the fix

[shell elm]

Sometimes copy paste works, sometimes it doesn't which is infuriating. What I found works is copy, then if doesn't paste select the text you've copied in the clipboard again from the systray icon, and then paste.

[queen wyvern]

I'm a little dirty but I'm running everything through steam's proton.

[odd crater]

Yes. I am using Plasma 6.5 on Arch. ok, good to know.

[edgy sierra]

If you really need to import a PoB you can still use the X11 session.

[woeful basalt]

Hey guys I'm thinking of switching from windows to linux dist. I want to know if both 1 and 2 works on linux without any issue or performance and what dist is best for POE and in general gaming

[woeful basalt]

what dist u using

[shell elm]

I'm using kubuntu, but any modern distro is fine

mint is a popular and easy first choice

performance on all distros should be the same

[woeful basalt]

iC thanks

[shell elm]

and poe1 and 2 work just as well on linux as windows, sometimes better

through steam that is

[toxic spoke]

Does anybody here have experience with using Awakened Poe Trade on Linux?
I am running into an issue where it won't go into the background and instead blocks me from doing anything in the game.
I am using KDE Plasma 6.5.1 on CachyOS

[brittle frost]

I'm on Ubuntu, and it all worked out of the box, the only thing I had any trouble with was my sounds, but that's probably just my hardware or something, and after a little googling I got it fixed. I only switched to Linux earlier this year, but I'm really liking it.

[deft forge]

Hi all, Arch Linux here, downloaded the awakened trade app image, put it on my desktop, launched it but it does not seem to be working? First time trying all this poe stuff on linux

[toxic spoke]

Did you make it executable with "$ chmod a+x Awakened-PoE-Trade-3.26.101.AppImage" ?

[deft forge]

I did not, is that normally how that gets handled? I did find this though in my googling which sadly I dont understand - https://github.com/SnosMe/awakened-poe-trade/issues/1647

[toxic spoke]

Yes, check https://appimage.org/ for more on AppImages
But thanks for the link, that might help me solve my own issues

[deft forge]

Im currently troubleshooting running the file with XDG_SESSION_TYPE='x11' in front of it, but I think im butting into my appimage issue because idk what im doing

[amber pagoda]

Hello! Trying to get https://github.com/flathub/community.pathofbuilding.PathOfBuilding into shape. I'll be afk a bit now, back later tonight...

[solid stone]

if you run the file via the console do you get any ouput?

[deft forge]

I finally did, I was missing what I understand to be a program (FUSE2) to allow it to run, probably something to do with making it an executable

[solid stone]

yeah fuse2 is required to run the appimage. so you have it working now?

[deft forge]

I tested it and it seemed to work! But I left it up, walked away, and then it said it crashed so I wont use it till maps

[visual badge]

it looks like the awakened poe does not open in the newest version (3.26.102) on linux. can only use the website version

[visual badge]

this worked for me. thank you so much!

[deft forge]

Yep!

[amber pagoda]

oooh https://github.com/meehl/rusty-path-of-building looks nice

[patent fern]

Oh hey, it's one of the pobfrontend forkers

Enjoying the recent PoB changes? 😄

[amber pagoda]

yeah I noticed some stuf...

it's probably not so bad, but I really don't know the original code base so it's a bit hard to maintain

[patent fern]

Some enthusiasts came out of nowhere and did a bunch of font work.

[amber pagoda]

didn't get the new tooltip image header things right...

[patent fern]

It now has a bunch of DPI scaling functions and needs WebP support, of the top of my head.

[amber pagoda]

but yeah, the rusty version looks great. see 4 contributors over there also

[patent fern]

And yeah, probably some of the image API added earlier I guess.

[amber pagoda]

I actually got DPI scaling in pobfrontend a little while ago 🙂

[strong kraken]

oh hey it's ernstp

[amber pagoda]

but anyway, this rusty- versions looks like something to focus around

I'm thinking of just putting it in the Flathub

[strong kraken]

yeah, i'll give packaging it in nix a shot later

flatpak would also be good

[amber pagoda]

I'm the owner of https://github.com/flathub/community.pathofbuilding.PathOfBuilding

[odd crater]

I cant copy paste my regex into the g ame and its really messin me up RN

[tardy trail]

Sup Linux people

[odd crater]

How do I make c opy paste into the game work asap

Im on kde

[amber pagoda]

have you seen me in the PKGBUILD? 🙂

[strong kraken]

yeah

[edgy sierra]

Switch to X11 session until it's fixed in the Wayland session.

[woeful basalt]

Can someone tell me how can i have PoB and Awakened POE ? I'm new to linux to learning still 🥹

[brisk geode]

Easy way for Pob is to just get the windows portable version and launch it with wine, awakened poe just download the appimage for it

[obtuse tulip]

does pobc show a blackscreen for anyone else? im on arch, both flatpak and aur blackscreen on both xcb and wayland

hyprland+nvidia if that matters

[marble viper]

download the .appimage from here: https://github.com/SnosMe/awakened-poe-trade/releases
then chmod +x the file and run it (./awakened-poe in terminal)

[marble viper]

for pob, go here: https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding/releases and download the exe, then install it through lutris

anyone having huuge loading times this league? i'm talking minutes to load a town for example

[shell elm]

are you on nvidia? poe1 may be suffering the same issues as poe2 in that regard

if nvidia, there is a workaround

link if interested: #linux-🐧 message

[patent fern]

Seen various people in the general chats on this server with trouble loading into towns mostly, no idea what they have in common.

[marble viper]

Yes, on nvidia, I'll try this

[barren token]

Hey, I guess this message is one year old, but did (or anyone here) managed to figure out what is this?
I don't even know how to google it properly, and I don't have any KDE shortcuts with alt. The sound it triggers is "bell-window-system", but searching for it only returns results about alt-tabbing crashing games.

[strong kraken]

what happens if you press alt+d outside the game?

might be related to https://docs.kde.org/stable5/en/plasma-desktop/plasma-desktop/shortcuts.html

[barren token]

No bell sound. In Vesktop, nothing happens. Zen Browser opens the URL bar.
I noticed that in Tibia also. If I have spells shortcuts to Alt+Something it also triggers the bell, but unlike PoE the game doesn't "stop" listening the mouse events

My guesses (didn't open the link above yet) would be something with xwayland, or wine stuff. Let me read the link

Yeah, I can't trigger any of those shortcuts from the link

But it has to be some KDE stuff. I don't have Gnome to check, but that doesn't happen when using Niri (but I don't like playing on Niri or Hyprland)

[toxic tartan]

Am i alone with issues with awakened poe trade? Doesnt on new version

[barren token]

What issues? Mine is showing some "Not recognized mod" when triggering Ctrl+D search on it

But the rest is apparently working fine.
Oh wait, is it about the focus?

[toxic tartan]

Mine just isnt working properly as overlay. I cant click on poe anymore when its running

Shortcuts not working too

[barren token]

It is this then https://github.com/SnosMe/awakened-poe-trade/issues/1647#issuecomment-3474500715

Edit the shortcut to make it run with x11. It is some electron update that messed up things

[toxic tartan]

Must be. Will try soon thx

[barren token]

If you are using KDE and opening it via the Menu context, not the Desktop icon, you can the ozone parameter using the Menu Editor.

[odd crater]

why does the new version of Awakened POE trade totally break my game. I can no longer interact with the game at all.

No controls or mouse works

if I use the version from a few days ago then it doesnt have this issue

[odd crater]

oh cool ill try that

[odd crater]

yes

exactly

[odd crater]

wow

lots of things messed up on wayland lately

running it with this flag fixes it, yes

[outer pagoda]

i had to do this on amd, and it seems to also affect windows users atm

[shell elm]

I mean you could use less than 100GB,I only set it to that because I have plenty of disk space and I want all maps to load as quickly a spossible

but the driver default of 1GB is woefully inadequate, and steam itself it seems just no longer caches shaders itself

[outer pagoda]

yeah its a bit all over the place, someone is saying the way steam client handles files exacerbates the problem with fetch spam

which, at a volatile 100-300mb/s drive usage on my pc, seems to be the case

[shell elm]

0.3 poe2 literally went from 5s startup to 1minute for the game itself and every map , added shaders cache just fixed it

I hear poe1 has now joined that problem

[outer pagoda]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/1005314486305046540/1434270599684816946/Path_of_Exile_-_2025-11-01_22-57-22.mp4?ex=6907b816&is=69066696&hm=b7cb56b6e59972bb43b35fdf5d48e8fef78969251bb43920cc881f52170ffa7b& this is on windows

the pc in this vid is quite weak but the graph trends same as my 9800x3d/rx6700xt setup

[shell elm]

aye, shaders bar is the giveaway

[barren token]

Well, excluding the KDE and Wayland bugs we get from time to time, PoE runs, on my machine, better with Linux than when I had windows.
But those bugs can be quite infuriating yeah

The "alt" error I have up there is the worst. But if I avoid misclicking alt I'm fine.

[toxic tartan]

I've launched with cmd argument, its better but still not fonctionnal, hard to describe

like the popup appears behind poe, and goes away if I alttab

[barren token]

Someone on that github thread mentioned something similar, but I haven't faced this issue. Only the inability to focus the PoE screen which the ozone parameter solved :/

[toxic tartan]

it kinda works if I move awakened on my 2nd screen but its annoying af

literraly hindering my league live

[barren token]

I've never used, and I can't vouch for these either but there is a new kid on the block called xilehud. It seems it has trade overlays too.
But it seems kinda packed with features like Lailoken and etc. And some other people seem to use the overwolf too.

Maybe I'm "fine" with the hindrances of the Awakened PoE because I'm more of an ssf guy I almost never check the prices of my drops

(And maybe that's why I'm poor every league)

[toxic tartan]

i hope i can fix it somehow

i was an early adopter, always loved it, but issues since im on linux

[barren token]

By the description I think I know what you mean. Whenever I Ctrl+D or Ctrl+Alt+D and item, I have to refocus the PoE window. I can't "chain" the shortcut like Ctrl+D Item > Esc > Ctrl+D.
I need to do Ctrl+D > Esc > Click PoE > Ctrl+D

I'm playing window mode, not fullscreen borderless. Maybe it is worse when borderless

[toxic tartan]

tryed fullscreen and bordeless, not one better

[iron vessel]

I'm in the same boat. Exiled Exchange 2 and PoE2 work just fine. I've basically copied my configs over for Awakened PoE Trade and PoE, and having the same issue

[toxic tartan]

if anyone finds a fix let me know

[iron vessel]

yeah still messing around with it

scratching my head as to why poe2 works just fine with exiled exchange

no amount of window rules or exec args seems to do anything different

[toxic tartan]

tried using heroic but not working

[iron vessel]

its weird. it seems like a focus issue but if I use the window picker, it detects PoE and not the overlay... so why can't I focus on PoE 🤔

[shell elm]

I'm not playing poe1 but that sounds like the usetakefocus bug in wine, what version of wine is your config set to in steam?

there may be a way to fix that

[toxic tartan]

found a way guys

need to launch with this command line --ozone-platform=x11

and then create a rule using window management under kde settings

[iron vessel]

oh. yeah that didn't work for me 😂

[toxic tartan]

see 2nd step sharmoot

it fixed it

FYEAH

[iron vessel]

yeah I've got the same rule

[toxic tartan]

really?

its working now for me

[iron vessel]

I wonder if it's my PoE rule

[toxic tartan]

oh maybe

but this is a rule for poe awakened

[iron vessel]

yeah mine is more or less the same except the skip taskbar

[toxic tartan]

copy the exact same as i did

[iron vessel]

still no dice 🙁 though I should verify the args are respected

[toxic tartan]

not sure if you should include appimage in name

force the skip taskbar

remove your poe rule if you have some, i dont

[shell elm]

For reference if it is the usetakefocus bug in wine the registry entry that fixes it is

"UseTakeFocus"="N"```
If there's further interest I'll find how to edit the proton registry entry

It's fixed in version 10.3 of wine, and proton is still based on 9 I believe

again I'm just guessing based on the symptoms you guys are describing, as a linux dev

[iron vessel]

dumb questions incoming. not really familiar with wine 😂 how do I go about changing this? would I find it under $WINEPREFIX/...? or would I need something like winetricks?

[shell elm]

depends on how you're using wine, but if it's through steam, the wineprefixes are in ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/compatdata/$someid/pfx

[iron vessel]

🤔 I see a system.reg user.reg and userdef.reg

[toxic tartan]

would your fix be related to the issue we were discussing with awakened poe trade?

[shell elm]

that's what I'm talking about

or on ubuntu ~/.steam/debian-installation/steamapps/compatdata/

[iron vessel]

it sounds like it. the issue definitely seems like a window focus problem, and the window rule doesn't seem to be respected

[shell elm]

you can add those two lines at the end of userdef.reg

and relaunch the game, see if it helps

or user.reg

[iron vessel]

bummer. no dice. time to update everything and see what happens, I'll report back lol

[shell elm]

oh well

did you try both userdef and user, and were you sure it was the poe1 prefix?

[iron vessel]

only did userdef, confirmed the prefix. I'll try user as well

oh. maybe this is why

[HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareWineX11 Driver] 1762042250
#time=1dc4b8d25342e08
"UseTakeFocus"="N"

I think it wants \\ instead of /?

[shell elm]

ah yes, windows layout :P

[iron vessel]

I'm no linux expert. but it's why I'm here and not on windows 😛

[shell elm]

I'd drop a regedit entry here, but it is dangerous importing registry files from random people so I won't be doing that

from what I see it's only one backslash

[iron vessel]

weird. yeah all of mine are two

[shell elm]

but maybe after import it's two, try it

sec lemme check myself

[iron vessel]

for example, an existing record has this
[Software\\Wine\\Fonts\\Replacements]

[shell elm]

[Software\\Wine\\X11 Driver]

wait

after import it's two, you're right

I've edited my post above

[iron vessel]

anyway, added to both, still no dice

[shell elm]

bah

[iron vessel]

oh hang on

[shell elm]

hanging

[iron vessel]

so after launching and reloading mine looks like this still
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\Software\\Wine\\X11 Driver]
so I shouldn't have the HKEY prefix? is it just whatever my default reg editor is doing 😂

[toxic tartan]

I reached red map on a 1c budget, imagine now that I can trade

[shell elm]

when I import the .reg file, it just has software, no hkey...

just keep adding shit till it works lol

[iron vessel]

gonna try escaping the space in X11 Driver

[toxic tartan]

i had to force x11 for it to work

[shell elm]

This is what it looked like when I imported the .reg file

I see no escape on x11 driver

It's probably just not the droid you're looking for

Sorry, I tried

[iron vessel]

all good, thanks all! going to keep messing with some other things and see what happens

[iron vessel]

@shell elm one more question if you don't mind. I suspect this might be my problem... I use the cli tool zap to "install" AppImages. it just does some linking and creates a desktop file for me. but I realize... the desktop file points to a shortcut of the AppImage, and not the AppImage itself. could this cause the --ozone-platform=x11 to not get forwarded or something?

[shell elm]

I'm not familiar with zap, lemme google

there are ten different apps called zap

[iron vessel]

😂

time to ditch it

[shell elm]

I see, it's a package manager for appimages

hrm appimages generally run in sandboxed environments, have you tried running it without the sandbox?

[iron vessel]

yeah no dice there either which makes me wonder if it's a shortcut issue not respecting the args?

[shell elm]

I mean it's a bit of a security bypass, but it's not huge

[iron vessel]

.... I also wonder if it's because of how I use KRunner? 🤷

yup. that would be it

sheesh that was annoying. so I use KRunner to launch everything. I think it's launching the AppImage directly? somehow bypassing the desktop record. if I just double click the desktop record it works fine now

[shell elm]

you can also prefix ELECTRON_OZONE_PLATFORM_HINT=x11 to a command as an alternative to --ozone-platform at the end

well I dunno what platform they are, this is electron (such as discord)

most of this stuff is out of my sphere, so not sure if I'm helping or not here

but if you've figured it's krunner, all good

[iron vessel]

yup just need to figure out how to fix that haha but at least I have my overlay working!

[woeful basalt]

anyone else games gets not responding when u have awakened poe open and then try to switch tab to steam or browser?

[frosty acorn]

is anyone else having issues with very long load times between zones?

[shell elm]

shader caching issue, you can work around it by launching it with extra driver shader caching

#linux-🐧 message

I thought it was nvidia only with poe2 but people have reported it helps with amd drivers too on poe1

[frosty acorn]

so do you simply paste it into the terminal?

im not familiar with this topic

[shell elm]

you enter it into the options in steam

sec

When you click on properties

[frosty acorn]

Im currently launching through lutris, where would i paste it?

[shell elm]

standalone client through lutris?

[frosty acorn]

yes

[shell elm]

not familiar with lutris interface, lemme check

what does the game options window look like for you

screenshot it

[woeful basalt]

anyone facing it?

[shell elm]

I'm not familiar with this interface, so this is purely a guess

[frosty acorn]

ok so it seems to load faster but the shader bar still is maxed out

[shell elm]

it should be faster on next run

it has to build the shaders once

[frosty acorn]

ah i see, so the load times will get shorter as the cache matures?

[shell elm]

yep it renders the shaders, caches them to disk, so next time it just loads them rather than renders them

assuming I've put it into the correct place, as I said this is the first time I'm seeing this interface

you'll know for sure it's working if next time you enter a zone you've been in, the shaders bar just blips briefly and drops to zero

[frosty acorn]

thank you so much

been a terrible league start so far so this helps a lot

[shell elm]

yw, I'm not even playing it, but poe2 v0.3 was afflicted by this and it was excruciating

I'm not even sure why it became a problem and wasn't before

but it's clearly related to something ggg did

[frosty acorn]

yeah i didn't seem to have this problem last league so its def smth GGG did

[shell elm]

I have a pretty powerful PC and it was ridiculous I was waiting around on every transition and game start

[marble viper]

question: shaders for steam games are stored in ~/.steam/steam/steamapps/shadercache/<app-id> right? so if i remove the <app-id> folder to clear the shader cache it should recreate it, but in my case it doesn't, so i don't think as of rn my poe is storing any shaders, any ideas

[fading raven]

does anyone else have these freezes where all the animation in the world is suddenly stuck/frozen for a few seconds and then play back all at once? While freezing I can still use all the menus, only the 'world' is frozen but it also freezes any movement input which has lead to some frustrating deaths. I'm very new to the game and maybe there is an obvious fix I missed.

[strong kraken]

I do get occasional lagspikes. If you press F1 in the game it should show a performance chart in the top right corner, so you can look at that to see what's the cause (for me it's always network). I recommend immediately pausing when there's a lagspike like that.

[fading raven]

just tried it and you are right. I did not even consider network problems since it looked like a graphical bug. Thank you!

[strong kraken]

I'm pretty sure it's a server-side issue

[fading raven]

problem is that also means I can't fix it

[strong kraken]

yeah. I just pause the game. that usually prevents anything from happening and gives you unlimited time to react when the game comes back

having the performance chart up also lets you figure out when the game comes back, so I recommend having it always on

[fading raven]

Yeah I guess this is the way. It's still a bit annoying but I can live with it

[wispy moat]

Anyone else having massive CPU Latency spikes this league? All of a sudden it will shoot up over 1kMS and the only way to fix it is to change zones, or logout and back in. Has been happeing on whatever version of Proton Steam decided on and GE9.27, same exact behavior. Actual CPU load is not anywhere near maxed.

edit: Deleted shader cache, going to run a few more maps and see if that helped Deleting ShaderCache did not fix the issue.

[patent fern]

There was a thread in ggg-tracker ( #ggg-tracker ) that sought WinMTR traces for offending instance servers.

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-post/26426750

[wispy moat]

Doesn't seem to be a server latency issue, seems to be CPULatency according to the performance graphs. Whole thing is super frustrating, starting to think it's my build (Ranged Animate Weapon) since it seemingly happens in high demand areas, first noticed it consistently in Ritual so small area, but-tonne of minions which include 17 AWd firing off arrows like OG TornadoShot

[outer pagoda]

is your drive bar also showing crazy numbers and shader bar filled?

[wispy moat]

Its fluctuating constantly, but when this issue happens looks like it flat lines

[outer pagoda]

in poe2 some towns would have more gfx loaded than the cache supported and i'd have 500ms frametimes on my 9800x3d and drive bar would be in the high hundreds

had similar issue this league w/ poe1 but not anywhere near as excessive

[wispy moat]

Yea this started in Ritual and has escalated to pretty much any hairy encounter, and I think it's pretty telling even when I can get the game to pause the UI is still unresponsive

[outer pagoda]

have you tried adding this to launch params? to see if it works

this also alleviated the issue for some of my friends on windows and for me on amd

[wispy moat]

I tried adding something similar but the game wouldn't launch, I'll play with it again and report back

[outer pagoda]

u need %command% at the end of environment args or steam borks

[wispy moat]

Ahhh

[outer pagoda]

generally should be like env_arg=val env_arg2=val %command% launch_flag=val

where launch_flag is like -vulkan for dota or whatever

[wispy moat]

Also going to try jumping on one of my standard characters and popping rituals on the map device so I can test it and see if it's only happening on my League character

[wispy moat]

Didnt fix the issue, still happening in maps

edit: Added LD_PRELOAD="" to my launch options, gunna see if that helps. Just throwing everything at the wall atm Didnt help

Going to make a Forum post about it

[woeful basalt]

Anyone on PopOS not able to use awakened poe bcoz the to bar and dock is visible and clickkng any button of game do nothing?

Have to quit awakened poe for it to work

[brisk geode]

Same issue as discussed a little bit above, it has to run in x11 mode. https://github.com/SnosMe/awakened-poe-trade/issues/1647

[woeful basalt]

Tried already. The dock and overlay still gets visible and the game goes not responding

[stiff pumice]

hey guys, im new to Linux, and is playing POE on steam. Is it possible to get path of building to work on here?

also how does loot filters work on linux and how to add them xd

[fading topaz]

Path of building can either be run through wine, or with one of the frontends with Linux

Loot filters are normally installed through your account, no filesystem access required

although you can do it the old file way if you really want

[stiff pumice]

how do i do it through my account ?

never tried that before actually

[fading topaz]

Are you using a filter from Neversink/filterblade?

His website lets you easily save it to your account

[stiff pumice]

well i dont use any filters at the moment

cause usually before i moved to linux i did it manually

[fading topaz]

Were you making your filters manually too?

[stiff pumice]

nah nah, prior i think i used neversink or one called phoenix filters i think

a rather old loot filter tbf lmao

[fading topaz]

Gotcha. Well on neversink's website, you can login with your PoE account, and then save the filter to your account from there. Easiest way IMO

[stiff pumice]

and once that's done they'll just apper in-game?

[fading topaz]

Correct. You can select it from the Game tab in the options menu

[stiff pumice]

also for a noob such as myself im rather "newish" to POE what filter stage should i be using ?

(currently in act 1)

[fading topaz]

If you want super basic, just pick Neversink Semi-strict. Actually, there's a super easy way to do that

Just go to https://www.pathofexile.com/item-filter/ladder/follower

You can click on the 2nd option there and click Follow. Will add it directly to your account too

[stiff pumice]

wow

didn't even have to relog game

https://github.com/meehl/rusty-path-of-building is the new rage, although if it's not available on your distribution then it's just easier to get the one from flatpak (linked above)

[wispy moat]

ooo, didnt know about this! I think the flatpak is just this wrapped up (noticed the in btop, didnt know what rusty-* was lol). AUR is a version ahead (SHOCKED SHOCKED....not that shocked......)

That said if your new to Linux would maybe still rec the Flatpak if it is indeed the same thing just packed up nicenice

[toxic tartan]

is anyone else having major issues with cpu caching shaders non stop? first time its happening to me on poe

tried deleting the cache, verifying files etc

[wispy moat]

What does that end up looking like? I am having an issue where my CPU Latency spikes to redic levels, and sometimes (but not always) co-incides with the shader bar being full. Usually happens in Ritual

[outer pagoda]

@toxic tartan

should prob pin it or the explainer post in the meantime til the issue is rectified

[toxic tartan]

Pretty its on their side and not linux only tho

Everything was smooth yesterday night and today unplayable. Doing rituals with 1fps slideshow

[strong kraken]

oh yeah, I didn't realize https://github.com/meehl/rusty-path-of-building/issues/7 got closed

i forgot to subscribe to that issue

[outer pagoda]

yea the fix still should work regardless of hardware ideally

[fading topaz]

You might have more luck posting on here: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/58

[toxic tartan]

Do we know if they are working on it?

[outer pagoda]

/shrug

[wispy moat]

AHHH GL SHADER

GL is for nVidia

AMD should be Mesa?

Supposition from this comment: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/8926

Yooo, this may have done something!

MESA_SHADER_CACHE_MAX_SIZE=10G %COMMAND%

Nope didnt fix it 😕

There's also:
MESA_GLSL_CACHE_MAX_SIZE=

I just don't have the heart to test it atm. Will try it in the AM tested didn't help

[dense gate]

Hi folks, I'm with a problem with the Awakened Trade overlay on linux, if anyone knows anything to help me I'd highly appreciate, I use OpenSuse Tumbleweed, KDE on wayland, and am trying to use the AppImage version of the overlay, and it just don't show up, I don't know why or how to fix it

[fading topaz]

It currently has issues running on Wayland

[dense gate]

Is there some workaround?

[outer pagoda]

search "xwayland" in here

[dense gate]

I see, so I just need to run the awakened trade in xwayland, don't need to change anything for the poe game itself? (I've searched and I understood it like that but am unsure if it is correct)

[polar spruce]

man rusty pob looks so pretty

[odd crater]

Copy paste is randomly fixed on Arch POB 😄

[odd crater]

Play the game in windowed mode, only way I can make it work nice.

Guys, Idk what to do anymore...

My PC config is:

Ryzen 5600x
32 GB RAM, 3600 mhz DDR4, Corsair
SDD 1 GB nvme 6000mb/s reading

*All drivers updated

• Game runing in lowest graphcs possible...

I am having LONG loading screen times (sometimes more than 60 seconds) while going to town or people's hideouts, even in campaing maps....

Is there any config that I could try to improve it? I dont thing my PC is the problem...

This is happening in POE 1 and 2

[wispy moat]

Anyone else have AMD CPU/GPU and have something to help at all with the Shaders issue?

[somber idol]

I've has some luck so far with this:
MESA_SHADER_CACHE_MAX_SIZE=10G MESA_GLSL_CACHE_MAX_SIZE=10G %COMMAND% --waitforpreload
I've done two breaches without dropping to 1 FPS with it.

[signal bolt]

HEy I loaded the new appimage of awakened trade, made it chmod +x an executable and run it in terminal, it loaded but does not connect with my poe. i am using cachyOS and it wont repsond please help.

[magic citrus]

Yeah me too it isn't grabing any key press

[wispy moat]

Tried this one and still havin the same behaviour. Literally looking at spending stupid money to upgrade to AM5 so I can just play the stupid game (but I bet I hit the same issue 😕 lol)

[outer pagoda]

aye i would hold off on that till ram prices normalize, i got these for $180aud in april

[marble viper]

Ggg broke something this league, lots of people with loading time problems, some had success with increasing the shader cache size
#linux-🐧 message

[bright fern]

hey wondering if anyone has had the same issue, I was running things fine earlier this league and then after rebooting my PC I now launch into a blackscreen and an error of 'getAdapterInfo'

I was able to get into the game this morning by unplugging one of my monitors which someone suggested online, but that is not even working for me now

if anyone has any advice on things to try lmk

if nobody has ideas, it could be helpful to see someones launch config production_Config.ini file to see what the default display settings look like

[frosty acorn]

Anyone else have any issues with being unable to copy and paste in any textbox in the game?

[brisk geode]

scroll up, need to start it in x11 mode

[odd crater]

Suddenly awaked poe trade doesnt work anymore

Even with this. One problem after another 😭

Is there any other alternate price checker?

[bright fern]

try --no-sandbox ?

[odd crater]

yes taht fixed it

this works for now.

[sand lintel]

Had this problem and it was a driver issue, I had just changed gpu and had to install open drivers

Things took a while and some reboots/updates to download all dependencies too

But after like one day of tweaking with the help of an ai, it was running well

Also, I'm having an issue running sidekick. I launch it but nothing happens, do you have an idea of what it might be ?

[bright fern]

interesting, I guess I can try newer open drivers

could you tell me which driver version you're using now?

[sand lintel]

yup

[bright fern]

hm im using the same ones right now

are you running poe via steam?

im using steam and the latest GE proton, but i tried a few others too

[sand lintel]

Yup via steam with proton experimental because I was testing stuff but it probably runs on proton ge

(it did before I switched gpu)

It may be an issue with directx too

[bright fern]

how might i try and debug this

ive spent the last few hours searching online and using ai tool and none of the advice seems to work or give me any real diagnostic

[sand lintel]

Try running vulkaninfo | grep "GPU id"

see if it shows your gpu

you might need to update wine too

But usually this is included in proton ge :/

Also try sudo dmesg | grep -i nvidia if you've got an nvidia and check if it shows any weird log

(replace nvidia by amd if you don't have an nvidia)

[bright fern]

vulkaninfo shows my gpu, but also two other things (one i think is integrated graphics on cpu, the other idk)

GPU id : 0 (NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090):
GPU id : 1 (AMD Radeon Graphics (RADV RAPHAEL_MENDOCINO)):
GPU id : 2 (llvmpipe (LLVM 20.1.2, 256 bits)):

and no weird logs from dmesg

[sand lintel]

Hm looks alright by me :/

[hushed kelp]

Hello, is there anybody who use Awakened poe trade in Linux ? I donwload appimage but app is not working. I am getting this error when I run appimage. Do anybody have clue how to solve this issue ?

[toxic tartan]

If some is having issues with shaders and cpu load, ive switched from vulkan to dx12 and its fixed. Ggg fucked up the vulkan build this patch.

[rigid mica]

I've been experiencing hard crashes in Poe1 with DirectX12 for the last 3 leagues in which I most of the time just have to reboot. Vulkan doesn't hard crash but the game tends to become unresponsive/very stuttery (2fps mostly) when there's a lot going on. 5800X3D/5700XT/32GB RAM/CachyOS with KDE Plasma/latest GE-Proton. I have tried using both X11 and Wayland.

Have to add that after the crash happens the driver tries to restart but eventually the continuous attempts just fill my screen with artifacts.

[stray geode]

funn enough, but changing to directx12 helped a lot with less crashes and less load o nthe system

3060ti on Ubuntu with Gnome

[cursive pike]

I have the same problems. DX12 hard crashed my PC and Vulkan drops me to 1FPS in most endgame scenarios. Previous league was running flawlessly (except for heavy juiced endgame maps). Must be some issue related to the 3.27 patch.

[rigid mica]

Sucks but at least I'm not alone with this issue it seems. What are you running?

[cursive pike]

7950X3D/6950XT/64GB RAM/NixOS/No DE/lates GE-Proton/X11

[rigid mica]

X11 shows on reboot the error address etc. but I don't know if anything can even be made out of it. This also happened with a 3700X which I changed before 3.26

I'm actually interested, did you ever have USB dropout issues with your motherboard? @cursive pike

[cursive pike]

yes i have but had no time to investigate them

[rigid mica]

yeah I still suffer from those, got Asrock Taichi X570. I dug a little and the code most likely refers to CPU/MB/RAM fault but since I have replaced everything but motherboard...

[woeful basalt]

How are u guyz dealing with this issue of steam not responding if u open browser and do something like trade site, or accessing any other tab and when return to poe the games gets not responding( i think its due to wayland or something?

[fading topaz]

Is the game in windowed fullscreen?

[barren token]

I play on Wayland, KDE buy I don't have an issue like this one. I'm on CachyOs, using flatpak Zen browser. Playing on window mode though.

My only real issue is the stuttering on blight ravaged, but well... Those are not known to be lag free anyway

[woeful basalt]

yes

even on window mode same thing its like going to PoB in lutris and when i come back it says not responding.

in my PoPOS about ut says x11

[somber idol]

I don't seem to be having shade issues anymore after swapping to DX12, but I'm still dropping to ~2FPS in breach content, with both cpu and gpu usually at the exact same value, 500+ms. It's at the point I have to exit to character select after alith destroys the hive.

[odd crater]

guys i have a funny question

my hand hurts from spam picking up harby shards for like 5 days but i wanna keep farming it

am i allowed to set mouse wheel to spam click and i just roll the mousewheel on harby loot instead of clicking so much?

if so, how do i do it on linux?

i know theres autohotkey on windows

its too much clicking 😭

ok It was surprisingly easy, I used this
https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper

will this get me banned??

[brisk geode]

No, not as long as one scroll = one click

[rigid mica]

Vulkan works now okayish for me, still drops FPS significantly when a lot is going on but doesn't go unresponsive. Updated to Beta BIOS, set AMD P-State EPP to performance (fairly sure it already was though), RCU Lazy off and reduced my GPU powerlimit a little. @cursive pike if you want to give these a try.

[odd crater]

i set left click to the windows key also, feels more comfortable. i tried space but then ofc my spacebar didnt work anywhere else

[odd crater]

yeah i mean i drop to 10-20fps during fully juiced harbinger. idk what kind of supercomputer you need to run it good.

[rigid mica]

that's about what I got with DX12 but there's the risk it will just hard crash my PC

I might try again now that I noticed change in Vulkan if it still does hard crash

[edgy cypress]

is anyone else getting the same problem as me with awakened poe on kde? I used to run it without problem but its now asking to add global system shortcuts.

and the shortcuts do not work

with the overlay but the open in browser option works fine

[brisk geode]

scroll up, needs to be opened in x11

[edgy cypress]

i was using it fine with wayland as well
just recenntly it stopped working

[odd crater]

yes, it does not work right

this is how i've been running it using wayland

XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 /path/to/appimage --sandbox

then it works normally

[brisk geode]

Yeah, one of the latest updates changed the version of one of the dependencies and it broke. I just installed it from AUR and then added "XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11" in the kde menu editor and it has been working fine ever since

[balmy obsidian]

ran into the same issue after switching to CachyOS today
found this:
https://github.com/SnosMe/awakened-poe-trade/issues/956
appearantly ( as of 2.5 years ago) Wayland isnt supported.

[hushed kelp]

yes, already figured out that wayland is not supported. So I install x11 and it works.

[cursive trellis]

hey this may be a dumb question, but im new to linux. is there a way to make awakened poe trade open automatically with poe the way it does on windows? or do i have to run the x11 command in terminal each time to load it?

[fading topaz]

If you've launched it once, it should stick around in the background, regardless if PoE is running or not

Or is that not what you mean?

[cursive trellis]

ah ya i didnt think to just leave it running, was just used to it launching at the same time as poe does

other than that, is there a way to run the appimage without running through terminal? as in like a shortcut i double click with the arguments already attached?

[fading topaz]

What flavour of Linux are you running? There's a few different ways that can be done

[edgy cypress]

for anyone having the same problem:
issue for me is exactly same as this ->
https://github.com/SnosMe/awakened-poe-trade/issues/1662

my diagnosis is that libva vaapi error is the main culprit

working command ->
XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 ./Awakened-PoE-Trade-3.27.104.AppImage --no-sandbox

now after league start of grinding i can finally check my quad tabs of loot

[rancid condor]

anyone getting vk::Queue::submit: ErrorDeviceLost error while playing poe 1 with proton-ge with a nvidia card and vulkan? I can't use D11 because the shaders cause 1fps lag spikes, and d12 is really bad with nvidia cards.

[odd crater]

How do you do it exactly in the kde menu editor? I can never get the damn thing to work right

This doesnt work

But this in the terminal works

XDG_SESSION_TYPE=x11 /home/zeeb/Downloads/Awakened-PoE-Trade-3.27.103.AppImage --sandbox

I cant figure out how to do the same terminal command in kde menu editor

Also doesnt work

Doesnt work in enviornment variable part either

[brisk geode]

This is what i use

[odd crater]

thanks, maybe the fact i am not using it from aur but an appimage its being weird

i ended up just making a darn script, then adding that as a menu item 😅

now it works without having to run it in terminal can just open it from menu

kde menu editor should be able to handle this stuff but i repeatedly face problems with it and have to resort to these shenanigans >_>

[brisk geode]

Would not be fun if it just worked 😉

[west vigil]

oh I'm coming here because I'm a noob that can't get awakened to work.... I'll read that conv lol

[edgy cypress]

@west vigil this should work

[west vigil]

flawlessly, thank you guys ^^

[cold cloak]

is there for PO2 on catchos X11 a version ? hwo is it supported ? ( and same for path of building ?)

[keen summit]

Hey, I cannot get PoE1 to load into any zone, start and character selection works, no matter if going to town or fresh new character, during loading screen I crash back to desktop

I installed PoE2 earlier and it works completely fine in Vulkan with full default settings

In Proton log I get this error err:font:alloc_font_handle out of realized font handles but even installing the Fonts via protontricks does nothing

(Full AMD System, tried also DOOM 2016 that works without issues) I also tried different Proton Versions and als Proton Ge 10-25

Anyone else got an idea?

[cold cloak]

i have no error, check lib2 multilible, and steam. refer to forum associated to your linux version ( manajaro, cashyos, etc...). whit is your video card ? By the way, there re a bug acutally in POE2 at start , refer to bug section

[fading topaz]

Try DX12 maybe?

[keen summit]

6900XT, but I finally got it working with Lutris

just needed all those settings apparently

[keen summit]

Actually it’s not about these settings, it now also works with default proton experimental, some other setting fixed it

[quasi lily]

Hi guys, anyone tried tinkering around upscale options in game? Does it ok? With new changes from goverlay i intended to give it a try, so im looking for exp.

[shell elm]

which game

for poe2 I still find NIS gives the best performance

with a 5070 at 4k

[fossil frost]

It does ok. 👍
For upscaling or dynamic resolution I would highly recommend anything other than bilinear/NIS, they are 💩.

I've been using XeSS -> Optiscaler FSR 3.1.5 + OptiFG -> FSRFG.

Goverlay probably downloads older Optiscaler, so I don't know about FG there, but don't let it overwrite game files or spoof DLSS.

[shell elm]

Okay I wasn't really upscaling, I use NIS to downscale when necessary

[quasi lily]

Thanks, so i try it with poe1. Setup with DLSS -> FSR 3.1.5/4.0.2 + FSRFG, and XeSS -> FSR 3.1.5 + FSRFG. With my eyes, I've seen no much changes, except the frame gen function. Normally with my 2k monitor 144. It would drop from 144 to 40-70fps under stress (deli, influences), now framegen keep it more stable; so this is a win (on paper). I dont use scaling because I dont see 1k -> 2k diff much. My card is 9070xt fyi. I see you highlight "don't let it overwrite game files or spoof DLSS" . I disabled it in govelay. But in optiscaler overlay, it still show "spoof DLSS", so I dont know, can you share more about it?

[spiral pine]

I've been having really bad crashes whenever i hit a bigger harbinger pack, and i'm unsure if its a linux, or PoE engine problem.

I have a ryzen 9 5950x, and a 9070xt, so i feel like my setup should be able to handle these things, but if i shield charge to the middle of two harbinger packs, and start casting FRoSS, my CPU latency will start rising, to ~1000ms, before the game just dies. I dont even see the cpu usage in htop, which makes me suspect engine issues.

Tried proton 9, 10-ge, etc. Turned off music in the config, vulkan and dx11, changing cpu scheduler, setting performance mode with cpupower, nothing has fixed it.

[fossil frost]

I don't know where gOverlay writes to, but generally everything should be in the game folder (where the game .exe is).
Configuration file is OptiScaler.ini, under [Spoofing] StreamlineSpoofing & Dxgi should be set to false.

If you're using DLSS inputs, then leave these enabled, but I recommend XeSS inputs and no spoofing.
Just in case, to not trigger anti-cheat or something by accident.

[quasi lily]

Thanks, follow the config and it showed not spoof. Last question: did u use dx12 or vulkan? When using vulkan it show dxvk so I just pick dx12 for vkd3d

[final dew]

Hi. Has anyone found a good replacement for ahk on Linux? Can you share some scripts I could use to dive into it?

[strong kraken]

Are you on wayland or x11? Iirc there exists something for the latter, but idk of anything for the former.

Idk how good it is, but there is https://github.com/autokey/autokey for x11.

[fossil frost]

DX12

1. No XeSS on Vulkan to hook into
2. No OptiFG on Vulkan

The only other thing worth mentioning is adjusting Mipmap bias will help a lot with temporal instability (shimmering, flickering,..).
I've been using these values, image will be a touch softer, but much more stable.

[final dew]

I keep having crashes related to encoding/fonts not sure. Basically certain accented characters cause the game to crash.
turning on /dnd for example fixes everything.
I installed allfonts and also manually installed fontin but no luck so far. Any other hints?

[brazen fractal]

is PoB2 available on Linux? or will I have to run it with Wine/Proton?

[shell elm]

I run it under wine fine

sometimes copy paste doesn't work in some versions of kde

[thin goblet]

Does anyone know how to run Awakened PoE Trade on a Steam Deck and change the keys for the price check?

[strong kraken]

use https://github.com/meehl/rusty-path-of-building

easiest way to install it is probably with flatpak

[brazen fractal]

oh cool, i saw this in the AUR when i was looking around, but thought it was for only path of exile 1. thanks.

[autumn turret]

I simply installed the windows pob via lutris on my machine, didn't know this existed

[strong kraken]

It's pretty recent, so it might not have existed back then

[dark wigeon]

Hello guys I've posted this in the tool-dev general but I am reposting here as I think this channel may have many devs in it,

I am looking for beta testers for my POE2 tool that automatically gives you the best way to craft an item.
Here is the github repo https://github.com/Dboire9/POE2_HTC, and here you can download the latest release for windows https://github.com/Dboire9/POE2_HTC/releases/latest, if you want linux just git clone the repo
If you want to join the discord it's in the repo description, I recommend doing so if you are interested in testing or contributing (I won't put an invite link here in case of ban)
The project is open source and completely free, and I plan to update it for each leagues.

You can also DM me if you have questions, thanks for reading and see you soon !

[shell elm]

that sounds neat

darn, nodejs version is too old, I guess running a much newer distro

[dark wigeon]

Hasn't worked for you ? I have tested it on a Vm with a fresh Windows iso and had no problem 🤔

[shell elm]

[0] You are using Node.js 18.19.1. Vite requires Node.js version 20.19+ or 22.12+. Please upgrade your Node.js version.

which of course I could do, but it was trivial until then

[proven needle]

I would like to note that the flatpak version of path of building now also runs on rusty

[strong kraken]

yeah i said it in the subsequent message

well I guess i just insinuated it. there's also a link to the flathub listing on the page.

[cold cloak]

i doesn t want flatpat, how to instll ? is there a blog or more detail ? thanks

[strong kraken]

What distro are you on?

[proven needle]

Installing from Aur is fairly easy, especially with an aur helper like yay

[strong kraken]

iff you're on arch or a sufficiently vanilla arch-based distribution

[final dew]

bump

[lunar silo]

Hello :>
I am looking for information regarding a small issue I have with screenshots in poe1.
I am on mint (22.1) using GE-proton10-23.
When I hover an item and take a cropped screenshot the resulting screenshot doesn't capture the item tooltip unless I the ending position of my cursor is on top of the item.

I am usuing the default screenshot tool on cinnamon

[patent fern]

For many tooltips, you can pin them using the icon in the corner so they stay when you mouse off them.

(no idea about the cropping situation, sounds like the game might get the opportunity to process your input and dismiss the item popup before the screenshot is actually taken)

[lunar silo]

This was my thinking, somehow proton gets priority over the screenshot happens. Which is weird

[lunar silo]

this is a workaround I didn't consider, thanks 🙂

I´d still like to find the root of the problem though

That workaround works only for poe2 though, right?

poe1 items cannot be pinned, can they?

[patent fern]

Ah, no. PoE1 doesn't have those.

Might be something particular to your screenshotting tool, which I presume is GNOME's in Mint/Cinnamon. There might be an alternate one that behaves differently?

Or you could do it the cumbersome way of taking full screen/window shots and cropping them after the fact ^_^

I've got the opposite problem on Windows when taking shots - I need the delay before the snipping tool engages to hit the correct hotkey to highlight or not highlight things 😄

[fierce bone]

try maim+xclip combo

https://github.com/naelstrof/maim

[lunar silo]

I found a way 🙂
I dug through flameshot docs and it somehow works

I had to go through three different screenshot tools

Thanks!

[fierce bone]

reading documentation 🤝 thankful it fixed

maim+xclip works fine 4 me at least 🫡

[lunar silo]

We are linux users, I read documentation before bed 🥲

I assumed it was me and not the tool, this time it was the tool.

[odd sleet]

meaning to install poe1 on arch ... can anybody help with that a bit?

i am not your typical arch user, recently switched to linux, chose vanilla arch .. now looking for a way to install poe

[fierce bone]

enable multilib repo in pacman & install steam -> in steam settings change to use https://github.com/GloriousEggroll/proton-ge-custom instead of normal proton -> download and play poe1

dont need testing branch, just normal is fine

[odd sleet]

i see i will get back home and try it thanks tho

[strong kraken]

did you ssh into your computer from termux?

[fierce bone]

my server ye

[strong kraken]

lol based

[fierce bone]

dunno what consensus on using arch for a server is nowadays, but its easy to use, fast to install & decently slim, so i just stick to it

[patent fern]

Easy to krangle, whenever I update my boxes something new breaks 😄

[fierce bone]

unluigi ig, in 10~ years or so of using arch, only thing I've had break/act up after an update is python

altho for the server its kinda hard to break anything relevant anyway i guess since it's just a minimal headless install, Linux on desktop pc is something i gave up long ago 🫡

[patent fern]

Look away for five minutes and they break ZFS and brick your postgres 😉

Bonus points for keyring deadlocks when you don't keep up with whatever rotations upstream does, as key sets don't necessarily install first.

But yeah, servers are easier in that they've got less of a surface, but you also tend to set them up and fully forget about them.

[fierce bone]

no zfs for me ❌

no btrfs for me ❌

no voodoo desired

[shell elm]

ext4 ty

[patent fern]

If I have to use a pre-ZFS filesystem, I'm partial to XFS.

No real reason not to default to ZFS these days tho, unless the distro makes it harder than it should to use it.

[grizzled roost]

Hello!

Quite recently I installed linux (Bazzite) on my pc's second ssd to dual boot it alongside with windows 11. The idea is to eventually completely move over to Bazzite and get rid of windows all together.

The only thing that really keeps me from fully using Bazzite yet is the fact that I can't seem to get a path of exile price checker(overlay) application running on it.

The closest I got was Exile Exchange 2 running, on the background but the hotkeys are not doing anything.

Does anyone have any experience with using any price checker for Path of Exile 1 & 2 on Bazzite that is willing to give me some help?

Feel free to reach out in a DM if thats easier 🙂

[fading topaz]

You mean awakened poe trade?

[grizzled roost]

That is what its called for Poe1 yes

for poe2 its called Exile Exchange 2

if I am not mistaking

[twin bloom]

Sidekick has a linux release

[grizzled roost]

So does Exile Exchange, but I cant seem to get it to work. I might try out sidekick instead, see if that works.

it installs, it runs. it shows in my taskbar. It just doesnt respond at all to my hotkeys

[strong kraken]

global hotkeys won't work well on modern linux environments due to how wayland works. there are protocols for it, but i don't know of any price checkers that have implemented them. there are ways to get it working with some tinkering, varying per environment.

you can try forcing it to use the xwayland backend rather than native wayland. then, if you're focused on another xwayland window (like poe, by default), then global shortcuts should work

[grizzled roost]

And how would I do this?

[grizzled roost]

I tried downloading the appimage of sidekick and it wont do much.

[strong kraken]

I think it works if you remove the WAYLAND_DISPLAY envvar, but I think there's also some ozone platform cli flag you can use or something like that. Try looking through the issues on the github repo for EE2/APT.

[grizzled roost]

I think ive managed to fix it but I am not fully sure what I did differently this time. However I can only use ctrl + alt + e, just alt + e wont work.

[strong kraken]

¯_(ツ)_/¯
