cant figure out whats wrong with ACU

[void veldt]

i need help there are some glitches like this all around the game some areas/cut scenes have it worse

the little black line

Better example

these are my specs and im using proton GE 9-20

Lower your graphics settings

Maybe the GPU can't keep up

Or it's a Mesa bug

send output of inxi -Fmxxxz command

[uneven ingot]

What about vanilla Proton?

[void veldt]

Wellll long story short since intel is a bitch my components have zero fuckin driver support 🥲

So had to go back to windows until I get better parts

[void veldt]

The graphics were always as low as it gets
The igpu not keeping up that’s a maybe
Mesa is also a maybe but no really
And for proton already tried both GE and vanilla but from what I found GE works a lil better

So ye after all the experimenting it’s a driver issue (which I don’t have any good support at all)

[uneven ingot]

what are you talking about? Intel Raptor Lake has been out for quite a while, like 4 years. The architecture and driver support (i915/iris) is pretty mature at this point.

this may simply be a mesa3D bug if it's game graphics-related, RAM bandwidth being too small or saturated for the graphics setting, or hard power management rules

Also i missed the detail where you are using an external monitor. Did the game do the same on the built-in one?

[void veldt]

Every test me and my friend ran always led us back to the drivers which I didn’t have
Ye you’d think I’d have good support but apparently no
Or maybe just specific intel chip

[void veldt]

No only played the game on external

[uneven ingot]

Intel heavily contributes its drivers directly to the kernel. All intel hardware already has basic drivers baked into the kernel, only media/VPL/levelZero drivers must be packaged by the distro

what device didn't have a driver?

the GPU?

[void veldt]

Not entirely sure but I suppose highly likely since I’m getting issues like this
Even in white knuckle I been getting massive issues of it being sluggish even tho it’s rated platinum in protondb
So was nine sols as another example of it being sluggish
But I dead hear from another friend that ACU loves to do the graphical artifacts for whatever tf reason just doesn’t run well ig (for the record it’s rather gold so beats me)

[uneven ingot]

platinum/gold/broze don't rate performance at all on protondb

they really just answer the question "does this game run at all? and is it playable?"

and distros that test the games vary too

[void veldt]

rightt

well anyways idk what to really do

[uneven ingot]

you can try other distros if you like the linux vibe

[void veldt]

already tried bazzite cachy and nobara

connection issues

[uneven ingot]

same thing?

[void veldt]

been using linux for a long time now just never really daily drivern it on my main system

[void veldt]

no the game performance as fine just another issue thats being wifi issues cuz i been tryna use my cellular data/hotspot

my wifis too slow compared to my hotspot but more stable
hotspots faster but juts be forming network mountains on steam download window lmao (just going up and down constantly and sometimes even disconnecting) somehow apparently it was a fedora 43 issue since i experienced that on nobara and bazzite but then when i tried cachy same thing was happening then we came to the conclusion that it had something to do with KDE and how it handles networks

[uneven ingot]

well

perhaps you used the newer Proton runners ?

I think that explains the artifact fix
