Cheers btw, if you put your card into performance/high mode: some firmwares don't spin up the fans aggressive enough. If you see sudden every-odd-second stutter, set your own, more aggressive fan profile and run that.Thanks for the heads up, I tried adjusting the fan curves and I noticed the gameplay smoother indeed. I guess I will log temperatures and compare the default mode with what I have made to get hints at what temp. I am likely to get stutters to optimize my curve. if all goes well, I will learn how to write a simple script that activates the cpu line, launch radeon-profile, then launch gw2. not sure if that is possible, but will google my way through it and keep you posted as it may help others save time :+1: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello again @ArmoredVehicle.2849 hope you had a good holiday season! I was wondering if now you might have the time to look into TaCo? I have tried stuff myself, but I honestly can't get it to show up over the game and I'm very much out of my depth with it.

Berobad.4536 Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 I've been probing around with the available cpu schedulers a bit and the difference of running around in Amnoon is quite big(12 Core Ryzen 3900X with Navi on 4K) on both FSync and ESync:Default CFS:35-55 FPSZen Patched CFS:40-65 FPSPDS:30-55 FPS~~ ~~MuQSS and BMQ don't seem to like FSyncMuQSS ESync:30-45 FPSMuQSS FSync:15-35 FPSBMQ Esync:35-55 FPSBMQ Fsync:30-45 FPS~~ ~~But for BMQ limiting GW2 to 6 cores with taskset -c 0-5 does bring it to 40-60 FPS.GPU was forced to high for this test (2GHz shader clock), but a short test againt auto (1.3 to 1.8 GHz shader clock) showed no difference in fps.cpufreq set to performance ~~ ~~So at least for an high core Ryzen with AMD GPU the -zen kernels with patched CFS scheduler seem to be the best choice for Guild Wars 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmoredVehicle.2849 Posted January 6, 2020 Author Share Posted January 6, 2020 I've updated the packages to v1.9.2.

Ceit.1869 Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 You might want to try the cpupower command for tinkering with frequency scaling instead of mucking around in /sys, it's a bit more straightforward to run under sudo and gives more info.

Will play more tonight and keep you posted if there is anything of interest.

jinxlaw.9467 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 Is anyone having an issue where the client gets stuck while downloading at "Files Remaining: 49,100"? I tried Armored's 1.9.2, and two different lutris versions of gw2, but it does the same thing.I'm running on Manjaro kde.https://imgur.com/a/ISIkMOjUpdate: I moved the incomplete .dat file that I downloaded on linux to windows and test it on the native windows client. The .dat file was corrupted. I will either fully download gw2 then move it to linux or redownload gw2 on linux until it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the download issue I really can't tell, the forum lately had it's fair share of launcher issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoktorBaum.3017 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Since this appears to be a tech support thread, I'm just going to test my luck here. I tried about 4 different ways to run GW2 on Ubuntu 18.04, 3 of them pretty much worked (Armored Vehicle Scripts / manually get all the Wine things / Lutris) up to the moment of downloading all the files for gw2.dat in the installation process through the launcher. There is always about 10% missing and then it gives up and there is no way to get it to finish. It doesn't freeze, the megabytes shown are constantly rising, but 1: up to a point of being way too big, 2: the gw2.dat doesn't grow anymore, 3: It never gets more of the files mentioned on the launcher, 4: it never gets away from 90% or 91%.Running the game anyways (since it is ready to play at like 30% already) is, as far as I know, known to have unplayable performance and does so in my case too.Right now, I want to see if I can get 100% on windows first, and if so, just copy the files to my Ubuntu system (the wiki tells me they are not machine dependant). I've seen kind of similar launcher issues reported in here and maybe someone has an idea of where it might come from, since not everyone can use windows.@jinxlaw.9467 did that work for you?Update: another thread mentions something that could be relatedSome servers currently have corrupted files, causing the launcher to get stuck downloading the same file endlessly. To fix this, use the following option:-assetsrv 54.84.216.160 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoktorBaum.3017 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 okay, at this point I am 90% sure this problem has nothing to do with the linux launching methods. Sorry for bothering this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoktorBaum.3017 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 update 3: in case anyone tries - like me - looking for a solution here in this thread, i might have it now.100% not a linux issue, it appears the european servers are giving out corrupted files, switching the servers to download from to US seems to solve the problem for most people (by using arguments -assetsrv [current IP] [or] origincdn.101.arenanetworks.com , possibly -patchconnections 1). in some cases apparently people had to be connected to their router via cable as oppose to wireless.again, doesn't really belong here I think but maybe it helps a few people coming across.
