Like it's freezing up for a second every other second. Although it's better once I've let all the data download.

make sure you're not using the latest protons and dxvk, as they have regressions. the game is running stable for me on lutris with proton7-42 and dxvk 1.10.3. you also want to fully patch, enable the dxvk shader cache and let it compile the shaders when you first enter maps instead of running around.

Tried Lutris with lutris-GE-Proton7-42 and dxvk set to 1.10.3, that just makes a blank Wine desktop with no GW2 launcher.

this sounds more like you're missing a library or driver. click the link in my signature and make sure you have everything you need installed; under linux sometimes updates remove things that are "unused", and due to the nature of the game being installed in lutris, the system doesn't know what you need.

 

after finding what is missing, make sure you mark the software as "hold" or "don't remove." i'm not experienced with that distribution in general, but this tends to be universal.

It's an old GeForce GTX 780 that I got from a friend when my previous graphics card gave up the ghost. It was running GW2 just fine under Lutris, even in a bigger crowd.

I don't understand your second question, but my system information lists "The X.Org Foundation" under the Graphics tab, so I assume the answer might be X11.

Yes, that's X11, and since you're on Nvidia, you can't try wayland. I don't know about nvidia drivers, but i had a lot of skipped frames which looked quite similar to what you describe, but my solution was to switch to wayland... And you can't do that.

But for me, it was a vsync issue which - on KDE - was "fixed" by disabling desktop compositor. And i don't know if you can disable the compositor on PopOS...

and with SDDM it was always a gamble if it'll let me log in or not.

I'm experiencing this now. Like 1 out of 10 times I have to reboot to try again. Probably I'll do another full backup before switching to LightDM to see how that works with KDE in 2023.

Yeah, it was really bad for me too. Try another login manager, yeah. I hear SDDM will be part of KDE now, so if they're working on it, it might get better. But that won't happen soon i guess.

Idk, Gnome works for me really great, i have no further need to faff about with desktop environments. If KDE had worked, i'd stay there too but, it had too many issues for daily use.

SDDM is okay for me, I don't have these login problems, but during shutdown, in 7 of 10 cases, I have to wait 90 secs unti it timeouts.

That is something I managed to solve in the distant past with changing the wait time from 90 to 5 seconds, don't remember the exact process, but it's not very difficult.

I tried LightDM today. It completely broke everything. I'm thinking if I installed another distro, not KDE neon it might work though..

-Login box displaying on the wrong monitor

-Kde x11 session failed to start error message upon clicking login.

-Installed a bunch of auxiliary services in a similar fashion to what happens when you install KDE on a Gnome system & log into Gnome. So instead of trying to fix this slowly I just ended up restoring my backup to save time and effort.

I was too lazy to look it up, but did it now and replaced with sddm-git (as written here, using yay). Tonight we'll see how is it works... 🙂

kitten, i thought SDDM is a bit more removed from KDE than that... But it looks like they use it for a reason. 😞

Good you made backups! 🙂 Timeshift? 🙂

     Been lurking in this thread for a while; thought I'd toss in some info for fellow Linux Mint users. Perhaps some bit of it will help or at least provide some clues for other Linux gamers just as this thread has helped me.

     Most of the info below has come from a myriad of web pages, forums, other install setups on Lutris.net and trial-and-error over the years. As always, be sure to make a backup of your important files before experimenting.

     The info presented below is with the assumption that your system is compatible. Again, be sure to make a backup of your important files before experimenting. (The golden rule of computing: Backup! Backup! Backup!... and then back it up again.)

 

 

OS:   Linux Mint 21.2 "Victoria" (based on: Ubuntu 22.04 "Jammy")

https://linuxmint.com/

 

Desktop:   Cinnamon

 

CPU:   13th Gen Intel i9-13900KF (32) @ 5.500GHz

Kernel:   6.6.9-x64v3-xanmod1

https://xanmod.org/

 

GPU:   NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070

RAM:   64g DDR3

SSD:   Western Digital NVMe 4g

 

 

Wine:   wine-9.0-rc3 (Staging)

https://www.winehq.org/

     Wine requires 64bit systems to be 32bit compatible, so open a terminal and enter this command:

Quote

sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386

 

 

Vulkan Drivers:

     Open a terminal and enter this command:

Quote

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install -y libvulkan1 libvulkan1:i386

 

 

nVidia Drivers:

     I use the proprietary driver that is in Linux Mint's repositories. I tried a PPA that was more up-to-date but it started to cause too many blank, black screens so I went back to the stock version.

     Currently the driver is:   nvidia-driver-535 (v.535.129.03-0ubuntu0.22.04.1)

 

 

Mesa Drivers:

Mesa support for 32-bit games:

     Open a terminal and enter this command:

Quote

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --install-recommends -f libgl1-mesa-dri:i386

 

Mesa support for Vulkan Drivers:

Quote

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install --install-recommends -f mesa-vulkan-drivers mesa-vulkan-drivers:i386

 

Move Mesa cache to RAM

 https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Guild_Wars_2_on_Wine

     "If the game keeps stuttering when turning the view. It is usually because of weak HDD/SSD performance and in addition because some mesa data is stored in your $HOME. First you can try to just use a faster SSD for installation. Second you can try to move your mesa cache to RAM. Most current Distros use /tmp as mounted in tmpfs (RAM) if that is the case just execute the following:"

     Open a terminal and enter this command:

Quote

cd ~/.cache/ && rm mesa && cd /tmp && ln -s ~/.cache/mesa_shader_cache mesa

 

 

Lutris:   v0.5.14

Homepage:  https://lutris.net/

GitHub:   https://github.com/lutris/lutris

 

Lutris Settings:

Runner Options -> Wine Version:   wine-ge-8-25-x86_64

 

General Settings:

     Lutris comes preset with settings that should work for most things. I took the time to look into each setting and disabled the ones that my system didn't have anything for (like game pads) or entered specific settings to cut down on the guess-work for Lutris (like specifying which monitor to put the game on).

 

Lutris -> System Options tab:

     Make sure "Enable Feral GamMode" is on.

     Make sure "gamemode" is installed:

     Open a terminal and enter this command:

Quote

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gamemode

     Bottom third of the System Options page -> "Command prefix" ->  type in:

Quote

gamemoderun

 

"Display" section:

  • Restore resolution on game exit     on
  • Restore gamma on game exit         on
  • Disable desktop effects                   on
  • Disable screen saver                      on

 

Environment Variables:

Key                                                              Value

DXVK_ASYNC                                               1
DXVK_STATE_CACHE_PATH                     ~/Games/..../<game.exe>
LC_ALL                                                           en_US.utf-8
STAGING_SHARED_MEMORY                    1
__GL_DXVK_OPTIMIZATIONS                     1
__GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE                     1
__GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_PATH        ~/Games/..../<game.exe>

__GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_SKIP_CLEANUP   1

__GL_SYNC_TO_VBLANK                            0

__GL_THREADED_OPTIMIZATIONS           1

__GL_YIELD                                                       NOTHING  <--- use this word

Note:  "DXVK_STATE_CACHE_PATH" and "__GL_SHADER_DISK_CACHE_PATH" you'll have to find for yourself on your system. I don't know how it is for other Linux distributions but for Linux Mint Lutris defaults to installing games in /home/<username>/Games/<name_of_the_game>/<file_path_to_game.exe>

i.e.:  ~/Games/guild-wars-2/drive_c/Program Files/Guild Wars 2

 

 

Lutris vs Lutris FSHack vs GE-Proton:

     As best as I can get a bead on it, "Lutris FSHack" runners seem to be for games from the Windows XP era and earlier, "Lutris" runners are for games that came after that era, and "GE-Proton" is the best option for contemporary, graphics-intense games like Guild Wars 2.

 

 

Fonts:

     I copied fonts from my Windows laptop into an archive folder on my Linux machine to copy into current and future Windows-based games running within their own Wine containers/instances/bottles.

     i.e.:   ~/Games/guild-wars-2/drive_c/windows/Fonts

     If you don't have a Windows computer to copy the fonts from, most can be installed through WineTricks.

 

 

Fix nVidia Settings Manger Unable to Save to xorg.conf:

     By default, the Nvidia Settings Manager won't save your changes to "/etc/X11/xorg.conf" which means you have to redo those settings after every reboot. The following command remedies that problem:

     Open a terminal and enter this command:

Quote

sudo chmod +x /usr/share/screen-resolution-extra/nvidia-polkit

 

 

Turn Off Your System's Desktop Compositor and All Other Fancy Visual Effects:

     It was hard to bite the bullet on this one but it came down to either having messed-up graphics during loading and unloading of games or have a stable display and playing games without graphics issues.

 

 

Special Thanks:

     Special thanks to @Noxin.9276 for the extra tips and info in their post:

Anyone have problem with audio recently?

I'm not sure if this is GW2 or wine or pipewire or CEF related, but the game unable to detect my USB DAC if I my browser playing audio.

it sounds like pulseaudio isn't working properly on your system and its falling back to alsa.

How can I fix it?  I forgot to mention that this only affect my USB DAC, no problem detecting my HDMI output. 
First i thought maybe it's related to Wine but other games work just fine.

Do you use pulseaudio or pipewire?

If you use pulseaudio, i bridge my pulseaudio output to jack, and have it output as a virtual device. That way, i can have low latency audio and have pulse playing at the same time with no latency.

If you have pipewire... Well, i went back to pulseaudio/jack combo so... Maybe someone else can help you.

I'm on Pipewire. After several testing, downgrading and upgrading packages I think my problem is related to Guild Wars 2 recent updates. My other games have zero problem with audio. (Smite, Dawn Of War 3, V-Rising, DOS2, Splitgate, Riftbreaker, Mafia : DE, Hades, Railgrade, New World, PES21, Vampire Survivors, etc)

So the actual problem is - GW2 audio doesn't work while playing browser audio?

Have you tried changing some pipewire settings, latency, available channels, etc.?

Also, if it's just GW2, maybe try a different proton?

Anyone have problem with audio recently?

I'm not sure if this is GW2 or wine or pipewire or CEF related, but the game unable to detect my USB DAC if I my browser playing audio.

I'm using pipewire, but not USB audio. No problems here. (I just tested playing a podcast via browser while playing GW2. Both had audio.) What version of pipewire?

Yeah, Nvidia is notorious for holding their drivers hostage and refusing to work on more modern imlementations...

Gnome does work with X11 as well though, and i find its compositor way less buggy than KDEs.

On KDE, i always had to turn kwin off when playing a game because gaming with it was just impossible. It would skip frames constantly, making every game unplayable. FPS counter showed 60FPS, but it looked like 15. So i tried KDE wayland but KDE's implementation of Wayland is horrible. Gaming on that was great, but the desktop showed all kinds of artefacts on screen, it was horrible.

Then SDDM crashed and i just about had enough of KDE and reinstalled everything with GNOME and i'm happy. Everything works great.

 

If this happens again - you can give Nobara a try. I hear they have an easy way to install Nvidia drivers and all, and it's supposed to work out of the box. They use gnome-shell for their desktop, but heavily modify it, so it kind of looks like KDE.

And it will have way newer packages than Ubuntu does.

 

gnome is also an even bigger ressource hog than KDE.

Gnome was supposed to be as windows-like as possible. And they started that project with wasting as much ressources as possible. This was true with gnome 1 - and has been true since.

 

About the crashing problem: I guess it is ntfs related. The game writes a lot of stuff - and ntfs drivers aren't exactly stable.

I have 32 GB RAM, it can hog all the resources it wants lol.
I'd take that over not being able to log in to my computer any day. 🙂

I was too lazy to look it up, but did it now and replaced with sddm-git (as written here, using yay). Tonight we'll see how is it works... 🙂

So I'm using the sddm-git for about 2 weeks now and it's working: no logout timeouts, no login problems, nothing.
