linuxgaming #podcast #radeon Our first live episode in a little while, we're going to talk about Josh's retro gaming setup and how Bo plans to max out his credit card on Black Friday. In this episode of Crowbar Kernel Panic, we're talking about retro gaming and the current state of GPUs and black Friday. Does it make sense to buy a new GPU? What is the best Retro gaming emulator? And is it time to reinstate the CRT monitor? As always, if you have a question or comment, let us know! We love hearing from you!

This week we're talking the latest Nvidia news / progress on my game idea and how learning Unity is going / drawing inspiration from 90s Konami and Capcom

We've been away for a little while to move and catch up on other life projects but we found the time to get together and record this discussion. Life has been busy but not so busy that we haven't played some recent releases and picked up some new hobbies.

NEWS Gnome new governance and other updates - https://thisweek.gnome.org/posts/2022/05/twig-43/ Nvidia moved many features behind firmware before opensourcing it’s kernel - https://www.pcgamer.com/nvidias-moved-most-of-the-code-to-firmware-before-releasing-open-source-linux-drivers/ Budgie submitted for inclusion in Fedora 37 - https://www.reddit.com/r/Fedora/comments/uq3gah/budgiedesktophasnowbeensubmittedfor/ Fedora 36 * I finally ditched Windows and only have Fedora installed on my laptop * I have Fedora installed to my 500gb ssd and I created a raid 0 between my 2 nvme drives to put all my games on. * I had to fix a permission issue before I could install any games to the mount point. I set the permission on the btrfs subvolume to 770 so that my user and group have full access to the mount. I made sure to give no permissions to everyone so that it's a little more secure. * After setting those permissions I could install all my games and play them. * Jedi Fallen order works fine now I can pause the game and resume and it plays normally. * Horizon zero dawn can now use dlss. * One issue I am still having is very strange. I could open the steam flatpak via the app icon totally normally until I set my nvidia gpu as the primary active gpu. After that I now have to use the flatpak run com.valvesoftware.Steam command to start steam. When switching back to intel/nvidia or just intel gpu the app icon can start steam again. * Wayland was a no go for any of my games so I am back on Xorg. Other than games though, wayland has come a long way and works with all my other applications. Nobara Project 36 My attempt at upgrading failed. NP documented a fix to allow for a successful process but after completion there were too many issues with the nvidia kernel to make it worth sticking with the installation. I opted for reinstalling.

Games I tested * Horizon Zero Dawn - There was a fix for the messed up grass and sound crackling during my testing so I went back and tested this one again and is now actually mostly playable on every distro except Garuda and ZorinOS. * Witcher 3 - This game had a lot of stuttering under anything but Linux Mint. * Metro Exodus (Linux Native and Proton) - Linux Native was not playable on any Distro I tried due to being half cut off of my screen or severe stuttering. Proton on the other hand was not too bad for the most part but Linux Mint still was the smoothest. * Halo CE Anniversary - Played mostly smoothly with some stuttering on the arch distros but was totally playable on all the Ubuntu distros. * Splitgate - Has some general Linux issues when comparing it to Windows but is playable on Linux with over 200 FPS on my system just some stuttering issues. * Valhimne - Playable on all distros except Garuda. * Project Zomboid (This game ran fine everywhere I tested probably due to low system requirements) Arch Distros I tried * Manjaro - Was mostly fine but had some glaring issues such as multi monitor issues and gaming performance issues. * Endeavor - had some fairly deal breaking bugs like OBS and Screenshots not working with Plasma and generally more stuttering than on most other distros. * Garuda - Just plain didn’t work out of the box with its dragonized plasma desktop. Ubuntu Distros I tried * Ubuntu Gnome 21.10 - This statement goes for all but Mint but basically stuttering was very prevalent on all distros except Mint. Other issues I had were getting optimus to work properly. * Kubuntu 21.10 - Other issues I had were, games not popping up on the right screens I wanted and super + shift + arrow keys did not help. * FerenOS - Same kinda issue as Kubuntu with games not working on the right screen * Zorin OS 16 - Extreme stuttering in most games even with graphics set to low * Linux Mint 20.3 - Once vulkan shaders were compiled ( which I allowed every distro to compile that I tried) The games ran smoothly with little to no stutters or slowdowns. Even my laptop fans are controlled correctly on mint out of the box. Caveat to that is I do have to set the speed profiles under windows but once thats set mint uses the correct settings.

Downgrade Horizon Zero Dawn Github Script * Ubuntu 21.10 performance * FPS between 40 and 65 roughly * Frametimes highest about 25ms * Gameplay seems smooth * Windows 10 21H2 * FPS between 75 and 115 with DLSS enabled * FPS between 60 and 85 without DLSS * Frametimes no more than 15ms * Gameplay extremely smooth * Conclusion * Valve and Ubuntu have a long way to go to catch up with Windows performance from what I have seen. I have tested over 20 games both Windows and Linux native games and almost always Windows pulls out ahead. This is not an issue with games that run at a high FPS (60 FPS or higher) but becomes much more noticeable when getting below 60 FPS. Heaven Dust and Heaven Dust 2 * Dev - One Gruel Studio * Two person team from China * Publisher - Indienova * ProtonDB - Has no reviews yet (I’ll be writing one) * I had 0 issues or modifications to get the games to run. * “A love letter to Resident Evil.” * A cutsie, anime, chibi style survival horror. Our character wakes up locked in a maintenance closet. We don’t don’t know immediately who he is or why he’s trapped in this zombie infested mansion but we learn about that as we solve puzzles and make our way out of the mansion/laboratory. * Journals * The story is told through journals in true 90s survival horror fashion. * The localization is relatively bad. Better in Heaven Dust 2 but still not perfect. * Combat * Controller - auto aim system * Mouse/keyboard - MG:S style HD1 has an animation issue, when bitten by zombies the animation takes longer than the zombies next bit. Often leading to one bit means death. * HD2 map is a little tighter than HD1 and zombies are often hidden behind the isometric wall and bit you without any clue they are there. The rooms in HD2 are blacked out before entering. * Puzzles * The puzzles in HD1 are fantastic and sprawling. Leading the player to run back and forth across the already explored map to find keys and items needed to inch further. The items are callbacks to the RE franchise without being spoilers to the puzzles.** Vending machines * HD1 has a vending machine system. Each section of the game has 1 vending machine that can sell the player a map, gun powder, and various magazines. * The currency is coins gained from killing zombies. * The magazines are buffs to PC.
