1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

    I tried like 6 Proton versions when there was that F2P weekend and it was impossible even to get the anticheat installer to work on Ubuntu 22.04.

    IDK what I was doing wrong.

    Ubuntu, there is your answer.

    On a serious note, are you sure you had the anticheat runtimes installed?

    This right here. I've spent a few hours troubleshooting why I can't play Hell Let Loose, which also uses EAC, even though it should support Linux. Turned out, that you need to specifically search for (in your Library) and install "Proton EasyAntiCheat Runtime", which is a separate game that for some reason didn't get installed when you install the game.

    I suppose it's going to be the same with Battlebit, because I'm sure I played it on Linux and had 0 issues.

    Not even with the stupid runtime worked me back then...

    [–] XEAL@lemm.ee 1 points 10 months ago

    I remember trying that too. It was something you install via Steam, right?

    When you switch proton versions, it might be a good idea to delete the prefix directory. I find that helps.
