Something is misconfigured
No it’s just Atlus being Atlus as it was SMT 3 Nocturne Remaster giving me shit and crashing my system. If I play the original version it’s fine or any other game for that matter
one thing i hate about running games with WINE is that sometimes i switch virtual desktop while playing then the game is unresponsive when i come back
I’ve had that on mint but when I switched to arch with Wayland kde it stopped happening. I also had issues where if my display goes to sleep game will freeze.
I’m using Mint and have no trouble. Switched desktops to play a movie, came back to the game later and it worked fine.
Interesting. It didn’t always do it with switching desktops. Only sometimes but it was guaranteed to happen if my monitor went to sleep
try running them in gamescope, eliminates a lot of that type of problem
This is kind of not really related, but last week, we’ve been onboarding two new devs into our programming project at work. Our team so far had exclusively used native Linux, while the two new folks were on Windows.
We recommended using a VM, because we had a recollection of how much pain programming on Windows was. Unfortunately, VirtualBox had performance problems on their machines and ordering a VMWare installation took a few days.
So, we spent those few days to see, if Windows was really still that much of a pain. They’d still need a VM for testing, but otherwise, our entire tooling should have been fine on Windows.
Fuck me, those days were wasted. One of our dependencies dynamically pulled in C code and compiled it, which you barely even noticed on Linux, but is apparently not a thing it can do on native Windows.
So, instead they were on WSL pretty early on, but that had all kinds of differences to a native Linux installation and they constantly had to fix the DNS config, because it kept being reset by Windows. In particular, while compiling Rust & C worked, it was extremely slow.Eventually, they got VMWare and we started setting up the OS. We literally completed installing Linux before a compilation run had finished. And what had cost us multiple days to try to get going under Windows, was just working within an hour on Linux. And for some reason, compilation within the VM was about 20 times faster than under WSL.
I still assume, these are generally solvable problems and if our team had worked under WSL from the start, we would have had some of those solved.
But even taking that into account, there were just so many nonsense problems, which we never had to fix on Linux, that I’m still left absolutely baffled that some people genuinely use WSL for development.I’m a C++ and Dart (yes I know unusual combo) dev on Windows
You feel my pain
My fucking god windows requires a whole month of just learning platform quirks and setting up a dev environment to START THE FUCKING WORK alone
Allegedly some new shite called dev drives and whatever are supposed to fix some of the disaster but I haven’t tested it yet
Also ABSOLUTELY FUCK the entire C compiler installation and setup in Windows. My fucking god Microsoft had had 40 years to fix their tooling for THE most used language and you still need a dark ritual to make everything work and install MSVC and msys and clang
WSL’s performance is drastically better when you don’t save your files on Windows’ filesystem.
If they want windows just though windows in a VM in Virtual manager.
how
Idk how it just crashed when I opened a Steam game and VSeeFace that runs perfectly with OpenSeeFace and Wine. I had over 10GB of RAM left btw
Do you have swap file?
Yes 2GB Swap in opensuse
I’d have a swap file that is 2x your memory.
So 32GB then? I have 16GB of RAM
If it is more than 4GB, have swap equal to the size of ram
But I can pretend I have 128Gb ram 🙃
You can never have too much RAM
If you have plenty of storage I would do it. Some wine applications love to stall my system and a large swap helps a bunch.
Or if you read another one of my comments I found out that this was isolated to SMT 3 Nocturne Remaster on Steam. For some reason if I try to boot that with VSeeFace my PC crashes but not with the original version or other games. It’s an Atlus being Atlus problem
Correct
Does your computer have a cartoonish mouse by any chance?
When I minimize a game or any program running with either proton or Wine, it crashes. Can someone help me with this?
I’m using Fedora 38, Wayland and Nvidia GPU.
May not be the same issue as you, but fullscreen apps have been the most finicky for me, when they lose focus they become stuck minimized. Borderless window usually fixes that issue for me.
