>died like 50 replies short of bump limit
Sad!

Sorry for my negligence contributing to the previous thread's untimely death, but posting on 4chan from devices without cookies has become hell, and I'd rather take the punishment for deleting my cookies than change the browser settings on the phone from which I would have been posting this morning.
Anyway, has anyone ever shared a Steam library between multiple accounts? I think I've got it working on my new PC, but I haven't tested it much, so I don't know what it might fuck up. Basically I've got multiple user accounts on my PC (for me and my family), and each of them uses Steam with a different account (which is already tons of bloat because Steam unpacks all of its runtime shit to ~/.steam/ but whatever). So I created a directory that belongs to a group shared by all the system's user accounts, and I think I've managed to set the permission bits and ACL on that directory so that anything created in it will belong to that same group and will have group read/write permissions. Then I logged into each Steam account and added that shared directory as a library. As a test, I installed Proton 10.0 to the shared library. All the users' Steam accounts can see that Proton 10.0, and I've verified that I can run a game installed to my personal library using the shared library's Proton. But I haven't tried running a game from the shared library as a user who didn't install it.
I'd take a screenshot of what I did but I'm on the old PC now because it's still got more of the kids' games on it.

>because it's still got more of the kids' games on it.
I suppose that last part was lacking some context. It's not that I want to play Paw Patrol: On A Roll myself, but the two PCs currently share a desk (and its monitor/keyboard/mouse), and I set up the old PC again before I went to bed last night so the kids wouldn't mess with the new one. Now I'm too lazy to switch all the cables to the new one again until I'm actually going to play a game that needs the better hardware.
It'll be nice when I get another desk (etc.) and can have both PCs set up at the same time.

Nope, and most users here are probably lone incels like me

Stupid fucking shit
Well, it was just before bump limit so it's not a big deal

The lack of custom maps in Brigador's official community mod compilation (unless I've simply overlooked them) is a bit disappointing. I'd like to see ammo depots for the flamethrower weapons. If I remember correctly, the flame ammo depot asset exists but didn't make the cut for the game's official release, and thus doesn't appear in any of the official maps. At least the flame-type weapons added by mods can be filled with generic ammo drops from enemies.
And the lack of mods on the popular mod sites (namely ModDB and Nexus) really blows, especially for a game designed to be moddable (though maybe not very successfully because it seems that combining mods outside of pre-compiled mod packs like the official community compilation isn't exactly trivial). I had seen a list of mods once, but if I remember correctly, a lot of its links were dead. Now I see there's another here (probably not the same list):
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2963636132
But the mods themselves, linked from there, are all hosted on... Google Drive? What the fuck? I don't know how people manage to fuck up mod distribution when we have entire web sites dedicated to hosting mods.

>>559008643
>designed to be moddable
Well, more like made to be officially moddable after the fact. It's really not that easily moddable (especially when it comes to the native Linux port for which use of the modkit requires some extra steps (documented already on the GOG forum)). But yes, the game officially supports modding (hence the official modkit) even if it wasn't designed that way from the ground up.

How's Fedora Workstation vs regular Ubuntu for Linux Gaming?
Is there a difference in performance or stability?
I've heard of the KDE "krashes" meme from /g/ a lot.

>>559018089
The only fedora spin I've used was the KDE one, which I used from like 41 to 48. Never had any major issues with it.

>>559018089
>KDE "krashes" meme
As you said, it's just a meme. It probably used to happen years ago, but nowadays it doesn't happen anymore.

I would play tbc, but I will never give a single cent to blizzard and there are no tbc private servers worth playing

Based and same. I'm not even a classic andy, but Twow is so refreshing, I don't know much about the private server scene, but sucks, that you can't enjoy tbc.

>Switch emulators like Yuzu has hardware acceleration just fine on Nvidia
>Waydroid can't have hardware acceleration on Nvidia for some reason
Why

>>559037678
>waydroid
Because it requires good wayland support?

>>559037678
Good question. I searched and apparently it's because Waydroid relies on Mesa. And Nvidia uses their own proprietary driver, instead of Mesa. Thats why it works on Intel and AMD and even some ARM chips. Man Waydroid is so cool it will only get better, especially with valve being involved now.

>>559000382
BWEEEEEEEEEEEEH

>>559037678
I'm not surprised. NVIDIA proprietary drivers are same across platform and all their user space drivers do is talking to their kernel blobs using proprietary APIs (for comparison, mesa drivers are using DRM API to talk to their kernel counterparts), so it's no wonder when something requires close Linux integration shit is falling apart.
Same thing happened with Wayland: NVIDIA didn't have proper KMS DRM driver that why everting Wayland related was completely broken until recently. I dare to say NVIDIA didn't support Linux: NVIDIA supported Xorg and just made binary compatible shims for wide variety of *nix systems.

>>559055386
Never would've imagined I would want to go back to AMD again after switching to Nvidia a few years back for the sake of stability

Dead Island 2. Got the Ultimate Edition on sale for $13 USD and I'd say it's well worth the money so far. Runs without a single issue.

Has anyone tried getting games using EAC to launch with Proton? I've tried Halo MCC and Totally Accurate Battlegrounds but both crash on launch, Halo has 'unexpected error [#1]' (launching the game without anti cheat runs fine) and TABG nothing opens but steam says it's not running anymore. I've tried Proton 10, experimental and cachyos but all have the same problems.

>>559067983
EAC games just work for me, chief. Try using Proton Hotfix? What's your distro and setup?

>>559067983
Do you have EAC installed?

its over goyim

>>559040360
It does technically work with nvidia as well, the waydroid devs just dont care about nvidia. Its the same for why it doesn't work on x11. There is no technical reason why it cant work with both.

Holy crap. I think that's the biggest single drop Linux has ever had. I don't really look forward to a whole month of Windows shills gloating about this while pretending nothing is happening with the Chinese language stats.
At least the GamingOnLinux plots are crystal clear about what's happening.
>https://www.gamingonlinux.com/steam-tracker/
Simplified Chinese had what looks like its biggest-ever boost in user share, hitting an all-time high and taking the actual fucking majority of Steam users, and the drop in Linux user share mirroring that insane surge in Chinese users looks just like all the other times that Chinese fucked up the stats for only a month, so anyone with a capacity for pattern recognition can see that Linux is going to shoot back up as soon as the Chinese bot accounts fuck off. I just wish they hadn't put that distro breakdown plot between the OS and language plots. It was easier to see how China fucks with the OS stats when those two plots were right next to each other.
The "Linux, English only" plot actually went up, by the way. But I don't know how they get that statistic, because it doesn't seem to be shown on the official hardware survey page.

>>559065220
I used to post here from my second phone at work, but now that this phone is dead I can't do it anymore.

>>559079637
I really wonder if they're verifying these stats before posting. Like, it would be in Valve's best interests
