For me, it's Shared GPU memory.

Windows/Games working out of the box with zero tinkering.
No amoint of proton or other software works as well for me as it seemingly does for othersExcept for online games, pretty much all the other games work without any tinkering for me since at least a year
Glad it works for you, I have the exact opposite exepeirenxe with most games (I rarely play online).
To the point I sometimes feel like I'm taking crazypulls
I even wonder what games are u talking about ,wanna try to run on my machine
The one who probably provided me the most trouble and headache over the years is my favourite anno, 1404 history edition
I usually check the proton DB website, to read the comments and see what people do to fix games and software.
Just recently I used it to get old CAD software to run, had to lower the proton version to 6 or something and it worked.
from all the times i tried to use protondb for help, for me, i can count the times it actually did on one hand
I tried it running with portproton with pirated version works smooth no tinkering.Running on arch linux with hybrid graphics on nvidia mx940.
Wow,i even got downvoted.
Probably because you've said it's rated 3.14
Are you using Steam, or games from another service? I've only found 1 or 2 things that didn't work immediately on Steam, but I have an absolute hell of a time getting anything off Steam to run, it's like pulling teeth. Especially older Windows games; they're just a non-starter most of the time.
I just use a single Bottle's bottle to install a bunch of off-Steam games. Contains many older windows dependencies; you have to install them yourself but they are found within the bottle's settings.
I remember trying to get Sims 3 working for my partner, it had all sorts of missing textures, kept crashing and had poor performance. Turns out you need a 4gb patch?? made from the community? Decided to toss it in my bottle and it works flawlessly. Have not tried dos games but may be worth a shot.
From steam, to lutris to base wine to he to trying a couple back cause nothing else worked.
Saw it all, did it all and I hazard a guess I soon will see it all againIs it possibly your distro? Maybe share what you're using, and see if others are having different luck with it?
the distros never made a difference sadly, endevouros, mint, i could fire up any one of em and they would have the same problem.
some people theorized here it may be my ram (two different speeds) when i removed them it made games crash that didnt before
I agree with that
