the problem is, sfall by default limits the available cores to 1, which makes sense on windows, but makes proton super slow. except sfall uses ddraw.dll as it's proxy loader, and wine doesn't allow any trickery with graphic libraries, so you have to manually tell wine to load ddraw.dll from the game directory by right-clicking fallout2 in steam -> properties -> set launch options, and set it to "WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw.dll=n" %command%" (without quotes).

Link to the post: steam version comes prepatched with resolution patch and sfall, the latter being a fix for many engine problems, including crazy fast world map speed. (Note: I didn't have to change ProcessorIdle to 1 as it was already set to that)Ī Steam usered named engiecat posted the following information regarding the ddraw.ini tweaks above explaining why these steps were performed, the post is from 2019 so maybe it's out-of-date / no longer needed but I used them and it seems to be working. Say "yes to all" when it asks you to overwrite the existing files.Ħ) Open up the ddraw.ini file in your Fallout 2 main directory and change the following items:

Download the latest version of sfall (As of this is 4.3.2) which is what this guide is using.ĥ) Open up the sfall archive file you downloaded and extract all the files to your Fallout 2 Steam Directory which will be something like /SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Fallout 2/.
Sfall is a user-created engine tweak/modification for Fallout 2 that adds a lot of nice quality of life improvements and fixes. I wanted to play Fallout 2 with an updated version of SFALL than the one Steam includes so I typed up a few instructions on how I got it all working in case someone else is running into problems:įallout 2 Linux Installation Instructions:Ģ) Set Steam Compatability To Proton 6.3-8ģ) Add "WINEDLLOVERRIDES="ddraw.dll=n" %command%" (Without the quotes) to Steam Launch Options (Right-Click on Fallout 2 in Steam and Select Properties, Launch options are under the First Tab (General)Ĥ) As of, The Steam Version of Fallout 2 comes with a very old version of Sfall (3.2 or so). Maybe Linus and Luke should check them out as well. Also, check out the Getting Started with Linux Guide at the top of the r/linux_gaming page. I'm a Linux user who found the above videos helpful. I am not affiliated in any way with Tyler's Tech, DistroTube, Manjaro, or any other entity. You can also find the latest review video for the latest Manjaro KDE on the Manjaro KDE download page: and the Tyler's Tech video that reviews Manjaro KDE: In fact he has already done it twice.įor new and curious users, I recommend looking the following video by DistroTube: A better and less circus stun type of way of introducing Linux would be to just let Anthony (who works for Linus) do it. However, some would be new user will watch the video series, believe everything in the videos, and forever be tainted with bad and biased information. It is fine if you are just looking for a few laughs.
It is a harmful way to introduce Linux to potential new and curious users. I really wish Linus didn't make this circus stunt video series. Everything serious works under linux great anyway, but the gaming situation is almost perfect now, too, at least for the stuff I like to play :) That was one of the last few multiplayers I was really missing under Linux and the other one has EAC and might be there soon aswell.

well, "quality" as the windows Bohemia experience (anyway, I love it )). The game itself was already running perfectly under Proton for a while, but for the last few hours I was also finally able to confirm myself during a nice little battleye-restricted koth session that multiplayer is now finally on the same level of.

You need to set Arma3 to Proton Experimental and have to install an additional steam tool "Proton BattleEye Runtime", but thats just one click and not tinkering arround with anything anymore (if you have mods you most likely still want the arma3-unix-launcher, tho). I bet there are threads out regarding this here somewhere as I am a few weeks late, but just wanna say for those who did not notice just like me it's not a maybe-maybe-not vague announcement or speculation anymore: It works and it works flawlessly!
