Hi all, I bought and installed Half Life 2 and any version I start, it lags terribly (1 frame every 3/4 seconds).
The rest of the games for Windows start without any problem
It’s like it’s not using the video card… help!
Also if I’m not mistaken i think 2 has a native linux version might be best to set it to use proton. As native is often issue prone if its not maintained.
I know I can lunch the main half life 2 an have no issue but i set it to the proton one way back when.
yes I had already tried rebooting in x11 but unfortunately nothing changed
@elite even starting directly from Steam (which I don’t understand if using Runtime or Native) it doesn’t change.
I don’t know how it works with Proton…
R click on the game an go to properties - compatibility an set it to some proton version. It might be best to use protonup-qt an download the latest 9.20? proton and use that. unless protondb users say otherwise. “note if you do this you will have to fully close steam down an reopen it.”
The native/runtime steam hasn’t been useful since about 2016 at least in my case.
Normally you would set it in steam not protonup-qt. Your other option is to set it back to normal and start steam from terminal an see if is spits out anything useful when the game is running. It will say a lot of stuff so you kinda have to watch it.
So, i tried to put everything back to the way it was, nothing.
I tried “steam --reset” and started from terminal.

Looks like you might have a driver? issue but if other games work fine or it worked before that would be odd well. Apart from removing the pfix folder so it restarts. I cant really say.
Most likely you need to tell lutris to use the GPU, as you said in your post.
I have to do this with many titles.
from Lutris, Right click on the game and select configure, then choose top tab System Options and scroll down to the box Game Execution and in Environmental Variables add this key : DXVK_FILTER_DEVICE_NAME
With your Graphics card as the variable.
for example I use : NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Ti Laptop GPU
You can use
vulkaninfo --summary
to find your exact GPU details.
Edit: I just tried it Via Steam, and I had to change the runner to Experimental to get it smooth.
Again from lutris configure/Runner options/Wine Version change to Experimental
