  • To eliminate this cheat vector, we have made the decision to prevent access to the game for Linux users.

Playing on handhelds, such as the Steam Deck, is still possible if the user opts to install Windows.

    translates to them cutting off linux support so people will be forced to use approved operating systems like Windows which will require more hardware which means more money for those companies and more intrusive anti cheat software that gives users data away

    way more than just about Windows and some games

    this is about locking users into approved environments with no wiggle room just like on Tron

It includes a set of scripts combined with wine-proton itself, a Steam Runtime Sniper container with the addition of ported versions of MANGOHUD (displaying useful information in the game window: FPS, FrameTime, CPU, GPU, etc.) and vkBasalt (improving graphics in games, very good in conjunction with FSR, DLSS) + many already configured optimizations for maximum performance.

    One-click automatic installation (on the AUTO-install tab) of popular launchers such as: WGC, Epic Games, BattleNET, Origin, EVE Online, RockStar, Ubisoft connect, League of Legends and many others has been implemented.

    For console game lovers, there are many console emulators available (under the EMULATORS tab): PPSSPP, Citra, Cemu, ePSXe, MAME and many more…
