Hey everyone! I just set up Arch Linux for gaming, and almost all my titles run smoothly except for Red Dead Redemption 2. Whenever I hit the play button, it goes through this cycle of ‘Launching->Stop->Play’ without starting the game at all. I’ve tried using Proton GE 27 and even different versions like 9.0.4, as well as Lutris, but nothing seems to work. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to troubleshoot this issue?
1 Answer
I was able to run RDR2 without issues on Linux using the Bazzite driver and an NVIDIA 3090. I think I chose Proton Experimental for this. If you want, I can check what exactly I did. Also, make sure you have Vulkan set up correctly; it’s crucial for this game to launch properly.
