does anyone here have experience with running HD2 on Linux mint? It has been running perfectly stable for a while last couple months) but now, when i play it through steam, or rather try to, it refuses to launch.

im only software literate to an extent and this is out of my understanding if its a Linux thing or steam thing or system thing.

We play on Linux. it stopped working a few months ago when they released a certain patch.

I'll check what I had to change, but it was pretty straight forward. I think I only changed the proton version to experimental, but not 100% sure if that was the only thing. Definitely change this and try.

We play on an intel/nvidia pc and an amd/amd pc, so it works on either.

If there's more, i'll add it to my post, I can't check right now but in a few hours.

    Just checked: nothing in the launch options, simply change Compatibility to "Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool" and choose "Proton Experimental".

    Works great:

    My performance settings (FPS capped at 125 because my monitor is only 60Hz anyway):

    Uncapped FPS ~200fps:
