 K900 | The d3d9 side is a bit less mature so could actually just be a bug | 16:34:03 |
| Emma [it/its] ⚡️ | so d3d11 would work better? | 16:42:54 |
| K900 | Maybe? | 16:43:02 |
| K900 | But if the game doesn't do d3d11 | 16:43:15 |
| K900 | That's not really going to help you is it | 16:43:22 |

I just remembered dxvk-nvapi is a thing nvapi is for DLSS and stuff like that; things that need to talk to the Nvidia driver or a reimplementation thereof (i.e. latencyflex) | 18:53:50 |
 littlejohn (jcray) | hello everyone, is there a way to change the game install directory in steam on nixos? I'd like to install to a second disk but following the normal steam method yields an empty file picker. not sure if this is a file-picker issue or a steam environment one. | 19:05:54 |
| K900 | You might need an xdg-portal implementation | 19:06:28 |
| K900 | For the file picker | 19:06:32 |
| littlejohn (jcray) | thanks, that helps point me in the right direction! I should have a working xdg-portal implementation but I just migrated this setup from my laptop to my gaming pc so something may be wonky with the file picker | 19:09:24 |

You might need an xdg-portal implementation cheers, that was indeed the problem. I needed to enable the gtk xdg portal in addition to the exisiting hyprlang xdg portal on my system | 19:22:36 |
 Charles ⚡️ | i'd recommend using sway instead of hyprland because it's generally less janky | 20:24:03 |
| Charles ⚡️ | (among other reasons...) | 20:24:23 |
| Charles ⚡️ | like OBS breaks a lot on hyprland, it causes hyprland's portal to crash most of the time | 20:24:52 |
 @haysidney:matrix.org | Does sway have any global hotkeys yet? I only really use hyprland because I need push to talk and some hotkeys. | 20:26:05 |
| Charles ⚡️ | i think generally the way that's accomplished is by adding the keybinds to your sway config and then firing a command that tells the application what to do | 20:27:13 |
| Charles ⚡️ | i could be wrong though | 20:27:44 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | All my friends use Discord and I'm not sure that approach works for it. Discord is kinda trash on linux sadly. | 20:28:13 |

All my friends use Discord and I'm not sure that approach works for it. Discord is kinda trash on linux sadly. map your key to run mic mute/unmute instead on the compositor level instead of using discord's keybindings
I think wayland has global hotkey support now but you can count on discord getting it in 2038 at the earliest | 20:29:31 |
| Charles ⚡️ | https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/5564#issuecomment-779700966 this is actually brilliant, way more general | 20:29:45 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | Ooooo | 20:29:54 |
| @haysidney:matrix.org | That's so hacky but I like it. | 20:30:05 |

| @haysidney:matrix.org | I might do a key-down mic mute key-up mic unmute sort of thing. I like that. I wonder if there's an easy one-liner way of doing that and making a sound so I'm confident that it's actually doing something. lol | 20:38:52 |
