 K900 | I just remembered dxvk-nvapi is a thing | 16:26:02 |
| K900 | So maybe you need that? | 16:26:05 |
| K900 | Actually are you using dxvk at all? | 16:26:14 |
 Emma [it/its] ⚡️ | i uh, ran winetricks dxvk just now which got that error to go away | 16:26:30 |
| Emma [it/its] ⚡️ | but now im stuck with a black screen | 16:26:37 |
| Emma [it/its] ⚡️ | tl;dr it initialises but doesnt render anything | 16:26:49 |
| K900 | Then maybe check the dxvk bug tracker | 16:27:03 |
| K900 | Though games that don't render at all on it are really rare | 16:27:15 |
| Emma [it/its] ⚡️ | i mean.. its an old version of CS:GO so... | 16:28:54 |
| K900 | d3d9 old or d3d11 old? | 16:29:33 |
| Emma [it/its] ⚡️ | 2017 cs:go old | 16:30:59 |
| Emma [it/its] ⚡️ | aka, no clue | 16:31:24 |
| Emma [it/its] ⚡️ | d3d9 apparently | 16:31:35 |

| 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 | Does sway have any global hotkeys yet? I only really use hyprland because I need push to talk and some hotkeys. | 20:26:05 |
