@quadradical:federated.nexusQuadRadical (Ping) joined the room.17:15:00
@olivia:computer.surgeryolivia that's quite impressive. I have trouble even imagining how that would work, do you have a reference? 18:34:26
@olivia:computer.surgeryolivia hmm, my understanding was that part of the motivation behind the software rasterizer was to reduce helper invocation overdraw with small triangles, and that it actually comes out faster. I guess doesn't mean that the end result is necessarily low overdraw though lol 18:39:09
@olivia:computer.surgeryoliviaanyway, this is getting increasingly offtopic for nix stuff18:39:38

@woobilicious:matrix.orgwoobiliciousI wish I remembered the name, it didn't get maintained for very long. You might be able to do the same thing with Nvidia's RTX Remix, that allows you to inject path tracing in to games lol.03:10:57

@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzIs anyone successfully using Heroic's "Add to Steam" functionality? The entry it adds to Steam crashes on start, but running the same command from a shell works just fine, even with steam-run (so I guess it's not related to the steam fhs)10:24:39
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorzIn the logs it keeps spamming "gameoverlayrenderer.so" having the wrong ELF class ELFCLASS3210:28:46
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorz hm https://github.com/Heroic-Games-Launcher/HeroicGamesLauncher/issues/3653 suggests disabling hidraw in regedit, let's see 10:31:14
@niklaskorz:matrix.orgniklaskorz(never mind, that's unrelated workaround for gamepads)10:32:30
@k900:0upti.meK900 That's fine 12:11:51
@k900:0upti.meK900That's just the Steam overlay being weird12:11:56
@k900:0upti.meK900Or rather, Steam trying to LD_PRELOAD both flavors of the overlay12:12:09

@witchlliee:matrix.orgEllie she/theyHello i'm using the chaotic nyx flake and installed proton-cachyos from there but heroic or lutris don't pick it up and i don't know where is the package, how can i use the package?15:39:22
@k900:0upti.meK900 I don't think they can 15:41:14
@k900:0upti.meK900It's supposed to be used with Steam's extraCompatibilityTools thing15:41:23
@k900:0upti.meK900Also please don't run questionably sourced riced proton15:41:34

I've been daily-driving CachyOS' Proton flavour for a year or so with no issues at all. Why are you against using it?
15:59:29
@k900:0upti.meK900 Mostly because I don't think the CachyOS people really know what they're doing 16:00:55
@k900:0upti.meK900Because just throwing patches on top of things to produce more fast rarely leads to things actually being more fast16:01:21

From my experience, daily-driving CachyOS's kernel on Arch and now on NixOS for about a year and using their Proton flavour in desktop environment, it had some performance boost and better scheduling. Be it, I would never use BORE scheduler in server environment
16:17:30
@rein:rein.icuRein To specify, on NixOS for about 2 weeks, because I was using Arch before. 16:24:03

Hello i'm using the chaotic nyx flake and installed proton-cachyos from there but heroic or lutris don't pick it up and i don't know where is the package, how can i use the package?
You need to specify the package in programs.lutris.protonPackages
16:31:52
@rein:rein.icuRein i.e. programs.lutris.protonPackages = [ pkgs.proton-cachyos ] 16:32:57
@rein:rein.icuReinAt least in Home Manager configuration. The NixOS package doesn't provide anything like that for Lutris16:33:47
@rein:rein.icuReinAs for Heroic, I can't find anything about it, so you're on your own. Same with Legendary, they both don't have a HM modules, so I have no idea how one would specify a compatibility tools for them16:36:35
@rein:rein.icuRein* As for Heroic, I can't find anything about it, so you're on your own. Same with Legendary, they both don't have a HM module, so I have no idea how one would specify a compatibility tools for them. You'd need to manually add it, but I can't help you with that, because I've never used neither of them16:40:12
