@codebam:matrix.orgSean * how do I get vkbasalt to work in steam games? I put it in hardware.graphics.extraPackages but when I launch with ENABLE_VKBASALT=1 the game won't start 19:36:04
@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemuI've never used it but VK layers need to go in the global env19:40:24
@codebam:matrix.orgSeanso... I need to relogin?19:42:38
@codebam:matrix.orgSeanthat didn't help if that's what you meant19:44:34
@codebam:matrix.orgSean I tried VK_ADD_LAYER_PATH=/run/opengl-driver/share/vulkan/explicit_layer.d ENABLE_VKBASALT=1 %command% and it didn't work 19:47:44
@k900:0upti.meK900Check the logs19:48:03
@k900:0upti.meK900And crash dumps if any19:48:06
@codebam:matrix.orgSeanhttps://p.seanbehan.ca/6c67819:49:18
@codebam:matrix.orgSeanthose are the logs when it fails to start19:50:44
@k900:0upti.meK900Yeah that's just crashing the game19:56:46
@k900:0upti.meK900I would definitely not recommend loading this kind of stuff into games with anticheat19:56:59
@codebam:matrix.orgSeanoh okay19:57:28
@srestegosaurio:tchncs.desrestegosaurio (on tchncs.de)We're kinda one of the final bosses on "is your stuff truly distro agnostic?" tho.20:01:14
@codebam:matrix.orgSeandoes AMD_USERQ work?20:01:57
@k900:0upti.meK900Don't touch that20:07:26
@k900:0upti.meK900That is how you get random firmware crashes and no actual fast20:07:34
@codebam:matrix.orgSeanoh okay20:14:24
@codebam:matrix.orgSeanyeah you're right I think I get better performance without it20:18:27

@atemu12:matrix.orgAtemu global env is environment.systemPackages. 00:21:12
@codebam:matrix.orgSeanoh. I put it there and it didn't work. but anyways I'll take K900s advice and not use it in a game with anticheat11:42:03
@marie:marie.cologneMarie still can't get it to work, it just dies because of a SIGKILL.
3 other people got it to run on NixOS with the flatpak, but I don't understand why it crashes on my system
12:09:08
@k900:0upti.meK900 Hardened something something? 16:12:52

@marie:marie.cologneMarie No, I run vanilla linuxPackages_latest 11:45:45
@marie:marie.cologneMarieand also default memory allocator and a very normal plasma desktop11:46:53
@marie:marie.cologneMarieI also tried LTS kernel, but it also crashes there11:47:24
