Who got this to work on linux?

[Arugela]

Can anyone who got this to work on linux show how they got it to work and what you are running?

Same for people who didn't.

I'm using:
Fedora 40 Kernel Linux 6.12.6-100.fc40
Mate 1.28.2
AMD Phenom II x6 1100T
GTX 1060 3gb
SSD

I've tried regular startup and several of the top proton builds. Same result no matter what.

[...]

what result? i have 940mx with 2gb vram, 8gb ram. It's runs ok but crashes at same certain places with no crashlog

I haven't gotten into the game yet. I was wondering if anyone else had on linux and how.

With a CPU that far below minimum spec my first bet would be that the game requires some instruction it doesn't support. Are you even getting the launcher to open?

Which version of the Nvidia driver are you on?

It runs with zero effort on current hardware:

Marvel Rivals is only supported on Microsoft Windows 10 and 11.

Oh wow I didn't catch his specs. Yeah, sorry, you're going to need a better computer than that, regardless of operating system. Like, a lot better.

[Arugela]

the launcher opens, but if you start the game it doesn't start up.

It used to run, but not after the latest update. Sucks. Guess I can't play it anymore. On to the next game I guess.

How could you got it to run? I have the same card but i cant enter the game T_T

add "STEAMDECK=1 %command%" into launch options (without " sign).. also dont use nvidia reflex, no need for game specific proton needed. just have it on by default in the settings

Excuse me for my dumbness but how a command for steamdeck is going to help me when i dont have one (just wanna be sure srry)

It bypass the initial launcher. Also on certain linux builds the launcher throws a fit if I recall. So you remove it as a point of crashing.

That said I have been using proton 9-21 to play fine. Occasional lockup or crash though. That and performance issues but that seems to be all over the place regardless of OS. Will be upgrading my system this week and hopefully see improvements.

I had this problem with Death Stranding and Helldivers 2 on my i7 930 (released in early 2010). It's easy to suspect that all 64 bit CPUs can run all 64 bit programs (and 32 bit ones), but this is not true. There are extensions to the base instruction set that have been added over the years and not all processors have them all. You can read about it in the Wikipedia article below for a summary. The TLDR is that some programs may be using instructions that older processors cannot support.

All that to say, I don't actually know if Rivals is such a program. If you're still having trouble I can try booting it on my old computer (the one with the i7 930) to see if it gives me the same error Death Stranding and Helldivers 2 did.
