Nothing to do with Steam. Try the discussion hub of the game you're talking about.

Irrelevant. This is not the discussion hub for Elder Scrolls Oblivion.

And worst part he is not even welcome as linux user, game was not made for that system backthen, and i dont think thats has change just because he has windows emulations.

He need to take hes idea to own linux group and get confirm from other linux users does it work.

Each game has it's own discussion area, go to the games page in your Steam library and you'll find the link there. It's one of the links in the section immediately below the play button.

I've had this issue before on Windows and it was related to the documents folder, I think wiping my settings via the file fixed it.

Beyond that, you could try the Steam Linux forum, the chances of someone on the Oblivion forum playing it on Linux is somewhat unlikely, and so many things work the same between Bethesda games, someone may have had the issue in Skyrim or Fallout or something, so it may not be strictly an Oblivion only issue.

that game worked in the past and still do on a true MS system, rest is your problem and lack of detail in what OS you are. ( linux mistake is not Bethesda problem , if you dont graps what it was build for or not, that actual your problem ) you think it us here, no its not, its your lack of skill and education and rest of the world will give a darn if its even a linux mistake , game is still not build for that OS. therefor you dont have game support and i doubt Behesda will go back and make it so. ( they are known for left the support and walk away and let modders fix rest.

you have no support. it ends there, take your crap to own linux group, maybe they can tell you how things is and repeat what i said in a nice way, so you graps what none support you have,
and thats why i said actual you are not welcome as linux user in a microsoft made title.

you lack skill in wrong system and when you actual have support to a game, Emulation has been seen before cause issue, even i see them in amiga emulators and c64. and if you read steam rules emulators are not welcom in any form.

so every linux user actual brake steam own rules, but that the problem here you have not been learned that such can happend.

Content Rules
Do not post any content on Steam containing the following:

Porn, inappropriate or offensive content, warez or leaked content or anything else not safe for work
Discussion of piracy including, but not limited to:
Console emulators

take your Proton issue to own linux group, you are actual not welcome anywhere. sense it fall under other things run through it.

and lets say steam change this, that dont mean game devs will support it.

Thank you all for your kind contributions to my dilemma I am very much aware of most things you shared ... I simply ask for a little help not all the sarcasm but if it makes you feel somehow superior more power to you.

And a sincere thank you to those of you who actually tried to help you know who you are.
