Is there a way to switch Desktop Scaling from 'Apps Apply Scaling Themselves' for Game Mode to 'Scaled by the system' in Desktop mode automatically?

Kamquat•6/23/24, 12:38 PM

Actually now that I think about it - KDE isn't running in Game Mode at all, so it's scaling settings wouldn't matter, would they?

The Bazzite docs are really good. Are the docs mostly done by just Nick? I did pick up a minor issue that the anchor links don't seem to work so I cannot link a specific section in the docs

Kasher_CS•6/23/24, 12:47 PM

Garuda Icons?

That should work. Next time you start steam it will reinstall but your games and other stuff should still be there

I'll give it a try, thank you!
Do you know if this any easier in non-gnome versions of bazzite? I kinda wish I could also just drag them to the taskbar.

nope you need to make the

you can use menu editors to just add it to the menu, kde has one built in, i think on gnome you can use

Hmm

BBjarke Hmm

Kamquat•6/23/24, 1:11 PM

you need to find where the executable is.

which qrenderdoc

which qrenderdoc

might find it

BBjarke Hmm

HikariKnightOP•6/23/24, 1:11 PM

/absolute/path/to/executable

/absolute/path/to/executable

as told by snow

Bjarke•6/23/24, 1:11 PM

I did enter in the path for the working directory

Bjarke•6/23/24, 1:11 PM

HikariKnightOP•6/23/24, 1:12 PM

working directory is which directory the executable will be launched from as it will alter the behavior for some applications

Kasher_CS•6/23/24, 1:13 PM

Add your working directory to the command

Bjarke•6/23/24, 1:13 PM

Got it

Works now! thank you

Kamquat•6/23/24, 1:15 PM

Can anyone confirm if Game Mode does or does not inherit/use the scaling settings set in Desktop mode?

Alldino•6/23/24, 1:15 PM

I have a semi dumb question but umh, how should i use integer scaling? How do I know if its working, does anyone know of some document or instruction?

thanks

Kamquat•6/23/24, 1:16 PM

In game mode it's just an option in the right hand menu

Kasher_CS•6/23/24, 1:16 PM

gamescope

gamescope

I belive supports it

Alldino•6/23/24, 1:16 PM

yeah if i access the right hand overlay i can enable integer scaling

Alldino•6/23/24, 1:16 PM

but im not sure if its working or how to know

Alldino•6/23/24, 1:20 PM

as i've understood it, what you gotta do is pick a lower resolution ingame and then it will work automatically to scale up to the devices display, but in bazzite idk what resolution i even have

Snoweuph[matrix]•6/23/24, 1:23 PM

The Desktop files are a standard, but in case of KDE Plasma, you could just use the menu editor

BBjarke Hmm

Snoweuph[matrix]•6/23/24, 1:23 PM

use the absolute path

BBjarke I'll give it a try, thank you! Do you know if this any easier in non-gnome versi...

That's not a B450

Kasher_CS•6/23/24, 2:10 PM

Seems like a perfecally well B450 to me

Kasher_CS•6/23/24, 2:10 PM

With a 2560x1440 display

ZZeglius A 3DS?

Valerie•6/23/24, 2:10 PM

Yeah, got moonlight set up on it.

It is bad. Very bad.

Valerie•6/23/24, 2:10 PM

BUT it streams controller input which is surprisingly fun

Kasher_CS•6/23/24, 2:10 PM

3DS made in 2010 is truly the pinnacle of handhelds

Valerie•6/23/24, 2:11 PM

I'm trying to find settings that make the display even semi-usable but it's... hard.

Zeglius•6/23/24, 2:32 PM

kay, so whats the consensus with removing feral gamemode? I know there is system76-scheduler that deals with process niceness and so, but found out some weird behavior with running games without it.

Im doing some testing with XIVlauncher.
This is what happens when launching the game without it enabled (image 1).
Now with feral enabled in the launcher (image 2) and running gamemoded (gamemode daemon, probably a leftover, image 2) now it works (image 3).

That reminds me back then, with heroic launcher and Dying light, the game refused to launch. It only launched if i opened Steam, which Im suspicious if the later uses gamemode in some way.
