Gaming Configuration Context

Technology Overview

Steam Tinker Launch (STL) provides advanced configuration options for running Windows games on Linux through Steam's Proton compatibility layer. This directory contains configurations, scripts, and documentation for gaming setups.

Key Components

Steam Tinker Launch (STL)

Purpose: Advanced Proton configuration and game-specific tweaks
Config Location: ~/.config/steamtinkerlaunch/
Game Configs: ~/.config/steamtinkerlaunch/gamecfgs/
Global Settings: ~/.config/steamtinkerlaunch/global.conf

Ready or Not Specific

Game ID: 1144200
Engine: Unreal Engine 4
Anti-Cheat: EasyAntiCheat (requires -noeac for modifications)
Common Issues: Menu freezes, audio crackling, GPU compatibility

Hardware Considerations

NVIDIA GPU Optimizations

NVAPI Support: Enable for DLSS compatibility
DXVK vs VKD3D: Prefer DXVK for better NVIDIA performance
GameScope: Use with proper display settings
Ray Tracing: Available with compatible Proton versions

Monitor Setup Considerations

Resolution Scaling: Configure GameScope for proper scaling
Refresh Rate: Match native monitor capabilities
HDR Support: Enable if hardware supports it

Configuration Patterns

Performance Settings

# Essential performance settings
USEGAMEMODERUN="1"          # Enable GameMode
USEPROTON="GE-Proton10-11"  # Use latest GE-Proton
DXVK_ASYNC="1"              # Async shader compilation
DXVK_HDR="1"                # HDR support for compatible setups

Audio Configuration

# Audio crackling fixes
CHANGE_PULSE_LATENCY="1"
STL_PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC="120"

GameScope Settings

# Display configuration template
USEGAMESCOPE="1"
GAMESCOPE_ARGS="-W [width] -H [height] -r [refresh_rate] -f --immediate-flips --rt --mangoapp --force-grab-cursor --"

Best Practices

Configuration Management

Keep per-game configs in examples/[game-name]/
Document hardware-specific settings clearly
Test one setting at a time when troubleshooting
Backup working configurations before changes

Performance Optimization

Start with GE-Proton for best compatibility
Enable GameMode for CPU scheduling
Use GameScope for resolution/scaling control
Monitor GPU usage with MangoHUD

Troubleshooting Approach

Verify base Proton compatibility
Test without STL modifications first
Add settings incrementally
Document working combinations
Check hardware-specific requirements

Integration Points

Monitoring: Use MangoHUD for performance metrics
Scripts: Automate common gaming tasks
Networking: Configure for multiplayer gaming
