33 | 34 | ```sh | |
34 | - | gamescope -W 3840 -H 2160 -r 165 --hdr-enabled --hdr-itm-enable --hdr-itm-sdr-nits 300 -f --mangoapp | |

67 | + | but no one knows why or how it happens, and many times it's hard to get logs. If you happen to have these issues and can provide logs or useful information, | |
68 | + | please do so on the proper channels. | |
74 | 69 | ||
75 | - | ### Placebo flags | |
76 | - | ||
77 | - | `-W -H -w -h -f -b` don't have any effect. I can freely change my resolution and fullscreen settings ingame and it'll work just fine. | |
70 | + | ### Performance | |
78 | 71 | ||
79 | - | Reading gamescope's readme, it mentions: | |
72 | + | When you run gamescope, you might notice on the terminal something like | |
73 | + | ||
74 | + | `No CAP_SYS_NICE, falling back to regular-priority compute and threads. Performance will be affected.` | |
80 | 75 | ||
81 | - | > You can spoof a virtual screen with a desired resolution and refresh rate as the only thing the game sees, and control/resize the output as needed. | |
82 | - | > | |
83 | - | > This can be useful in exotic display configurations like ultrawide or multi-monitor setups that involve rotation. | |
76 | + | Performance WILL be affected. After a while, your game will look like a slideshow, but your frame counter will still display the FPS as normal. | |
77 | + | ||
78 | + | That means you have to set the niceness of gamescope. Run, as *sudo*: | |
84 | 79 | ||
85 | - | Probably I can run the game on a lower resolution without impacting my desktop's resolution and use the FSR flags to upscale it. Maybe I can even downscale the game? | |
80 | + | ```sh | |
81 | + | setcap 'CAP_SYS_NICE=eip' $(which gamescope)` | |
82 | + | ``` | |
86 | 83 | ||
87 | - | `-r` seems funky though. Sometimes not setting it will lock the game to 60FPS, sometimes it has no effect at all. | |
84 | + | It seems that after a while it loses its niceness, so I made a systemd service that runs on login, | |
85 | + | checking if the niceness is set, and setting it if it's not. Check the `01.gamescope-niceness.service` | |
88 | 86 | ||
89 | - | There's also a flag to limit the max FPS but it doesn't do anything, or a setting on mangohud might be conflicting with both flags. | |
87 | + | ### VRR | |
88 | + | ||
89 | + | VRR (adaptive sync, GSYNC) will **not** work on NVIDIA cards if you have more than one monitor enabled. There are no solutions, no workarounds, | |
90 | + | and I don't think NVIDIA has even recognised this issue. | |
91 | + | ||
92 | + | While this is not a problem related to gamescope, mangohud or gamemoderun, I've added this section because it might come in handy. | |
93 | + | ||
94 | + | By disabling any extra monitor, VRR will work again. I've made the `02.start-gamescope.sh` script to be run as a launch parameter on the game, | |
95 | + | it'll start a gamescope window, turn off my extra display and start the game with gamemoderun and connecting it to the window. | |
96 | + | When quitting the game, the script turns the extra monitor back on and properly disposes of the gamescope window. |

3 | + | ## Preface | |
4 | + | ||
5 | + | I'm using endeavourOS, KDE PLasma 6.1, a RTX 3080, Wayland, and my main monitor is a Samsung Odyssey Neo G7 (3840x2560 165hz "HDR10") | |
6 | + | ||
7 | + | Ideally, these are my launch options for each game: | |
8 | + | ||
9 | + | ```sh | |
10 | + | gamemoderun gamescope -W 3840 -H 2160 -r 165 --hdr-enabled --hdr-itm-enable --hdr-itm-sdr-nits 300 -f -e --mangoapp -- %command% | |
11 | + | ``` | |
12 | + | ||
13 | + | There are some issues with it: | |
14 | + | ||
15 | + | - Steam overlay and input won't work (`-e` flag is broken) | |
16 | + | - `--mangoapp` won't show GPU and gamemode info | |
17 | + | - Game might freeze randomly | |
18 | + | - Performance is incredibly low after a while | |
19 | + | - `-W -H -w -h -f -b` don't do anything | |
20 | + | ||
21 | + | ## and the workarounds... | |
22 | + | ||
23 | + | ### Steam overlay and input | |
24 | + | ||
25 | + | [GitHub issue](https://github.com/ValveSoftware/gamescope/issues/835) | |
26 | + | ||
27 | + | Creating a gamescope window on the terminal and attaching the game to it will work. | |
28 | + | ||
29 | + | First I run this on a terminal: | |
30 | + | ||
31 | + | ```sh | |
32 | + | gamescope -W 3840 -H 2160 -r 165 --hdr-enabled --hdr-itm-enable --hdr-itm-sdr-nits 300 -f --mangoapp | |
33 | + | ``` | |
34 | + | ||
35 | + | Then set the game's launch options: | |
36 | + | ||
37 | + | ```sh | |
38 | + | DISPLAY=:x gamemoderun %command% | |
39 | + | ``` | |
40 | + | ||
41 | + | Where `x` is the display number, shown on the gamescope terminal output. | |
42 | + | ||
43 | + | The game might take a while to open up and also to completely exit, but it works just fine. | |
44 | + | ||
45 | + | ### mangohud and --mangoapp | |
46 | + | ||
47 | + | Running it as `mangohud` before `%command%` will show GPU info but not gamemode, and apparently there are issues running it this way. | |
48 | + | ||
49 | + | I have to investigate if I have these supposed issues, and if they are related to any config about vsync and/or framerate locks on mangohud. | |
50 | + | ||
51 | + | ### Game freezing | |
52 | + | ||
53 | + | Possibly due to HDR flags but I'm not certain. Needs a reboot for the game to open again. | |
54 | + | ||
55 | + | I haven't had this issue in a while, might've been fixed in an update, might've been something I did. | |
56 | + | ||
57 | + | ### Performance | |
58 | + | ||
59 | + | Have to set the niceness of gamescope. Run: | |
60 | + | ||
61 | + | ```sh | |
62 | + | sudo setcap 'CAP_SYS_NICE=eip' $(which gamescope)` | |
63 | + | ``` | |
64 | + | ||
65 | + | It seems that after a while it loses its niceness, so I made a systemd service that runs on login | |
66 | + | ||
67 | + | checking if the niceness is set, and setting it if it's not. Check the `gamescope-niceness.service` gist | |
68 | + | ||
69 | + | ### Placebo flags | |
70 | + | ||
71 | + | `-W -H -w -h -f -b` don't have any effect. I can freely change my resolution and fullscreen settings ingame and it'll work just fine. | |
72 | + | ||
73 | + | Reading gamescope's readme, it mentions: | |
74 | + | ||
75 | + | > You can spoof a virtual screen with a desired resolution and refresh rate as the only thing the game sees, and control/resize the output as needed. | |
76 | + | > | |
77 | + | > This can be useful in exotic display configurations like ultrawide or multi-monitor setups that involve rotation. | |
78 | + | ||
79 | + | Probably I can run the game on a lower resolution without impacting my desktop's resolution and use the FSR flags to upscale it. Maybe I can even downscale the game? | |
80 | + | ||
81 | + | `-r` seems funky though. Sometimes not setting it will lock the game to 60FPS, sometimes it has no effect at all. | |
82 | + | ||
83 | + | There's also a flag to limit the max FPS but it doesn't do anything, or a setting on mangohud might be conflicting with both flags. |
