Ok so I am on voidlinux. doing "ulimit -Hn" outputs "4096" And I can only move it down until 1024 or whatever with that command but temporally anyways. So I edited /etc/security/limits.conf and added "* hard nofile 1048576" at the end, but nothing happened, I've tried slightly different configurations of the file and still nothing. I have also rebooted multiple times so idk what's wrong.

Solved: First I was trying to change the number of open files limit or whatever apparently, second games still don't work, they're just as laggy and still crash but now without an error message in lutris specifically :thumbs up: Anyways I just followed this quote from the r/voidlinux subreddit “in /etc/pam.d/login add the line session required /lib/security/pam_limits.so to the bottom then do the same for the file associated with your DM i.e. /etc/pam.d/lightdm” and then rebooted or whatever.
