I’m trying out Bazzite again after about a year with CachyOS because I don’t have time for tinkering anymore and only play games maybe once a month or so. Anyway, I’m playing some Hitman tonight and noticed this lighting bug a few times. I remember seeing it in Cyberpunk 2077 when I was using Bazzite about a year ago too, shortly before I switched to CachyOS. Does anyone know what’s causing it and how to fix it? If it’s a big deal to fix I won’t bother as I don’t have much time for computers, and don’t want to spend most of that fixing a bug. I took a couple more pictures too, I’ll show below.
If it’s important at all, this is pretty much a clean install, I haven’t done any tinkering at all and have barely downloaded anything either. I downloaded a VPN, a password manager, and otherwise I think everything else is what came with the distro. I have the game running from an external HDD if that makes a difference. I played the game a couple months ago on CachyOS with zero issues.
What version of proton are you running? Cachy has its own version that works great, I'm using it on arch via the AUR altho I don't run cachy. Idk what bazzite comes with.
Do you only see this issue on bazzite?
There are other arch based distros you might have better mileage on if you keep having this issue with bazzite but want something different than cachy, like endeavorOS.
Also protondb you can filter by hardware to get even better results.
You can use Cachy proton on Bazzite by simply selecting it in the compatibility options. It's one of the versions in the drop down menu.
The game itself still needs to run the cachy proton, it is unclear if they are setting any proton version or just using the steam default
