foreign life Posted Monday at 08:48 PM Posted Monday at 08:48 PM Hello fellow aviators! I have been wanting to switch my OS to Linux Mint as the times are shifting and Linux is becoming more and more supported by game developers. Does anyone already run DCS on Linux? I know there is a thread somewhere from 2024 but I think that is outdated since there is no longer ST or MT versions. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you, Flavi | foreign life 1
BitMaster Posted Wednesday at 08:54 PM Posted Wednesday at 08:54 PM Hey Flavi, yes, I have a DCS install also on Mint Linux via Steam for a long time, just out of curiosity and because I like to tinker a lot. The only drawback are peripherals beyond Hotas, like TiR and likely most VR solutions. My TM gear and rudders work out of the box but TiR is a No-Go as far as I could research it on google so far. You need to enable Proton in DCS/Steam btw. There are other ways but Steam is pretty straightforward and has the highest rate of success, ymmv! 1 Gigabyte Aorus X570S Master - Ryzen 5900X - Gskill 64GB 3200/CL14@3600/CL14 - Sapphire Nitro+ 7800XT - 4x Samsung 980Pro 1TB - 1x Samsung 870 Evo 1TB - 1x SanDisc 120GB SSD - Heatkiller IV - MoRa3-360LT@9x120mm Noctua F12 - Corsair AXi-1200 - TiR5-Pro - Warthog Hotas - Saitek Combat Pedals - Asus XG27ACG QHD 180Hz - Corsair K70 RGB Pro - Win11 Pro/Linux - Phanteks Evolv-X
