  • I tried all of the above, but Diablo 4 continues to freeze.

    Using proton ge instead of normal proton

    This made no difference at all

    Install via lutris instead of steam.

    This I cannot do because game is purchased via Steam

    Use PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=1 %command% as the launch options. This tricks the game into thinking you have an amd gpu and disables nvdia specific optimizations that could maybe cause issues.

    This made performance MUCH worse, but game still froze after a few minutes.

    %command% -adapter 1 might switch to the gpu if you’re on a laptop with integrated and dedicated graphics.

    This was not an issue since game was already using correct GPU.

    I also reinstalled OS/D4 just in case and that also made no difference.

    I’m just super surprised this isn’t a more common problem. If this was a D4 or Proton bug I’d expect a ton of people complaining, but I can’t find any reports. This makes me think this is specific to my setup, but I completely reset everything and started from scratch and yet it continues to freeze. Super fucking frustrating.


  • I am talking about Diablo 4.

    There’s no crash log, Proton log just abruptly stops when the game freezes.

    I did try all Proton versions including custom and ge with same results.

    I bought the game via steam, so I’d have install via steam even if I use Lutris, right? Not sure how Lutris works.

    Steam and game use correct gpu so that’s not an issue, but I will try to hide Nvidia gpu and see if it helps. I decided to start with OS reinstall. If that doesn’t work I’ll try the other suggestions.

    Thank you.








  • On one hand I hate that legit users are punished for the actions of few cunts selling massive plex libraries and using Hetzner because of cheap storage and unlimited transfer, but I sort of understand that plex doesn’t want to be associated with piracy (lol).

    On the other, fuck Plex. Seems trivial to detect these massive libraries with hundreds of “friends” and just shut those down. Seems insane to block a whole fucking provider over this. I’ve been a paid subscriber since day one and then bought a lifetime pass, but this dumb move is making me consider other products.

    But on third hand, I don’t really care because I use tailscale so I almost never use the plex’s proxy anyway.
