fixed trough pipewire settings as showed in the command line
pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.min-quantum 512 && PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command%
I had to increase pipewire's minimumn quantum value to prevent audio crackling
I previously had very minor audio cracking in MK1, then after I switched to a new CPU, the problem got much worse. The fix was manually increasing the quantum value (buffer) for pipewire.
Unfortunately, pw-metadata changes audio settings for the entire session, not just the application. I tried using application-specific ENV variables PIPEWIRE_QUANTUM="512/4800" %command%, but that didn't work for some reason.
Stutters alot, but also stutters alot on Windows. Had no troubles playing.
Skip shader compiling at the beginning, freezes the game on both Windows and Linux at 60 percent.
Runs decent besides shaders needing to compile while playing(if you skip that)
When you go from cutscene to game during story mode, it takes a little bit before you can actually load into the fight.
Only issues are shaders compiling during fights if you skip the initial shader compiling, which can mess up gameplay, and loading into fights for the first time.
Game crashes trying to warm up shader caches or when trying to access any mode (if skipped). Older proton crashes with missing dx12 error.
Currently unplayable
gamemoderun %command% -cpuLoadRebalancing -USEALLAVAILABLECORES
Inconsistent frame rate
It's okay despite the FPS being mostly inconsistent and choppy 60% of the time.
pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.force-quantum 512 && pw-metadata -n settings 0 clock.force-rate 48000 && ENABLE_VKBASALT=1 gamemoderun %command% -cpuLoadRebalancing
I had to force rate and quantum with Pipewire.
It is possible to skip the shader preparation phase. But if you cannot, the game can get stuck never finishing that phase, and one must delete the precached files (USHADERPRECACHE) from the steam folder manually.
It looks something like this:
find ~/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata/1971870/ -type f -iname *shaderprecache* -delete
Most of the problems you may face are common with Windows users. Some of the biggest problems seem to be fixed after latest patch.
- Upscaling doesn't look good in this game. Avoid using it if you can.
- Haven't noticed much difference between DX11 and DX12.
- Have tried VkBasalt to try to make it look better. Not a big deal either way, though.
Works out of the box!
Worked out of the box for me.
Works great! Minor fps drops
Some frame drops sometimes
Game works pretty good out of the box. Framerate drop sometimes, but that's because the PC version of this game is bad optimized.
низкая графика
не понимаю, почему игра с пометкой verifited максимум playeble, имхо
PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=0 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 gamemoderun %command%
works pretty much ootb, besides needing launch command to make nvidia DLSS working. online desync issues are NOT related to Linux/Proton. These issues are on Windows, too and are a general game problem that needs to be fixed by the developers of MK1
Game runs perfectly, even remote play / share play works!
Multiplayer, towers, story, remote play, local it all works as intended. Im very happy that these new games run out of the box at this point of Linux! I was a little worried about Remote play not working (to play with a friend who has a lower spec PC and doesnt own the game) but it ended up running just perfect! he got a stable 60fps, no disconnects or lag, no input delay.
MANGOHUD=1 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 gamemoderun %command% -cpuLoadRebalancing
Nvidia DLSS will not work OOB, but the game runs fine without it, since AMD FSR works OOB just fine.
Бачу всі рекомендують грати незважаючи на 30-40 к/с які дека видає навіть на мінімалках з ультра-перформанс FSR, але блін, як на мене з такою продуктивністю у файтинг грати - це кощунство. Так, цього вистачить щоб пройти сюжетку на мінімальній складності, але якщо хочете потратити в грі більше часу і мати більше трохи більше челенджу, скажімо навіть на середній складності, тоді вже треба практикувати комбо, а чим нижче к/с, тим важче ці комбо робити і лише приведе до розчарування.
Тому, якщо Ви фанат файтингів і хочете з гри чогось більшого ніж казуальненько пройти сюжетку, робити це треба точно не на деці.
I was able to successfully play the game with proton experimental after I updated my ubuntu from 20.04 LTS to 22.04 LTS.
Game runs stable at around 50 fps. I ran the game's graphics autoconfig and it capped my fps at 50 and it decided to not use the AMD FSR etc. It stays above 45 fps average when I run the game's benchmark tool.
I was able to successfully launch the game with proton experimental (bleeding-edge) after I updated my ubuntu from 20.04 to 22.04. On 20.04 LTS version I wasn't able to run it. Hopefully that helps other ubuntu users
Pause button sometimes would not function
Massive stutters when pausing the game
The game isnt worth the candle. 45 fps with a more or less soapy pkcture. This is critical for game like this. So fps arent constant.
Can't launch with nvidia/intel combo
I've tried different proton versions and launch options others have listed
PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=0 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 MANGOHUD=1 gamemoderun %command% -USEALLAVALIABLECOORES -cpuLoadRebalancing
wouldnt start fullscreen regardless of setting
only on M&K
I had to refund because I was unable to fix an issue where Denuvo thinks im tampering with the game causing 24hr cooldown where im unable to play https://support.codefusion.technology/anti-tamper/?e=88500006&l=english&s=at
PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=0 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 %command% -USEALLAVALIABLECOORES -cpuLoadRebalancing
Occasional stutter and framerate drops.
Specific for NVIDEA users, activate DLSS support by using the launch options provided, then choose DLSS in the graphics menu ingame. Noticed much better performance, from unplayably stuttery, to more or less butter smooth. Do still experience hiccups occasionaly, but putting that down to the game needing patches.
Was able to get locked 40 fps with default low settings and then manually putting shadows on low, texture to medium, bloom and ambient occlusion on, reflection off, particle density medium, upscaling method temporal at 85 resolution. Looked and played fantastic!
Works great, online (2 matches so far) also worked great. I had to disable my e-cores to resolve issue with choppy framerate.
some minor micro stuttering from CPU.
On 12-13 gen intel CPUs, there seems to be an issue with e-cores. I was getting minor FPS dips (average 58.5 fps)... just enough to make the game always feel very choppy and annoying. As described here [https://www.reddit.com/r/MortalKombat/comments/16jimhu/comment/k0rjrzq/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3], disabling my e-cores in my bios resolved it, and now I get a good stready 60 fps. This very much seems like a CPU optimization issue for the game, rather than a proton-issue.
Game installs, but doesn't launch
I installed it and first tried launching it, but at first nothing happened (I waited for around 5 minutes). Then I restarted steam and tried launching again, and this time the vulkan shader compilation popup appeared, ran for a while, finished, but the game still didn't start. I then switched to proton experimental (it was running with the default), proton 8.0-3, Proton GE8-14, none of which worked. I also tried with the flag MANGOHUD=1 gamemoderun %command% as recommended by some here, but it was the same, I click for it to launch, steam thinks its running (the blue stop button appears) but nothing happens.
Works really well! Great game, too!
I previously reported it wouldn't start. I closed Steam, re-opened it, a couple updates came in, and it worked. Don't know why it didn't work right after install, though it could be because I pre-loaded it and tried to play it early and Steam didn't see it needed an update? At any rate, seems like a problem with Steam preloading the game rather than the game itself.
MANGOHUD=1 gamemoderun %command%
Can't perform Fatal Blow (both triggers at the same time) on controller (XBox Series type). Had to use keyboard to get after that part of tutorial.
the change of launch options is optional (enables mangohud and gamemode)
MANGOHUD=1 gamemoderun %command%

Works fine but expect some long loading times
Sometimes freezes while in fullscreen
Game takes ages to start and expect long load times.
Installed and worked right of the box.
