Go to the game installation folder, look for BinLinux directory, and start BeamNG.drive.x64 file.
By launching the game like that, u use the native version (Still experimental tho, but runs better than proton).

gmod_mcore_test 1
use x86_64 - Chromium beta
-vulkan -refresh 240 -refreshrate 240 -freq 240 -novid -sw -noborder -windowed -nojoy -nosteamcontroller -nohltv -precachefontchars -particles 1
use -windowed cuz fullscreen makes the game: not responding
I didn't get any problems with gameplay. I tested it on both arch and void linux and it just works.

In my opinion it's highly playable. Also on my proton version (proton-cachyos-9.0-20250426-slr-x86_64_v3) i could even play Ranked matchmaking. While on proton-ge i couldn't "connect to the servers".
It's the same as on windows
I was trying to get the native version to work (downloading libraries, creating symlinks to libs etc.) but it just doesn't work, and it isn't worth it. If you care about ranked you should give proton-cachyos a try. Otherwise just select any proton version and have fun.
