A great game that can be beaten all the way through without many issues on Linux! Highly recommended if one follows the tweaks!
When dying in certain levels I would encounter artifacts that resemble triangles
Avoid using the native version at all costs. Corrupts old save files!
The slowdowns that occur during huge waves are worse than in Windows.
Occasional crashes that can be "fixed" with the command down below.
To reduce the slowdowns and get better performance in general, install the following: https://github.com/FeralInteractive/gamemode
After having installed that, insert this line into the launch options:
gamemoderun %command% PROTON_NO_ESYNC=1 %command%
This will greatly increase the performance of the game while also reducing crashes.
Main menu works, but freezes and then crashes upon choosing a character
As a previous report stated, the game says "bad or missing configuration" in the menu.
I'm guessing that Anti-cheat is doing stuff again :(.
Proton works better than Native Linux port!
Simply choose the latest version of Proton and you will have a nice experience.
Requires installation of a few packages and a launch option to download mods, not friendly to casual gamers but is easily fixed.
%command%-mono
Out of the box you can't install mods through the mod browser. However this can be fixed by installing the following packages (Arch Linux): "sudo pacman -S mono mono-tools mono-addins" and then adding "%command%-mono" as a launch option. Afterwards everything works flawlessly.
Hosting a dedicated server is a better solution then hosting through steam. At least for me it took ages to start the server in-game compared to a dedicated server. However this might be a tModLoader issue, not a Linux one...
