despite this gamemoded isnt working at all for steam games only yet .exe files seem to actually have a effect
persona 3 portable is a game im testing with it yet it seems to run worse ever since ive installed gamemoded being stuck at a constant 1-2 fps despite the game being able to run at a full 60 at almost high settings back when i used gamemode on opensuse
ive tried putting the command directly in steam and also launching through lutris and having feral gamemoded be active in global settings
my version of lutris is gotten directly from the software center
ive also tried having gamescope be enabled or disabled which does not help with the fps of the steam game at all
lsfg frames barley help as well its probably the only reason it can reach 2fps as well
using dnf rm gamemoded says it deletes it but still leaves some files of it in my system when i try to delete those to get some fresh install of gamemoded it says i dont have accsess i also dont want to delete them yet in case they make this situation worse
ge-proton does not change the fps amount as well
