Basically the title. I’ve only ever seen huge 20 page guides on how to make it work. Is there an easy way?
Specifically on Debian or Arch with a laptop with two gpus (zephyrus g14)

If there’s a game that doesn’t work on Linux because of anti or something it probably won’t work in a vm either so dual booting would probably be the way to go to avoid that
@variants @shapis Not true, a root-kit will break it in wine because wine is just translating windows sys calls into Linux sys calls, but a vm is actually running a windows kernel, then the root kit anti-cheat works fine. With GPU pass through, I have found no games that work under Windows won’t also work within the VM.
Vanguard (Valorant, LoL) detects a VM pretty easily.
Damn that really fucking sucks man :/
I mean, I hope they keep doing that because Valorant sucks. Everything about it is boring and 20 bucks for one gun wrap is outrageous. The rootkit is invasion of privacy I don’t want to reboot just to play. The rounds go on for so long people just get bored and start griefing… If you leave early the game punishes you hard. There are plenty of better games to play. Not to mention it’s only KB/M no cross play no ability for players with disabilities. Perfect for conservatives who only care about themselves like to have players begging to drop their wrapped guns
At least MiHoyo’s anti cheat detects and blocks VirtualBox VMs as well as Waydroid.
@lord_ryvan Interesting, haven’t played that game so no experience with it. VirtualBox does do some things a bit differently, I was not able to get flyff to run it well, it runs but at about 3fps, where as it runs normally in kvm/qemu.
There are many signs for software running in a VM to realize it does, especially if you want an easy setup. In theory you could mask that, in practice it would be very tedious, time consuming, and not perfect enough anyway.
@halfapage I’m saying from experience, nothing I could not get to run in a VM that ran in a physical machine.
You can absolutely run stuff on VM with approximately native performance and it’s not even that difficult to set up. I meant that it’s not easy to obscure fact of running inside a VM from programs such as anti-cheats, which seemed to be an original concern.
@halfapage Anti-cheats don’t generally care if they’re running in a vm as long as they can insert kernel drivers.
Maybe anti-cheat software does not care if it is running inside a VM, but online-multiplayer game developers do, and they will ban you for using a VM.
@PlasticPaperplane I’ve never been banned, but ok.
