For me, it’s Shared GPU memory.
Except for online games, pretty much all the other games work without any tinkering for me since at least a year
Glad it works for you, I have the exact opposite exepeirenxe with most games (I rarely play online).
To the point I sometimes feel like I’m taking crazypulls
I even wonder what games are u talking about ,wanna try to run on my machine
The one who probably provided me the most trouble and headache over the years is my favourite anno, 1404 history edition
Are you using Steam, or games from another service? I’ve only found 1 or 2 things that didn’t work immediately on Steam, but I have an absolute hell of a time getting anything off Steam to run, it’s like pulling teeth. Especially older Windows games; they’re just a non-starter most of the time.
I just use a single Bottle’s bottle to install a bunch of off-Steam games. Contains many older windows dependencies; you have to install them yourself but they are found within the bottle’s settings.
I remember trying to get Sims 3 working for my partner, it had all sorts of missing textures, kept crashing and had poor performance. Turns out you need a 4gb patch?? made from the community? Decided to toss it in my bottle and it works flawlessly. Have not tried dos games but may be worth a shot.
From steam, to lutris to base wine to he to trying a couple back cause nothing else worked.
Saw it all, did it all and I hazard a guess I soon will see it all again
