This video covers using a Python script to set up Linux distributions for gaming by installing WINE, Lutris, Steam, GOverlay, MangoHUD, Feral Gamemode, Proton-GE and the latest drivers for nVidia and AMD.

Click on the green Code button at the top of the page, click the Download ZIP and extract the archive once downloaded.

Give Setup.py Execution Rights

Open a Terminal and type the following:

chmod +x setup.sh

Installation – Python Dependencies

Open up a Terminal window in extracted folder and type the following command:

./setup.sh

Choose your distribution, type in your root password, begin the installation process, and once finished close the Terminal window.

Installation – Linux Gaming Python Script

Open a new Terminal window in the extracted folder and type the following:

./GamingSetup.py

You will be presented with three options, Drivers and DXVK installation, Useful tools and programs, and Exit.

Choose the Drivers and DXVK installation first, specify your distribution, choose your GPU manufacturer, follow any further instructions, and reboot the system once installation is complete.

On reboot, run the script again in the Terminal window, only this time choosing Useful tools and programs.

Once again, specify your distribution, and you will be greeted with several installation options:

WINE (Essential), Lutris, GOverlay with MangoHUD, Steam, Feral Gamemode and Proton-GE.

Install them in the listed order, and once all software is installed, set up Steam to use Proton for all games and use GOverlay to configure how you want MangoHUD to appear.
