<p>Getting Assetto Corsa to work on Linux was slightly harder, although not by much, all I had to do was run it with Proton-GE 9-20 and that fixed any issues that I had with trying to start the game.

Also, the launcher opens a seperate game window that doesn't raise to the top automatically, I spent about 10 minutes waiting for the game to load, only to realise it had already loaded and was running underneath the launcher window.

<p>Yes. Overall, it wasn't bad, and pretty easy to get going, but I didn't expect anything different from the Linux gaming ecosystem in 2025, we've moved on from a lot of issues and I'm glad this is one of the issues we have moved away from.</p>
