Note: This script is useful for people who run modded Darktide on Linux. If you aren't using mods then you can delete lines 7 and 8 from toggle_darktide_mods.sh so you just toggle the mesh streamer off.
Darktide on Linux runs great - for the most part. Sometimes you will notice that the game has gotten stuck with low level of detail meshes loaded.
I personally use VoiceAttack with DCS (Digital Combat Simulator) to manage radio menus and UI hotkeys that are difficult to find or navigate while in VR.
This guide explains the setup and usage of VoiceAttack with the intent to use it with DCS, but the process should be mostly identical for other games such as Elite: Dangerous or whatever else you might like to use it with.
Note: Even though I am using Valve's Proton (because it's the only thing that can talk to SteamVR currently), my copy of DCS is standalone and I run it via Lutris, not Steam. For steam games things are a bit more complicated.
