I migrated almost everything on Linux and, low and behold, the only game giving me issues is DOTA2.

I’m using Steam flatpack, it runs, I can play against bots, I can spectate games. The moment i try to play in matchmaking a VAC messadge pops up preventing me from starting a game.

I tried reinstalling, veryfying the files, installing on a differend hard drive, scanning the disks for errors.

Nothing worked. Any idea?

    Could it be that you’re forcing Dota2 to run with proton? (Properties -> compatibility -> uncheck the box) Because Dota2 runs natively on Linux and VAC marks games running via proton as unverified.

      I had no idea, I had some issues running native and I somewhat gaslight myself into thinking Valve somehow deprioritized Linux support.

      I guess my problem is solved then. Thanks!
