Terrible performance on Zorin OS

[Ivan1919]

I downloaded Avorion on a fresh install of Zorin OS with wayland but I get terrible performance even in the main menu. I tried to use proton but the performance is even worse.

I have a rtx 3070 ti and intel i7 11700k

Also when I launch the game I get this warning:

What is the output of "glxinfo | grep OpenGL" (without quotes)?

It looks like your Nvidia driver is not properly installed or it is not recognized as the primary device for OpenGL.

Can you try "__NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia  glxinfo | grep OpenGL" (without quotes)?

This is the output

Ok, your Nvidia driver is working, but it's not used as default for OpenGL, this is some configuration issue on your system.

The proper solution is to fix your driver issue or system configuration issue.

Workarounds you can try:

• Set environment variables __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 and __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia globaly for your user profile
• in Steam right click Avorion in your Library game list, go to Properties, General, set launch options to: __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia %command% - Avorion should start without the error message then
• in Steam right click Avorion in your Library game list, go to Properties, Installed Files, Browse, a file explorer should open where Avorion is installed. Right click, choose "open terminal" (or go to the same folder in a terminal), use __NV_PRIME_RENDER_OFFLOAD=1 __GLX_VENDOR_LIBRARY_NAME=nvidia bin/Avorion to start Avorion (do not go directly into the bin folder)
