Launch of Liftoff: FPV Drone Racing at Ubuntu (own experience)

I've written before about the launch of Liftoff: FPV Drone Racing in macOS. I currently have Acer Nitro 5 on which I installed Ubuntu.XLINKENDX2X XLINKSTARTX2X The advantages of Ubuntu are free. Even 10 years ago, video games were not very compatible with Ubuntu. So playing popular titles was almost impossible. Now I am pleasantly surprised - top games behave well in Ubuntu. I've already tried CS:GO and Dota 2. It's a little unclear in the Steam store whether the game can run on Mac with M1/M2 or Ubuntu. And searching the network does not always answer this question. So that's why I take notes - share my own experience.

In short - yes, you can. Liftoff has support for Windows, macOS and steamOS. But it is not very clear from this information whether Ubuntu itself is supported.

If we move on to system requirements, we will get more information. SteamOS + Linux. Ubuntu 18.04 and later.

Installing Liftoff: FPV Drone Racing in Ubuntu with Steam like any other game.

To start training, connect the remote control/gamepad and start the game. I connected my 8BitDo Pro 2.

I tried to fly (~10 minutes) and everything seems to work quite well. I haven't changed the standard settings yet. The only thing that explains the question is some problem of rendering parts somewhere on the horizon (the mountains flash). After completing the flight and entering the menu, I saw the following message (Performance Issues Detected):

In this window, we can see recommendations on how to improve our gameplay. Reduce various metrics in game settings (graphics, visual effects, etc.). So we change the settings and train. Decreasing the quality of textures or graphics does not significantly affect the training process. By the way, this FPV drone simulator has Ukrainian localization (almost complete). So, if necessary, we switch the language to Ukrainian.
