LUG-Helper

Star Citizen's Linux Users Group Helper Script
https://robertsspaceindustries.com/orgs/LUG

Greetings, fellow Penguin!

This script is designed to help you manage and optimize Star Citizen on Linux.

Zenity menus are used for a GUI experience with a fallback to terminal-based menus where Zenity is unavailable.
Command line arguments are available for quickly launching functions from the terminal.

Configuration is saved in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/starcitizen-lug/.
Keybinds are backed up to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/starcitizen-lug/keybinds/

Options:

Preflight Check

  • Runs a series of system optimization checks and offers to fix any issues.
    • Checks that vm.max_map_count is set to at least 16777216.
      • This sets the maxmimum number of "memory map areas" a process can have. While most applications need less than a thousand maps, Star Citizen requires access to more.
    • Checks that the hard open file descriptors limit is set to at least 524288.
      • This limits the maximum number of open files on your system. On some Linux distributions, the default is set too low for Star Citizen.

Manage Lutris Runners

  • Quickly install and delete Lutris wine runners

User Folder Maintenance and Troubleshooting

  • Switch the helper between LIVE and PTU

    • Toggle between targeting LIVE or PTU for all of the above options. Defaults to LIVE on each run.

  • Delete my Star Citizen USER folder and preserve my keybinds

    • The helper will make backups of any exported keybinds, delete your Star Citizen USER folder, then restore your keybind files.
    • To export your keybinds from within the game, go to:
      • Options->Keybindings->Control Profiles->Save Control Settings
    • To re-import your keybinds from within the game, select them from the list:
      • Options->Keybindings->Control Profiles

  • Delete my shaders only

    • Sometimes all you need to do between major version updates is delete your shaders directory.

  • Delete my DXVK cache

    • A troubleshooting step that sometimes helps fix various issues and crashes.

  • Reset Helper configs

    • Delete the configs saved by the helper in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/starcitizen-lug/

Get a random Penguin's Star Citizen referral code

  • Display a referral code for a random member of the Star Citizen Linux Users Group.
