I can't make 7 days to die work with VRR (FreeSync).

Any reason it is not working?

Game is native linux, game has 2 engines (GLCore and Vulkan). I use GLCore because Vulkan I think it's beta and crashes. Game also has some launcher.

OS: Ubuntu 23.04, running it with Xorg. VRR works in other games (like games running with Proton).

Thanks in advance

Edit: nevermind. I installed Plasma Wayland and VRR works out of the box. I'll use plasma while playing this game. And go back to gnome for other games.

I'm still interested in making VRR work in gnome for this game. But workaround is found.

This "game" is a bugged mess with no devs so it's not such a surprise.

Nevermind. I installed "Plasma" and launched the game using "Plasma (Wayland)".

VRR now works.

So I'd say this was not a game's issue. It's something related to gnome when launching some games.

I generally run Proton games and gnome X11 handles VRR in those.
