# Notes related to gaming
A lot of older files that I haven't touched recently were moved to this
directory. I don't think anyone was using them, so I am not afraid of
breaking links.
## Wayland / Sway
### Issues and solutions
#### Constant camera rotation
Reload Sway in-game, `$Mod+Shift+C` and it should stop.
#### Cursor doesn't stick to game window
Run the game with `gamescope`.
Steam? Edit launch options for the game (second click, properties, general,
launch options):
```
gamescope --steam --borderless -- %command%
```
See also `gamescope --help`
* `--steam` - enables Steam integration, whatever that is
* `--borderless` borderless full-screen mode (that Sway may be making
windowed though)
##### Graphics corruption such as display full of black dots
When the previous launch options cause this,
```
INTEL_DEBUG=norbc gamescope --steam --borderless -- %command%
```
I saw this advice at [gamescope#356](https://github.com/Plagman/gamescope/issues/356)
which says it's tracked at [freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa#6029](https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/6029).
#### Steam client itself is laggy
Close/logoff friends window/network or disable its animations.
