You must use the Linux build to play Dota Don't force the use of proton for it or vac will not work
Could it be that you're forcing Dota2 to run with proton? (Properties -> compatibility -> uncheck the box) Because Dota2 runs natively on Linux and VAC marks games running via proton as unverified.
I had no idea, I had some issues running native and I somewhat gaslight myself into thinking Valve somehow deprioritized Linux support.
I guess my problem is solved then. Thanks!
Never had issues with Dota 2 on Linux. I wasn't using any sandbox, by the way. System's package manager for almost all applications, with the exception of Bottles on Flatpak.
Do you use the native version or do you use proton? I heard that this issue also occures when playing TF2 using proton.
Flatpak? I imagine that's the problem...
Flatpak usually works fine with anti cheat. More likely a proton issue like other people are saying
Indeed, that seems more likely.
