[Solved] Hotline Miami (Steam version) slow

Hi, I just switched from ubuntu (minimal-cd custom install) to arch (both x86_64) and I'm having issues running Hotline Miami.
I installed steam from the AUR and followed the wiki instructions, I got it running native (STEAM_RUNTIME disabled) and installed the game.
Thing is: the game used to run fine on the same machine with the previous ubuntu install and now it runs kind of slow-motion.
I have other games that are more hardware intensive and run fine, it looks like it's specific to this game.
I'm thinking it might be related to the video drivers but I really have no clue to what I should change. What can I do to get more information about the problem?

My hardware:
CPU: Intel i5-3230M 2.6GHz/3.2GHz (Turbo boost)
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000
Memory: 6GB DDR3

I don't know if this can help, but it can't hurt to know:

$ pacman -Q | grep video
videoproto 2.3.2-1
xf86-video-ark 0.7.5-6
xf86-video-ati 1:7.5.0-2
xf86-video-dummy 0.3.7-4
xf86-video-fbdev 0.4.4-4
xf86-video-glint 1.2.8-6
xf86-video-i128 1.3.6-6
xf86-video-intel 2.99.917-3
xf86-video-mach64 6.9.4-5
xf86-video-neomagic 1.2.8-4
xf86-video-nouveau 1.0.11-3
xf86-video-nv 2.1.20-6
xf86-video-openchrome 0.3.3-5
xf86-video-r128 6.9.2-4
xf86-video-savage 2.3.7-4
xf86-video-siliconmotion 1.7.7-6
xf86-video-sis 0.10.7-7
xf86-video-tdfx 1.4.5-6
xf86-video-trident 1.3.6-7
xf86-video-vesa 2.3.2-6
xf86-video-vmware 13.1.0-2
xf86-video-voodoo 1.2.5-6

Thanks in advance  smile

Re: [Solved] Hotline Miami (Steam version) slow

Might be stupid question, I'll ask it anyway. What's partition type you have your steam library on ?
Why do you have drivers for every possible configuration ?
Why is your steam from AUR and not from [extra] ?
Why would you disable steam runtime ?

You can run steam from console and see if there are any errors when game starts.

Uhm... this might not be related, but for some reason I cannot imagine, that you have all those video cards installed. Why keep all those drivers? Uninstall them all and keep only xf86-video-intel

Re: [Solved] Hotline Miami (Steam version) slow

sorry, I have steam from multilib repo, my bad:

pacman -Ss steam
community/sl 5.02-3
    Steam Locomotive runs across your terminal when you type "sl"
    as you meant to type "ls".
multilib/steam 1.0.0.49-2 [installed]
    Digital distribution client bootstrap package
alucryd-multilib/steam-libs 1.0.0.49-4 [installed]
    Collection of libraries to launch Steam without its runtime
    environment

I have my steam library on the default location $HOME/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/
wich is in an ext4 partition.

About all those drivers, I really don't know where they came from, I'm sure I didn't explicitly ask for them, I'll remove those,  test it again and report back here.
About steam runtime, I read on the wiki that it might be kind of a performance hog, so I thought that could be the problem, but it didn't solve it (it did improve performance for other games, though).
Thanks guys smile

Re: [Solved] Hotline Miami (Steam version) slow

Alright, I removed the other video drivers rebooted and re-enabled STEAM_RUNTIME, but the game is still slow. Steam fps counter says 24fps, but the gameplay itself is running slow (this game is very fast paced).

The video drivers again, after the cleanup:

$ pacman -Q | grep video
videoproto 2.3.2-1
xf86-video-intel 2.99.917-3

The output of steam with STEAM_RUNTIME enabled (automatically), the game launching, trying gameplay and exiting the game:

Re: [Solved] Hotline Miami (Steam version) slow

alucryd-multilib/steam-libs

Please try to remove this third party repository and see, if it works with regular Steam. This is the first thing you should do, try the default. Mentioning the extra repo might have pulled in the right people.

Re: [Solved] Hotline Miami (Steam version) slow

I tried it without alucryd-multilib/steam-libs. I did try the default first, but I'll give it a go anyways smile
I figured it would not a problem with hotline miami itself because I used to run the game (steam version) in ubuntu with the same hardware, so I know it's something about this new install.
thanks for the help smile

Re: [Solved] Hotline Miami (Steam version) slow

Hi guys! I fixed it, finally.
I was beating my head over this so much that I didn't notice the "Joystick handle" option in the launcher was set to "0" as default (instead of "No Joystick") I tried switching that and now the game runs fine.
Thank you guys for the help again! I knew arch wouldn't let me down big_smile

Re: [Solved] Hotline Miami (Steam version) slow

Good to see you worked it out; I just got into that game myself, and it's pretty sweet. Please remember to edit your thread title and mark it as [Solved].
