The native linux BeamMP-Launcher will start and use native linux BeamNG.drive !!!note "Configuring Native Linux Game Path"
To use the native Linux version of BeamNG.drive (better performance than Proton), configure the game path in `Launcher.cfg`:
Find your BeamNG installation:
```bash
find ~/.steam ~/.local/share/Steam -name "BeamNG.drive.x64" 2>/dev/null
```
Create or edit `~/beammp-launcher/Launcher.cfg`:
```json
{
"Port": 4444,
"Build": "Default",
"CachingDirectory": "./Resources",
"GamePath": "$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/BeamNG.drive/BinLinux/BeamNG.drive.x64"
}
```
Common paths:
- `$HOME/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/BeamNG.drive/BinLinux/BeamNG.drive.x64`
- `$HOME/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/BeamNG.drive/BinLinux/BeamNG.drive.x64`
