F1 2015 released for Linux by Feral Interactive, Nvidia only for now, port report, video and more included

Speaking of Feral, I've got a Feral t-shirt in size 3XL that's way too large for me. I won it at a Facebook competition Feral held a few weeks back. They didn't have any XL left so they sent this one.

If it's the right size for you and you want it I'll post it to you if you PM me your address!

I forgot the Mac part in this. Can't be Doom then. :-(

Oh well. Gta5 perhaps! (j/k)

Well, Doom DO use Vulkan, so... Just sayin. A port at some stage is not insanely unlikely. Maybe unlikely it's done by Feral though.

Quoting: Samsai808 SB12S could be a reference to MC Hammer lyrics

I can't find these lyrics when googling - what's the title of the track? What is MC Hammer refering to with "SB12S"?

Cause it's the cryptic "SB12S" that is the most confusing here, imo. If we solve that clue I got a feeling we're a huge step closer.

There is now an open source driver and GTK3 based UI for interacting with the Steam Controller

Quoting: Mountain ManThat's an impressive interface for an open source project.

My exact same thought. Sadly. :) But yeah, very very slick interface.

OpenRW, an open source engine for Grand Theft Auto III

Quoting: wvstolzingOn the other hand, Vice City has loads of vehicles (motorcycles, helicopters, a plane, several RC toys) that had no counterpart in GTAIII; maybe those could be difficult to implement.

That's just assets, objects with properties. They all operate under the same physics, provided by and rendered by the engine.

Quoting: nifkerSadly requires the original game files.

Why is that sad? Or surprising?

First Steps with OpenVR and the Vive on Linux
18 May 2016 at 6:52 am UTC

Omfg I'm so totally sold on Vive. Ever since I tried the first edition of the Rift there was no doubt for me: this is a vagon I'll jump on for sure.

But I NEED Linux support first.
