Ha! Option comes two days after I deleted 100 gigs worth of games from my SSD and redownloaded it all to my HHD. I like to keep multiplayer games on my SSD for faster loading and single player games on HHD cause who cares about loading times, then.

Being able to set brightness or contrast using this option (and using it in the past with my old GTX 660ti) does not work, In game or on the desktop (Redshift). Not sure why this is, but I thought people should be aware. Unfortunately this makes it not an option for me.

Wow.. all the Steam Controller issues (and all the issues in general). They've been busy.

After trying it more in-depth today, I too, am having a problem with the ship not going either all the way up or all the way down or just moving a little bit (reported by WorMzy). Seems the problem is intermittent. Thanks for the key and am really excited for this game.

I got a key and tried it out for a minute or two this morning before work and works great. No problems I could see and looks fun. Thanks!
ARK: Survival Evolved plans to use Vulkan for Linux this year

Even though playing ARK runs smoothly on my GTX1060 on high settings (totally unplayable on my GTX660ti), there are still a lot of graphical artifacts that cause me to restart. Watching a streamer last night playing ARK on PS4, she also had the same artifacts when in the rain or next to water. I think the game just needs way more optimization in general. Would be cool to see on Vulkan, though.

I'm getting the login error, too. In the Steam discussions for this game, looks like lots of people are having this issue. They are suggesting stuff like verifying the files but doesn't seem to be working for anyone. I was really looking forward to playing this. Looks like my type of game.

Remove chromaprint as it conflicts with chromeprint-fftw. This will remove chromaprint without removing dependencies
Remove currently installed ffmpeg
Download and install flite as it does not build properly from AUR
Download and install nvidia-sdk as it doesn't build properly from AUR.
You can also download Video_Codec_SDK_7.0.1.zip from Nvidia's developers page. Just make sure you download it or move it to nvidia-sdk/ .You have to create an account or I have it on MegaSync: link [External Link] .
Find "" source=("file://Video_Codec_SDK_${pkgver}.zip" "" and change to "" source=("video-sdk-601" "" #or "" source=("Video_Codec_SDK_7.0.1.zip" "" if you're using updated sdk ..also I'm not sure if .zip has to be at the end of the file...I wouldn't think so, but if it doesn't work, rename video-sdk-601 to video-sdk-601.zip and change in pkgbuild accordingly. I tried with the newer sdk and worked so I didn't get to try with video-sdk-601.
That should have you running. If, like I said, you don't have these problems when trying to install ffmpeg-full-nvenc from pacman, then it's probably either Antergos or programs I have installed conflicting, but by the comments in the AUR for the packages I had to manually install, other people are having these problems too.

Quoting: eddie-fossI got it working on Antergos (Arch) with a whole lotta work. And by "whole lotta work", I mean I did a lot of learning. Now this might be because of my setup and programs I have installed causing these problems, but for most of the errors I got, it was because the packages in the AUR weren't compiling correctly.. I would suggest trying to install ffmpeg-full-nvenc and see if you get errors about the packages I'm suggesting to install first.. AUR isn't perfect. To the best of my terminal history and brain, here's what I did (from ~/):Quoting: AimelaSo, how can I get this working on Arch Linux?In AUR repos someone already did, the packages is called ffmpeg-nvenc or ffmpeg-full-nvenc :D

Quoting: AimelaSo, how can I get this working on Arch Linux?I tried on Antergos but the install of package ffmpeg-full-nvenc conflicts with Chromaprint. I managed to remove just that package without removing dependencies by pacman -Rdd chromaprint but then the install fails at installing flite do to a compiling error so I think I'm going to have to try doing it as close to this guide as I can get with Arch. I'll post what I did if I get it working. I couldn't find much with the Goog's with Arch users getting it to work.

My rig IS the required minimum. fx8350, GTX 660ti. Except I have 16 Gigs of Ram. I will definitely give this a try and report my findings.
