This is cool, what's next? Ray-tracing...? Oh sorry, I mean path-tracing:tongue:

OpenMW 0.40 released, playing Morrowind on Linux natively gets closer to perfection

Hopefully when this is finished, they will move onto Oblivion and eventually Skyrim.
Then I think they should rename the project to "OpenES"(Open Elder Scrolls). Also, I wouldn't mind jumping in and help code should this happen.

Quoting: Nightmare TwilightPersonnally, I'll be starting on a new port.....well a test port anyways :S: , c++ to haskell. Going to see what this "functional" programming is all about. :D
As far as I know it’s not really possible to make games in functional languages. Also, that stuff is super complicated :P.
Is that a challange? :O

Havin' ported a small engine, first from DirectX to OpenGL and later from Windows to Linux, I prefer a native port. A dev can learn so much about a given platform, by doing a native and the dev/engine/game will be better in the long run.

Do We Want Ubisoft To Support Linux?
22 Nov 2014 at 8:49 pm UTC

@matsaa93
Ubisoft...RPGs.... So, what? Lunar Legends/Dragon Song? Grandia 1/2? Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance? The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind? If these are the "RPGs" you speak of, I'd rather the current Ubisoft not come any where near them. Why would we need Ubisoft for Oblivion and Skyrim? Last I looked, Assassins Creed wasn't a RPG...did I miss that memo?! Beyond the aforementioned RPGs, I didn't see any I cared for. Please help me understand why I should want Ubisoft games over Bioware games on Linux.

Divinity: Original Sin Delayed For Linux, Again

I remember a time when a company would delay a game, meant that they cared about releasing a quality game. If they are trying to bring back those days, I don't mind waiting.

I've started to tag games on Steam with "Unity3D", to remind me why I'm not interested in the game.
