A bit late, but sure. Makes it more convenient since I don't have to enable Invisible to not bother others with what I'm playing.

There is also an xwaylandvideobridge update [External Link], which makes it not start when already running in x11.

Oh, hey, Hitomi Downloader, that's nice. One of my favorite video downloaders back on Windows, it was pretty annoying when it didn't run on Wine (at least, I don't think it worked right on Wine).

No more Visual Novel festival? Well, then again, most of the good stuff there are Japanese games with rather risque nature, some outright requiring a separate patch for any enjoyment (Subahibi, for example, only have the prologue without patch and none of the denpa contents it's great with).

Quoting: AL2009manI'm surprised this hasn't been done much sooner.

We kinda have this with steaminput, but this is more independent, and probably more adaptable to more game engines.

Quoting: Liam DaweI've regularly covered Game Dev news for years now, there's even a dedicated tag for it :)

That's true. I guess this is just more low-level than I'd usually see, which is Godot, Blender, and the rest of the big giants so I didn't put it in the same mental category.

Huh, would have expected this content to be on Phoronix, but gamedev news is nice.

Quoting: emphyApart from the brute force method of disconnecting the pc from the internet, is there any option to disable library refresh on startup or offline mode?

Probably use Flatpak or Firejail and run it without network/internet permission? I tried looking up the source code and the files for heroic in case there's an option for it (like --no-gui and --no-sandbox it uses by default for exported games) but I couldn't find a full list or reference to skipping library update.

thanks @fenglengsun
this was somewhat what I was expecting. of course, this upgrade will only mean that it defaults to this, not totally dropping support for X or changing my current configs... because I have been running steadily updates for a long time. so this would affect only new install..i hope.. if I understand correctly?

As far as I know, yes, I don't see any note on removing KDE's x11 session packages. Also, some distro might still ship them as default anyways - I know that a lot of Arch users aren't enthused by it and the opinionated Arch distros might still default to x11, and I doubt Debian would want to remove the packages for as long as it exists upstream.

Fixed mouse clicks in the overlay for CS2.

Me playing through Cold Steel 2: "The JRPG game? Why would- oh, wait, not that CS."
