Quoting: omer666Once again, great job Feral! I dared trying the "Ultra" preset and it runs really well on a Core i7 4770S + GTX 666 + 16Gb of RAM. I hope I'll get the same kind of performance with other titles to come...

The GPU of the devil...! :D

Quoting: ElectricPrismAnyone recommend any good Local Multiplayers with Full Controller support? I want to collect a couple more Steam Controllers and some Local games to play w/ friends.

For two people:
Lovers in a Dangerous Spacetime [External Link]
(Didn't test with Steam controller.)

Quoting: GuestI think it is a known issue with non-English locales (if your locale uses the comma as a decimal separator, probably). It works for me but my system is in English.

That fits, I'm living in a decimal comma country. Should not be too hard to fix though, the game itself runs perfectly.

Quoting: GuestEdit: BTW, I’m quite happy with the performance: 60 FPS on High with vsync on, even though the game auto selected "Low" video settings for me… Core i5 4690K @3.5-3.9GHz, GTX 660 2GB, Xfce, Compton, Gentoo.
Anyway the game looks about as good on low settings (-> 170 FPS or so).

Same here! Got a preset of low for my GTX660, set it to medium (minimal fps > 70) and then to high (minimal fps > 60).

I found my game, bought at the sale, not starting beyond Feral's welcome screen.
Found out you need to disable it, otherwise the game fails to start up.

Quoting: TheBossEdit: We haven't got an article about Mel yet?!? I need to write one!

Samsai covered the release, but more articles are (almost) always welcome. :)

Thanks for poiting out!
Something seems to be suboptimal with the Website's search function...

Quoting: TheBossIf it requires any form of payment to get into it, no it's not a free game.

Yeah, sounds reasonable.

Edit: We haven't got an article about Mel yet?!? I need to write one!

Is "Portal Stories: Mel" a free game? It is a free fan DLC for Portal 2...

Quoting: NoYzECool! Didn't know its out for Linux too because on their DL page it's only for Windows and Mac.
Thanks for the info!

It's no offical release yet, but it already was functional for others and now it's for me as well.

BTW, they've gone a long way since this article. :)

Quoting: minjnpm is a node package manager
node.js package is typically called node or nodejs

I haven't got experience with this stuff, I just saw it pulled in. You're probably right, the description is: "package manager for Node.js - Node.js is an event-based server-side javascript engine. npm is the package manager for the Node JavaScript platform. It puts modules in place so that node can find them, and manages dependency conflicts"

Quoting: LukeNukemSounds like it's bloating... I'll stick to Unreal Engine, and GoDot.

When writing it I wondered if I should leave the "dozens of packages" out. I don't know how much hard disc space this actually is, but I feel a full-featured game engine for several platforms does need lots of stuff (probably node.js is a rather small part of). I guess Unreal Engine is large as well...?

Adding to the crashes topic: I used the new version of the editor now and this is the first version of Unity on Linux not crashing very quickly on my system - actually not crashed at all! Thanks to the developers, now I finally can give it a try!
