Unity 5.3 released, hello modern OpenGL system for Linux gaming

I installed kde-config-gtk-style to access gtk configuration with KDE means.
It was set (defaulted to?) mimic KDE style.
I had to change the theme, away from "oxygen-gtk" to e. g. "Adwaita", as well as the icon set, away from "Oxygen" to e. g. "Human" or "GNOME". None of the changes helped on its own, but both together did.
I've added the information to my crash report as well (https://fogbugz.unity3d.com/default.asp?752348_h2u0eet2qa350ie5).
Thanks for your help!

Quoting: TakThanks, I finally managed to get a file dialog! X)Quoting: Eikemake the editor not crash on load and save project under non-GNOME environmentsFrom what I've seen, this has been a Gtk theme issue for the people who are experiencing it. You may have better luck if you try a different/standard Gtk2 theme.

Quoting: leillo1975The game is playable in Low settings, but better in Very Low.I guess we can conclude it does make use of 4 cores? :)

Quoting: lucifertdarkAh, ok... I guess I cannot bolster you up here - it will take much time to play through it. Though it's totally worth it.Quoting: EikeI like the game very much, played through it on Windows, and when it got ported to Linux I bought Enemy Within and played through in permadeath mode. But when you say you cannot get a grip on it - maybe it's just not your cup of tea?No it's not that, there's just not enough hours in my days to really give this game the time it needs for me to get anything out of it, I love the older games in the series & played them to death when they first came out .

I'm giving no guarantee that this won't f**k up your system, obviously, but it works for me and if you need help on this, I could provide that on weekend.
The method is like the one I used to install Steam on Wheezy:

Quoting: nIQnutnMy distro only likes stable but if it's only the nvidia driver, I'll install it soon.I'm running Debian stable as well, but with the nvidia drivers from "experimental":

Quoting: lucifertdarkI still haven't got past the first mission on Enemy Unknown, I just never have the time to sit down & really get to grips with it & now they've got a second on the way.I like the game very much, played through it on Windows, and when it got ported to Linux I bought Enemy Within and played through in permadeath mode.

Was refraining from sales and Humble Bundle to support them with a Linux sale - for a sales price, not for 40€.

Quoting: chrisqAs much as I've been waiting for this game I can't help but being a bit disappointed of the price.Same here. :-(
It has been on sale several times the last few months at 75% off and basically for free on Humble Bundle.
To top this off the feral store, where I'd like to buy it, are selling it for close to 50% higher price than the complete package on Steam...
I will certainly get it, it just bad paying Euro 70 for something that will go for ~$10 in a few weeks at xmas sale.

I just cannot find the existing report anymore where several people with other DEs than Gnome couldn't use the Linux editor. :-/
Thanks for making the editor available for Linux by the way. I'm not sure I'm creative enough to make a cool game, but I for sure would love to give it a try.

Quoting: OZSeafordOne question I would have though, oblivious of platform, what games would you have waited for in general, windows games that is? Are there hundreds?For me, I really miss Fallout 4 and the next Elder Scrolls (and today a colleague told me again that I should play "Brothers - a Tale od two Sons").
Quoting: OZSeafordPersonally, I find that the output of games coming out is too big for me to follow, and I have plenty on my plate.I've got more than enouhg to play as well, but for the other question... Why would he? Even if we would have all games from Windows, which will never happen because noone will port all those old games, there still needs to be some other reason to change.
Whether that is enough to convert someone coming from Windows?

Quoting: DamonLinuxPLWell, if in a country ruled by socialists who control it in a socialist EUUtter nonsense. Socialist parties in the sense of what Poland and the GDR had are illegal in Germany. And the conservative party is the biggest part of the government coalition.
Quoting: DamonLinuxPLwe in Poland already change government and now is much better but old government very complains to the socialists in the EU as a new government is bad, but it's not true.By changing the supreme court on day one? You may want to ask Andrzej Zoll about that. If I would be religions (which I'm not), I'd pray for Polands democracy, which they fought hard for in the 80ies.
