It may be old, and it's not Dirt Rally 2, but I don't care. I'll definitely buy it anyway.

Instructions for claiming your key are at the end of the article.
So will the key be automatically sent to me?
What happened when you clicked the blue "click here to claim" text?

Of course, if you signed up just for this less than 24 hours ago, you'll have to wait for a bit. As the article explains.

Egosoft to launch X4: Foundations on November 30th, hopefully with a Linux beta build

Quoting: ShmerlInterestingly, their system requirements list Vulkan for the Windows version: https://www.gog.com/game/x4_foundations [External Link]

Minimum: Nvidia GTX 780/970 or AMD equivalent (Vulkan support required)
Recommended: Nvidia GTX 1070 or AMD equivalent (Vulkan support required)


Though funny that they didn't bother to specify what the AMD equivalent is. That's not very user friendly.
You're right, this is too common. I'm sure they've tested on AMD, but this kind of makes you think that they haven't. I'd assume an RX 570 should be close to a GTX 780/970?

Quoting: FredOThe first 3 are going for just 5€. Hair Works is not working with Nvidia 415 driver in the Witcher 3. I understood that they fixed that, but I lost track in which driver version?
You'll need the Vulkan developer beta driver [External Link] 396.54.09 for VK_EXT_transform_feedback. On Ubuntu you can get it from this PPA [External Link].

The Witcher 3 GOTY [External Link]
Hi adamhm,

Thanks very much for your amazing scripts.

Wondering if your Witcher 3 GOTY script enables playing the game near perfectly on Linux?

I was very impressed by your Shadow Warrior 2 script which worked perfectly for me, despite not having the latest Nvidia graphics drivers on my Debian Linux install. (I'm still on Nvidia 390.87 :/ ).
I'd assume the script works fine, but for Witcher 3 you will need stream output support which is only in 396.54.09 for now. Otherwise you'll get some glitchy and invisible enemies.

No, unless you buy it from their own store.

If a Zachtronics game doesn't make your brain hurt, you're playing it wrong.

Go to their Unix drivers page [External Link]. Pick a version, download it and run the file. That's about it as far as I remember :)
Why would you install manually on Mint when you can use a PPA and forget about manual updates for the rest of time?
