Quoting: LeopardFeral should seriously consider using DXVK for old titles. For example : Tomb Raider 2013

Why? Seemed to work just fine when I last tried it. If it performs better with DXVK for you, does it do so on all supported hardware out of the box? I doubt it's even worth the QA.

I have no doubt the Kickstarter will succeed based on how much people enjoyed Season 1.

...you can grab it from Humble Store which includes both a GOG and Steam key.

Are you sure it's a GOG key and not a DRM-free download directly from Humble? That's how it usually works. I don't see a mention of GOG anywhere.

Not an entry. I just wanted to doodle a TUX-Wing. :P

Quoting: rustybroomhandleI'm amazed he has the energy to still care about Linux porting since he's pretty much entirely a Mac user, unless I am mistaken. Matters not though - we still getting ports. :)

According to what I gleaned from a quick look at his recent tweets and other output, he still uses Linux on his workstation. Ubuntu or a derivative even.

Quoting: slaapliedjeThen you get things like ScummVM which is an interpreter of the original data files, so sort of fits in with what Wine is, but not so much as a compatibility layer as it is like python/perl where it just interprets code.

More like a collection of game engines [External Link] with some shared bits and a launcher UI. Some of the engines are based on original, freed up source code and others reverse engineered. Not much like Wine after all. :)

Quoting: FurorI had to reinstall all the itch.io games and apps again, as the new version didn't recognize the previous installed ones.

The install folder naming seems to have changed, and even renaming the old folders doesn't seem to be enough. Not a big problem for me, aside from having to do some manual cleanup.

Quoting: FurorAt least now I have an icon in the system tray.

I had a nice icon in the system tray with the old version as well. I'm not a big fan of the new red square actually.

Quoting: KelsHoly crap, I install and after entering my email and pass I have to go through FOUR captchas. That's a bit excessive.

Actually I went through seven because I had a typo when I entered my email. So three captchas the first time and four the next. I would say one is unnecessary and two is too much. This many is ridiculous.

Funny. I got none at all.

Quoting: PhlebiacIs it so that it doesn't try to run some Nvidia-specific code, like GameWorks/HairWorks/PhysX/<lockin-of-the-month>?

Can it really be called lockin if it doesn't actually lock you in? :)

Quoting: johndoeAs far as I know nvapi is not implemented in wine 3.7 (also Proton) but in higher versions of wine.

There's a stub implementation of nvapi in wine-staging. It apparently enables physx, but nothing else. Of course this is enough for many games.

Quoting: johndoeThe workaround is to spoof AMD to prevent this.

The official recommendation is to disable nvapi and nvapi64 for the prefix in winecfg, and that should be enough. EDIT: Nevermind.

What's interesting, is that Lea cannot speak at all!

What? Silent protagonist in a game? What will they think of next! ;)

But seriously, the game has been on my wishlist for ages. It looks and sounds like an enjoyable ARPG. The pace looks a bit scary, but I hope it's just the way the trailer has been cut together.
