Classic Unreal Tournament lives on with a new OldUnreal upgrade, 64bit now on Linux
9 Aug 2023 at 5:30 pm UTC

Quoting: Zaphod9099It's there and is executable, but when I run it it errors thus:

-rwxr-xr-x 1 alan alan 154100 Jul 26 15:59 ut-bin
-rwxr-xr-x 1 alan alan 154100 Jul 26 15:59 ut-bin-x86

❯ ./ut-bin
zsh: no such file or directory: ./ut-bin

That's the 32bit version, the 64bit binary should be ut-bin-amd64.

You might get a confusing error like that if your system isn't set up to run 32-bit software.

Quoting: Zaphod9099So can I ask a really basic question: one you install the patch, how do you run UT on Linux? What is the command?

Should be ut-bin in either the System or System64 directory.

Usually you need to manually cd to the directory and launch it from a terminal like: ./ut-bin

Lovely bit of detective work tracking down the game, sometimes the chase is better than the catch!

Quoting: damarrinI'm going through some rough times in life now and visual novels are basically the only thing I "play". I just don't have the energy to overcome hardships in games for the moment.

Sorry to hear that. Hope things turn around soon so you can tackle some Dark Souls levels of difficulty!

Steam desktop and Steam Deck get a fresh stable update

Quoting: poiuzWhat's the state of VK_EXT_graphics_pipeline_library on Steam Deck with Proton 8? Is it always enabled or must I manually add RADV_PERFTEST=gpl?

Check the Mesa version used by the Deck? It's been enabled by default starting with 23.1.0.

Wine 8.13 is out now with plenty of bug fixes

Quoting: mrdeathjrThis wine version comes with Wow64 support in WineGStreamer (could affect cinematics), however once stay avalaible ubuntu packages add more info

:smile:

In this case I think it refers to the new experimental WoW64 mode. So no changes unless you build Wine with --enable-archs which isn't used by default yet, I think.
