UZDoom the successor to GZDoom has a first proper release out now

Quoting: JuliusDoes anyone know if the Selaco devs will switch over and where they plan to upstream their engine improvements now? I haven't followed this very closely.
A couple Selaco devs have talked about this in their Steam forums, thankfully. They currently use a very modified version of GZDoom that they maintain themselves, so they weren't really effect by this whole situation at all. Their custom engine version is completely public and open-source, but I imagine it isn't good for general use due to how Selaco-fied it is. I think they pull from GZDoom(or now UZDoom, in reality) and add to it whenever they deem it would be beneficial for whichever direction the changes go. But I don't think they'll rebase the Selaco engine to UZDoom, at least not anytime soon since by the time that they would think it's a good idea to do so, UZDoom will likely have already made a ton of changes that would break lots of stuff in Selaco. Not a dev though, so just a theory on my part.

Fallout 4 'Next Gen' update out now and Steam Deck Verified

Sad to see there is still a lack of good HFR support. Going above 60fps just speeds up the game and installing mods for any Bethesda game on Linux is a less than ideal process that doesn't always work. Good to see it's now Deck Verified though.

I'd really like to win because I've never really played any town/city building games and this seems like a good place to start since this looks really well made with a unique design!

Valve release new stable update for Steam Deck and desktops

Quoting: DMGCan anyone explain, what is situation with steam and latest NVIDIA driver? Before I seen comments, that steam don't work with newest NVIDIA driver. Now they fixed it or have to use some workaround for that?
Steam has always worked with Nvidia. What hasn't worked though is the new big picture mode since for some reason, BP on Linux doesn't work well on Nvidia. It should've been fixed up recently though.

Flathub seeks funding to add payments, donations and subscriptions

I like the sound of this but the idea of subscriptions for FOSS stuff makes me nervous. Yes I know stuff like Spotify is on there but it still makes me nerves nonetheless.

No Man's Sky Fractal gets a VR overhaul, new Expedition, Gyro update
23 Feb 2023 at 11:31 am UTC

Despite this being a pretty VR-centric update, the VR version of the game still runs pretty badly on windows. I'm hitting an average of 45FPS with DLSS at max and all settings on low. Yet somehow the devs record 60FPS footage for trailers and such. I might be doing something wrong but looking at some steam forums, it looks like I might not be.
