Glad to hear about more developers' journeys with switching to Godot 4. AFAIK, the project migratory is a bit lacking in most parts since it mostly stopped development after 4.1 released. By that point, developers had either switched to Godot 4 already or stayed with 3.

I'm so glad that someone is trying anee gamepad like operating system for handhelds. It's nice to have alternatives to SteamOS, plus ChimeraOS and HoloISO (which aren't as bleeding edge as this)

Quoting: JarmerWhat exactly is "frame pacing" ...? Is that just referencing lower than expected fps? Or general stuttering like with a lot of unreal engine games? Or some specific technical issue I've never heard of before?

Frame pacing is the time taken to generate a new frame.

Has anyone tested this driver to see how well it's doing now? Last I heard, the main developer said that the only game it ran better was A Hat In Time. I'm interested to see if that's changed.

Oh, that's actually really clever. Find an open source engine amd improve its XR implementation. Then you can get feedback on how easy your API is to use AND an example for other closed source engines to look at for their own implementations. Plus, Godot developers get to enjoy the better XR tooling. A win-win!

Out of curiosity, Liam, why are you still using the old Proton logo that you made instead of the official one?

Quoting: scaineI'm sure console owners will still find something to whinge about though

In this case, though, it's entirely fair. Console players have to rebuy the game if they bought it in early access. A massive middle finger to anyone that we're supporting the Devs.

While I'm glad that they even addressed the Deck, I'm not entirely sure why any developer or publisher has to explain that their game WONT WORK ON THE FIRST LAUNCH. Imagine they did that with any other platform and they'd get slammed immediately.

Quoting: Liam DaweBut that makes literally zero sense in this context. What are they going to extinguish exactly? They're contributing to make their open source driver better - it's exactly what we want.

I think people are just confused why Nvidia has suddenly done a 180 and are worried that it's just another trick rather than some actually good news.

If it was bad news, though, why bother going through the trouble of open-sourcing stuff and then hiring developers? I think the worst thing that could happen is that Nvidia takes all the credit for providing good open-source drivers despite it actually just being the tremendous efforts of a select few.

I'm glad that they did this but I'd just wish that, if they're going to keep this game on maintenance mode, they would just hand this over to an outside team while they keep the IP
