Yeah... For that to happen, Epic will have to make the few clicks... It's not a given! :tongue:

Quoting: MohandevirIs Pipewire the solution to the long standing audio degradation issue with PulseAudio, when it comes to in-home streaming from a Linux host?

I have to disable all HDMI audio devices in Pavucontrol of the host computer to prevent that from happening.

Huh... I'll have to try that fix. Pretty much made everything unplayable for me after an hour or two. Thanks for sharing!

Can't promise it will solve your issue, but for my GTX 1660 Super, it's the way to go.

Could AC support be a Steam client side thing? Like in the Steam client scanning the Proton used to search and find any unauthorized modifications to the Proton build, compared to the officially supported version (template), before launching the game?

Just my non programmer 2 cents. :grin:

Just found that video...

Something I found interresting comes up at around 25mins... It seems that all the games that we're run, during the hands on, were games that developpers had time to adapt to the Steam Deck's devkit... Doom Eternal? Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order? Control?

He's got other really interresting comments too.

Quoting: skinnyrafDo we like software patents now, because Valve submits them and they serve Linux gaming community? :whistle:

Valve are at least a member of the Open Invention Network [External Link], which is a patent non-aggression organisation.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't recall Valve ever sueing anybody over a patent infrigement. Usually they patent stuff to protect themselves from patent Trolls. It's more like a "Patents are a reality we have to deal with, so let's do what must be done to protect ourself from them".

Edit: Is this feature something that could be used to, let's say, prevent the Steam Deck from downloading 4k textures on a 800p screen? That would be awesome!

Counter Strike: Source.

2 hours of time play. Online shooters are not my gig, but I wanted to support the Linux push.

Quoting: LinuxwarperI believe Valve will achieve a level of compatibility to make most of people's library playable, assuming anti-cheat support comes. They don't have to reach 100%, but the percentage treshold that is acceptable at launch. With developers entering the fray, Proton compatibility will accelerate much faster in 2022 than it has the years before. Media spreading FUD about compatibility isn't helping.

Quoting: MohandevirSeems Boiling Steam's Ramey interview is making the buzz...

Seriously..?

I just meant that PCGamer felt the need to correct Ramey's opinion... Making the buzz is probably exagerated, but it had echoes at PCGamer:

That's not what Griffais was referring to though. When we interviewed the Steam Deck developers last month, and asked how Proton was shaping up, they were still very much of the idea that it should just all work come launch.
