Never had the overlay issue, Does this only happen under certain circumstances ?

Run Manjaro since Antergos packed in.

Quoting: HamishGreat time for my GPU to have suddenly quit on me isn't it?

Jokes on them though, with the drought eating into my bottom line I could not afford to replace it regardless of the market conditions. Yay me! :grin:
Why does drought eat into your bottom line?
Farmer maybe ????

You'd be surprised of some of the things that are stolen.

It doesn't work in Proton?
Last time I tried it ran crap compared to native for me, The point is I would rather they update the native client tbh

Quoting: pete910This brings back some memories :cry:

For me it was ut99 and Q3A , Them where the days......

Used to have some epic times in at lan parties with mates.
Ah, those were the days when the UT games actually came with linux support (even if you had to download the installer afterward). That all changed with UT3, which got delayed and delayed and finally Icculus said it wasn't going to happen because of middle-ware. Sad days. So Epic HAD a history of supporting Linux, they just bailed on it, and even though other games could have been released on it, they have not been...

I've been hankering for finding Heavy Metal F.A.K.K. 2 for Linux, but haven't managed to locate it. I do have Heavy Gear 2 and some of the other Loki releases. Also have most (all?) of the LGP releases.
Indeed, I remember looking all over for the UT2004 linux installer only to find it on the disc :shock:

I had LGP's port of x3:reunion back in the day, Damn I put some hours into that. IIRC they had demos you could try of there various games.
