Native or not interested.

Seems harsh I know, I feel wine is a get out for some devs to the point were I feel wine actually hinders in some cases .

Am not saying Wine is bad by any stretch btw, I see wine as a means to run legacy/old programs that no longer have support/developer gone

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided released for Linux, port report and review
17 Nov 2016 at 5:25 pm UTC

Quoting: Jahimself5.1 works very good for me. But I use Linux Mint, and the 5.1 appears properly on sound control panel and works out of the box. Sounds support is a lot better than in Mad Max imo.

Cut scenes do, game don't. Not sure what could be different regards Mint's sound config to any other distro's

I have looked to see if there are any libs missing but not found anything.

What's your setup?

Can you do a vid like this one https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EybFn5voLio [External Link]

Have tried numerous things with no luck.

Deus Ex: Mankind Divided released for Linux, port report and review

Quoting: edddeduckferal
Quoting: pete910
Quoting: Pera
Quoting: MajGuanoDoes surround sound work, 5.1 or 7.1?
I'd like to know this too. It's really frustrating when almost every new game on Windows supports surround sound out of the box, but Linux ports of said games are often stuck to stereo only for some reason.
From my testing no it does not :(
Others in this very thread have it working fine, sounds like you might have something setup differently that is causing an issue.

See other thread to see. https://www.gamingonlinux.com/forum/topic/2167/post_id=8664
