I set the poolsize higher and the loading shutters are now barely noticable.
Got my first crash after 5hrs on second run.

All in on HTC and Valve!

Vsync on/off, quality level does not seem to have effect on fps on my 650M. Mouse is a bit laggy like Bioshock Infinite and also CPU seems to be limiting factor (like BI) as I get 50% load over all threads.

Can confirming the rope slide transitions trigger massive framedrops till short freezes. That could be optimized as most GPUs have 2GB+ and the transitions are really frequent.

No crash or overlay problem or key binding issue occured till now.

Quoting: Segata SanshiroIt’s quite pretty I guess, but only being able to see it from the insides of this truck-shaped prison leaves a bitter taste in my mouth.

There are at least 3 views in ETS2 (havent bought scandinavia, because the bundle price is less than the DLC alone!?)
1. Cabin view from inside with look on the steering wheel...[last picture]
2. Top down view (best for parking or narrow edges)[first picture]
3. Outside view (truck is centred but the viewing angle should be free)[no pic, can provide proof]
{4. Garage view for modification paint jobs}[second picture]

Quoting: edoI'm glad to see it is coming to linux, even if I don't want it.

I agree, the concept looks quite boring to me. But AAA game is AAA game and so its great.

+ Maybe Linux users are more concerened about their privacy and don't fill it.
+ GTA V has some impact but I wouldn't overrate it that much: Most played non-Valve but way behind Dota and CS:GO
+ I seriously can't remember when I got the survey on Linux, probably some years ago, but when ran my Win7 (happens very very rarely) it popped up at least 2 times.

Quoting: sonicWell, I prefer native version, but I will give it a chance. Maybe if we throw some money at them, they will make Arma 4 native :)

My thoughts on this might be the same: Porting an released title can be non-native if the performance isn't that bad because the publishers will get less earnings due to lower prices and interest. If they make a native -probably more expensive- port they might get discouraged if they loose money and won't release other Linux titles.
Future titles should be native to show comparable or maybe even better performance than Win versions. I hope that Vulkan API and the "final" SteamMachine releases will kick-start Linux gaming later this year.

Quoting: TheGeckoxxI doubt it.
It seems that just how the content size is saved in the depots has changed.

I'm pretty sure your right and Liam is unfortunately wrong.
There are really a lot depot changes at that specific time ( of non-Windows type?):
Dying Light: https://steamdb.info/app/239140/history/ [External Link]
Bioshock Infinite: https://steamdb.info/app/8870/history/ [External Link]
Metro Last Light Redux: https://steamdb.info/app/287390/history/ [External Link]
The Witcher 2: https://steamdb.info/app/20920/history/ [External Link] (hints that Linux is just wrapped Win?)

To me it looks quite obvious that the port is cancelled because of 2 month inactivity. We shouldn't be that sad because there are many promising ports announced to be released this year.

If it just takes 2 guys and 4 months to increase the sale of a project of hundred persons and some years by 1% Techland has a good fortune by every Linux game published.
But maybe Linux game devs are paid 10 times as much as the others cause they are rarer...

Quoting: pete910The sheer scale of that undertaking is mind bending. :O

They definitely had some things to work on. Many problems could have been avoided eg. lower/upper-case names if the "main" devs had more care in the first place.

Quoting: loggfreakDota2 is too much hardcore-complex and hard to get into

Dota isn' t that complex, just defend the ancient (HQ) at all cost! There are also ingame tutorials, bot matches and a good ranking system.

BTT: Once again I'm going with Tomb Raider. The chances aren't high as I think "all hands" has to be a hint and I can't see any connection.
