Quoting: LinuxerQuoting: Avehicle7887ok i tried clicking the play file too and it also does nothingh. nevermind i can just wait. i was wondering why those missing things cant be on that zip file ppl download from github? all there and click that play file?Quoting: Linuxerok nice for being so kind. i got it to download and i extracted and clicked the file theforceengineYou need to launch it from the 'play.sh' file. If that doesn't run it still, chances are you're missing some libraries. Open up a terminal and run the 'depcheck.sh' file, it will tell you what's missing.
but nothing happens. i mean maybe i should just wait for the next version ... im not getting anywhere :/
Quoting: LinuxerI think you're nearly there, what you're missing are just some libraries. Running the 'depcheck.sh' file in terminal will list what's missing.Quoting: Avehicle7887ok i tried clicking the play file too and it also does nothingh. nevermind i can just wait. i was wondering why those missing things cant be on that zip file ppl download from github? all there and click that play file?Quoting: Linuxerok nice for being so kind. i got it to download and i extracted and clicked the file theforceengineYou need to launch it from the 'play.sh' file.

now what :dizzy:
Quoting: Linuxermaybe you could send it to the developer? and he could add it to the github and we would all just easily download it and get to play dark forces alreadyBesides not being very familiar with github (I only know a few basic stuff), I don't wish get involved.

Here's a portable pre-compiled binary of the latest version. I tried to include all the important dependencies however you may still require to install some of them for your distro. You can run the "depcheck.sh" file, it will print all the libraries the game is still missing.
Game files are not included of course.

I'm ashamed to say that as a 90's kid I only had ever played the first level back in the day, I guess I wasn't a big Star Wars fan. The game looks amazing at high resolution, I've been playing it for several hours and thoroughly enjoying it.
Supports ultrawide too :grin:

Recently even dxvk and vkd3d-proton had some HDR related commits. Glad it's finally coming together.

I'd say right now the only reason to use the DX12 version is to enable FSR2.

Quoting: ShmerlPerformance experience with DX12 version is really bad. DX11 one works well.Just gave it a shot with the newly released vkd3d-proton 2.8, game loads fine however fps is very unstable compared to dx11.
