Bad reply on GOG's side, I think they had better not reply at all than throwing the silly 'Install Windows' response.

Instead of the Steam Deck, I think GOG should support Linux on the desktop to begin with. They're already half way there, all that remains is the extra mile with native client and multiplayer support. Hell, some devs even refused to release their Linux versions due to lack of Galaxy entirely.

With some effort they can be the 2nd best Linux game storefront to buy from.

Following up from this announcement, I did ask the dev about a Linux GOG release and here's what he had to say.

At the moment, the VR and LINUX builds are additions I create and manage from a personal interest, without much of a commercial upside. The game isn't huge on PC, but Steam allows me to experiment this way.

The burden of releasing on multiple platforms is to be honest more than one person can handle, and without a commercial upside that makes it difficult to add something like GOG.

Imagine the QA, testing, store support that needs to be done, it's substantial.

So I do appreciate GOG users, and always made sure they get every main update. But I don't see an easy path to provide a secondary platform to GOG, sadly.

I can kinda understand his reasoning, even if it does spell bad news for GOG users.

I finished this game a couple of months ago and really enjoyed it.

If you're looking for a great Diablo 1 alternative, this is it.

The developer decided to do a native port, as they wanted the experience to be as good as possible for the Steam Deck.

Hopefully they won't stop there and release the Linux version on GOG too.

This is gonna be an exciting release. PS1 and PS2 are my fav consoles. I regret not buying any original PS1 games back when they were common and prices weren't through the roof. However I did keep a few PS2 rpg's for emulator use.

And on that day DooMCraft was born. Cool project.

Never had the patience for Minecraft. I tried Minetest but got bored fast.

I regret not buying it for PS2 when it got released. To see it now coming to PC, and Linux too? That's a must have.

I think you used to have to set VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr (or dxr11) to enable it in VKD3D?

Might want to check the logs from Wine/VKD3D if that doesn't work.

Thank you, that was it. I used the 'dxr11' option. :grin:

For anyone curious how Control looks and performs with RT on at max details here's a couple of screenshots:

Any AMD user managed to get ray tracing working? Speaking of Control in specific.

Steps I've taken so far:

- Compiled Mesa 21.3.0
- Downloaded VKD3D-Proton
- Made sure the game is running DX12 not DX11 (I've even renamed the DX11 exe to make sure it doesn't launch it).
- Running recent Wine (6.19) with a clean prefix.
- Overrides used "d3d12.dll and "d3dcompiler_47".
- Wine Prefix is set to 'Windows 10'
- "export RADV_PERFTEST=rt" is also enabled.

Despite all that, the Ray Tracing option is grayed out and I'm at a loss what I could be missing.

Aside from that, everything is working as expected with OpenGL and DXVK.

Any help would be appreciated :)

€640 for entry level is a steep price. With that amount you can get a Deskmini X300 with a desktop 5600G CPU which makes for a much faster mini PC.
