Amazing release, I was always under the impression Hexen/Heretic already had widescreeen support :D

Been playing Blade of Agony lately, solid 10/10 commercial quality grade game.

Been going through Wolfenstein - Blade of Agony, I like old shooters best and this game checks all the boxes perfectly.

EDIT:

I've compiled the latest build from github and removed all gzdoom configuration, sound issue persists with this game.

You may need to make sure you're running a recent version of libopenal, as per https://github.com/Realm667/WolfenDoom/issues/590 [External Link].

I came across that very same thread this morning and solved the issue by upgrading the library too.

Thanks for the link :)

The new single file shader cache is probably my favorite addition in this release, goodbye to thousands of small shader cache files.

It's currently disabled by default. To enable system wide you can add MESA_DISK_CACHE_SINGLE_FILE=1 to your "/etc/environment" file. I didn't run into any issues and saves me the headache of deleting thousands of files if I want to clear and rebuild the cache.

I had no idea the Linux update was delayed and was under the impression it simply didn't make it GOG yet, glad I was wrong :grin:

This is by far the most enjoyable roguelike I've ever played.

Quoting: DebianUserHmmm, i think i have to drop Debian... MESA is the only thing problematic (i can have recent packets via flathub integrated to gnome-software, but MESA is another story).
Maybe Ubuntu... any advice on a good Debian-based distribution, maybe rolling release ?
I can debootsrap on my old Windows partition (not booted from 2017). :grin:

I use Debian for decades and its simply the best for me.
You have to compile Mesa... its easy and you can switch to any driver version you want by environment settings, symbolic links, ldconfig, etc... so flexible.
This way you can have many drivers installed... like 20.3.1, 20.3.2, 20.3.4... 21.0.1, 21.0.2... you get it.

Maybe I should write a little docu.

Oh, if you write a doc, ill be your first reader !

OK, stay tuned. Give some time...

Thank you very much, i have tried right now:
Install libdrm and meson from unstable with apt-pinning... but steam:i386 (and other packages) is linked to the default libdrm-common version and is uninstalled in the process.
I understand i have to set a prefix in meson, but i also have to update llvm.
After all that, i think i have understand that i have to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LIBGL_DRIVERS_PATH to select another MESA version.
I have reinstalled default Buster libdrm(-*) and all packages removed earlier, i'm returned to square one.
All that to say i'm not asking without searching first, i think i'm on the right way, but it is definitely out of my knowledge.
Don't hesitate to PM me when you have news on the doc ! :D

The llvm team have debian packages on their website which are easy to install. It is also possible to compile it from source but I would advise keeping that as a last resort.

Been playing good old Exhumed/Powerslave using the Raze engine. I get quickly get bored with modern shooters, with the exception of a few. Old ones though keep shining no matter what.

As for the recent Metro Exodus release, I'm still waiting (and hopefully) for it to make it to GOG too. I've done a full playthrough in Wine already but wouldn't mind a round 2.

Hopefully the Mac and Linux versions will also make it to GOG, it's quite a big release so I'll be a little more patient.

I finally went ahead and got the game, not a big fan of the camera angle but the game has proven to be quite fan so far. Looking forward to Kenya :)
