NVIDIA pushed out two new Linux drivers recently with 396.45 and 390.77

Quoting: Avehicle7887Can anyone confirm if the 396.45 driver fixes UE4 engine games?
Quoting myself for this:

This driver fixes the UE4 white screen issues, I tested both Everspace and Ruiner and they're back to normal. Also DXVK 0.63 works with this version.

The Vulkan driver in 396.45 is version 1.1.70.

Don't miss the GOG weekend sale which has some rather nice Linux games

When I bought Wizard of Legend I didn't know what to expect, turns out it's a good game and can be quite challenging.

Still waiting on the Linux version of the first game to show up on GOG, I never played these games more than the first couple levels so it would be great to finally take a proper look at them.

Quoting: ShmerlJust tried Elex with Mesa compiled against nightly llvm. No hangs anymore, but cutscenes are still choppy (probably shaders compilation delay?).

Nice shot, are the smoke errors rendering correctly now (such as the ones in the intro scene with the aircraft)? I got used to the shader stuttering, the smoothness that comes after pays off :-)

Looks like 'Desperados: Wanted Dead or Alive' may be coming to Linux

This brings memories.....

I remember when I was a kid my parents used to buy me those cereal boxes which included a CD, this game was one of them, it was labeled as a "mini-game" rather than a demo. About a year later I got the full game which I've had a lot of fun with.

I'd be happy to pay for a remastered version with Linux support.

Q: Is there any data you'd be willing to share about the number of players that are running Linux?

Few thousands :) Not many.
Few thousands is quiet big in my penguin book, I tried this game a few years ago on Linux and it was already pretty impressive back then. Might give it another try.

Thanks Liam and Gaijin.

I find it a bit illogical how it's out of beta but still early access :-)

I hope the Linux version will also be on GOG, I love these type of games.

This is one of my most sought after titles this year, that art style is just too good.

I think Stardock are on the right path, slow but getting there, the fact that Vulkan is on their tongue rather than DX11/12 is a good sign. Having a Cross-Platform foundation makes it easier in the long run.

Too bad about Mac, it could have been a great gaming platform if Apple didn't ruin it, many games were even ported over long before Linux became popular. Maybe there's hope with MoltenVK yet?
