Quoting: ShmerlHopefully Wine developers can also explain to Khronos how they need to use stream output (transform feedback ) with Vulkan in vkd3d.

So far no one answered their last question here [External Link].

I never understood how that feature is present in OpenGL but not yet available in Vulkan.

Glad they're releasing this on GOG, I might even buy it as one of the official site's pre-order packs. I occasionally play Chaos Reborn (despite sucking horribly at it).

Due to the large variety of Linux versions

This excuse again, seriously? For starters bundling the libraries already solves much of the issues and if they really want to focus on a specific distro just go with Ubuntu (game will work on other distros anyway).

For the record, most distros are based on larger projects, more than a dozen of distros are based on Ubuntu, a dozen more on Arch, some others on Fedora. The picture is much smaller than they're thinking.

I took a quick look at their Kickstarter page and it seems the Mac versions will be wrapped by Codeweavers too.

I'll be continuing Pillars of Eternity 2 and occasionally switch to Everspace for a few runs.

The trailer doesn't quite cut it for me, so I took it to twitch. Looks fun and challenging sometimes, won't buy it yet but I'll keep an eye on it at the end of the month :)

So this is why the game will not get a Linux version on release. When the pre-order showed up on GOG, I searched high and low for any Linux clues.

I really dislike this idea of having to prove I want to see the game on Linux though, Mac aren't far off and they get it without question.

Regardless of all that, I guess I'll just cast my vote. I like this series and I definitely wish to play this one too.

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoCool!
How to install this on Ubuntu machines in a few clicks?

Put the 2 dll files where the game's exe is and in winecfg set the 'dxgi' and 'd3d11' overrides to "native". Done :-)

Nice review :-)

I've been playing this game lately and I'm completely sucked in by it. Took me a bit to get used to the combat and the points system, but really enjoying it, especially the exploration.

In this wine version have mp3 decoder: potentially could affect some titles with mp3 music case oblivion, fallout 3 and others?

What is the issue with Oblivion/Fallout 3? The last time I played them, they ran almost perfect, only thing I had to do is set "winegstreamer" to disabled in wineconfig as it was crashing the game.
