Quoting: SolitaryHey, man. Just playing the demo and I managed to get past the "trial ends here" barrier and I am currently playing the later levels. This isn't suppose to happen, is it? :)

You run around and a level started when you went under a cave entrance? I'm just fixed this in the v0.91. It will be public in 1-2 days. ...or you find anything else? :)

I actually found two ways to go beyond. One was underneath the Level 13 building (I went around the barrier through the water) and jumped to the lip there is under the building and it warped me into the level and once I left the level I was free. Second one is much easier, I just jumped over the stones that are around the barrier (the left side, near the glass wall behind level 3 cave).

A simple solution would likely just big a big invisible rectangle barrier.

Quoting: rcritI suppose I'd disagree that Transgaming was in any way "shady". I do agree they took a very odd path given they are now a real estate company IIRC.

Maybe shady wasn't quite the right word, but I'm not a fan of how they took Wine code before the license change and profited off it while making their changes proprietary. Obviously it wasn't the best business model, since Wine changed their license and most people moved over to Wine eventually and Transgaming moved on themselves.

Quoting: NaibI have always been a bit questionable about CodeWeavers existence primarily due to Cedega
I made use of Cedega back when I was clanning playing BF1942 as I was switching 100% to linux. They just too wine, some tweaks (game specific)

Seems understandable at the time, but they didn't feed back to WINE and equally if the game you were interested in went out of scope then it just rotted. The £££ that linux users provided for this "service" then wass used to create Cedar for OSX only....

Well, that was a completely different (and quite shady) company called TransGaming, nothing to do with CodeWeavers. CodeWeavers do give back, pretty sure the head person of Wine is literally employed by them.

Quoting: PieOrCake

Quoting: 14I welcome the refreshing look.

Another thing I would like is to wish list a game I already own so that I can get notified when to buy it for a friend. :)

^^ This. The GoG version of UT2k4 stopped working a while back, and my sons still want to play it. I already own it on Steam, but I can't wishlist it to be notified when it's on sale for them.

Our sales page has a wishlist option if that helps: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/sales
Add directly from it or from the UserCP wishlist page.

Same answer as always when I don't mention a specific game: I just list a good few interesting personal picks, the aim is not to show the entire thing, as often they would just end up as an article with a long boring list.

I'm here for the "long boring lists" :)

You will enjoy this page then https://www.gamingonlinux.com/sales/ ;)

Quoting: Hal_KadoLooks pretty cool, would love to see the events system encourage devs to do more in game unique/live events to bring some life back into games I may not otherwise have a reason to go back to. Hopefully UI updates mean some Big Picture upgrades are not far behind.

I think that's part of the point, a call to arms to say "hey we're doing this" or "we added this in" and that sort of thing by developers.
