Quoting: uriilWhere can I find a video of it running on Linux?
I'm in the process of doing one right now.

Looks like the open source Vulkan driver 'radv' for AMD conforms nicely

Quoting: STiAT
Quoting: JajcusPlease note that not every 'Not supported' means that anything is missing. A Vulkan driver needs only to support what is in the hardware (e.g. only the supported image formats) and only what makes sense for the platform (I don't think that 'win32' extensions would ever be supported in radvd).

'Failed: 0' is the most important part of the conformance tests results.
Indeed, it would be interesting what's actually "not implemented" and what "won't be implemented". Actually, that games already run using radv is a sign that it probably isn't that far from completion.
radv doesn't currently have tessellation support, so that's a big thing missing a lot of games need.

Quoting: saildataReason to take a late lunch :) if it's the Raft from itch then your source is correct -- probably a top 5 Linux game on itch IMO.
Isn't Raft the game where the developers have stopped any future Linux updates: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/articles/the-interesting-survival-game-raft-has-dropped-linux-support.8966 or have they changed their minds? As looking at itch.io Raft is behind a version for Linux atm.

Quoting: Crazy PenguinQuestions are: Will it count for Linux if I buy it from Humble? Will Feral get the money?
Yes.

@Arehandoro seems you don't even understand what you're quoting. I was talking about people always asking if a game will be released with a sale and/or people saying they will only buy it on sale.

Edit: This is again a case of people clearly not understanding that article it was quoted from :)

Man O' War: Corsair - Warhammer Naval Battles is still coming to Linux, seems pretty certain

Quoting: lucifertdarkDon't want to put a downer on this but what OS does the Steam box they were using have installed? I seem to remember most are Windows based & not acutally SteamOS.
My question was specifically about Linux/SteamOS, I highly doubt they glossed over that fact, considering it's already available for Windows.

Quoting: miro@edddeduck_feral

then how come that just PC or at least "Linux" or specifically steamOS is not listed in that update? Does SE care that less or what is it?
I can't speak for anyone but myself here, but the original news post is from a completely different team, they don't speak for Feral. Feral tend to announce everything they're doing themselves, since they develop and publish their Linux ports directly.

Quoting: miroI noticed the elusive targets, it's just that from a dev-view I think there are things like these targets that can be added without modifications to the app itself, like a plugin or simple additional files in some elusive-targets-directory.
You're making a lot of assumptions about code you know nothing about, it's likely nothing close to being simple like you imagine. You have no idea what they're changing and Feral have to keep up with the work done on it, and so far have done.

I really don't get all the doom and gloom.
