Quoting: TheBossIs the DLC working for anyone else? I only seem to have the soundtrack in my DLC list on Steam.

Turns out it works fine, DLC just doesn't show in the Steam list.

So, I turned off my second smaller monitor, Payday 2 now detects 4K resolution. Turned smaller monitor back on, still fine.

Looks like they have some issues to sort, but it was a simple enough solution for now.

Trying to mess with the settings.

The multi-monitor support is a bit pants.

It displays on the 4K monitor I have in a tiny 1080p section of the screen, the rest is black. No option to go higher than 1920x1080 resolution.

I really don't get DLC hate. It's how developers are able to keep games going for so long. Most games have DLC now and the GOTY edition is cheap.

Will livestream when i have eaten and got to grips with it.

The Linux content isn't actually linked to any CD Keys, so we won't get anything until they fix it.

Stardew Valley developer says Linux is a top priority, woohoo

Quoting: Mountain Man"Mac/Linux ports are one of my top priorities. I will start looking into it seriously very soon, I promise."

Translation: "Mac/Linux ports aren't my top priority, and I haven't even started looking into it. I make no promises."

If your game isn't coded from the very beginning with Linux and Mac support in mind then it's obviously not a top priority.
Well we should never put too much hope in promises, as too many times they end up not working out.

It doesn't mean it's not a top priority now. As a developer who works on the code behind GOL myself, I have a big list of things to do. Some things have to get done first, so I sympathise a bit especially being one guy like this developer.
