Now I just need to convince my org's head of security that I should be able to use Ubuntu instead of Win 10...

I wish that I enjoyed these Total War games more since I've purchased so many of them wanting to support Feral's porting. Maybe it's time revisit and give them a second chance.

This and bzflag were the first games I played on Linux. Apparently bzflag is still being developed, but looks the same as it did in the 90s. Crazy that this can run on a Raspberry Pi--it barely ran well enough to be playable on the brand new PC I had when it was released.

Quoting: fagnerlnThis reminds me that I never finished the tutorial on Driver 1... lol

I played San Francisco which is a good game, but it's boring

Holy shit, that MANDATORY tutorial was so difficult. It didn't help that there were no real instructions on how to perform the required stunts to get past the tutorial within the time limit. It got fun after that...

Quoting: slaapliedjeI was going to ask how this is different from bashtop, as they both look pretty.

Looks like it's the same person who was developing bashtop. This is a quote from their GitHub that Liam touched on:

It's a lot faster and about a third as cpu heavy and has more features, including:

• Mouse support


• Toggleable mini mode


• More customization


• Graphs for memory consumption

It's also a lot easier for me to bug fix and it's the project I'm actively working on, so please try to migrate to bpytop.

Nice! I've been using Bashtop (which is great) and this looks like it includes a bunch of improvements on it. Bashtop is arguably a better/catchier name, though. It's extremely useful to use over a terminal SSH session.

I keep forgetting to suspend my subscription and have accrued a lot of rather meh games the past few months. Going to remember to skip this month! Already have Sunless Seas and lots of the Tropico games, so I'm good.

Colorado is pretty spectacular looking and they seem to have captured it well. They're going to continue to get my money with all of these damn DLC.

When some of my friends who do not play video games at all found out that I play a truck sim, they decided it was going to be a running joke and I get soooo much grief for it. Whatever. It's probably the most relaxing game I've played.

well it'll run on Windows instances [External Link], so that's a unfortunate.

Quoting: shorbergOk... *phew* I think I got it. :happy:

Standard disclaimer applies to this, no warrenty, make sure you know what you are doing etc.

On a newly installed and fully updated Fedora 32:

sudo dnf install meson gcc-g++ cmake libcap-devel gslang-devel "pkgconfig(x11)" "pkgconfig(sdl2)" "pkgconfig(vulkan)" "pkgconfig(libinput)" "pkgconfig(xdamage)" "pkgconfig(xcomposite)" "pkgconfig(xrender" "pkgconfig(xext)" "pkgconfig(xxf86vm)" "pkgconfig(xtst)" "pkgconfig(pixman-1)" "pkgconfig(libdrm)" "pkgconfig(wayland-server)" "pkgconfig(wayland-protocols)" "pkgconfig(xkbcommon)" "pkgconfig(gbm)" "pkgconfig(libudev)"
(the quotation marks have to be like that in order to satisfy both the shell and dnf)

On a newly installed and fully updated Ubuntu 20.4 (focal)

sudo apt install build-essential git meson cmake libx11-dev libxdamage-dev libxcomposite-dev libxrender-dev libxxf86vm-dev libxtst-dev libpixman-1-dev libdrm-dev libvulkan-dev libwayland-dev wayland-protocols libinput-dev libxkbcommon-dev libcap-dev libsdl2-dev libgbm-dev glslang-tools libxcbcomposite0-dev libxcm-icccm4-dev libx11-xcb-dev libxcb-xinput-dev libsystemd-dev

Focal does not package an up-to-date version of meson so we need to install that separately from apt

$ sudo apt install python3-pip
$ pip3 install --user -I meson

Check which meson the system picks for you, if it isn't the one we just installed you probably don't have ~/.local/bin in your path, just log out and back in again and it should pick up this path per ~/.profile

$ which meson
/home/<user>/.local/bin/meson
$ meson --version
0.55.3 (or newer)

Build instructions (common)

$ git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/Plagman/gamescope
$ cd gamescope
$ mkdir build
$ meson setup build
$ cd build
$ meson compile
$ sudo meson install

Edit:
Updating works like this
$ cd gamesope
$ rm -rf build
$ git pull
$ mkdir build
$ meson setup build
$ cd build
$ meson compile
$ sudo meson install

Thanks for taking the time to put this together for internet strangers. Hopefully others see your post and it isn't buried here.

I got it up and running and it makes CS:GO (and a couple Proton titles) much better looking at 1920x1080 on my ultra wide monitor. I'm guessing it'll help people with multiple monitors even more. It's a pretty sweet tool.
