Lutris game launcher has a huge new Beta update out for testing
21 Oct 2020 at 6:10 am UTC

Quoting: dpanterSimple, I do not want forced automatic syncing.
Good, like I said before, you don't have to give your different games providers credentials to Lutris and just continue to add manually games or install them by scripts installers from Lutris Website.

Quoting: dpanter
Quoting: Liam DaweThere should be nothing stopping you manually adding games as normal
I'm not expecting anything else in that regard. My concern regards automatic syncing of game libraries from Humble/GOG/Steam etc. without my consent. The wording in the article suggests a higher level of automation than previous Lutris versions.
If you do not give your GOG/Steam/Humble credentials to Lutris, it will not sync.
Major advantage to sync: Lutris will download directly game from provider when you will launch a script installer.

Ultimate Doom and Doom II updated Unity version finally works with this new proton version.
But still do not play intro movies, you have to press space bar 4 times to access the game.
Some gamers reports now good results too with Red Redemption II.

I tried the first game and I found it very difficult.

Play more classics including one from 1976 with a new ScummVM release

Quoting: UnixOutlawI recently bought Blade Runner from Gog, thinking it was something "recent" (it wasn't 'recent'), anyway I downloaded the Linux version anyway, and it wouldn't run - then I figured out - "it's just a ScummvM game", so I can probably figure how to run it in ScummVM, but haven't gotten around to that yet...

Played Monkey Island 1 via ScummVM on my NTC PocketChip (single core ARM 512 RAM) a couple years back and that ran perfectly...
There is a Lutris script for that game, did you try it?

Works great, except the menu is hard to read (so small :)).
Did you try "Override GUI scaling" + "GUI scaling factor" in "Video" preferences ?
"Override Font scaling" + "Font scaling factor" could help too.

AntiMicroX, fork of the popular keyboard to gamepad mapping app has a new release
10 Sep 2020 at 10:23 pm UTC

Very good news, I use Antimicro for a long time now with old games and it is a very useful tool for Linux gamers.
Happy to see new coders continue to maintain it.

Quoting: TheLinuxPlebDoes anyone know that can it do numpad buttons? In Tomb Raider i had a problem where i would have needed to use numpad button to do stuff. It could be that there could be other old games that would benefit from having the numpad there

That would be a great addition to it, i think.
I wrote Antimicro config profiles for Tomb Raider I, you could find them on my Github account:

It could help you.
