Good game but prone to some random crashes here and there on my Antergos machine. Not sure what's causing the occasional crash but I get no error message, the game just freezes and then quits to desktop.

Quoting: rune
Quoting: SeegrasYes, but does it run Fallout 4? ;)
Of course not, there is no DirectX 11 support yet.

I managed to play Subterrain in Wine just fine and that uses DirectX 11 (or so my terminal output says) but maybe it falls back to DX9 mode somewhere??

So is this going to be a darker version of Democracy 3?

Shadow Warrior 2, the awesome looking FPS is due out in less than two months

Quoting: amelcherI can say that I unfortunately am not currently working with FWH on SW2. I had some good talks with people at GDC, but I've been too busy to followup with them. It does seem they have engineers internally that use Linux so if they are advertising it then it should happen.
It's good that they have in-house Linux programmers but kinda bad since I personally enjoyed your Linux port of Shadow Warrior 1 :)

Kingdom Rush Frontiers is now available on Linux

Quoting: micaelbergeronI contacted GOG.com to know if they will offer the Linux version DRM-free.
Stay tuned for the update!
It's in progress is all I know atm :)

Hey, at least they have New Zealand on there and yes, it's apparently very common to leave out NZ from world maps ...

Quoting: JudasIscariot- for whatever reason no matter what I try to do, I keep building a car whose wheels will spin in different directions and so I am end up going in circles.
In [TAB] mode (I forgot what they called it), you can change spinning and steering directions.
Yeah I tried that and still ended up with a faulty car,

Also, you can't put a jack under the car once it's complete which is ...odd.

Well, I tested this build and so far I have this to say:

- there's no such thing as "suspensions" it's just "suspension" or even a "suspension assembly" when referring to a vehicle's suspension.
- for whatever reason no matter what I try to do, I keep building a car whose wheels will spin in different directions and so I am end up going in circles.

No Man's Sky has been shown to work rather well in Wine on Linux

Do you have the latest version of the game?

The Wine Development Release 1.9.17 Is Now Available

Hi folks,

Just found out that Wine 1.9.17 introduces a regression that breaks compatibility with No Man's Sky:

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41189 [External Link]

So if you want to continue playing the game and you are using a pre-compiled version from your distro, don't update to Wine 1.9.17.
