Quoting: Salvatos

Quoting: scaineI suspect this is a (or another) reason that Steam devices didn't really take off. Playstation and Xbox both allow Netflix, Spotify and others on their consoles. Why would you buy a SteamPC that doesn't support any of that. Pretty ridiculous.

Quoting: dubigrasuGood thing I guess.
I feared at one point that Valve deliberately ignored having Netflix/Amazon/etc apps available on their SteamOS/Steam Machines because they tried to push their own movie store.

Can't people just use the web clients on SteamOS?

I do use the web client on my SteamOS. You can use it in the "Linux Desktop mode" or just (while in the BPM) hit LB on your controller and add Netflix/ to your bookmarks. Eventually just add them as "games" on your library (old video):

But all these are workarounds and some of them not really reliable or easy to set up for the guy that buys a Steam Machine.

But now that's out the way...

Yes, same problem as (almost) always, Proton doesn't get actually updated until you do some confusing stunts with your client.
After seeing the same old DXVK version I removed entirely the Proton folder, checked/rechecked the SteamPlay settings and installed a small Windows game. Sprinkle this concoction with a couple of restarts and eventually the new version gets finally installed.
You could also recheck the integrity of whatever Windows game you have installed, or just install/reinstall latest Proton from the Steam tools menu.

Edit: Oh yeah, not saying you should do all this, just that something from the above did it.
Just to make sure you're on 3.16-7, enable the version information on the DXVK HUD.

Finally, the time has come.

What ever happened with VP lately? They used to do great ports.
Edit: Actually, now after reading some (Windows) users reports on Steam, looks like the game itself is a bit bugged by freezes and stutter. So can't be sure where is the line between a bad port or just an un-optimized game to begin with.

I think that one way or another it will bounce back. Looking at how Valve takes care of their games over time, I'm thinking that if there's a way to "fix it" Valve will find it eventually.

Quoting: GuestLooks good. But i still wait for the System Shock 1 Enhanced Edition port and i still wait for System Shock 2 Update.

There's gonna be an update for SS2?

This patch is only for the Windows and Mac version of the game right now. Linux will receive the update soon.

Impressive how after so many years they still commit fixes to the game. I wasn't expecting that.
The Linux delay is not so impressive though...

Hm, I caved in and bought Everspace. Is the type of game I'll probably never play, but I appreciate what developers did to support us.
