Nice, A Hat in Time has a Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam.
Hope this goes well for VP.

NVIDIA have now made PhysX open source
3 Dec 2018 at 2:47 pm UTC

Quoting: wvstolzingIf anyone was confused, like me, about this news, the earlier 'opening' (-not-really-though) of PhysX was this: https://developer.nvidia.com/physx-source-github [External Link] , when they made it available over github to 'registered developers'. (I don't know what the latter implies exactly.)

FWIW anyone could register there and access it. Even I have an account there and I'm no developer.

Quoting: callciferHow did you download 1.1.0? I can't seem to find a link anywhere.
Huh, I see what you mean, now it only says "Stay Tuned!" at the previous download link.
Hopefully they'll really fix it this time, bunch of people (both with AMD or Nvidia cards) complained that the Vulkan option doesn't work properly.

Wait, is this about FF for wheels or some specific devices? Because FF for my XBox controller has always worked (well, since 2014 when I bought the game) without any workarounds in ETS.

Wonder if this one works on AMD :whistle:
Both versions are working for me with Mesa, but only GL mode. In Vulkan mode the benchmark also works, but the screen is filled with red artifacts.

I do think there should be some distinction between Steam's Proton and vanilla Wine, regardless the connection between the two.
I would be interested to know how many people are ready to accept the lower-effort Proton way, but still don't wanna bother with Wine for example.

Wow, VP should really consider switching to Vulkan for their future ports.
