Alas TLJ is not quite playable yet. The "eye/mouth/hand" icons are still not showing when clicking the usable objects.
You can see in the video posted above at min 7.10 how mrdeathjr is trying to use the axe and nothing happens.
You can repeatedly click and try to slightly move the mouse at the same time and sometimes the symbols shows. After a while you can get good at it, but is a very cumbersome way to play.

Quoting: Teal

Quoting: dubigrasuI don't get that Feral radar. The "Depth charge" thing is closer than Mad Max which is supposed to be released now.
Anyway no, I won't pick up a copy unless there'a a sale.
30 Euro is terribly expensive for me, sorry.

The game has already gone below $10 on a sale and I am very confident it will do so again on the Linux release (that's how Shadow of Mordor did too).

Yes, indeed. Here's hoping for that, thank you.

Quoting: g000hThis was in my Steam collection, as part of a bundle I purchased months ago. Good that it has come to Linux, at last. I decided to give it a try for myself, and it wasn't what I'd call seamless to get it up and running.

First thing, needed to go into Enclave's properties on Steam, and activate the Beta Access. Once this is done it will install. At the end of the install, it mentions a Mono component that it can install (if you aren't using your distro's package of Mono).

After installing I had a go at firing it up, and the screen was very pixellated and too bright. I managed to go into the Video settings, and change to 3840x2160 32bit.

My Debian 8.6 Jessie (default Wine version is 1.6.2) wasn't happy launching the game, after the main menu. Needed to escape from it, and go into Steam/steamapps/common/Enclave/Game and edit the environment.cfg
Changed the VID_RENDER=Direct3D8 to VID_RENDER=OpenGL

To get the graphics behaving, after setting in the game Video menu, to my display settings, I needed to Quit out of the game, restart the operating system, launch Steam, and play Enclave again. After some more fiddling, restarting, setting brightness low, and still finding the game too bright / wrong gamma settings / and trying some things with xrandr in a terminal.

After this, I'm able to play, and it is working reasonably well (apart from the on-screen colours). Sound, music, controls - all reasonable. Completed the first section of the game "Escape the Dungeon" and ready for part 2, and BLAM... "UNRECOVERABLE ERROR ENCOUNTERED. PRESS ANY KEY TO QUIT."

And that's as far as I could get. I've tried reinstalling the game, running Linux updates, deleting the steamapps/common/Enclave folder after uninstalling, and then doing a "clean" install.

Yes, I'm not a big fan of Wine Wrapped games.

EDIT: Got past the problem.

Okay, so I went back into the environment.cfg and put back the VID_RENDER=Direct3D8

Today, it seems like the Enclave developers have sorted out the brightness issue in the game, and things are looking good now. With Direct3D8 setting, I have been able to play Part 2. I haven't observed any appreciable slow-down running as Direct3D8.

So, for me, it's working okay now.

The OpenGL backend is kinda iffy even on Windows, you were bound to have issues after changing to it.
The one issue I had with the game was that gamma bug which now has a fix (or more like a workaround) and indeed, the game runs very well.

Quoting: noinformationhereInteresting. I have this on GOG, where I think I bought it on impulse during some sale. I have never played it, so it would be great if the Linux version makes it there as well...

Well, Two Worlds (same folks, same Wine packaging) is already there, so I presume/hope this one will be too.

Tested the game on two systems (the one on the info and another one with a AMD Phenom X4 965 and a HD 7970 card using Mesa) and apart from a gamma bug that's likely to be fixed soon, the game works very well (well, a 2003 game) never going below 140 FPS.

(Wine 1.8.1 is used BTW, no CSMT)

So wait, Bundle Stars (despite mentioning Linux explicitly in their store filters) does not actually sell Linux keys? That really sucks since I did bought games from them.
Are we really sure about this?
