Deep Sky Derelicts leaves Early Access, adds Linux support

Hmm, why not just have the actions partake in real time on the screen instead of cutting to a comic strip? not sure I follow how combat works, will probably need to wait for some gameplay video.

Hmmm, so every time you attack something cards come up in place of action instead of just doing it on the screen with the characters themselves. Not sure if I like that style, seems unnecessary if your already rendering the scene with everyone on it already.

Is there anything stopping GOG Galaxy coming out for Linux with their own proton support by just either compiling it into GOG Galaxy or forking it themselves?

That would be pretty cool but its clear CDPR is not fans of Linux gamers. :(

GOG is certainly missing out on sales and I wonder how things will look in 5yrs time when the Linux Gaming Train arrives, maybe...

Looks like Galaxy in Turmoil, an exciting looking free to play shooter will come to Linux

Is the video sped up? seems like things are happening quite fast.

Looks like a sandbox halo team match type of game.

The vulkan performance is good but doesn't work with a few desktop compositors, to get vulkin working the best, I had to use compiz on my plasma5 desktop (no big issue) and set up special decorator and fullscreen conditions for dragor2 (the game class) in order to get the game running in border-less fullscreen which doesn't exist in the config.blk btw. (pick windowed).

Some people are lucky and it just works, but you do need to disable and change some stuff in the config.blk. For those interested in running it without issues refer to the warthunder linux forum!!!

We are all waiting for gaijin to fix the few outstanding bugs with the vulkan support, they are taking their time.

Valve have opened up the code for their VR 'Moondust' tech demos, also a third revision of the Knuckles controller

The controllers would still need light houses to function however? I can't see how they'd work without them or are they pure gyro/sensor controllers?

TR2013 does run and look better with DXVK, I tried it out earlier this year and that was the case. OpenGL was able to get some higher PEAK fps but had absolutely HUGE dips in performances which didn't happen when running via DXVK.

It certainly needs another update by Feral!

some games will include story tips in the end credits, like deus ex.

DXVK 0.72 is out, bringing more configuration options and game fixes

The crashes are probably mostly related to nvapi on nvidia cards, I think a fix has been figured out already other then the spoofing method, but not sure when that will be implemented.

Note disabling NVAPI dlls still results in performance issues and such...

Another glass please, Wine 3.16 is out, fixes issues in multiple games like Overwatch and Warframe

wonder if they fixed that mod organizer 2 virtual file system mounting issue... They fixed it so the program launched but forgot about the uvfs component last time I checked.
