Want to compare your Steam library with Wine compatibility? There's a script for that

It would be nice if it also gave you a percentage of performance vs native windows.

Yes, I keep forgetting your not like the chap over at Phoronix, not much spare hardware laying around no doubt. That fella has a server basement full of sleeping hardware waiting around for a benchmark to happen once a month :)

Ok, well for 2-3 players on the server I'd thought a Dual Core CPU would be enough, but I guess you still have all these dinos running around being simulated in a stupid fashion.

Probably a good thing, honestly this developer should really get Vulkan out to all platforms so they can at least deal with the performance issues, in particular Linux is really chugging with its OGL build, and is particularly bad at 1440-2160p resolutions (you know the future since we aren't all at 1080p still).

Also can't you just host the server yourself or MUST you pay for a server?

Quoting: ShmerlWill it help Star Citizen, or Lumberyard is now independent from Cry Engine?
It should, there is nothing stopping them from pulling in Vulkan support from CryEngine, infact Chris said in the past they were waiting for the Cry team to do it.

Quoting: mrdeathjrIn my case works stable (tested with wine 2.10) and dont have this bug (possible gallium bug)
I tried without G9, could be a FuryX amdgpu related issue. I haven't done more testing about it. Also I see your running NVIDIA card, so yeah big difference.

Last game I played in wine was dragons dogma, it worked best with G9 drivers but there was a issue with the shadows causing aliased white outlining when they overlapped (which flickered). May not sound that bad but the game has LOTS of trees and bushes with overlapping shadows so the artifact ended up everywhere and was annoying as heck.

work and work flawlessly are two different things. I'm able to get most dx9 games working also but very often you come up against less then ideal performance situations or weird graphical glitches that can't be resolved such as flickering shadows or other effects.

Nice, will definitely get it once it does hit Linux .

Cyberpunk horror game 'Observer' from Bloober Team & Aspyr Media will likely see a delayed Linux release

Another developer being silent about exactly the issues they are facing with Linux (like specific not generalizations). The only way to get a solution is to be vocal about the problem. Too many would-be Linux port developers have gone away silently instead of reaching out.
