hope VKD3D can get RTX DXR support down the line. Maybe even DLSS2.0 also?

Cities: Skylines - Sunset Harbor is out now, plus a 'Modern Japan' creator pack and a Radio Station

The massive and expensive collection of DLC will probably forever stop me from buying this, and it be nice if they released on GOG.

The bundle edition is $151a for me, can't really justify that. And you never know which DLC you'll like until you buy them..

Is this the game where you could end up being banned if you kill a moderator or developer? (you'll know you did after you get kicked or banned) not sure if this was the same game?

AMD's OGL driver under Linux is pretty decent (not quite as good as NVIDIA's but close), but their OGL driver under Windows is still using old trash code. IF AMD ever decides to open-source their windows driver, they can port over the Linux OGL code and get a immediate benefit.

I'm not sure why its hard to open-source drivers under windows, maybe Microsoft says no?

Bethesda probably actively went to ID studios and tossed out the window any Linux machines they saw.

Half-Life: Alyx support for Linux aiming to arrive with Vulkan support post-release
19 Mar 2020 at 2:17 am UTC

I have a Quest now but I will wait until Vulkan and Linux updates appear before jumping on this one.
Plus the AUD is crashing through the floor atm so that means minimal buying stuff for some time (allot of stores are operating on USD to AUD conversion systems which is NASTY).

Still waiting for several comfort add-ons to arrive as the Quest is probably one of the heaviest headsets out there, I really hope Quest v2 puts some of that weight on your head (clip on compute unit & battery?). Its kinda crazy.

PS. The Valve Index package comes to over $2000AUD here, the Quest only cost me $650AUD + accessories!!!!!! Valve just aren't interested in the Aussie market (many companies avoid us, especially now).

It will be interesting to see if DXR or RTX support will appear in WINE/Proton sometime. Wonder what the performance hit would be?

vkBasalt the Vulkan post processing layer for Linux has a new release up
17 Mar 2020 at 8:12 am UTC

I don't think its possible on OGL? unless OGL gets ported to Vulkan and you run your OGL games via a vulkan wrapper.. I dunno what I'm saying now.
