Have completed it on my OpenSUSE system, however I did have a repeated crash very early on in the game. Managed to spam-save my way through it!

Mad Max released for Linux, port report and review available
20 Oct 2016 at 11:57 pm UTC

I'm sorry to say, but this didn't help. Is there any possibility to get an error log or something like that?

Some system information:
KDE Plasma 5.8
i7-3960x
GTX 980 Ti (370.28)
Kernel 4.8 (also tried 4.7)

thanks for your effort :)
I have been having a problem with the latest Plasma desktop and Mad Max (and DoW2) as well. There seems to be an incompatibility with kwin and the game. If you log into a different desktop session, the game should run.

'Enclave', the 2003 action RPG now has a Linux beta that uses Wine
9 Oct 2016 at 10:16 pm UTC

I've been having some weird issues with the game running way too fast!

The text scrolls by very quickly during the video just before the prison scene, but the audio runs at normal speed. Once my character appears in the prison, he jerks around erratically and any key I press results in him running into a wall...

Anyone else had this?

I played the book (and many of the series) back in the '80s. It was great fun :-)

Rogue Stormers from the Giana Sisters developers is now on Linux, an action heavy platformer
12 Sep 2016 at 11:05 pm UTC

I can report that with some help from the game devs, I can now start the game from the command line! However it still doesn't launch from the Steam application.

Is anyone else having this problem?

The game, however, is great fun and the controls are very responsive.
