Beep boop the Feral Interactive port radar has a UFO sighting for a new Linux port

Paradise Lost > Eden > Planet Eden : Heavy Metal: F.A.K.K. 2 ;-)

Well going down that route: there are some heaven/hell themes in
Bayonetta and NieR:Automata as well which would both be great.

But statistics point towards TW:Warhammer 2 however that may explain the hints ...

Endless Legend and Endless Space 2 at least do run well in wine multiplayer included - though the later does not show movies (including the background.mp4 of some menues - it' black instead ;-)) definitely worth getting into it. not sure about the fist two titles though.

Quoting: ArehandoroYeah, that work's although missing out on the story isn't a big let down :/

I'm also running on 390.42, will wait to 390.48 and see what happens.
390.48 does not change it for me
But it's only the 5 short "movie" cutscenes you miss out on with -skipmovies and someone was nice enough to put them on youtube it seems.

Quoting: AnzaI have vague memory that there was a fix that involved modifying OpenAL configuration file. I found this configuration file from my disk:

.alsoftrc

And contents are following:

drivers=alsa,pulse,oss

Those settings might help or not. That's order in which audio drivers are tried. What driver works best might depend on your setup.

I think that configuration came from Virtual Programming GitHub, but as that's no longer public, I can't really check the original source.
Interesting!
Will keep it in mind in case I ever get the itch for another playthrough.
Hope your finding helps people enjoying their first run!

Definitely a nice game.
In case someone is having problems with stuttering starting on the menu screen: for some reason loading into a game closing it completely and then and starting it a second time always fixed it for me.

It's time to bug Feral Interactive about future port requests once again

NieR:Automata because it is a high quality game with some original ideas unlike most run-of-the-mill AAA games these days.

Endless Space 2 because I like good 4x games and this one is actually pretty :D (same is true for Endless Legend by the way)

Elex We are sadly missing a Gothic 1/Risen 1 style game on Linux so far
