Quoting: robertosf92Can this happen with GIMP? Not in quite some time, I think.Don't think so either. For professional level 3D modellers/renderers there was a huge market gap. For a lot of supporting parties there is a clear benefit of having one sit in a place that was affordable to regular people and companies just starting out. This is not really the case for image manipulation where Adobe stepped in to serve that segment by itself.

Quoting: robredzThat's the normal version, not the enhanced edition. And Q2RT in Vulkan, so doesn't require any translation.Quoting: toojaysHopefully this means Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition will be playable soon. Although I only have a 2060 so maybe it's irrelevant.It plays OK on my system minus the RT and DLSS which show in options but not accessible. and DLSS should help with a 2060 once up and running. Real test will be when we see what Proton does with Q2 RTX v the native Linux version.
Quoting: mylkayou cant buy non TIMaybe to distribute their mining restricted GPUs so that they actually have a chance of delivering them to gamers?
why the F do they make a TI then?

That must also mean that the 470 driver is about to be released, which is probably the more interesting thing right now.
Quoting: toojaysHopefully this means Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition will be playable soon. Although I only have a 2060 so maybe it's irrelevant.Don't think that it has much to do with that. For that vkd3d just needs more complete DXR support than it has now.

Quoting: PinguinoAs someone who only plays single-player ETS2, I'm a bit confused. Isn't World of Trucks their multiplayer server? If memory serves me well, I remember seeing some screenshots of multiple human-driven trucks on the same map, so what am I missing?It wasn't yet. For the past couple of years it just served contracts and special events, but no multiplayer in a sense of letting people actually drive in the same world. However, it has always been the vision to make that happen once they can figure out how to practically do that.

I haven't been following ATS/ETS2 as closely lately, but I wasn't expecting this. I suppose they had to start somewhere and they have a lot of work to do before they can truly make it so that thousands can share the world. And this will work properly for Linux clients!

Quoting: Liam DaweOh and on the subscription versus buying to own argument. The Steam agreement is clear you don't own Steam games.They might write those things, but I doubt it would hold up if it was ever legally tested. At least under European consumer protection laws.

Hive Time has been an exceptionally smooth experience for me. It works on ultrawide without issues. And when I went to do my usual key rebinding, I found that it had bound both the qwerty and appropriate dvorak keys to the actions, which was a nice touch. Only had to rebind one.

Quoting: TheSHEEEPIt is really interesting to me how much work and money goes into this.I would bet on the fact that nvidia's Linux support is primarily focussed on their professional users in the graphical industry. Linux gamers do provide a nice test bed for driver support though.
This cannot all be just for the few percent of gamers using Linux.
