We need Vulkan to getting adopted by big devs as soon as possible.

We must face the fact, the gamers are more interested with big AAA products.

Which is pretty normal.

And one thing to this closed platform vs open platform thing.

Gamers simply don't care it.They are just looking for ultimate gaming.Open or closed,they simply don't care.

So with much more AAA(even a Witcher 3 will be spectecular) products and with much more multiplayer games(which is great in Linux,Cs:Go,Rocket League,Dota 2;but i personally saw that many of casual gamers are just wanted to move on Linux but the lack of League of Legends most of them just giving up from moving Linux decision)and with Vulkan performance getting similar to Directx SteamOS and Linux will accomplish their gaming goals.

Quoting: LeopardI already installed d3dx9_36,also i noted on the topic.Which,the topic owner recommended it.

I'll give it a try with 35 version
As far as I remember, d3dx9_36 doesn't help, you need d3dx9_35 specifically.
It worked,thanks :D

Did you read WineHQ page first? When playing Wine games, it's the first thing you should check.

See https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=26114 [External Link]

TL;DR: you need d3dx9_35 native override, until this bug will be fixed: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=25857 [External Link]

Quoting: LeopardGog.com should bring their old and only Windows titles to Linux by Wine porting,like Topware did

For example:The Witcher Enhanced Edition
Like they did with is Mac version. I found the omission of Linux baffling, especially in the light of the subsequent Linux version of W2.
OS X version isn't using Wine. It's eON from VP, same as with TW2. Meanwhile you just can perfectly play TW1 in Wine yourself, instead of asking GOG to wrap it for you. It's like waiting for peeled potatoes in the store.
I couldn't run it on Mint 18.

Quoting: WorthlessBumsAlso there appears to be at least one person here who'll be mad at me regardless of what I say... :whistle:
I m not mad at you,you're free to whatever you want to say.You're free to support Linux,Mac or not.

I m mad about some naive Linux users.They're just utterly optimistic,which is insanely hilarious.

Quoting: inlinuxdude1) I'd like to thank the dev for supporting Linux and also for his thoughtful post here on GoL..

2) Is there a way to ignore people like Leopard in the comment sections. His comments really make me sick.. They are singularly unhelpful in attaining our end goals of game parity with other platforms, as well as unappreciative and ungrateful.. :(
Yeah dude,you should block me.If there is a thing like that exists

So you're not sick about these Tweets and sick from my comments.

Excellent

Is 2% good or bad? If it's bad then there's presumably things I could do to get more Linux users. If it's good, what most people here seem to be saying, then that's actually really bad because that's a strong argument against supporting Linux in my games; they'd simply never even break even.

Look at that answer...Wow.Just wow.

Come on sunshines.Enligten me up.

Come on,don't be shy.

We all know if Valve is not interested to develop SteamOS we wouldn't see so much game on Linux.Valve is simply pushing big developers and studios,because they want to compete with consoles with SteamMachines.And of course they're want to take precautions to Ms Uwp and Ms Store.

So don't waste your breath on devs like this.When Valve is succeded Linux succeded,when Valve is not Linux is not.
