Nvidia is one of the reasons why OpenGL turns into a horror show.

They've added so many extensions to it for their cards.

Quoting: no_information_here

Quoting: GuestFor anyone not sure about what model GPU they're running, something like the following may help:

lspci | grep VGA

(that assumes you have lspci available of course)
GLX can also query information:

glxinfo | grep Device

There are other ways as well, depending on the distro used. I'm not really up to speed on all the graphical tools available, so I encourage people to suggest alternatives.

Hmm. Not so useful in my case (Neon/Ubuntu 16.04). For "lspci | grep VGA" I get:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation Device 1c82 (rev a1)

...which probably doesn't help for this survey. For glxinfo I get nothing. In the Nvidia control panel, it tells me the card model on the "XScreen 0" tab. Your instructions may be more revealing for people running Mesa?

(I knew my card, but wanted work it out from scratch like you suggested).

Probably you are using a laptop with switchable graphics? Intel Hd and Nvidia

If you didn't set Bumblebee or Nvidia Prime probably that's why you can't see your gpu

Quoting: melkemindIt doesn't seem like they're asking for much money. Am I just overestimating how much it takes to make a game, or does S$70,000 get you a lot more in Malaysia?

It seems like it's not much to you , because your currency is much more valuable than theirs.

Even one US dollar is equal to 1.000.000 of local currency at some African countries.

That difference cause the very same reason why Iphone's or most of the electronic devices are manufactered on Asia : cheap man power

1 USD = 6,7579 Chinese Yuan

For the preview release, Vulkan support in CRYENGINE will be compatible for projects on PC, and the aim is to deploy additional Android support in future.

Quoting: Whitewolfe80for f*ck sake enough of this bad pixel shite at least make the games look like a 16 bit game instead of mess of blocks.(owlboy is retro pixels done right)

Yeah, why didn't they simply make it as pretty as Owlboy? It's just art, right? It's not like it requires real talent, skill, effort or time. I'm sure the developer appreciates and will take heed of your super constructive criticism. [/snark]

Sorry edgelord but i am sick and tired of pixel crap games there are so many and i am so over them. Yes creating a game takes talent, but i hope that creativity would lead them to look at just how many pixel barf games (broforce is a fun game but looks terrible) are available and then decide on a different art style.

If you are a Linux gamer then you gotta love this kind of games because there is not good games on the horizon as usual

Quoting: ColomboShame about the lack of depth. I am itching for some good city builder, I even wishlisted this, but considering what you wrote, I will probably wait for some sale.

Banished is what Linux lacks.

Quoting: KimyrielleI think we're used to delays of developers with little to no Linux experience underestimating the demands of cross-platform development or simply overlooking the fact that Windows-only middleware doesn't magically compile on Linux.

But Aspyr?

Really?

No , actually they're experienced with Linux and OsX. These are the devs of Layers of Fear which is available for Linux and OsX.

That was Kimyrielle's point - they are experienced, and should be able to properly plan for simultaneous release, if it's a priority for them.

Support on Unreal Engine for Linux is a mess when compared to Unity , maybe they are little underestimated this and planned like they are on Unity

Also @Comandante Ñoñardo , having a depot for a platform doesn't mean anything.

For a recent example : Everspace.

https://steamdb.info/app/396750/depots/ [External Link]

They have depots but for Linux but they delayed Linux release because of UnrealEngine 4 problems on Linux and also Nvidia driver problems on Linux.
