Fascinating. Do you have WarThunder installed standalone, or via Steam? I've got it installed via Steam and never had this issue on Kubuntu 20.04 and 22.04, and previously on Peppermint 8.

Quoting: d10sfanThat's a shame, for that game probably means a ton more dlc like what happened to prison architect

Yeah. Paradox games get great support but a flurry of DLC I can never keep up with

Quoting: StoneColdSpiderAwesome news..... I use ProtonDB a lot when looking at games to buy in the Steam Sales.........

In a future update I would like to see a system to lessen the weight of really old reports........ when a game came out and it was borked but is now working fine the out of date bork reports still seem to bring the overall rating down...... Sometimes even to bronze levels........ This makes it really hard when using ProtonDB as you really have to open up the games page and look at the actual reports as you cant really trust the "rating" the game has on face value...........

For example...... Look at WRC 8 FIA World Rally Championship..... [External Link]
It works great now at least on my system..... But 2 and 3 years ago it didnt seem to work at all...... And those now out of date borked reports seem to still weigh the overall rating down to "Silver".........

That's an interesting idea, but they'd have to weight it by hardware variety. So if there was an Nvidia driver report of borked and an amdvlk report of platinum, that should probably average to silver. If there is a newer report saying it's now silver on Nvidia, it might bump it up to Gold.

Do you have a creator tag with Epic Games, Liam? Apparently they might have some kind of affiliate program https://sac.epicgames.com/en-US/overview [External Link]

I played AoE III quite a bit. Can't find the base game installation CD these days... My favourite nation was Portugal, for their organ light cannons

Quoting: MinuxOh my. Does this mean we might be able to change it for the close-sourced version soon?

If that's the case, it's not just exciting. It's finally a freaking game changer (literally hahaha). I didn't think this would go as fast. :)

Do you know if it's already possible to try it?

You don't yet get a usable OpenGL driver when using open source drivers on an Nvidia card. That's what Zink compatibility will be necessary for.

The Bass fishing giveaway is a very well structured newsletter sign-up. It seems like they should get good newsletter signup conversions from it. You need to give them an email address, wait a week and verify you can receive emails on the address. Similar to GOG giveaways, but there I just re-disable the newsletter

I didn't realize this game was still in development! I remember seeing it years ago

Quoting: GuestThen go and push UWP again and so long WINE/Proton/Steam Deck (Unless that executable situation isn't as hopeless as everything I've read before).

I don't have a good memory for acronyms; what's a UWP?

Universal Windows Platform - Windows store applications are UWP. Basically a different SDK. They've allowed some non-UWP applications into the store since, but UWP apps don't run on Wine since there is nowhere to download them from
