Quoting: jensPeople here are sadly recently immediately on the edge as soon as the subjects Steam/Valvue or DRM are touched. (I guess I had my share in it too.) Impartial opinions aren't that easy to find anymore.

Hasn't DRM been a point of contention since... well, since it was first introduced? There's nothing recent about this, and it's easy to see why some people feel strongly about it. The basic issue is a lot like the proprietary vs free software debate. It's all about who decides what you can and cannot do with a product you've bought. If indeed you're even paying for a product and not just a license to use it.

Yes sure, the discussion is not new. It just feels to me that the discussions here on GOL about this topic are recently more often, much more heated and more .. (I'm missing a word: something like extreme, it is either 100% one side or 100% the other, nearly no in-between, at least not outspoken).

Quoting: MaelraneWow, thanks a lot for that one. Didn't know I was a fanatic until now. You opened my eyes :)

I don't think that you are a fanatic and I guess this was more a general statement than directed to you.

Edit: Wrong words.

Quoting: lucifertdarkI went from unsupported distro & supported drivers to supported on both & the crashing problem has increased in speed, going from every 5 minutes to every 2 minutes. While it works it looks amazing though.

Their support is usually excellent, especially once you are using their supported distributions and drivers. Please raise a support ticket.

I think I'm going to hold off pestering their support for the moment, after downgrading to the 390 drivers the crash has gone & I've just spent over an hour running round the Croft Manor without a single crash or hiccup with the graphics set to Medium.

Did you noticed any difference except stability between both driver versions, like something visual or performance? I'm using 390.48 without any apparent issue too. I'm wondering why Feral states the beta drivers is the minimum requirement.

Quoting: GuestEDIT : all this post is pointless. The real reason is VSYNC is forced when forcing compo pipeline. Disabling it but enabling VSYNC leads to the same result !

I have both options off and just let g-sync do the work, butter-smooth and no tearing at all...

Purchased this one on the Feral site (despite the Steam discount) and played the first chapter. Runs and feels beautiful with everything maxed out. Very impressive, thanks a lot!

I'm still using the 390.48 Nvidia driver, without any issues it seems. I wonder what is different with the newer beta driver? Is it just performance and stability, or does something visually changes?

Quoting: Comandante ÑoñardoLinux and Mac versions of Windows games must have a different store page and a different price when the Linux/Mac publisher is different than the windows publisher.

I wouldn't mind different pricing, but having separate store pages would only make things utterly confusing for the average user that isn't interested in the politics of publishing.

Anyway, great day tomorrow! Hope that the nvidia driver will come out of beta soon...

Quoting: EhvisI wonder why they chose to stream the Linux version when Mac version is releasing two days later.

Probably because Linux gaming is much more popular than macOS.

With supporting Linux one can earn a lot of love, by supporting Mac one can earn a lot of money :)

Anyway, this will be my gaming highlight this year, waiting just a few more weeks wont make any difference.

Quoting: jensDoes VR works for X-Plane on Linux?

Apologies for feeding this Off Topic but a quick googling suggest it should not yet.

https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/140814-linux-vr-almost-working/ [External Link]

Link is from February 2018.

And an older link with additional info:

https://developer.x-plane.com/2017/12/x-plane-public-vr-preview-released/ [External Link]

:)

yeah, I did a search and found that first link, though wasn't sure if this was the latest status of affairs ;).

Quoting: mike44Not yet, they told to support Steamvr also on Linux, once they've moved to Vulkan later this year. That's also the reason I didn't yet buy a VR headset.

Thanks!

Quoting: mike44I wonder if it supports VR? I want to buy either a Samsung Odyssey or a HTC Vive Pro foremost for X-Plane. Later on Alien Isolation etc. should be huge fun also in VR.
While I don't have lots of games, I'll get this one.

Does VR works for X-Plane on Linux?
