There's another (better) workaround for the Unity graphical glitches with NVIDIA on Linux
21 Dec 2018 at 1:36 am UTC

Quoting: dannielloSo Linux native game issues support in short:
Unity knows about issue from months. nVidia knows about issue from months. Developers know about this issue (and others like keyboards problems) from months. So what? Nothing. Deal with it.

You know what is funny? When I manually force start Windows win32 version of the game - no issues at all - no graphic glitches, no keyboard issues, no functional issues (at least these games that I tested).

I asked politely one of developers of very broken Linux port (Istanbul: Digital Edition) if they cannot support Linux - maybe they should remove it, because Windows version of the game is working great via Steam Proton. As an answer I received free code for Android version...

PS. Valve also knows about very poor Linux ports from months. Who cares? Publisher/developer paid Valve fee so they do not care - everything is OK from their perspective. In fact Valve is very happy to add every "game" - even if it is copy/paste from some sort Unity/Unreal/other engine tutorial with free assets.
Do you know if people using AMD GPUs are also having issues?

I currently own a NVIDA, but will buy an AMD sometime in the future.
Just wondering if that would help with bugs.

I am running Ubuntu and NVIDIA card. The trees render on top of the other objects on the screen. Same for cloud/fog.

The game ran fine before this large update.
Lets give them some days/weeks to hunt the bugs.

Quoting: mylkai wonder how they have the ressources to support linux
https://steamdb.info/app/464920/graphs/ [External Link]
only a few 100 players

i am not complaining, but every time i see this, i ask myself: why can they do it and big companies dont. or why are games like RUST cancel linux support
Where did you find this 100 players information?
I opened that link and didn't find anything related to the O.S.

Exactly, is it a good idea to buy it now or wait for release? :)

Or perhaps a sale.

Is/was it a scam?

I think the screen shots looked so poor since the beginning.
Add the poor performance and bugs, seems like it was not somewhat of a serious game anyway.
