Only took them 9 years, lol. But nice that it came out DRM-free.

Who came up with the "brilliant" idea of making ray tracing required??

Original Painkiller is a classic. Is this considered a sequel or remake?

UPDATE:

Painkiller is a reimagining of the classic franchise

So a remake. Interesting.

Tried to build wine + ntsync, but those patches can't be applied on top of wine 10.4. I guess we'll have to wait until it's rebased.

I remember that for a long time on arch you needed the zen kernel for fsync? Is that not the case anymore?

I think that should be in upstream, but named as futex2.

fsync was never upstreamed, and applying fsync patches over Wine was a mess. I used esync from staging instead. So it would be nice to finally replace it with upstream ntsync.

Nice to see Valve sponsoring KDE development. Hopefully they plan it long term.

I would like to see KDE 6 on the Steam Deck.

What version does it use now? Plasma 5 is EOL for a while already.

struct native_req_assets *native_req_assets_get(struct native_info *native_info);

Since DLSS is some proprietary Nvidia blob, the question goes other way around. Is there a possibility for DLSS to support nova+nvk? I wouldn't count on it.

Not familiar with how DLSS accesses the GPU though. If it's using some standard Vulkan path - it might work. If it's not, Nvidia will have to contribute whatever is missing. Or someone else who cares to reverse engineer it.

Zink still lack va-api support

I think someone should create VA-API over Vulkan video for that.

Looks like there is some work on it:
