Looks cool. Reminds me of Ion Fury. Hopefully they'll release it on GOG too.

Can someone explain please what does rendering backend mean for SDL? SDL has some abstraction over graphics API?

I thought it's primarily useful for abstracting stuff like WSL / windowing integration and input and such.

Nice for them to add present_mode after I proposed that :) But it appears to be buggy and needs more investigation.

Quoting: M@GOidLast time I used this it wasn't playing nice with Vulkan and Wayland. How is it behaving now?

Works fine, but I think it doesn't anticipate Wine running in Wayland mode yet judging by some X11 related errors it shows in that case. But it still works.

AV1 VAAPI support in OBS is a long awaited addition.

I tried it, but it has an annoying bug - you sometimes get half refresh rate on the monitor while game has double the framerate.

It's some subtle bug between Wine, KWin, radv (Mesa) and amdgpu (kernel). I'll revisit it once KDE Plasma 6.0 comes out, since it has a major KWin overhaul and it might be a waste of time chasing that bug before that.

Quoting: TheRiddickAND the IP goes back into The Vault for another 20years.

Someone should break into the vault 😄

Sort of ironic that a game about dealing with anti-utopian corpo politics is suffering from bad corpo decisions.

I like Deus Ex: Mankind Divided. And it did feel unfinished, so it would be a waste if they'll never make a sequel now.

Quoting: LinasWayland when?

Getting close. It's already somewhat usable, but some issues need investigating.

Quoting: satorideponI watched the presentation and didn't really understood the point of it. Apparently, the only reason this gets picked over fsync is because a few methods that are not commonly used by Windows applications, especially the modern ones, cannot be emulated with fsync/esync. But if they're not commonly used, why not just leave them working through this old RPC mechanism?

Yes, that's right. It's more of a formality, but I suppose it's driven by Wine having such formal requirement - to correctly replicate Windows behavior in upstreamed code. And it was the reason neither esync nor fsync were accepted in Wine proper.

I wasn't clear why mixing things wasn't doable either, but I suppose it had some issue.
