Quoting: LeopardForcing devs to priotirize one platform to another: Android or Ios.

To put it in more concrete terms. To tax developers in order to discourage them from making cross platform releases. Supporting lock-in creates a tax, since it costs money, time and resources to break out of it.

Quoting: johndoeI also use Debian and XFS for all my games > this works.
My root is EXT4 and steam game-library is mounted under /mnt/games on XFS.

To hit this bug, your XFS partition should be around 1.5 TB or more. How big is yours?

Also, in this case it's failing with saving in something under $HOME, since actual game loads fine.

Quoting: tpauAccording to the Company this is not possible due to 32bit lib dependencies

That's not what they said last time:

QuoteWe've always used the 32bit build to develop the game and Unity has some weird differences when switching to 64bit. The risk is way too high to switch. E.g., in the past, switching cause certain physic-components to behave differently. As the gameplay has to be "pixel perfect" we made the decision to stay with 32 bit, which generally was much more stable when we made the decision.

They really should fix this mess, especially if it's still broken on 64-bit systems because they didn't build it with LFS.

Quoting: SkipperroI've tested it and... WOW!

Somehow no one can answer this. Can you check please, is the update 64-bit or not?

That's what I see for my current GOG version:

file 'Shadow Tactics'
Shadow Tactics: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.2, for GNU/Linux 2.6.24, BuildID[sha1]=8a178e29a711fa53a4b8b04236b6e40dd406b910, stripped

Quoting: Avehicle7887Liam can you please check if they included a 64bit exec with this? Last I recall the game was 32bit only.

Yeah, 64-bit version would be very welcome. Before developers said they had no interest in doing it, because it required a lot reworking for them.

It never worked for me properly (doesn't save anything), which I suspect is an infamous lack of LFS bug that hits XFS filesystems because the game is 32-bit. I was a bit lazy reporting it to developers, though I should do it really.

Quoting: strycoreI've noticed some improvements in The Witcher 3, specifically the part where the Botchling appears. It was previously invisible but is now rendered.

That's the case with upstream Wine master already.

Most of them never come out DRM-free though, so yeah there seem to be many, but far from enough to actually play them :)

Quoting: TraversyWait, isn't CSMT still exclusive to Wine staging?

Certain hackish implementation of CSMT is. Wine master contains CSMT that's upstreamed, but it has less features so far.

Quoting: tpauWe need more than simply rebasing the existing patches though. Lots of fixmes need fresh patches too ;)

That's the point. We don't know how the fork will be handled. I'd prefer actual Wine developers to rework and upstream the patches when possible.
