<value name="UseVulkan" type="integer">1</value>

It requires knowing the command for activating tester permissions. I wouldn't bother though, as it's quite unstable when it's active.

do you have this command? i would like to try vulkan in this game

Quoting: mylkai read that, but does it still work on modern PC? and i think i cant buy it anywhere. an updated steam version would be nice
Probably true. I don't see why it shouldn't work any more. Got Railroad Tycoon II running lately again as well. It may be more tricky but should be possible. Afair it uses SDL too. The usual problems are required glib compat lib and probably some X11 compat lib nowadays.

I tried this last in 2008 and wrote this Wiki entry for linuxgaming.de

…also RuneSoft still exists. Mayhap they have some patch somewhere hidden :)
Edith says: Well it still lists Linux but only a patch for OSX Lion: http://www.rune-soft.com/Games/Released/Game-239/game=Robin_Hood_The_Legend_of_Sherwood-13

desperados also worked on win7 and above, but the performance was crap and there are old games, that just dont work on modern OS.
even if it works, i think i couldnt buy it anymore and i dont think there are resolutions for 1920x1080, so the game needs a patch.

und wie du selbst schreibst
"Das Spiel selbst ist leider, wie zahlreichen Berichten aus dem Netz zu entnehmen, ziemlich schlecht portiert. Viele Fehler werfen einen immer wieder auf den Desktop zurück. Ärgerlich, wenn die Fehler dabei auch in die Speicherstände geschrieben wurden und das Spiel nach dem Neustart sofort wieder stirbt."

The Steam Linux market share for June was 0.52% as Steam is still growing rather rapidly

since google is now "Platinum Member of The Linux Foundation", supports VULKAN and also planing a console do you think it is going to be a linux based console? like the steam machine?

google also wanna buy some game developers maybe for exclusive titles. thats what the steam machine doesnt have, but you need exclusive titles to get market share
