Just ordered a new HOTAS to replace the old FF2 that I got with one of the Mechwarrior games about 20 years ago.

I also remember paying about $800 for enough RAM to be able to run MW on my old 386DX40. That bought me the awesome total of 4Mb.

God I'm old.

Here's some Darth Maul action from the outer rim mod. Force choke in the first few seconds too

Quoting: slaapliedjeAlso a Star Wars game where you can force choke the shit out of Storm Troopers and drop them off ledges. :)

Not sure about force choking but it sounds like you're looking for "Blade & Sorcery" + "The Outer Rim" mod. At this point B&S is basically just a sandbox with a bit of the ol' ultra-violence thrown in but if you like VR and the idea of working out your aggression with the aid of pointy objects, I highly recommend it. Mix in the outer rim for that star wars feel and I think you'll like it. It runs through Proton and mods are simple to install.

I'd really like to see a second "browse" button under "local files" that would take you directly to the compadata folder.

I often find myself needing to see some configuration option file and then I have to look up the ID for the game before I can start. A brows compatibility folder just seems like a natural option.

Quoting: wolfyrion...The only thing I'm missing is a VR Video Player for Linux to view stereoscopic videos.

Try Skybox through proton. Works pretty good for me.

Where is the patch, I'll try it this weekend with my new computer build and Vive Pro.

Here you go. Looks like the patched version isn't required anymore.

Quoting: 1xok

Quoting: Guest

Quoting: Thormack

Quoting: Debianeeryay! i wonder if Elite: Dangerous works now. >_> let the testing begin!

Man, Elite has been working for some months now.

I think people mean "is it working straight from the box", not requiring extra hacks to get going. Yes, I know this is Linux, but sometimes time is a factor :).

I've almost got it running with Proton. Try it the days again and report. There is still a small problem with the server login. But I hope I have already found a solution. Just got to try it out.

Which would be more than great if you could run ED under Linux on Valve's new VR headset. This is my dream. Okay, not my only one, but one dream. :)

I know it works for me on my vive using the regular ED patched version of proton. I would think it would run with the new hardware.
