DREAMM emulator for classic LucasArts games v2.1 out with Linux support

Does this do any enhancement? Because I can confirm that the Steam version of Star Wars: Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II already runs great on Steam Deck (only the menu's are 2 fps for some reason)

Maybe there's an error in the Pop!_OS data. It is 2.97% of Linux users and gained 2.97%, meaning it was 0% previous month.. Does not seem correct to me.

I would like to play MGS1 on a very low resolution with pixelated textures as it was on the PSX. I prefer that style over the more smooth graphics of the PC version.

What I got from reading the replies to legluondunet's post: Apparently, playing roms needs to be justified. So, that kinda proofed his point about it being unethical.

Could you try this and update once you got the dongle situation sorted out?

Thanks
Article updated. Works without issues with their adapter.
I understand that it works, but would it be a viable option to do actual typing work in for a couple of hours? Could it replace a 27 inch monitor for that purpose?

VSCode should run all fine as far as I know?!? (Though personally I hate it! :D )
Try getting intellisense to work. It requires the exact correct combination of software versions for Unity, VSCode, Dotnet, Mono and the C# plugin for VSCode. So don't even think about updating any of these, once you get it to work. And also expect random Unity crashes.

Game dev takes a lot of time, so I hate it when the environment I work in is wasting it.

Halo: The Master Chief Collection gets Steam Deck support

So, do I understand it correctly that co-op with Linux + Windows still isn't working? (Even when EAC is disabled on all PCs)

The Humble Heroines Bundle is an awesome deal for Steam Deck and Linux Desktop

@stormtux, Valve does _not_ get a cut for what is sold on Humble. As a developer you are allowed to give away as much keys as you want. So, you request like 5000 keys for Humble. Steam generates a key list for you, and that's uploaded to Humble.

Valve does have to approve all the key requests, but in my experience that's only to avoid scams.
