good port 1080p, ultra: 70-140 FPS
AMD FX 8320@4,2ghz, GTX 970
SSR with 60FPS capture kills about 40% perf though

GOG Have Supported Linux For Just Over A Year, Announce New Linux Installer System
12 Aug 2015 at 9:17 pm UTC
i meant it doesnt work out of box :)
its always tweakable ofc
12 Aug 2015 at 9:17 pm UTC
Quoting: Guestit is working ofc.Quoting: Xpanderinstallers are great imo, but the support for different distros is still a miss.Does LD_LIBRARY_PATH not work?
for example flatout 2 doesnt have sound because their compiled wine searches for wrong locations for 32bit libs

Quoting: tuubiim born in 80's so i'm probably not that young.. And you are right i might have heard some of their tracks without knowing the band itself.. i dont remember seeing tv adds nor do i listen normal radio stations... so im completely cut out from the "popular" songs or whatnot.. i just listen internet radios and back in the times, CD's, vinyls from my music genre artists. so yeah :DQuoting: Xpanderfirst time i hear about motörhead.o.O
I guess this is quite plausible if you don't live in the western world, but otherwise I have a hard time believing you've managed to avoid their "Ace of Spades". It's been all over radio, tv show soundtracks and ads, games and movies for literally decades. Hell, one of the most awesome 2D brawlers of the early nineties (on the Amiga at least) was all about Motörhead and starred good old Lemmy smashing baddies with a guitar. But I guess it's entirely possible you've heard their songs but never heard of the band, especially if you're younger.

galaxy would be better though

The State Of Unity On Linux
12 Jul 2015 at 4:03 pm UTC
12 Jul 2015 at 4:03 pm UTC
unity5 is performing pretty good imo.. ofc it could be better,but its decent enough already.
for example when Rust went from unity 4.6 to 5 the performance boost was almost 2x + also the visuals got upgraded a lot
Rust actually runs 60+ fps on all highest settings most of the time.. except when lots of buildings nearby.. and it looks pretty good also
same thing happened with Beasts of Prey... nearly 2x perf boost (this game seem to be abandoned now though)
this high perf boost with unity5 might come with the thing that im on AMD CPU.. which is known to suck at singlecore performance and unity4.x games all used only 1 core, while unity5 games use 2 or more cores.

Having FPS Problems In ARK: Survival Evolved? Try This Simple Fix
6 Jul 2015 at 8:49 pm UTC
6 Jul 2015 at 8:49 pm UTC
this is epic "fix" indeed ... had 15fps in some places before (when looking to the middle of the map or that big ARK building) ..after setting View Distance to Epic its 35Fps ... game now mostly runs between 45-70 fps with everything on Epic, except motion blur disabled and shadows on medium.
Great times :D
edit: just in case, my hardware if anyone interested
AMD FX-8320 @ 4,2ghz, ASUS GTX 970 STRIX, 16GB DDR3 1866mhz, Arch Linux x86_64, MATE Destkop, nvidia drivers 352.21, Game is on SSD (had missing texture issues on HDD because it couldnt keep up and loading times went from 2 min to 20 sec + loading new landscapes takes just small fps drop, it froze for few seconds when ran from HDD)
