Quoting: ExpalphalogSo I am glad to hear that the new one might actually be accessible.

...For now. Once Paradox releases it's first 10 DLC's, it wouldn't be anymore. :).

On the topic of CKII, it was hard to get in. Took me maybe 50 hours to get acquainted to the game (more or less). But in the end, CKII became my first game that hit 1000 hours on Steam. :).

Quoting: chimpyNot completely relevant to the article, but does anyone know how to install a non Steam DLC to a Steam Proton game? Specifically Mass Effect; Steam doesn't have any of the DLC available but they are available for free as executibles on the EA site. Tried to install by adding it like you'd add a non Steam game to Steam, but when it looks for where Mass Effect is installed it can't find it.

Hello.

It proved to be quite simple - you just need to replace MassEffect.exe (make backup copy) from SteamLibrary/steamapps/common/Mass Effect/Binaries with your DLC executeble, renamed as MassEffect.exe. Then start the game from Steam. It will launch installation in the game wine prefix. Do it for both DLC, then replace MassEffect.exe back from backup.

Hope this helps.

Bought Stoneshard this weekend and played a bit. Looks like a good game so far, or at least would be after it leaves Early Access.

Also in the last month spend notable amount of time in:
-Neverwinter Nights 1 [External Link] - a classical crpg.
-Majesty Gold HD [External Link] - a real-time strategy "with indirect control".
-Civilization VI [External Link] - a famous turn-based strategy.
-Magic: The Gathering Arena [External Link] - em, a "digital collectible online card game", I think.
-King's Bounty: Crossworlds [External Link] - a tactical RPG, with HoMM-like battles (well, the first King's Bounty was a forerunner of first HoMM...).

Quoting: SpirimintI will give him a try in the evening how far i come. I really wanna play this game :D
Maybe it's like everything with Linux, once you try it and figure it out, you see it's not that hard.

Good luck with it, good motivation is one of the most important parts... :).

Quoting: SpirimintSo we have to build it by our own?

Until a new actual release build of Proton GE is out, yes.

Oh well, looks like we have to wait...

If you can do it - sure, it's the quickest way.

The alternative is to wait unknown time before (or if) they release a compiled version. They did it for the previous version (Proton-4.19-GE-1), but it vanished, and IDK if they are doing it for every release, or how much time does it take...

Quoting: SpirimintAh so i figured out you need the newest Version of Proton GE.. But when i download the file its just 40 mb big. Even the Version before is just 40 mb. Hm what i do wrong?

40 mb file you downloaded is a source code you need to compile yourself, AFAIK. Where to get an already compiled (latest) version is a question I want the answer to, myself.

I mean, even the download link from the GOL article two weeks ago no longer work. And the "latest release [External Link]" link from github leads to version Proton-4.15-GE-1, witch can be downloaded, but very old...

Quoting: TriasBy the way, is it known what porting studio are they using?

My guess was they're doing it themselves?

From the article - "Thankfully, they did pull in a porting studio to handle it, so the end result should be a Linux version that's tested working well—hopefully anyway."

Looks like external porting studio to me. I'm wondering witch one...

So both Underworld Ascendant [External Link] and The Bard's Tale IV [External Link] planing to release linux version this month... Assuming both will be good (after all patches they already received), I might be short of time in next few weeks. :).

By the way, is it known what porting studio are they using?
