Steam: News
- It’s less of a shit show than 6.4
- Still some broken games though, including Grandia
- There’s some openXR patches in there too for good measure
- Grand Theft Horse 2 works.
- Borderlands 3 has been fixed! Thank you!
- Non-english layouts are now mainstream
- Updates for all the WINE complementary software.
- And a not too shabby list of newly playable games.
- DOS 2 has been playable with GE for a while now, so grats for getting those patches in
- Rise of the Triad is installable now.
- When was Bioshock Remastered borked?
- That was one of the first games I played when Proton became a thing.
- They seem to now be working with Fanatical directly to get keys out to everyone who got the game from there.
- I can definitely see why waking up and seeing your game gone might spook you.. Piss you off even
- Let this be a lesson about the perils of digital “ownership” for end users.
- I get why the developer would pull a move like this though. It’s not gonna win you good will, but I get it
Steam: Game Updates
- Some of these updates only matter to you if .01 seconds is at stake
- That’s where they are at trying to lower times in this one.
- No more pause buffering.
- Every unpause costs you .15 of a second
- Arrange mode lets you play the original campaign with the new content.
- Vehicular combat… 8 year old me would have been all over that!
- That thing you did in the last update that let it start on the correct monitor without jacking up the resolution.
- Yeah, you broke that.
- I look forward to the day I can unlock the mythical 15th ferp
- Completely missed the announcement back on the 14th but hey!
- Vangers in 60 FerPS and higher than 800×600 resolution.
- Just 1.
- The code for the beta is turbospiralnaa if you’d like to help the devs kick the mechos, and give the Podish bunch a good smearing.
- Still can’t figure out what’s going on.
- A much needed update for a 23 year old game. It’s old enough to have graduated college now
- “Because it’s dull you idiot, it’ll hurt more” </alanrickman>
- Players collectively have to murder 5 Meelion NPCs with a spoon, and anyone who killed over 100 will get the golden spoon #2scoopz
News:
- Nothing too sexy in this release. 3 New Khronos vulkan extensions
- Some improved power management stuff for systemd that’s useful for laptops or other machines that enter suspend states.
- They build and work in Debian land.
- That’s quite the changelog of stuff NOT relating to the new cards specifically
- Hard to find bugs when most people are flipping your GPUs for ca$h rather than using them.
- This seems more of a “godammit stop poking at our shit” concession.
- Ya know, since you have so many spare Nvidia cards laying around.
- Great for game devs who want to know if their games work in a VM with hardware acceleration.
- Well played.
- ..Fucking seriously? If they’re honest about it it’s one thing, but if it’s a shitty april fools joke, at best it’s ill conceived and at worst it’s actively harmful
- I guess now I’m waiting for april 2nd…
- Yup godot, it’s a shitty joke. Not mad, just disappointed
- Kinda sarcastically wish it was an actual thing, for all the wrong reasons.
- I am very much one of those people who just want to watch the world burn.
- Their editor works in linux now and has feature parity with the windows one
- Gotta bust out the ol’ sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libcurl.so.4 /usr/lib64/libcurl-gnutls.so.4 on fedora but it runs
- Runs out of the box in Neon, in squint-o-vision.
- Added support for Thrustmaster T300RS, FANATEC CSL Elite, FANATEC ClubSport V2/2.5 and FANATEC Podium DD1.
- The new wheels are still under development thought, so there may be some jank
