Oh fuck it's becoming a horror game.
Actually, this moment was scarier than anything in most games that try to be scary. The horror genre is 99% jump scares and "actually it's a psychological horror because muh lovecraft references between the jump scares" cope.

I trust it's because all the Linux gamers are going out and getting laid.

Aww. What a cute abomination.

I forgot how good this game is.
I could never get good at it though, and whatever skill I had is now lost, so I'm starting over (and taking damage on the first level like a chump).

Linux port, by the way. Pretty much just works.
The only issue I've seen is that scaling is broken in full-screen mode. The game's graphics are natively 1280x720, and there are three scaling options (pixel perfect, aspect ratio, and stretch to fit), but using the pixel-perfect option in full-screen makes it display in windowboxed 1707x960 rather than 1280x720. Yes, the character sprite's "pixels" in my screenshots are 3x3 and one could argue that bringing them to 4x4 by going to 720p * 4/3 = 960p thus counts as "pixel-perfect", but it's clear from the sharper UI elements and the native resolution's non-divisible-by-3 width that the game is not internally rendering at 240p, and moreover the full-screen+pixel-perfect mode's pixels don't look sharp, so no, the scaling is just broken.
It's even more broken on my 16:10 monitor, where running in full-screen mode with any scaling mode make the in-game graphics stretch vertically (which is super obvious when looking at the checkpoints which are meant to be circular); the aspect-ratio scaling option adds the expected letterboxing but only the UI actually gets un-stretched relative to the stretch-to-fit scaling.
All of this is annoyingly stupid but a non-issue for me, not only because gamescope could scale it however I like, but also because I'd prefer integer scaling and it won't do more than 1x on my 1920x1200 monitor anyway, so I don't need more than windowed mode. This might not even be a Linux port issue, by the way. Now that I've vented my frustration by complaining about it, I'm too lazy to find out if the Windows version behaves any differently. But if it is an issue in the Linux port, maybe it's fixable. The game uses SDL, and I think some other guy in a previous thread had done some SDL shenanigans to fix a native game's windowing/scaling issues.

The wall-sliding animation is pretty cool.

brotherman why are you bothering with a Pentium 4 laptop for any games?
you can install Arch or Artix, preferably with either i3 or xfce
but you can literally pick up a ThinkPad for 20-50 dollaros that has an i5 and can actually play a ton of older games pretty well, I did just that with an old X230, got it for about $30, repasted it with Thermal Grizzly, upgraded RAM to 16gb, put on a cheap 256gb SSD, installed Arch with i3 and played a shitton of old games like Stronghold Crusader, RA2, Venetica, GTA SA, Assassin's Creed, even AC2 but with lower settings, Banner Saga, Chantelise, Dark Messiah, HoMM3, etc
you can play a fuck ton of games on those machines

I have no shame, so if the game pisses me off too much, I'm just going to slow it down to get past the part that makes me want to uninstall.
It's still frustrating sometimes even at lower speed, because it's still very possible to fuck up a timing-sensitive jump if you're not used to the speed adjustment, and waiting to finish dying when you already know you've fucked up (like falling off a cliff in slow motion) is all the more tedious.

Latest xash3d-fwgs introduced ffmpeg support, so you can now play intro videos
Although for it to work you need either 32-bit ffmpeg or 64-bit xash3d

>>527521221
does that mean that i can finally play the original Fable sound and cutscenes?

>>527521616
I don't understand what you mean
If you're talking about media formats then yeah, it can play whatever you feed it. I just copied bethesda intro from morrowind which encoded in bink video and it played just fine

>>527522046
oh, i meant more in a way if this is something that will be implemented in wine/proton so that games like Fable that have issues with playing cutscenes and sound will work now

>>527522162
Main issue with those games is that they require 32-bit crap that no sane maintainer provides. Currently Wine requires lib32-gst-plugins-ugly to play some cutscenes which doesn't exists in repositories. If Wine will switch to ffmpeg then it also won't solve the problem since you would need lib32-ffmpeg which also doesn't exists (although ffmpeg provide static 32-bit linux libraries on their site).
The only solution to this is new wow64 mode that allows 32-bit windows executables to run in a pure 64-bit linux envorinment

Good luck fixing all of Enrico's mistakes.

For fuck's sake, I thought I got them all. Must have been before I installed this game.

>die because I did an "up" attack because of an accidental diagonal input, again
I wish there were a single controller in existence with a good D-pad. With every controller I've tried, it's either too easy to input diagonals by accident or impossible to input diagonals reliably. I guess I'll need to figure out which of my controllers had the latter problem and use that for this game.

Back to easy games for filthy casuals.

>inb4 none of the weirdo shit in this dream sequence is actually symbolic of anything and it's just "lol so random"

Uh oh. Did I already unlock all the locations or will it start another row?
I have no idea how long this game is, because I haven't looked at a walkthrough. On that note, the fact that I haven't needed to look at a walkthrough speaks volumes about what this game doesn't borrow from the classics that inspired it. The closest thing to "adventure game logic" so far has been putting the cassette tape in the "advanced scanner thingy" and I feel like that's just the developer either not knowing or not expecting players to believe that computers used to have actual cassette recorders for loading data and that the voice puzzle's premise had no need for what appears to be a retro-futuristic tape-reading photo scanner.

Cant say no to that price

Many such cases.

>>527548297
Oh wait. That's clearly the same room as in >>527101891. The dream scene is probably one of that dead girl's twisted paintings that I keep hearing about. So I'll concede that it already makes some sense within the story even if the details turn out to be meaningless.

It's really quite simple:
1. Play video games on GNU/Linux, or as I've recently taken to calling it, GNU plus Linux.
2. While doing so, capture screenshots or videos of what you're playing.
3. Next time you're on 4chan.org to satisfy your social media substitute addiction, upload the files obtained in step 2.
You don't even need to have played video games today. I did, but if I hadn't, I'd just post one from the archives like so.

don't play dx12 games, if they're newer unreal engine games see if you can force them to dx11. gtx 10xx and older have a hardware limitation which makes them even worse for dx12 to vulkan translation iirc.

>>527604354
Generally you don't since it's done in the drivers by Nvidia
What can you do is to enable overclocking so some utilities can use it like gamescope to use maximum clocks or GPU screen recorder to set maximum memory clocks (because for whatever fucking reason nvidia throttling memory clocks during cuda load)

>>527605045
As long as my games run at a decent frame rate, function as intended, and look good enough, I'm happy.
If it makes you feel better, I'm smart enough to not use the proprietary Nvidia drivers in the Debian repos.

>because for whatever fucking reason nvidia throttling memory clocks during cuda load
I was excited when vulkan video encoding came out because it allows doing video encoding without cuda (nvenc uses cuda internally), but the vulkan video frame layout is incompatible with the screen and the way to copy the screen to the video frame correctly is to... use cuda. Damn nvidia! vulkan video encoding on amd doesn't have this issue.

This is a bit of an obscure and retarded question but have any of you managed to get the Warhammer Beginning of the End Times mod for Medieval 2 Total War to work using Proton? I've managed to get everything working I think, but I have to use the old expansion rename trick rather because the way to launch this mod is with a batch file, and it just doesn't open when I run it. I'll settle for running it that way, but I'd like to avoid it if possible.

I'm trying to run RDR2, but for some reason the game refuses to start, saying that "Library vulkan-1.dll (which is needed by "D:\\Red Dead Redemption 2\\ffx_fsr2_api_vk_x64.dll") not found". I've tried to copy it from Wine's system32 to game's directory, but that didn't do anything, and when adding wineoverrides for it the game starts but then instantly crashes. What can I do next?

>>527677906

Aren't those already EOL and increasingly harder to find? Not to mention that 5700X3D is much cheaper, but only like 5-10% worse.

>>527677906
Cracked version?

>>527682332
Holy crap, thank you for pointing this out. To be honest, I never heard of Adventure Game Studio and hadn't even bothered to check what engine Kathy Rain uses, so I just had no idea that I had the option to run it natively. (I did see that the Director's Cut version has a Linux version available directly through Steam, but SteamDB says it uses Unity Engine.)
I was about to ask how to run Kathy Rain through a native build of AGS, but it looks like AGS is built into ScummVM — the compatibility page on the ScummVM site lists Kathy Rain as compatible — and I already have ScummVM installed. And now I see the game is even supported by GameDataPackager, so I could use that to install the game as a system package with ScummVM as a dependency. (Not that there's any real point in doing that, except for fun; I already installed Phantasmagoria and a few other games that way.)
As much as I prefer to run games natively, though, I might just finish out my first play-through in Proton for the achievements now that I've already gotten half of them, unless native AGS can be dropped in without breaking Steam integration.

>>527704231
Yikes. GameDataPackager doesn't recognize KathyRain.exe, maybe because the game was updated since support for it was added — or, more likely now that I'm looking at data/kathy-rain.yaml in the game-data-packager repo, because it expects the GOG version. It looks like all the other files match.
And here's what I don't like about GameDataPackager. No option to say "shut up and ignore the checksums", as far as I can tell.

>>527706068
Fortunately, although I don't remember how I ever figured this out, I do know how to make GameDataPackager use my own YAML with modified checksums.

>sudo rm /usr/share/games/game-data-packager/kathy-rain.yaml
I bet there's an easier way to do it, but it's not obvious, unless I just suck at reading documentation.
And with that, GameDataPackager successfully sets up the game to run with ScummVM, so it is absolutely just a checksum issue and the Steam version would be supported if someone would just add the checksums to the YAML file in the repo.
As I wrote about GameDataPackager two threads ago, I would request a change but that would require going through Debian's stupid email-based system instead of just commenting on a GitHub/GitLab repo, and I don't want to deal with it. So I will hack my way to glory with no regard for anyone else. This arcane knowledge will live and die in the 4chan archives.

>>527708295
>sudo cp --update=none ...

lol. I should update my personal notes to reflect how unsafe this is. The --update=none was to avoid clobbering any existing root-owned file, but if the file did exist, the cp command wouldn't have failed. It would have just not updated, and then the rm would have deleted the original.
It turns out this can be done without shitting in /usr/share/games/game-data-packager/ at all, but it's even more of a hack:

On the topic of ScummVM...
What the hell, I thought this happened ages ago. Must be a Mandela Effect thing. Oh wait... maybe not.
>This is particularly noteworthy, since the original version of this engine was briefly added to ScummVM over twenty years ago.
So I'm not crazy?
Interestingly, it seems this is only for versions of the game that aren't sold anywhere, because all the digital retailers listed on PCGW (Steam, GOG, and EGS) only sell the 20th Anniversary Edition, which apparently isn't supported.
>Currently, only the original DOS and Windows 3.1 versions are supported, though with sounds effects only, and not the music. Also, unfortunately, the Anniversary Editions are not yet supported.
And of course, of fucking course, My Abandonware classifies the 1991 DOS version as NOT abandonware, with a big "BUY GAME" button leading to GOG which doesn't fucking have that version (unless it's documented extra content). The Steam and GOG versions do come with the Amiga ROM as a bonus, but ScummVM doesn't say that's supported either.
Not that anyone here cares about what's legal when it comes to old games, but I find it interesting that the ScummVM team is asking for help testing, and doing so technically requires piracy for anyone who doesn't have the game on a floppy disk.
Yay, game preservation...

>>527726387
For what it's worth, the 20th Anniversary Edition itself does natively support Linux (except on EGS because Tim Sweeney is a epic megacunt). I haven't tested the Linux port, but maybe I will. GOG has a 75% discount right now. (Funny timing for an announcement of a ScummVM update that apparently doesn't support that version.)

>>527818439
Well frankly it's about time they enable it by default. Or was it already enabled by default and this just removes the switch to disable it? Either way, there's really no value in Steam Play being disabled. It once had some theoretical use as a way to filter to only native and Proton-whitelisted games, but I'm quite sure that the pre-Steam Deck whitelist was deleted years ago and that "supported titles" has had no meaning outside of a Steam Deck since then.

>https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/3462-CD4C-36BD-5767
Huh. Assuming this isn't Windows-only, will it ultimately replace MangoHud on the Steam Deck? I assume it isn't MangoHud itself, because it looks different and MangoHud isn't cross-platform as far as I know.

>game has in-game streams of other people playing, so that you could watch the game instead of playing while you're playing
has science gone too far?

Another day, another GamingOnLinux article that makes me think, "what does this have to do with Linux?"
I get it. Windows games are playable on Linux. But that doesn't mean all gaming news is Linux gaming news. Or do the patches and configuration tweaks done under GOG's "preservation" program actually tend to improve compatibility with Wine as well? That may be the case but the article doesn't say it. It just lists off the latest games that GOG claims to have "preserved" by verifying that they work (or maybe patching them to work) on the current version of Windows.
The only games here with actual Linux compatibility are the ones that run through DOSBox, and not that it matters but I'd bet you a dollar that GOG didn't actually test their configuration tweaks on these Linux releases if they even updated them at all.
Real preservation means keeping the original versions of these games available, by the way, not changing them to suit the current sloperating system, especially when you're such a prominent distributor that your updated version becomes THE version going forward and it's anyone's guess whether the original unaltered release will actually be preserved anymore. And preservation is certainly NOT (though this one isn't really GOG's fault) replacing games with remasters e.g. >>527726387 so that the original versions become accessible only through extremely sketchy means as you're not making them legally available but the semi-legitimate abandonware sites won't host them either since other versions are for sale.

>>527888084
Did they go through with adding mahjong or am I misremembering?

>>527890528
No, they scrapped mahjong, fishing and whatever dungeon-like content they were showing in early trailers. Now it basically mirrors the main menu functionality, but with korean MMO level of optimization and time-wasting dailies.

>>527892969

GOG summer sale is up.
Native games on sale:
>https://www.gog.com/en/games?systems=linux&discounted=true
If I could, I would include all DOSBox- and ScummVM-powered games in the search as well, because in theory they should work "natively" on Linux too if you don't mind doing the configuration yourself. (Scare quotes on "natively" because DOSBox is literally an emulator but that's the case on Windows as well.) I'd also include anything with third-party source ports available. Fuck, the "?systems=linux" search really is inadequate. Oh well.

>>527726387
They added another new game already — and thank fuck, one of the commercially available versions is actually supported this time, so it's not another case of the right version being scared off abandonware sites by official distribution of the wrong version — but the remaster on Steam (which I think is a mobile port) is not supported. It needs the DOS version, which is on GOG... but isn't discounted for the summer sale. lol

>>527954840
>https://www.gogdb.org/product/1207658906#prices
>goes back to full price right as the summer sale is starting
Why are publishers like this?
Well, at least the discounts are often enough and consistent enough that it won't be hard to get for that price again... unless the publisher jacks up the on-sale price specifically because ScummVM support brought a tiny bit of publicity.

can't there be a wayland fork without gnome's involvement? if everyone but gnome signs off on a protocol merge it to the fork.

There's no need for fork, sane Wayland developers could just introduced protocol, ack it themselves and then merge it upstream, that how xdg-toplevel-icon protocol was merged. Theoretically they can nack protocol but I doubt that would ever happen

>>528020428
I don't really have any interest in the "extraction shooter" genre, nor even in online gaming in general, so actually trying the new Marathon had never really crossed my mind. My only opinion about the game is that it seems really fucking weird to leverage brand recognition when deviating so far from the original source material like that, because I can't imagine there's much overlap between people who sincerely enjoy the original Marathon trilogy and those who want to play the new one, but I'm neither a CEO nor a stockholder so I guess I wouldn't know if such decisions tend to be profitable.

>can't set MangoHud width in a preset if any width is specified in the main config
>same with font size
So lines in presets.conf can't actually override lines in MangoHud.conf? That's fucking stupid.

Oh well. Behold my updated MangoHud configuration which isn't visually different on any of the presets I use for screenshots, except that I've made some executable-specific copies of the configuration file that have custom text for a program version where an automatically detected Wine/Proton version would otherwise go.
By the way, running GZDoom with MangoHud makes it crash on exit. I suppose I should be glad it doesn't crash before exit. But maybe I did something wrong when I compiled/installed MangoHud. I fucked around quite a bit in figuring out how to get mangoapp working (which of course I never actually use).

I hate this pig

I appreciate it when a story skips straight to the inevitable "okay we trust the protagonist now" part without all the bullshit. I mean, she did just see FBI get yeeted into the abyss, so naturally there's no need for 20 minutes of trying to convince her that I'm not crazy. But immediately letting me have my revolver back (and also not saying anything when I borrow that shotgun over there) is pretty based of her.

I thought I remembered the helipad fight being more intense. But the area has so many flashbangs (in addition to what I already had) that I probably could have thrown one at every enemy.
Too bad it's a solo fight, too. I was hoping (even though I had no memory of it) that Barry would assist with his own flare gun.

I forgot how fun this was

I always thought this part was pretty cool because, if you're quick enough, you can push some enemies into the high-voltage shit with a shotgun blast or a flashlight stun as soon as they appear. There's an obvious set-up for it here. But it's actually pretty easy to force them into the power lines even if they're a bit further away. It's especially easy with a flare, because they'll back away a good distance from those all on their own, but even several consecutive pistol shots can knock a shielded enemy back quite a bit. I went through this whole section without actually burning the darkness off any enemies. I suppose that's probably the intended way because it's close-quarters combat, but I think I'd killed at least some of the enemies the "normal" way in previous runs.

>mouse pointer appears on top of MangoHud overlay
Huh. That's interesting.
The only way I can get it to be visible in a screenshot is by using gnome-screenshot --include-pointer though. Flameshot (which is what my ~/scripts/named-screenshot.sh uses to capture fullscreen games because of an issue with gnome-screenshot that I've since forgotten) doesn't capture the pointer by default, and I don't seen an option to change that.

Flameshot having an upload feature freaks me out though. Thank fuck it hasn't been doing that without asking me the whole time.
Is there a screenshot tool that isn't crap like gnome-screenshot, isn't over-engineered garbage like flameshot, and doesn't require me to install another desktop environment just to use it?

What the FRICK. The only plasma 6.4 package that has changed since the 20th was plasma-workspaces and downgrading that didn't help.
There was that firmware split but I dealt with it, and cachy downgraded them to 20250508 because of some bugs anyway.

>>528472720
Thanks. I'll give it a try.
If it can seamlessly replace my script's use of flameshot then I'll probably use it instead.

>-u is for currently focused window
>-m is for multiple heads
Sounds like there's no use case for `scrot -um`. What a shame. I bet they did this on purpose.

>>528473945
I am seriously baffled. I should be getting at least 200 fps here.

>>528472720
I hope you're playing native version and not using proton

>>528472720
Thanks again. It seems to work as advertised.
A single scrot command could theoretically replace my entire screenshot script, whose main purpose was to include the game title i.e. window name in the screenshot name. The filename passed to scrot can include $W for the name of the window. However, I can already see that it doesn't give the same results as my script, which gets the window name using xdotool. If I screenshot a terminal window, then my script will name it with "anon@linux: ~" (which is what's actually shown in the title bar) and `scrot --focused --file="$W ..."` will name it with "Gnome-terminal". Similarly my script will show the tab title if I screenshot Firefox, whereas scrot will use the name "firefox".
I'll have to figure out if there's any difference for actual games. In any case, I'll probably keep using a shell script and just have it call scrot, because my script also does some unnecessary things I like, e.g. sends a notification (and I enjoy the notification sound letting me know it worked).
But at the very least, scrot can replace the script's use of gnome-screenshot for windowed games (for which gnome-screenshot actually sucks, because it makes the window flash white when the screenshot is taken, but I couldn't use flameshot for this case because it has no obvious way to screenshot a window). It can most likely replace flameshot for fullscreen games as well (although I don't actually remember which fullscreen games didn't work with gnome-screenshot and so I can't verify that scrot doesn't have the same issue). I'm going to be optimistic and just uninstall flameshot now.

>>528472720
>>528480129
Damn, I don't even need my shell script for the notification. I can just put
>--exec='notify-send "Saved screenshot" "$f"'
in the scrot options and get the same thing.
Sorry, shell script; it was fun writing you, but you might be garbage now unless scrot fails to detect certain games' window titles...

>>528481689
Never mind; my script gets a second chance at life.
Whatever scrot does to get the window title results in at least some Steam games being named like this, which is shit compared to how my script (using xdotool) named >>528452136.

Have any of you tried gaming on Linux on a Raspberry Pi?

I can run emulators on the Pi because they're often compiled for ARM64 (or you can compile them yourself)

But also I installed Box64 which allows x64 programs, like games, to run on ARM64. Even Windows games can apparently run with Wine.

I've tested it out though and I seem to be missing a bunch of x64 libraries. I installed some of them manually but there seem to be quite a few I'm missing and I'm too lazy to install them all manually.

>>528508785
Aren't there guides that give you list of required dependencies? Also, if you're going to emulate 32 bit applications make sure you're using wow64 enabled wine build since i386 emulation on arm64 sucks ass

>>528510943
>Aren't there guides that give you list of required dependencies?
Box64 has a script for installing some libraries. Currently I'm trying to run a Qt program and it seems to want a bunch of Qt libraries and associated libraries, so I've been getting the amd64 version of each library from Debian's website, but downloading and unpacking each deb individually is annoying.

>Also, if you're going to emulate 32 bit applications make sure you're using wow64 enabled wine build since i386 emulation on arm64 sucks ass
I'm just trying an x64 Linux program at the moment, because that's what Box64 is designed for. If I want to run x86 32-bit programs then I'll need to install Box86 as well as a 32-bit chroot with 32-bit libraries.

Maybe this is just a waste of time. I just thought it would be cool to get x64 programs/games running. I might download some more libraries from Debian and see how far I get.

Okay but Linux games, and no they're not all broken already.
Also, unless WoW64 can be retroactively applied to older Wine versions, this would also break older versions of Wine/Proton and all the games that benefit from them. "Switch to older Proton" as a fix isn't that uncommon if you look up old games on ProtonDB. If Valve has to update Steam to 64-bit and that kills all the Proton versions older than 9.0 or whatever, a non-zero number of games will die until whatever regression necessitated the use of older Proton builds is fixed (possibly fucking never, which is why having stable old Proton versions is a good thing).

It's bad enough that I have to choose between Windows, and an alternative whose maintainers and community have all but unanimously decided that games should be designed exclusively for Windows and nothing should run natively on their own shit. If I were to lose my ability to defy that cuck mentality by running native Linux games anyway, then I might just go back to Windows to spite the people who made it happen. A lot of more recent native games are 64-bit, of course, but I don't even want to take an inventory of how many of my old ones would become like all those 32-bit macOS bricks that used to be games.

>>528717330
