Sorry the only 3d game I ever made was a Doom clone, and it was pretty bad lol. I don't really know what a voxel even is, I kind of just do things by feel haha.
I I'll definitely try out Godot, I kind of just gave up on making any games when I switched to Linux about 7 years ago. It'll be cool if it works
This makes sense to me. I tried to run Unity and UE5 once on Linux. Fuck it's annoying to even get the SDK running. Valve's games are perfect on Linux and run like a dream, I wish more games were like that, but it has to start at the tooling level.
I'm wondering if my audio setup is confusing some games? I installed JACK and Reaper along with other audio software because I like to make music, but I would think that if it's not running then it wouldn't affect anything
I'll just use proton tbh lol. I try and avoid deep dives on my PC, I don't have the energy or time anymore to do that. Unless I really care about it, like getting my DAW setup with JACK and multi MIDI loops, but you only have to do that once rather than per game
What setting was that? For it to live in your BIOS/UEFI of all things ia also bizarre... Unless you mean the secure boot / trusted drivers stuff, which I disabled yonks ago.
Yeah by default the A.I. will write some really weird stuff... I remember once I had to write to my ex's lawyers, and it was weirdly aggressive. It reminded me of the script from a Phoenix Wright game, making baseless accusations just to offend them or something, inventing new laws that they were in breach of... I'm like ok let's just delete all that haha no way do I want that read out loud in court. But the rest of it had decent bones, it used the lawyer-y words that I always forget about
Imagine if your gaze lingers slightly too long on a packet of Tim Tams, but you're trying to be good, and you have a conversation with your partner about how hard it is to kick sugar. Then later you start getting aggressively advertised to, TimTams everywhere on massive discount, because Meta knows your weakness now. But not just with chocolate, with everything in your life, exploited as ruthlessly as possible, and also you paid a premium for that privilege.
I get A.I. to rewrite some emails to be "more professional" because I'm not good at corpo speak, then I dial it back 20%. I used to just write emails normally but I got in trouble for that. Now I can remotely trick people into thinking I'm neurotypical. It's the only helpful use case I've found in my life. Ideally I'd be allowed to write emails in the same natural tone I wrote this comment, but we don't live in an ideal world unfortunately
I had this exact problem with games like Doom Eternal. Even in easy mode, I really struggled with that game because I only could play one mission per week or two. So I'm rolling into the final boss battle having forgotten how to use the chainsaw or the grenades or flamethrower, and I just get my ass kicked. I spend 45 minutes dying and relearning the game, 15 minutes playing, and then I have to stop again.
Thankfully in that game you can just use cheats like infinite lives, but many games have no cheats or easy mode. I still have no idea how I got to the final boss in Bloodborne and Sekiro, I think I just cheesed the A.I. lol
I shouldn't have to do that to play a game. You can't say "gaming on Linux is accessible and easy now", and then tell people to static link their dependencies into an executable. That's a hack job patch, not a solution.
Yeah but squinting at a pdf on your monitor pales in comparison to whipping out the glossy colour print instruction booklet. I remember playing Morrowind and it came with an actual map. It was so much fun I forgot the game itself had that feature. More games should come with maps, man. Where's my BOTW map?
Oh yes that's right, you awakened a traumatic repressed memory where I keep all my games on a secondary SSD and because I installed either snap or flatpak (can't remember), it just shit itself and failed to work properly. Took me ages to figure that out.
It would be nice if there was actually good native Linux games. Imagine how buttery smooth they would run. Valve games one of the reasons they're so enjoyable is they run perfectly on Linux, chef's kiss. But they made the steam deck so it would be silly if they didn't
I don't get noticeable FPS hits or graphical issues with Proton. In fact, in many cases Proton actually outperforms Windows in FPS.
I don't think many people are willing to mess with that symlink stuff to be honest, I know I'd only do it if I had a really good reason to. But I'm not a Linux expert, I don't really understand that kind of stuff and would probably fuck up my game or system if I tried. I know enough to read and mostly comprehend commands that I'm copy pasting into terminal
