Lutris [Official Site], the excellent all-in-one game manager solution is really starting to show off now. The latest beta has some nice improvements to tidy it all up.
From the release notes:
The second beta for Lutris 0.5.0 comes with a refined UI for picking installers and a complete UI for syncing games. Desktop games, GOG, Steam and Wine Steam should now all work properly.
One major issue left to fix before the release is the handling of the stop button.
When taking a look at it today, the refinements are noticable. In particular, when picking an installer to use it really looks quite slick now:
The UI to actually sync up your games to Lutris is also looking rather good:
I've given the sync feature a test and it works exactly as I was expecting. It added some games nicely to my Lutris library and allowed me to very easily download, install and play with the click of a few buttons. It's quick, it looks good and it works well and that's exactly what I want.
I'm so very impressed with the work that has been put into Lutris, if they keep going as strong as this 2019 is going to be a fun year for them. Given how nice it looks and how well it seems to work now, this might actually be my go-to application to manage games across different stores.

Quoting: jarhead_hAt some point I might have to try Far Cry 3 again and see if it's any better. My last attempt featured a 1060 6GB averaging ~20FPS with a lot of settings turned down. The Far Cry series does not like WINE/Proton.
I was mistaken. I checked ProtonDB and discovered that Far Cry 3/ FC:Blood Dragon both run fine with the Uplay crack. Been playing for hours and it runs great. Do a little digging. There's a video with link on Youtube.

Quoting: liamdaweI'll be much more likely to buy from GOG now. The lack of a coordinated launcher for Linux kept me away before.Quoting: dpanterCould this be the solution to the launcher madness?In one way yes! I mean, Galaxy isn't even on Linux and this will allow you to download any of your GOG games easily.
Just as a reminder for everyone, you can back Lutris on Patreon, and I think they're at nearly $500 per month and 150+ supporters. Let's get that up for this essential tool!
