Wow, just seeing the name Jedi Outcast makes me want to dust off my copy and play it again. That was such a good series.

I don't do Novideo, but shouldn't this make it into the headline of the article?

Jedi Outcast works pretty well natively in Linux. I played a few years ago using https://github.com/xLAva/JediOutcastLinux

damnation - I saw the headline and was hoping for a fix for the hair strands in DA Veilguard, but nope, instead it's a popup warning fix, lol. Oh well.

It is fixed in the latest vkd3d-proton. I compiled it and added it manually, but I think it might be in the latest Proton-GE now. It's worth testing.
