Quoting: berarmaWasn't it there from the start? I'd say so.

My memory isn't very reliable, but I checked some old promotional videos and the developer's split isn't there: HIB3, HIB4.

They link to the proper time for your comfort ;)

Yep, nothing to see here. And every time they put a release out that doesn't include a Mod API, you're left waiting for Bukkit to catch up.

I mean, I run 5 little worlds for my son to play on - every release of Bukkit from Alpha, to Beta, to Stable, often a version behind Mojang's official is a pain.

I think there's still a few months before beta is over. Not that I will be playing the beta anyway. I backed the game a while back but I want to jump straight in to the finished product when it's released

Quoting: AnonymousHey guys, Portal 2 has that Puzzlemaker thing ... this means it must include native BSP compile tools for Linux... Woohoo?

right now I'm just getting this, despite the file being there

Code:<code>xseba360@ubuntu:~/.local/share/Steam/SteamApps/common/Portal 2/bin$ ./vbsp_linux
./vbsp_linux: error while loading shared libraries: libtcmalloc_minimal.so.4: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory</code>

Thanks :D

Quoting: s_dDoes this mean (effectively) all Linux folks get P2 for free?! At least beta quality?

Nah. I had The Orange Box on Steam already, but Portal 2 on XBox. No sign of it here. :( Still, it's cool that it's finally coming to Linux. Not that I ever doubted it would.

Never mind. I got it working by setting $LD_LIBRARY_PATH and starting using ./vbsp_linux -game ../portal2 :)

I was waiting to see what the extra games drop would be, and although I've already played Fez on the XBox, it'll be cool to have it DRM-free (it is DRM-free, right?). I'm in! :D

As far as Steam vs. DRM-free goes, I've actually gone in the opposite direction. The first Humble Bundle I bought, I only used the Steam keys, but more recently I've moved to just grabbing the tarballs. Don't really know why. I don't keep Steam running in the background, so I suppose they start a bit more quickly when they don't have to log in to my account, but I'm not sure that's why I did it.

The beta is almost over and there is still no Linux version. :><:

On the bright side, the game seems to be shaping up quite well and can, on the whole, be considered a Kickstarter success story.

Fair point, Hamish, but it's less about what the game is than what it isn't, and it's definitely not about free markets. Which, as I say, is fair enough as far as it goes: it's a game about doing a lot of governing. In a sense, although we're clearly coming at it from more or less oppposite angles, I understand Kitten's frustration in not being able to try out your own favoured approach to see how it might work. Of course, to do that well you'd really have to accurately model every person in a real country (arguably the entire world), and we're some way off that yet. :)

anewson, we can argue about words, but you're right: this place is supposed to be about games, and I'm rather embarrassed that my first comment has veered so far off-topic. In fact, my intention wasn't to argue about exactly what philosophy the game seems to subscribe to, but simply to point out that as a game, there have to be rules and restrictions.

Quoting: Edgar

Quoting: al... its not fair to give the same amount to giana sisters (0$ this time) than to the swapper...

The detailed split was a great addition to the HIB, now we can deliver justice among developers!

Wasn't it there from the start? I'd say so.

Although the average paid for GNU/Linux is the highest we're the last in the totals. That means we're far behind in number of purchases.

I am not giving any money to Giana Sisters or Starseed Pilgrim (thank you for the air warning), this means more money for... Humble Hearts and Microsoft Studios... what?

Quoting: adolson

Quoting: xuwangMy fault for the off-topic. Last question -- what forums do you mean? Do you mean GOL or does Godot have a forum somewhere? Googling "Forum Godot" didn't turn up much.

Good luck with your project. I bet your buddy will be surprised if you finish it.

www.godotengine.org - check the community page. ;)

Thanks ;)

Bought this so long ago I can't remember! My Win partition's been gone a good while but was waiting on the native version anyway.

Download speed's not the best today but I've waited this long... :D

Quoting: s_dWut.

Does this mean (effectively) all Linux folks get P2 for free?! At least beta quality?

Downloading.

Confused...

I assumed that it was in my library because I had already bought it.

Quoting: DuncKitten, I heard the exact opposite, that it tended to force you into the Keynesian tax-and-spend model. In fact, that's why I didn't buy it.

Not to turn this into a politics or economics debate, but what I think you mean is a liberal tax-and-spend model. Keynesian demand management policy during a recession (which I assume is what you refer to) is to reduce taxes, not increase them.

Quoting: OrkultusThe Linux version of Cannons Lasers Rockets hit Steam for Linux today too!..Downloading it now. :)

So it did. http://store.steampowered.com/app/265770/

Never heard of it! Free to Play though, so it's gotta be worth a look, I suppose.

A F2P spaceship like MOBA, sounds really interesting !

Excellent, this also means we're one step closer to having the SDK available for a port of Stanley Parable.

Good to see they are paying attention to Rust's Linux users.

With Garry's mod Linux users get ignored. This 9 month old bug for example. Mounting Source content in Gmod isn't important or anything... Good thing someone not on the payroll stepped up and offered a temporary fix. Not a peep from Garry about it and the other mods just offer cocky comments.
