This looks similar to the problem plaguing Tannenberg, making one of my favorite games unplayable. I'm looking forward to heading home later and trying this fix. Thank you Liam!!
Editorial: An open letter to Valve on why they should keep on embracing Linux

Quoting: subAnd now it's just that company with that big store. :/I think Valve has known this was coming for a bit and the news, perhaps later than it should have, has kicked them back into gear as a software developer again. Didn't they acquire a few studios several months or a year back? I think you're right, though, that in retrospect, I bet they wish they hadn't taken the "easy way" out the last few years. While I don't think they're going anywhere soon, Valve may certainly need to ramp up their own offerings as counter "exclusives" to what Epic is doing.
Just my 2 cents.

Apparently it kinda works on Steam Play, but I'm really looking forward to the native version. Insurgency is a favorite.
Egosoft to launch X4: Foundations on November 30th, hopefully with a Linux beta build

Nothing imminent. I think in the past the Linux versions of X games came out several months after initial launch, usually benefitting from all the bug fixes and tweaking of the Windows version. Sadly, the Windows version doesn't work with Steam Play, which is surprising as the Windows version works via Vulkan.

This could be the first of such sim games I jump at...
Intel's new discrete GPU will have a focus on Linux gaming

However, and this almost certainly isn't the place for this, I don't see the point of an AMD card. I'm thinking of getting a new desktop and it appears on Linux even the fastest AMD card is slower than the Nvidia 1070 I've been running the past two years without issue. Except if you're very devoted to the idea of FOSS for drivers, and if you're not cost retrained, why go AMD? Again, taking the FOSS vs non-FOSS out of the equation... Honestly wondering.

Quoting: pete9102020 is indeed far away in computer years...QuoteI'm pretty happy to wait and see how Intel's new GPU turns out first.
You're going to be waiting a while :P
Just go get a AMD card!

This game *is* a lot of fun. I come and go from it from time to time, and you're right, some of the mods are excellent.

Quoting: Doc AngeloImagine someone would make a 3D game in space that is physically correct and you have to plot courses to other planets which are moving all the time and will be at a completely different place when you get there.I would want that game :). But in my game, that's what flight computers are for ;p.
I think only very few people would have fun with this.

Given my space sim obsession, I need to check this out. I've never given it a shot. There are some players out there who fully believe this is the best space combat MMO ever, so I should try it at some point.

Quoting: BeamboomIf anything, ANYTHING need to be in three dimensions, it's SPACE.Relax, your game is coming. X4 from Egosoft is releasing on Nov. 30th (at least for Windows, supposedly a Linux demo around the same time?). I... Can't... Wait...
