Good pun, but I don't mind the delay if the game is going to be good too :)
Wine 9.13 brings more CMD.EXE engine rewrites, supports loading ODBC Windows drivers

You need to enable a setting for the prefix in the registry. For example import this kind of reg file (or set it manually):
That will load wayland driver ahead of x11 one in the prefix. Or if you use "x11,wayland", you can unset DISPLAY variable on demand for the same effect.

Quoting: Cr1ogenThank you very much for answering!! If it's not a bother, would you have a tutorial on how to activate it? Thank you

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Drivers]
"Graphics"="wayland,x11"

Oh, they have a native Linux version on Steam? I was considering getting it on GOG in general.
NVIDIA talk up their transition to open source GPU kernel modules

I'd say you should consider that in the context of nova + nvk. If it can work for you - then may be. But otherwise AMD is still a better option. So if you are upgrading today - no question there, get one of the latest AMD cards.

Quoting: TactikalKittySo is it safe to stay with NVidia at this point or should I still consider buying an AMD card if I upgrade from the RTX 3070?

Wine 9.13 brings more CMD.EXE engine rewrites, supports loading ODBC Windows drivers

I'm using it now - it's good, though there are some issues related to Plasma 5 which I hope won't be present in Plasma 6 (Debian was a bit slow in packaging it but it's coming soon). But those are compositor related I think. Wine Wayland itself is already very usable.

This is an interesting bit - Wine developers are considering moving from gstreamer to something else:

OBS Studio 30.2 is out now with native NVENC encode for Linux, shared texture support
15 July 2024 at 10:01 pm UTC
I'm not sure I understand it. OBS has no Vulkan video support at all. So how can you test it to crash with it? The only thing I know now that has Vulkan video support is mpv, as I said, and that's decoding:
https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/discussions/13909
I haven't seen any application that's using Vulkan video for encoding, besides AMF itself.

Quoting: pete910Slow with bad quality at a given bitrate, and more often than not just overloads and crashes.

What exactly is bad? Vulkan video in Mesa is very new and barely anything is using it. The only example I know is mpv for decoding.

Quoting: pete910That maybe the case but why is it so bad then if using the hardware to the full extent that AMF can?
