Wine 9.22 released noting the 'Wayland driver enabled in default configuration'

Quoting: WMan22What do they mean by "Support for Display Mode Virtualization", is gamescope built into wine now or something?

It means if the game tries to set fullscreen resolution to something low, Wine will scale that to your display resolution. Except now it's not doing it neatly, placing the result not centered and leaving transparent band on the right if aspect ratio doesn't match. I filed a bug about it. Not sure what gamescope is doing, I'm not using it.

Just got the game from GOG. Is it compiling shaders for this long on every startup?? That's just insane.

And something is seriously wrong with such design. I can understand first time compilation, but if there was no underlying hardware / graphics driver change, there is zero reason to recompile any shaders again unless the game doesn't cache stuff.

The price looks a bit crazy though. Did you buy the full version?

Quoting: Jarmer(also can we all just ignore the troll in this comment thread pls)

Troll who probably didn't even play the game but knows that the story is bad.

Quoting: Leahi84Why are they calling it Chornobyl?? It's supposed to be Chernobyl.
Depends on the language transliteration. I think they changed it due to Russia invading Ukraine, since Chernobyl is Russian transliteration and Chornobyl is Ukrainian one.

Looks cool. I'll probably wait for a bunch of bug fixes follow ups before buying it.

I wish these engines didn't use some junk video codecs in this day and age. It's good to see that Everspace is trying to fix it, I wonder how exactly.

Oh, it's still in early access? I've read already that they will try GOG release when it's not in early access state.

That's not an answer really. Just feels like running around the issue. Why can't they release it on GOG?
