Quoting: omer666I agree. I'm looking into building a new rig soon and I was looking for a recent game to benchmark the whole stuff. Turns out there's no interesting title for me that's less than 2-3 years old. I'd want to try Cyberpunk 2077 now that it's less bug-heavy but turns out it's still 60 bucks and with the upcoming extension being quite pricey as well, I guess it's a no-go for me.

They make sales for it periodically. Though I think $60 for such sized game is normal.

Quoting: Avehicle7887Reminds of when I played Grimrock 2, the jaggies were horrible until I learned about basalt

For some reason game's anti-aliasing has very bad performance, framerate is tanked completely. And their temporal AA option is worse. VkBasalt SMAA works with good performance in comparison.

I'm currently using VkBasalt SMAA with Deus Ex: Mankind Divided (Wine+vkd3d-proton) and it works pretty well and better than game's own AA options.

QuoteAnother addition in FSR 3 is a "Native AA" quality mode that allows you to use FSR 3 without applying any upscaling but still gives you the high-quality anti-aliasing and sharpening of FSR.

Oh, that's what I was waiting for. It was weird they always conflated temporal anti-aliasing with upscaling before. They totally don't need to be.

May be they can turn FSR without upscaling part into a Vulkan layer now, similar to how VkBasalt does it. Otherwise there is no easy way to use it.

CDPR's expansions are usually pretty big, so I'd say the price is fine. It's not some minor reskin and such.

I don't see a point in pre-ordering though. It's not crowdfunding? I get that developers want to be paid in advance, but I'd rather do it for crowdfunded projects which actually do need it to be made.

Just finished Deus Ex: Mankind Divided for the first time. It was really good. So looking forward to more Cyberpunk :)

I assume it's not ready indeed. Otherwise Wine project would have switched to a single binary already.

It's currently set to i686-w64-mingw32-gcc-posix, but setting it to i686-w64-mingw32-gcc-win32 doesn't work either.

Hmm:

checking for i686-w64-mingw32-gcc... i686-w64-mingw32-gcc
checking whether i686-w64-mingw32-gcc works... no
configure: error: MinGW i386 compiler not found.
This is an error since --enable-archs=i386 was requested.
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found.  Stop.

That's weird since I have gcc-mingw-w64-i686-posix installed for building dxvk / vkd3d-proton. What am I missing?

If single wine binary is a thing in the new version, why does their 8.14 build for Debian still contain wine64? They decided not to remove that split yet by default?
