OpenTabletDriver VS osu

First follow the installation guide on https://opentabletdriver.net/

I don't have a huge amount of experience with Krita's Wayland performance because the situation on Wayland is still sub-optimal for art in general. Tablet support has gotten much better, but configuration per-app or tied to the desktop environment still seems to be a big issue. The idea that my tablet configuration might stop working if I switch off of a desktop environment is kind of a non-starter to me. It stinks because I really want to use Wayland, but even as recently as a month ago I tried to see if I could make the switch and couldn't.

Truthfully, if someone has a lot of money to dump around, devoting a few full-time developers or dropping cash on https://github.com/OpenTabletDriver/OpenTabletDriver would probably go a long way towards encouraging Wayland adoption from artists.

As far as I can tell the issue is not that Wayland can't do tablet control on the same level as X11, it's that the tools built around those capabilities still seem immature. OpenTabletDriver looks very promising but seems to have limited device support, limited in no small part by what tablets the devs have access to (my Cintiq 32 is unlikely to get added any time soon because it is no longer being sold and was expensive and uncommon when it was on the market).

The NVIDIA situation is also a problem, but there's nothing anyone can do about that other than yell at NVIDIA more.

> The text tool is a joke.

The text tool should see considerable improvement soon; the entire text engine got rewritten in the last release, the devs just only had time to get it to feature parity with the existing tools.

I believe Wacom is a first class citizen in Linux. They have it in the kernel (https://linuxwacom.github.io/). There is also https://opentabletdriver.net/ that is multi-platform.

If the Wacom driver is no longer compatible with your system, you might want to consider using a third party driver like OTD (https://opentabletdriver.net/)

Use OpenTabletDriver, you might have better luck.

One of these programs is called OpenTabletDriver and can be found here

You might give OpenTabletDriver a try, it seems like it supports that particular tablet according to their list of supported tablets.

- DIGImend and OpenTabletDriver look pretty similar in github activity(?)

You can try OpenTabletDriver, a 3rd party open source tablet driver, with support for your tablet. It has many different smoothing algoritms and filters and much more customisability than Wacom drivers, as well as pressure support.

The CD is for driver installation, however you don't need it. Drivers used to come on CDs. For Linux, you have two options, both third party: OpenTabletDriver or linuxwacom. For Windows, you might be able to find an older driver version in the archives on Wacom's website, since newer drivers dropped support for it (thanks, Wacom) or you can once again use OpenTabletDriver. Personally, I recommend using OpenTabletDriver for both operating systems. It's much more customisable, gives you higher hover height, allows for more pen compatibility and more.

maybe you only play in lazer, if so replace your account url from osu.ppy.sh to lazer.ppy.sh

osu! (latest version is FOSS)

If you need a screenshot then there's one here: https://github.com/ppy/osu/discussions/23343

there's been a cross platform version for a few years, it's quite nice https://github.com/ppy/osu/

Custom rulesets are posted here. Most of them have instructions on their respective GitHub pages but generally it goes: To install this ruleset put the .DLL file onto your osu/Rulesets directory under %appdata%/. Restart osu!lazer and it will do the rest for you.

{ "id": "txibq9", "name": "osu!", "description": "osu! is a free-to-play rhythm game where the player clicks circles to the beat. The game was created by Dean \"peppy\" Herbert and released on September 16, 2007. It was originally written in C# on the .NET framework for Microsoft Windows, and has since been ported to macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS. It was inspired by iNiS's rhythm game Osu! Tatakae! Ouendan, and also takes inspiration from other rhythm games like Taiko no Tatsujin, Beatmania IIDX, Elite Beat Agents, O2Jam, StepMania, and DJMax. The game is heavily community-oriented, with all beatmaps and playable songs being community-made through the in-game map editor. Four different game modes exist, offering various ways to play a beatmap, which can also be combined with modifiers that increase or decrease the difficulty. The original osu!standard remains the most popular to date. As of r/place 2022, the game had 19,872,585 monthly active users according to the game's global country leaderboards.\n\nThis art is centered at the coordinates (727, 727), a reference to the osu! meme WYSI (when you see it). The meme originates from osu! top player chocomint setting a score worth 727pp (performance points) on the map \"Blue Zenith\", twice in 2016 and 2017. The meme saw a resurgence in 2020 from the top player Aireu after setting a play on \"Guess Who Is Back\", awarding him 727pp.\n\nIn 2017, the osu! logo was one of the most long-lasting, organized, well-maintained, and griefed logos, and continued its trend in 2022. It began as a controversial build due to its large size, and the bottom-right of the circle was heavily disputed with r/Superstonk's GameStop artwork. Despite multiple raids and griefs from larger communities and streamers, the osu! community proved to be indestructible, defending itself and its many allies.", "links": { "website": [ "https://osu.ppy.sh", "https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osu!" ], "subreddit": [ "osuplace", "osugame" ] }, "path": { "T:0-1, 1-164": [ [ 721, 678 ], [ 728, 678 ], [ 729, 678 ], [ 729, 679 ], [ 730, 679 ], [ 730, 680 ], [ 731, 680 ], [ 731, 681 ], [ 735, 681 ], [ 735, 680 ], [ 736, 680 ], [ 737, 679 ], [ 746, 679 ], [ 746, 681 ], [ 748, 681 ], [ 748, 682 ], [ 750, 682 ], [ 750, 683 ], [ 752, 683 ], [ 752, 684 ], [ 753, 684 ], [ 753, 685 ], [ 755, 685 ], [ 755, 687 ], [ 758, 687 ], [ 766, 696 ], [ 766, 697 ], [ 769, 701 ], [ 770, 702 ], [ 770, 704 ], [ 771, 704 ], [ 771, 707 ], [ 773, 709 ], [ 773, 712 ], [ 774, 712 ], [ 774, 715 ], [ 775, 715 ], [ 775, 720 ], [ 776, 721 ], [ 776, 734 ], [ 770, 734 ], [ 770, 755 ], [ 768, 755 ], [ 768, 756 ], [ 767, 756 ], [ 767, 758 ], [ 766, 758 ], [ 766, 759 ], [ 765, 759 ], [ 765, 760 ], [ 764, 760 ], [ 763, 760 ], [ 763, 761 ], [ 762, 761 ], [ 762, 763 ], [ 761, 763 ], [ 761, 764 ], [ 758, 767 ], [ 757, 767 ], [ 755, 769 ], [ 753, 769 ], [ 753, 770 ], [ 752, 771 ], [ 750, 771 ], [ 750, 772 ], [ 748, 772 ], [ 748, 773 ], [ 746, 773 ], [ 744, 775 ], [ 740, 775 ], [ 739, 776 ], [ 735, 776 ], [ 734, 777 ], [ 720, 777 ], [ 720, 776 ], [ 715, 776 ], [ 715, 775 ], [ 711, 775 ], [ 711, 774 ], [ 709, 774 ], [ 709, 773 ], [ 706, 773 ], [ 706, 772 ], [ 704, 772 ], [ 704, 771 ], [ 702, 771 ], [ 702, 770 ], [ 701, 770 ], [ 701, 769 ], [ 699, 769 ], [ 699, 768 ], [ 698, 768 ], [ 698, 767 ], [ 696, 767 ], [ 696, 766 ], [ 695, 766 ], [ 695, 765 ], [ 694, 765 ], [ 694, 764 ], [ 693, 764 ], [ 693, 763 ], [ 692, 763 ], [ 692, 762 ], [ 691, 762 ], [ 691, 761 ], [ 690, 761 ], [ 690, 760 ], [ 689, 760 ], [ 689, 759 ], [ 688, 759 ], [ 688, 758 ], [ 687, 758 ], [ 687, 755 ], [ 685, 755 ], [ 685, 753 ], [ 684, 753 ], [ 683, 752 ], [ 683, 750 ], [ 682, 750 ], [ 682, 748 ], [ 681, 748 ], [ 681, 744 ], [ 680, 744 ], [ 680, 743 ], [ 679, 743 ], [ 679, 739 ], [ 678, 739 ], [ 678, 734 ], [ 677, 734 ], [ 677, 721 ], [ 678, 721 ], [ 678, 717 ], [ 679, 717 ], [ 679, 712 ], [ 680, 711 ], [ 680, 709 ], [ 681, 709 ], [ 681, 706 ], [ 682, 706 ], [ 682, 705 ], [ 683, 705 ], [ 683, 702 ], [ 684, 702 ], [ 684, 701 ], [ 685, 701 ], [ 685, 699 ], [ 686, 699 ], [ 686, 698 ], [ 687, 698 ], [ 687, 697 ], [ 687, 696 ], [ 688, 696 ], [ 688, 695 ], [ 689, 695 ], [ 689, 694 ], [ 690, 694 ], [ 690, 693 ], [ 691, 693 ], [ 691, 692 ], [ 692, 692 ], [ 692, 691 ], [ 693, 691 ], [ 693, 690 ], [ 694, 690 ], [ 694, 689 ], [ 695, 689 ], [ 695, 688 ], [ 697, 688 ], [ 696, 687 ], [ 697, 687 ], [ 697, 686 ], [ 699, 686 ], [ 699, 685 ], [ 701, 685 ], [ 701, 684 ], [ 702, 684 ], [ 705, 687 ], [ 710, 682 ], [ 710, 680 ], [ 711, 679 ], [ 712, 680 ], [ 712, 681 ], [ 713, 682 ], [ 714, 682 ], [ 714, 683 ], [ 717, 683 ], [ 719, 681 ] ] }, "center": { "T:0-1, 1-164": [ 724, 728 ] } }
