libx52 VS legendary

I have been doing a bit of research and found a github page with an open source driver for the Logitech x52 hotas https://github.com/nirenjan/libx52 I also found that CH Products offer gear that requires no drivers, just straight plug 'n play, and their stuff is priced decently, though it does look very plastic / cheap.

Lookup libevdev, it has a wrapper around uinput. If you want a sample, check out https://github.com/nirenjan/libx52/blob/master/daemon/x52d_mouse_evdev.c

If you want a sample project that uses libusb, feel free to peruse my libx52 project here.

I built a project to support the Saitek X52 joystick on Linux. It was primarily started to teach myself Linux programming, but it's grown much beyond it's original intent. My end goal is to support everything that the Windows driver does, and then some.

OBS is natively available for Linux iirc so that won't be much of an issue. I can't really speak on your external hardware like the Saitek or Elgato stuff but if they are for whatever reason not part of the 'linux-firmware' then this might be of interest for you. As you might have noticed on Linux github/gitlab will quickly become your friend so it might be wise to learn a few git commands.

Since I play mostly in Linux, I needed something to set up the device, I found a C library (https://github.com/nirenjan/x52pro-linux) and a GUI app (https://github.com/leinardi/gx52) that could do the job, but the only python module was Windows only (it used a Windows DirectOutput DLL).

There's a X52 tool for the CLI too, if you want to script in Bash. It's on https://github.com/nirenjan/x52pro-linux

You should try using Legendary. It's an open-source command-line client for Epic. It does pretty much what Epic does but it's quicker to install/launch games and you won't have to worry about telemetry or "spyware." Although, you will have to buy games through the Epic online store.

I'm using an open-source alternative to the epic games launcher (legendary) that uses wine, and when i try to run a game through the terminal, a log of wine shows up.

It's an epic games launcher alternative, and a UI frontend for Legendary. (Don't worry, guys. It can launch non-epic games as well 😅) It's simply meant to be like heroic, but this time putting macOS first.

If you are familiar with using the command-line then you can use Legendary and import the game to your EGS, but you will need to do this one by one for each game.

Oh, you're talking about the launcher? Just use Legendary. CLI-based, so performance isn't an issue. If you know how to use a command line, you'll know how to use legendary with no problem. You can even launch some games without ever connecting to Epic after downloading them. Highly recommend, it's what I use.

Hay un launcher alternativo, Legendary. (https://github.com/derrod/legendary). Se usa con comandos (al menos la última vez que lo usé no tenía interfaz). Es.. interesante.

Grab your favorite EGS client and install the game. For this purpose I am using legendary. Legendary is important later, so it is a good idea to have it installed regardless. At this stage, if you try running the game, the game will crash within moments, and spawn 2 windows: a Wine debug window, and a bugsplat window.

If you want to avoid using the Epic Games Launcher, but still want to play the games you have there, you can use Legendary (which requires you to use a command line) or Heroic Games Launcher(which is based on Legengary and has a Graphical User Interface, so is much more user friendly). Both are open source.
