Project mention: How to Play Rise of Kingdoms PC version on Linux | reddit.com/r/RiseofKingdoms | 2023-01-25
If you have your "Play" button replaced by a "Launching" forever and you get a 'contestatsid' error, then you will need to edit a line in config.py file in your lutris directory as you can see here. Check this post and this other one if you don't know how to do it.

Project mention: Trying to get Vortex Mod Manager installed... | reddit.com/r/linuxquestions | 2023-01-01
i would use wine. use a new profile, too. further along, you'll probably need winetricks, so, start there. -- https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks -- be sure look for your distro's native package in it's package manager *before* downloading/using any other alternative installation method(s).

Project mention: New WIP alcove desk. Gotta add a couple shelves and some lighting | reddit.com/r/battlestations | 2022-12-31So it's an old 70's 8 track that was DOA at goodwill. I originally made it to be a sleeper case. The sliders and tuning knobs are functional using DEEJ and powered by an Arduino.

Project mention: "Add non-steam games" with Xbox Game Pass games VR ? | reddit.com/r/SteamVR | 2023-01-15
You could try using https://github.com/BrianLima/UWPHook this program and testing it. I really doubt it'll work, the VR tag is just a categorisation thing and so it shows up on the HMD page. It doesn't actually trigger any VR capabilities.

RBDOOM-3-BFG
Doom 3 BFG Edition with modern engine features (2021) like PBR, Baked Global Illumination, Soft Shadows, Cleaned up source, Linux and 64 bit Support
Project mention: id Software consolidates its Steam listings. "We’re rounding up id games on Steam for an improved shopping experience." | reddit.com/r/pcgaming | 2022-08-11On the other hand BFG edition supports 120Hz rendering and has some great gamepad support. However the "shoulder lamp" and some tweaked brighter lighting destroys the game's atmosphere IMO while some textures and lights appear worse. I'd still recommend it if you liked the original game, but perhaps also play it with RBDoomBFG and its GI datapak - it introduced PBR shaders and changes the lighting considerably, but the game wasn't designed for that so i'd recommend it only for a second playthrough (you can disable most of the effects but even then it still looks off). The official BFG edition is closer to the original Doom 3 but still has its own issues so unless you want 120Hz rendering and/or gamepad support, i'd still recommend the original (with Dhewm3). Also note that the original BFG edition doesn't allow you to skip cutscenes which is annoying for a second playthrough.

Anyone else here play POE and uese the POE market marco? https://poe-trademacro.github.io/ It was a life saver in determining the items value on the fly and seeing if it was worth keeping or not. We need someone with scripting experience to make one for Tarkov! We already have tarkov-market.com and they already created a market API. If we can get someone to create a POE like macro system, merged with already existing data from sources like tarkov-market.com it would cut down on online searchesby a shit ton.
