TheGamersTavern

Hey gamers! We just created two new events for The Gamer's Tavern's community nights!

Check them out:

• Friday: Pulsar: Lost Colony
• Sunday: Peak

And don't forget @harrybo 's live streaming tonight, he will be playing BeamNG and show us the new rally update!

Come play with us!

I'm a bit late posting this but we set up two community nights this week

• Friday: Darktide
• Sunday: Pulsar: Lost Colonies

Join us and let's play together!

Hey adventurers! Come around, pull a chair and sit by the fire, it's time for an announcement.

We decided to host a new free service (surprise surprise!) and this time is Mobilizon

We decided to give all you gamers, streamers, content creators, etc. a brand new federated place where you'll be able to put your event/calendar, may it be about live streaming, publishing videos/podcast/audiobooks/books/whatever on your channel or just looking for some players for a cozy night. It's a calendar, it's a LFG tool, it's a plane - no wait, scratch this one - and it's yours and as always it's free of charge :)

You'll find the new service here

Seeing how much we expanded our self hosted catalog, we feel it's about time to publish a FAQ page on our blog and we will in the next few weeks. In the meantime, feel free to reach our staff and ask directly on Mastodon/Discord/Matrix/IRC/Lemmy

Proton:

• GE-Proton rebased on top of Valve's Proton 10 Bleeding Edge

• Wine-Wayland has been enabled and patches from upstream wine backported for it. YMMV (Your mileage may vary). Thanks Etaash-mathamsetty for the backporting as well as the wine-wayland specific patch fixes for various games.

• Dualsense controller patches from ClearlyClaire https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/7238 rebased (thanks loathingKernel)

Info regarding Wine-Wayland:

YMMV (Your mileage may vary). Most games that utilizes DXVK or VKD3D should be fine. Games that have native Vulkan or OpenGL are a coin toss. Most launchers should also be fine (Again huge thanks to Etaash, he's been hammering out a lot off the Wine-Wayland bug fixes, including one that was critical for OpenGL and launcher rendering). If a game or launcher isn't working, please DON'T come bugging us to fix it. Officially we're with Valve on this -- it's not supported. It's there for people to use/try/test out because it's a wanted feature, that's the extent of it.

New option for using Wine-Wayland:

PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1

New option for using HDR with Wine-Wayland:

PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1

It goes without saying, but just in case people don't know -- You need Wine-Wayland to use HDR, therefore you need both options for HDR:

PROTON_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1 %command%

If you want to use Wine-Wayland without HDR, you do NOT need this option:

PROTON_ENABLE_HDR=1

Known issues with Wine-Wayland:

DOOM 2016: Opens in small window and crashes on resolution change without mesa patch. Fixed with patch

DOOM Eternal: Crashes without mesa patch. Broken mouse cursor in menus, Broken mouse pointing in-game

DOOM The Dark Ages: Broken mouse pointing in-game

Wolfenstein The Old Blood: OpenGL error crash

Wolfenstein The New Order: OpenGL error crash

Wolfenstein Youn Blood: mangohud broken

Path of Exile/Path of Exile 2: Vulkan renderer broken without mesa patch. Fixed with patch.

AMD-Specific:

mesa patches needed for DOOM 2016 and DOOM Eternal: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/34918

mesa patches needed for DOOM Dark Ages: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/34944

mesa patches needed for Path of Exile/Path of Exile 2 (currently not submitted yet): https://github.com/Nobara-Project/rpm-sources/blob/42/baseos/mesa/min_image_count.patch

Hopefully we can figure out a fix for the cursor issue in the DOOM games. Fingers crossed

🎄 🎶

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

Ev'rywhere you go;

Take a look at the Steam store, take a look at GoG once again

With amazing games and wishlists aglow.

It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

🎶 🎄

Hey adventurers! As mentioned above, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas, and 'tis the season for being festive and kind to each others. With this in mind, we took inspiration from what we did last year (raiding each others wishlists and gifting games) and we tried to regulate that and expand it further, so I'm happy to announce that The Gamer's Tavern Secret Santa is back for 2024!

After the latest Steam shenanigans we also decided to expand it further to GoG,
