    I always use Nvidia drivers. Open source drivers aren't quite "there" yet. Doublebuffering has something to do with managing memory with Dot Net Framework. It can improve performance in Graphics heavy programs: Doublebuffering

    So strange because mine plays almost flawlessly. Some slowness while starting a level, but otherwise, smooth and fun. I'll post a video!

    Build a World

    This is the problem with downloaded indie games. They just give you the game folders. LinSteam is great because it downloads and installs the game for you. Even the Double-Fine Linux games have to be extracted and made executable. But once you do it, they are good-to-go.

    Debug Debug Debug. Re-installing is probably the best thing you can do. If you think the virtual drive is corrupted, then I recommend downloading it all over again. I still don't understand the font problem. If you decide to install again and still have the font problem or crashing.... you can...

    As for humble bundles, just claim the key and then give it away. Once its activated, that account gets the game forever. So if you give me a key and I activated it, then its my game. Not sure how it works for bundle websites because you will still have the key there, but you can't activate it...

    There is a chance, I would start with a lower resolution: 1024x768 then bump up to 1365x768 or even 1440x900 Notice all the settings showed "high" but it was the lowest setting because there is "Very High" "Extreme" and "Ultra" On top of that it is running in Wine so you will sacrifice CPU...

    There has been two updates since last week. One was almost 2 Gigs of data, the second was about 500 MB. So those updates can fix or break your game. Mine still worked just fine.

    Hello everybody

    It really depends on the game. If you are playing native Linux games like Half-Life 2, Left4Dead 2, Counter-Strike:Source, Brutal Legend, 0.A.D., Quake Wars, Doom 3, Quake 4, Defense Of The Ages 2, Portal... and a bunch of indie games... then maybe a boost in performance. But if you are trying...

    I really think we need a Guides button up at the top next to Home, Forums, Members, Help This way readers can go directly to our guides without have to browse the frontpage or the forum I know it seems redundant because its only two clicks to Guides, but it also features the Guide forum right on...

    Crysis 2 Guide

    There is no better place for violent alien occupancy than New York its self. In Crysis 2 you play as a Naval soldier called Alcatraz, but as your ship is captized and destroyed you find yourself on a beach at the feet of Prophet. Prophets days are done and he is handing all responsibilities...

    Two-lens camera, 360-degree photos

    Please please shoot some skydomes for game developers with this. I couldn't play the video, but what were the specs on this camera? This is what indie developers have been waiting for to make their own skydomes.

    dota2 native linux : sound problems

    I had a strange problem over the weekend... I am trying to make a video with recordmydesktop so we can have video guides and there was no audio. So I tried setting the output to onboard, which I thought was already set because I can obviously hear my games and now I can hear sound in my video...
