When you install PlayOnLinux the first time and start running a manual installation some of the Packages will error "File Mismatch" This is due to the PlayOnLinux scripts being out-of-date with the Winetricks repositories What happens is when you install a package, its actually using...

Yup, just another marketing scheme to get us to spend more money. Just like: The Dark Web

I think a lot of Netflix "original" movies and shows are not "original". I think they purchase the rights and someone else produces it. As in, I don't think Netflix has their own studio for creating movies like other professional studios. I've been trying Amazon Prime since my work pays for...

I honestly tried to play the original Tomb Raiders and found that manuvering Lara is waaaaaay too difficult. I had to run into the wall, turn her body, then jump and grab about 3 times before I actually latched onto a ledge. What a pain! I don't have the patience any more. This Anniversary...

This Anniversary is a re-make of the original Tomb Raider. Its much much better but you loose some of the nostalgia.

Its really not a game about story or missions, its about survival. So everyone who parachutes out of the plan "should" be the same level and you have to find weapons/armor/backpack as fast as possible. Then roam around until you die. Kinda short-lived, but can be fun

Yup, you can leave it in /home/batman/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix directory if you want. I have one called: masterprefix

Go your your .PlayOnLinux directory in your home. Open Wineprefix and you will see all of your Virtual Drives. What you can do is setup a "generic" Virtual Drive with no games installed, but have all the basic packages, DXVK and Wine setup. So all you do later on is copy the "generic" folder...

Great! We still have to do the overrides in Wine Configuration, but yes its so much easier now. After messing with it for two weeks I found out the problem is PlayOnLinux provided versions of Wine do not have Vulkan installed. This was my major hold-up. Now its just making sure I have the right...

One way to avoid all of these steps for multiple games is setting up everything in a generic Virtual Drive /home/username/.PlayOnLinux/wineprefix/ Name a Virtual Drive: masterdrive Then when you want to test a game with DXVK you just copy the folder and rename it. This new Virtual Drive will...

This guide will walk you through setting up Nvidia drivers, Wine versions and DXVK version for DirectX 11 games in PlayOnLinux 1. Install Nvidia 440 Use the Driver Manager or Additional Drivers (Mint/Ubuntu) to install Nvidia 440 drivers Reboot If you don't see 440 then you may have to enter...

I finally got DXVK working in PlayOnLinux Its fairly simple once I got the proper versions of everything in place. The REAL problem is that PlayOnLinux developers aren't compiling Wine versions with Vulkan. But Lutris developers are. So I'm going to mention it on the PlayOnLinux forum and see...

I finally got DXVK to run and now testing ABZU It still crashes, so I'm working on research why its still crashing.

Netflix and Amazon Prime work great in Chrome

You can download the latest and greatest DXVK DLLs from here: https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk/releases Remember to keep note of which video driver, vulkan version and Wine versions you are using. All will affect the success of Vulkan working in your Wine enviroment

Windows 8 isn't as bad as everyone makes it out to be. Its faster than windows 7, but not as stable in some area's. Really, Windows 7, 8 & 10 all have Vista in the background with some optimization and GUI changes. Thats all.

Here is a great and honest interview about porting Windows games to Linux and Mac. There are some great points about eON and Wine wrappers too. https://boilingsteam.com/an-interview-with-peter-mulholland-ex-vp/ Feel free to leave a thankful comment on boilingsteam.com
