Linux Port Native?

[TyranT⨁]

Will the Linux port be native, or emulated through some sort of wine wrapper?

[kittenm4ster]

I'm 99% certain it is native. Double Fine have never used Wine for their Linux stuff before.

I already have several Double Fine games, all native Linux versions.

I'm gunna hijack this thread rather than start a new one. The specs say intel HD 4000 is supported on Linux but in the additional notes it says the GPU must support OpenGL 3.3. In my understanding Intel HD is by default only OpenGL 3.0 on Ubuntu 14.04, even when fully updated. I have Intel HD 4600 & Steam says I have open GL 3.0, not 3.3. Could anyone clerify this?

Edit:

If you are using Intel HD graphics and are on linux do the following on the terminal:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:oibaf/graphics-drivers
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

That will upgrade the driver to OpenGL 3.3

Cool, thanks for the information guys. As for your question chris, I would say if you update your drivers for the Intel HD to the most recent, you should have OpenGL 3.3 support. If your card can support 3.0, I don't see why with some driver updates it will bring it to 3.3.

Exciting! I hope it will run well on Linux.

Anybody who have tried it yet?

Runs great here! Ubuntu 14.04 64 bit with GTX 760

I've only played it for 25 minutes but it seems to work great so far. Didn't work with my integrated Intel GPU but runs smoothly on a GT 630M with proprietary Nvidia drivers on Kubuntu 14.04, 64 bits. Steam overlay and achievements also work.

[matachi]

Great!

[oldrocker99]

Looking forward to it. I have a GT 750ti, and an AMD 8320, so I anticipate zero problems.

Basically Mesa doesn't support GL_ARB_compatibility and will never support it which means all applications that not request specific GL version will get 3.0 by default because it's latest version that contain deprecated features.

Ubuntu 14.04 should have 3.3 on Haswell by default, but you can check it for sure this way:

glxinfo | grep OpenGL

You'll likely see that supported core profile is 3.3.

Mesa can't create 3.1+ compat profiles at all. Though none of well-designed applications using compatibility profiles.

linux version is fine for me :)

What GPU/drivers?

I wonder how it's work on Intel too.
