Fixed many EA games being unplayable after a recent EA Desktop update.
I didn’t think it was possible to make EA games playable.
Seems like a regression
I blacklisted everything with EA logo. Never buying anything from them again. Their anti consumer practices are just criminal
Oh sweet Liberty!!
Fixed a crash in HELLDIVERS 2 happening in high enemy-count missions.
Now fix alt tab crashing!!
That’s just really good emulation at work. Alt+tab crashes tons of games in Windows, too!
What does WINE stand for again?
Windows Is Not for Enyone.
WINdows Emulator. Very simple
Something something not an emulator
I’ll allow it
We are not here to emulate everything from Windows, otherwise we would not need to. Ideally we emulate only what we need. :-)
WINE/Proton are translation layers. It is NOT emulating
And their approach is litteraly to make everything work even unused soft that got multiplatform release that date 20 year ago
I don’t recall ever having a game crash while alt tabbing on winblows. Happens all the time for helldivers
Truly, you have led a blessed life.
I’ve never used W11 as main OS, so there’s that
I was having it a bit towards the end of win 10, Linux has it a bit worse but that might have been me running with my CPU graphics enabled, it was really fucking with things.
Linux doesn’t seem to like alt tabbing when in exclusive full screen mode. Can mitigate by pressing alt+enter to go to windowed mode quickly then alt tab to your heart’s content… Till you forget to alt+enter.
Thank you kind stranger, I did not know about that command and will try it out. I typically avoid alt-tab with fullscreen in games for this reason and have to force quit the applications since the screen will be frozen.
I still tend to see an issue with setting up resolution and window settings on new games where the screen will stop refreshing once I commit the change and then I have to close the application and restart it to continue. I guess I could stick with windowed but it was my understanding that variable refresh rate only really works in full screen mode.
