Re: The Humble Indie Bundle V

I can't run both Psychonaut's and Supermeatboy's installer bin... "zsh: no such file or directory: ./psychonauts-linux-06042012-bin"
I downloaded the amd64 version..

output of "file":

psychonauts-linux-06042012-bin: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked (uses shared libs), for GNU/Linux 2.6.8, stripped

forget about it... I'll just run from my chroot. I thought these were 64bit

Re: The Humble Indie Bundle V

I'm trying to make the maintainers to actually do something about broken dependencies (like introducing a virtual "dri" package for applications that require hardware acceleration) so that the PKGBUILDs could have "depends" that actually work, but I'm met with a bit of opposition:

If I suggest adding dependencies directly to packages, they won't listen and just close bugs:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30250
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30251

Alternative solution (support for logical or in dependencies) is also met with quite cold welcome:
https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/30125

I don't know, either I'm sounding rude to native speakers (I'm sorry then, I wouldn't be using Arch for more than 5 years if I didn't value their work) or a single "trouble maker" is ignored (for some unknown reason).


sorry for my miserable english, it's my third language ; )

Re: The Humble Indie Bundle V

When I play Bastion and go to any shop, the items automatically scroll so I can't pick a weapon. I have to time it and am hardly successful. Any fixes for this?

I've already downloaded the latest bastion version too:

Version        : 3-2

Re: The Humble Indie Bundle V

Whenever I try to run Bastion with my nvidia card, half the screen is missing (windowed or not). I'm not impressed.

With the intel card, and the hacky extra parameter, it runs, but chokes when there's rain. Removing all the rain is hardly a solution. So much for Linux support.

I also wasted about half an hour to get Limbo working, in the end finding out that it works with either the builtin Wine or Arch's default, but you musn't have more than 1 screen set up with randr or it just crashes.

I haven't tried the other games yet.

Sorry for the rant, I had to. I hate being lied to.

At least you could admit, that not everything is the developer's fault (for example problem with intel cards). Also did you try the new Bastion build?

It's not fair to blame intel's bad driver performance on the game developers.

What is the new Bastion build? Google doesn't seem to know. Pacman says I've got 2012-06-13, I don't know how to make Bastion itself speak. And where do you even get different Bastion builds?

I don't think there's anything wrong with Intel's drivers. For example, they work fine for Heroes of Newerth. And HoN works with Bumblebee aswell. This is a Bastion problem.

From your humble bundle purchase site. How should google know, that there is a new Bastion build for Linux? And how should pacman know it? Also the build is from 2012-06-14.

I have that build, which other one would I have gotten? And pacman does show a package version if you use the installer that comes with Bastion.

This bundle was great this time. Bastion is a fantastic game. I've played through that and Limbo so far. I wanted to play Braid now. Does anybody know if Braid supports gamepad like a xbox 360 controller?

Bastion works without any problems using OSS Radeon drivers so it's more a problem of Intel GPU performance or their drivers performance. Not much Bastion developers can actually fix...

Seems like they're using some calls only Intel cards/their drivers choke at.
Has someone tried running Bastion on Windows with the same Intel card that's causing problems on Arch?

I couldn't bring myself to blame Intel's drivers because they've served me fantastically so far, definitely better in terms of configuration than Nvidia's (but that's Optimus's fault, I guess proper desktop cards don't have many problems).

Do you have a Microsoft keyboard(/mouse combo)? The bloody things show up as a joystick to implement some of those extra non-standard buttons. Some models do this even if they don't have them. My one only has volume, mute and play/pause. Both give standard XF86 key codes with xev yet it still makes a js0 device.

Your options are to either:

  • Create a udev rule (recommended but I can't get this working for myself)

  • Blacklist the joydev module

  • rm /dev/input/js0

  • Unplug the keyboard, run the game, then plug it back in

I had this too.  Up and to the Left like the Zibruder Film.

I was using the xboxdrv userspace driver, and it worked pretty well with Bastion out of the box.   Beautifully, in fact.  I am also using a Logitech K750 wireless solar keyboard (with its own power switch), and a standard USB laser mouse.  The keyboard has a couple of extra functions, but nothing too crazy.  Nothing to make it show up as a joystick like quantumphaze mentioned about Microsoft keyboard and mouse sets.

In Psychonauts, It works normally when I leave the Xbox controller turned off before even choosing to run the game..  But when I get nostalgic for the console roots of the game, this same "Zibruder error" doesn't go away even after I turn off the controller.  The js0, js1, etc interfaces from the controller are not turned off because the game doesn't know to quit them.

Yep, sounds like the game doesn't handle joysticks very well at all.  It's playable, but I'm not satisfied enough to stop looking for a way to use my gamepad.

I got Bastion to run on my friend's Intel card under Ubuntu just fine when I forced it to a lower resolution, try the cmd line switches:

-windowed -x [xres] -y [yres], I just forced it down to 800x600 and it ran butter smooth, despite being completely unplayable in native resolution.

Re: The Humble Indie Bundle V

at the moment, I have Bastion running ok with a wired xbox360 controller and xpad.  I am not too sure which build it is, but I downloaded it today from HB site.  There is no rumble, however.  Otherwise directional controls/attack/etc work fine.  It SOMEWHAT works with xboxdrv, except that once you are in game, button A does not evade - it works fine in menusm however.

Yes it does work with a xbox 360 controller. You have to use the xboxdrv and then you need to put the xinput1_3.dll and xbox360ce.ini from this package

x360ce vibmod 3.1.4.1.zip

http://virusdev.ovh.org/files/ (found here)

where the limbo executable is and then launch limbo after you have set up the xboxdrv.

EDIT:

I launch the xboxdrv with these options

xboxdrv --silent --trigger-as-button --ui-axismap x2=ABS_Z,y2=ABS_RZ --ui-buttonmap A=BTN_B,B=BTN_X,X=BTN_A,TR=BTN_THUMBL,TL=BTN_MODE,GUIDE=BTN_THUMBR

You will need to launch the xboxdrv like this:

xboxdrv --trigger-as-zaxis

if you want rumble then use "--force-feedback", it isn't working very well on limbo.

I finally just switched the resolution from the game menu (it ignored the switches for me). It runs smooth with the rain and stuff.

Just finished the game in one sitting. Amazing :) Haven't done that in a 7 years :-D
