Car_Killer · Aug 16, 2017

I installed Antergos on mine laptop with dualboot.
Also it have wine, so I try to run BeamNG on it.
Tested on Linux Antergos 17.8, with Gnome on Wayland.

What work:
-CEF menu
-sound
-runs smooth
-graphics but a bit glitched
-steering
-lua
-physics

Issues:
-Only in fullscreen
-Only on iGPU
-Randomly crashes
-Graphics glitches
-Only default D15
-Only Small Grid Map, Pure
-mouse problems
-no graphics multithreading
-cant use any screen recorder

Edit 1:
Many of these problems exist because Wine doesn't support DirectX 11 fully. Only partially. So in next versions of Wine we will have better compatibility. Probably DirectX 9 version of Beam works much better.

That's awesome news! The only thing preventing me from fully switching to Linux is BeamNG.Drive. A lot of the problems would be solved with BeamNG switching to Vulcan, I'd guess. But that'd require a lot of work on the game engine, so I don't see that happening in the near future. Hopefully the DX11 support will keep on improving.
