 Atemu | Oh my | 22:08:04 |
 matthewcroughan | I've wanted to make a derivation for compiling the latest open sourced dos, eventually there'll be some gaming potential there too | 22:09:13 |
| matthewcroughan | One of the og engineers walks through the process of compiling it here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BR6F0EdyulA | 22:10:08 |
| matthewcroughan | I'm wondering if I can make use of my existing makeWin30Image to bootstrap and compile the MS-DOS 4.0 source code, since it'll have all the MASM and stuff
(makeWin30Image {}).makeRunScript {
diskImage = makeWin30Image {
dosPostInstall = "stuffToCompileDos4.0";
};
}

 woobilicious | Anyone here use zink? I do wonder if I should run zink + vulkan overlays instead of dirty injection hacks. | 07:31:17 |
 K900 | To do what? | 07:31:33 |
| K900 | Generally Zink is worse than native GL for basically all hardware | 07:31:42 |
| K900 | At least for now | 07:31:58 |
| woobilicious | K900: I mean as a default driver, looks like it's been enabled as a default build in mesa, and some newer hardware requires it, so I wonder how ready it is. | 07:39:18 |
| K900 | Uhh | 07:39:26 |
| K900 | What newer hardware? | 07:39:28 |
| woobilicious | https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/merge_requests/27737 | 07:39:45 |
| K900 | A7xx is Adreno mobile | 07:40:04 |
| K900 | That's a whole other world | 07:40:06 |
| K900 | There's also technically PVR Rogue | 07:41:42 |
| K900 | That has never shipped in a product | 07:41:50 |
| woobilicious | Gonna try it out on factorio...lets see how bad it is. | 07:47:52 |

Gonna try it out on factorio...lets see how bad it is. factorio was extremely addictive for me... once. Once I got my first rocket launch I pretty much lost all motivation to play the game. | 08:35:54 |

What newer hardware? Like, all Nvidia GPUs of the past couple of years | 09:35:22 |
| Atemu | NVK uses zink | 09:35:36 |
 Tumble | In reply to @atemu12:matrix.org
(Meaning on your hardware; you don't have to do any work here, just your PC) If it fixes things,
Makes everything work,
easily reproducable in future of it works,
and easily reversable if it breaks
Then I'll do it | 09:59:23 |
| K900 | In reply to @atemu12:matrix.org
Like, all Nvidia GPUs of the past couple of years I'm not really counting NVK because NVK is still very experimental | 10:25:20 |
| Tumble | Is not using steam vr better than using steam vr? | 11:51:18 |
| matthewcroughan | In terms of performance due to the inability of the FHS Env to get the realtime capabilities, yes | 11:51:44 |
| matthewcroughan | Unless you're using amdgpu and can patch the kernel driver sources to fix that problem | 11:52:00 |
| Tumble | In reply to @matthewcroughan:defenestrate.it
In terms of performance due to the inability of the FHS Env to get the realtime capabilities, yes Does hl:alyx work without steamvr? | 11:52:12 |
| matthewcroughan | unsure | 11:52:15 |
| Tumble | I just have a list of valve games I've been going though late last year and I'm up to alyx | 11:53:03 |
| Tumble | Does the mondeo as a systemd service mean I just run game and vr headset should activate or soemthing? | 11:54:10 |
