vkquake installed!
Looks good~
MUSIC STILL REFUSES TO PLAY
Is there some easy installer software that just does everything for me?
I have the music installed in Id1/music but no dice; game refuses to load the music =_=
EDIT: Better yet is there some case sensitivity to the id1 folder? Like it needs to be id1 and not Id1 or something?

Mosaic pre-orders are live. I had high expectations for this game but tried it a little bit on Apple Arcade when it launched and I actually found it kinda dull to be honest. I hope it gets better after the first hour but I won't pick it up at launch as I thought I would.
I just tried this for testing purposes and for me it plays ok when using vkQuake.
I have ...\Quake\Id1\music and the tracks are in ogg-format starting from track02.ogg.
Do you hear the classic Quake music Aftermath if you open console and type playdemo demo1.dem?
Hope Disco Elysium goes on sale.. Even like 10% would be nice.

Yes it does! When I type that, music plays. Mind you I enter into Easy gate, but that shouldn't affect the music playing shouldn't it?
EDIT: If I type Play music in the console it gives me error
Couldn't load sound/music.wav
I do not have any .wav audio >_>;
EDIT2: I have both .mp3 and .ogg files in the music directory and hand't applied the Extra mission music
EDIT3: According to this I ought to be able to turn off or on the type of audio the game should play
FreshPorts -- games/vkquake: Quake 1 port using Vulkan instead of OpenGL, based on QuakeSpasm
vkQuake is a Quake 1 port using Vulkan instead of OpenGL for rendering. It is based on the popular QuakeSpasm port and runs all mods compatible with it like Arcane Dimensions or In The Shadows. Compared to QuakeSpasm vkQuake also features a software Quake like underwater effect, has better...

Steam Community :: Guide :: Quake (Original) Patch: Music + Quakespasm Port
This is a simple patch made for those who prefer to play the original Quake using the Quakespasm port. After installing the patch just launch 'Quake (Original)' from Steam and it will launch Quakespas
I used it this summer and with a direct access to the quake.exe I played with music for the first time. Zero problems and easy to install, everything is automated.
I hope it helps
Bioshock is so good. (not the remaster it is horrible and crashes often), almost done with my replay for the first time since launch and it holds up really well. And then onto Bioshock 2, which I have never played.

Install this, music plays, then overwrite installed files with vkquake's.
Did you fix your problems with the game?
Bioshock 2 is the best one in the trilogy for me, I had a lot of fun with the game, very interesting and intriguing characters...
Remember to run it from the directory/direct access not through Steam and you will be fine
Nope didnt fix, still get occasional crashes I try to exit the game and restart every 45 minutes or so just in case of lost saves. The loss of saves havent been too bad though, usually only about 10 minutes lost. I am almost done thankfully, I think I am on my way to the final boss so I will be done tonight anyways. Hoping Bioshock 2 remaster is better in terms of crashing.Did you fix your problems with the game?

One of the two videos I wanted to make for a long time is finally ready:
I know I'm kinda late with this review, but Assassin's Creed Odyssey is a HUGE game, and I sure took my time finishing it. Traveled around the whole map, completed all of the base game quests, and took dozens of screenshots because this game can be really beautiful. There's a lot of problems though, which I discussed in my video, mostly related to story ending and microtransactions. But if Ubisoft will continue to improve the new gameplay formula, the next AC game might become truly amazing.
Anyway, back to editing my second video that I wanted to make for a long time...

For whatever odd reason it keeps thinking it has to play the .wav version of the music...
Bloodstained got updated cover art, beautiful.

jesus ... fucking FINALLY! they took their sweet-ass time with that one
I don't know if that fits, since it's not on Steam yet, but I finished The Alliance Alive.
It's an odd mix of old RPGs, with progression not unlike SaGa, where you get stronger by fighting and unlock new skills by using old ones (but much less so than The Legend of Legacy that released two years before, there's no attack or defense stats here), and pretty much all of the upgrades are made of gear. Combat is quite good, even if much easier and ultimately, simpler than the previous game.
But it's also a bit of Suikoden, with NPCs to recruit and towers to build to make your guilds stronger, to get buffs, enemy info, craft new gear... and in general, if they are not really that interesting as characters, finding them and building your team is a big deal for exploration, good incentives to explore, even the world map is very important and offer a surprising large amount of secrets, from little gems to exchange for gear to big monsters to fight, as well as many, many optional zones and dungeons. And you have plenty of ways to explore the world, from a glider to a jumping rabbit, a flying dragon to a robot duck swimming in lava. It's small and pretty ugly (it's a 3DS game duh), but it has a lot of offer, and it's definitely less linear than usual.
Dungeons are also fairly solid, and they're mercifully short, even late game. The optional ones are all the same style though, so that's pretty sad.
A very good surprise, that would have been a cool RPG back in the PS1 days, and it really feels pretty unique.
On the other hand the story falters a bit near the end, where the early episodic format works very well, the bad guy is just not interesting enough to hold the plot.
... but the game also only lasts 30h or so, so it does not drag on, and does not try to piss you off by being super generous with checkpoints and never forcing you to grind.
And the music is somehow made by the bloke that did FFXIII's. Cool, but weird.
FuRyu definitely has some interesting games. I need to play Crystar at some point too.

That's so weird, have you tried playing different levels? For some reason the music in the first stages is so low that it may seem it's not playing...
I've maxed out the volume in the game and no music seems to output. I am gonna ssume the game loads the .ogg files. In which case...maybe I need a .ogg decoder? I can run .ogg using Windows Media player but maybe there is particular files needed for proper association?
I am lost here, I really want to get the music running properly but no dice.

What's the go to VR titles right now?
I'm well aware of Beat Sabre an Superhot VR but not much else and I'm mindlessly adding more things to my wishlist as I see them right now.

Pistol Whip is real fun, Arizona Sunshine is a neat little zombie shooter, and Lone Echo looks like a fun space exploration/horror game but I think it's Oculus only.
You can get Arizona Sunshine and four other VR games (Rock Band, Killing Floor VR, Sprint Vector, and Star Trek Bridge Crew) with the purchase of a game in the Green Man +5 sale. I got R6 Siege for like $7.50 and got the 5 free games with it.

I know you said dont quote a steam guide, but youre still having trouble and this worked fine for me on my first try.
Steam Community :: Guide :: How I play Quake in the Current Year (2023 update: Use Ironwail or Quakespasm-Spiked instead of Quakespasm)
Quick Current Year Update: For single-player, I now recommend using Ironwail instead of the good old Quakespasm. Ironwail is a fork of the Quakespasm engine, incorporating enhancements from Quake
I was taking a look at VR games since I bought the Rift. Any opinions on Sairento VR, Windlands 2, Transpose and Pixel Ripped? They all look kinda cool.
Aigh with black friday deals going up
What is a good 5 tb external hdd offer that is on us sites?

So I only just realised that when you exit a game and all the screenshots are there in a row, you can right click one of them, hit manage screenshots and it brings up the screenshot uploader like you still get in the in game overlay.
I know Bestbuy has the WD 5tb for $90. 12tb for $180.
Raw Data is a game I always like to mention. It has some of the best skill-based VR action gameplay out there, and much more of a true learning curve (in a positive sense) than many of its competitors.
Seems to be out of stock when i checked. I will try again later while ogged in hope it doesnt expire too soon.
What exactly are we counting as an old shooter here?
Still no banner art tho
What, you weren't enjoying the "placeholder boxart" cover?

I am looking at Xcom 2 as my big December game and plan to play it with War of the Chosen. now my question is how I need to interpret HLTB listings. According to it Xcom 2 needs abit more than 30 hours and WotC needs 34 hours.
Anyone who played it can tell me if the WotC time is just for the expansion and additive to the base games time or if WotC „just“ alters a normal playthrough of Xcom 2 with only a few hours added.

Steam: Pistol Whip, Windlands 2. Gorn, Blade & Sorcery, Pavlov (CoD), Onward (Battlefield), Audica, Airtone, BoxVR, Blasters of the Universe, Space Pirate Trainer, Climbey, Budget Cuts, Compound, Cosmic Trip, Dreadhalls, Elite Dangerous, Everspace, Final Assault, Fujii, Gun Club, In Death, Iron Wolf (submarine simulator), Jet Island, Moss, Karange Chronicles. Raw Data, Red Matter, Sairento, Until You Fall, ZomDay (CoD zombies).
Oculus : Asgard's Wrath, Lone Echo, Edge of Nowhere, Wilson's Heart, Stormland.
All very good imo. There are a bunch more, but those are on the top of my head.

Steam :: Steam News :: Top Releases of October 2019
We're back with another round of popular monthly releases. With this list, we'll be looking at the Top 20 products released in October.
What's the consensus on State of Decay? Every same I add it to the cart but inevitably end up removing it. Right now it's pretty cheap on HB but it's not really a question of how expensive it is and more if it's worth the time investment.
I didn't have a single problem finishing the remaster last year tbh. No crashes at all.

well, a bit earlier than that, i guess ... more like PS2 ... and even more so - PC stuff from back then

you're welcome
but yeah - that's probably the reason why there's such a big difference between reviews and user reviews
Ok, you might don't know this but there's currently a Ban-wave happening on Steam, once a week Valve bans some devs/pubs and their content gets removed from the platform, normally this means like 20 games get banned/week, today's ban-wave is at 400 games and it doesn't seem to stop anytime soon tonight, it's probably the biggest one yet, I have never seen so many games deleted at once.
The number just keeps going up. 519 apps have been banned as of this moment.Ok, you might don't know this but there's currently a Ban-wave happening on Steam, once a week Valve bans some devs/pubs and their content gets removed from the platform, normally this means like 20 games get banned/week, today's ban-wave is at 400 games and it doesn't seem to stop anytime soon tonight, it's probably the biggest one yet, I have never seen so many games deleted at once.
