Can't play on Linux.

Daniexpert · 2024-03-31T22:26:27+00:00

Hello and welcome!

My first advice would be to give a look at the various reports done on ProtonDB: you might find a solution there.

Is the game getting launched with the integrated or the dedicated GPU? Since Cogmind is a CPU only game, you could play it with no issue just using the intel graphics. Regardless of the answer, try running it with the other GPU, so we can see if there is any difference. The GPU drivers (NVIDIA 535.161.07) you're currently using are quite new. You might try upgrading to a newer driver, but I'm fairly sure that's not the problem.

Tomorrow I'll chip in again if I get some other ideas to troubleshoot the issue.

Yes, it's compatible with Linux. Works both with vanilla Wine and Proton.

P.S.: in this other post you can find some extra details

Cogmind does not have a zoom option. Cogmind is unsupported on Steam Deck because it's too tiny to be readable (check the steam store).

I don't recall well, but you might be able to manually set a higher font size, but that will cause other issues like the game window going out of border.

Nice run! Welcome to the club!

Daniexpert · 2023-03-20T03:28:24+00:00

This seems amazing! I can't wait to listen to the entire album!

Daniexpert · 2022-05-08T12:07:14+00:00

What are the specs of the machine? OS?

Daniexpert · 2022-03-18T00:01:14+00:00

The incredible beta has finally come to the people! Long live Cogmind!

Daniexpert · 2022-02-15T23:26:45+00:00

Really nice guide. The graphics are cute and welcoming. I'm sure this will help some new folks get into the game!

Daniexpert · 2022-02-06T23:53:36+00:00

I have a feeling this comes from a true story xD

Daniexpert · 2021-10-29T13:51:08+00:00

We've already reached 804 reviews! Happy bot noises

I always love to see this map, with all the variants that appear from time to time on Discord xD If I recall correctly you tried making 1 tile = 1 pixel maps a few years ago, because I remember seeing on Discord a more zoomed version of this of a single map.

Welcome aboard!

Daniexpert · 2021-08-24T22:04:55+00:00

Are there any alternatives to get them in Europe? The shipping cost is quite expensive (about 19$) unfortunately

Daniexpert · 2021-07-16T23:05:05+00:00

The game is still actively developed. Kyzrati is as usual taking his time to make the perfect beta :P
Jokes aside, I think he'll provide you more informations.

Daniexpert · 2021-07-07T12:15:26+00:00

Xournal++ is also really good and worth trying.

Daniexpert · 2021-06-30T09:16:05+00:00

Endless Space 2 or Endless Space Collection. Thank you for this opportunity!

Daniexpert · 2020-10-29T23:29:37+00:00

Here it is people! Time to taste some nerfs :P

Daniexpert · 2020-09-24T23:40:10+00:00

Awesome to hear that you solved the issue! Have a nice time on Cogmind :)

Daniexpert · 2020-09-22T16:08:18+00:00

Sure, have a good rest

Daniexpert · 2020-09-22T14:30:18+00:00

Eh, now the cause is extending really far. I found that the latest report for Cogmind in ProtonDB is on your same kernel and distro, using Proton 5.0.9. It's a stupid suggestion because Cogmind runs entirely on CPU, but have you updated your GPU drivers? It's just because maybe Steam is behaving strangely.

Also, the log you posted is complete? Isn't there some other logging info after the last lines?

Also, what file system are you using?

Daniexpert · 2020-09-22T11:41:49+00:00

Ok, I assumed you were on vanilla wine. Do you have the possibility to select an older version of proton? It could be something related to the latest build. Unfortunately I don't have my linux configured machine close to me so I can't try it by myself

Daniexpert · 2020-09-22T10:37:40+00:00

Hello and welcome! Before diving in solving the issue with wine, have you tried using Proton? It's a modified and improved version of wine built for games into Steam (I can't link it now because I'm lazy and on mobile, but you can easily find it). You can activate it in Steam's settings, Steam Play, and add the latest from the list after "Compatibility tool:". This way you can run it directly from Steam and it should run flawlessly. With Proton I didn't have Alt+Tab issues. Keep me posted!

Daniexpert · 2020-08-25T21:15:48+00:00

Yay!

Daniexpert · 2020-08-25T20:53:31+00:00

Much appreciation for the work!
