This affects everyone using a 600 series or newer nvidia GPU on Linux(sorry, just discovered the thread as I don't frequent the XR forums). nVidia's shader compiler became more strict over time and this issue is obviously just a typo which older versions of the shader compiler let slip which is why nobody noticed until nvidia got more strict,(pre-600 series gpus are only supported by a driver package where the shader compiler is still more lenient). It's just that there are very few people still playing Rebirth while using this forum.Alan Phipps wrote: ↑Mon, 21.

Re: Linux support thread
Thanks. The devs have acknowledged the issue and will seek to correct it in any future XR update or hotfix.

Re: Linux support thread
If the X rebirth demo version doesn't work then you can even expect it from the purchase version. How to get shaders working.
Demo version.
A fatal error has occurred and X cannot recover:
Shader::Compile(tag.f) '0(610) : error C0151: EOF inside comment'
Version: 4.00 - Code revision: 208346
Please inform EGOSOFT GmbH technical support.
Using Ubuntu 18.04.6 LTS Nvidia GTX 770, 470.103.01 drivers. 8 gb ram (8 gb swap)
by the way: X4 foundation 4.20 version working, it has some bugs. But working.
test log say ERROR: ld.so: object '~/.steam/ubuntu12_32/gameoverlayrenderer.so' from LD_PRELOAD cannot be preloaded (wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32): ignored.

Re: Linux support thread
Two years have passed, and this bug is still there. No, thats not an incomplete file: its an error in shader file: viewtopic.php?p=4979651#p4979651. There are even a patch in subsequent comments.
Re: Linux support thread
I only noticed it yesterday for the Steam version: My joysticks didn't show up any more. It worked just fine before and I still have a valid keymapping config from the last time.
I disabled Steam Controllers (Input) for this game via override and all started showing up again. I guess Steam made a virtual gamepad out of it (AGAIN ) hiding the real thing resulting in zero found joysticks.
Note: "Real" joysticks as in with plenty of buttons, not gamepad controllers or something.
