Title: Linux Version No longer Maintained - Can't Change Resolution On Linux?
Post by: JeZxLee on January 04, 2023, 02:09:01 pm
Hi,

The Linux version seems to not be maintained anymore?
Also I can't change resolution on Linux version?
(mouse cursor gets stuck when changing resolution on Linux)

Running game on Linux Mint 21.1 Cinnamon 64Bit.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Jesse

I can change resolution on linux mint 19... are you using the latest linux version of OXC? 

Are you having problems with adjusting geoscape scale, battlescape scale, or display resolution?
I usually leave geoscape scale and battlescape scale alone.

Maybe try windowed mode instead of full screen.   I've had problems with full screen mode.

Hi,

I am running the most recent Linux build of OpenXCOM.
I am having issues with windowed resolution changing.
When I select different windowed resolution, the mouse cursor get stuck and I can't confirm?
(after some time the original windowed resolution is set(

Maybe try changing your system resolution with your video card, and then try changing the OXC res again?

Hi,

That did nothing...

The Linux version has not been updated since: 2021-06-11 ?
Are there instructions somewhere to build from source on Linux?

If you would be fine with OXC Extended, Linux snapshots are built on a daily basis. I use them myself and work just fine. Here: https://lxnt.wtf/oxem/#/Extended (the "bionic" packages)

You can try building OXCE in Linux instead:
