[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 0/2] Allow redeclaration of GLSL builtins; fixes Dying Light and Dead Island Definitive Edition

[Benedikt Schemmer]

Hi all,

Dying Light really works (Radeon RX460 4GB, Ubuntu 17.04, Mesa git 
patches applied plus some minor changes that i have locally to get rid 
of compiler warnings).
I did have to jump through some additional hoops to get it working:

Dying Light only launches from within Steam, Launch Options for me need 
to be
MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=4.4 MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=440

Also two libraries were missing (there are no packages in the 17.04 
repository so I had to install them manually)

I used

find -name "*.so" -exec ldd {} \; | grep not

from the games directory to find the missing dependencies. links for the 
packages below, glew needs to be renamed because the game expects a 
different version.

http://packages.ubuntu.com/yakkety/libglew1.13

sudo ln -sf /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLEW.so.1.13.0 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libGLEW.so.1.10

http://packages.ubuntu.com/de/xenial/amd64/libpng12-0/download

After that the biggest problem was that I died within the first few 
minutes because I havent played in months ;)

Big thanks you've made my day,
Benedikt
