@Bill Yes I triple boot Ubuntu/Win10/macOS 10.9 with Grub. However I only boot win/mac to recompile my stuff. Anyway if I buy RF8 it will be for VR, which surely takes time to get supported in Wine.

While I still have that virus plagued os installed, I prefer to not boot it anymore. Wine looks like a very small fix. I run Aerofly in Wine with my old controller, why shouldn't Rf8 do as well?

Thanks Ryan. I should get a Samsung Odyssey or maybe a upcoming Vive Pro. Could you make it work in Wine on Ubuntu? https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=32056 Is it possible to get a refund on Steam, if I run into problems with controller etc.?

no need for backups and always up to date game automagically.

Is SteamOS supported? Anyway I might buy it if: - it works on Ubuntu either native or via Wine - I can use my old 3.5 controller - I can use my old Great Planes Pitts S2s - it works with any steamVR device Thanks for letting me know what of the above to expect working.

oh glad you did. anyone got the controller working with virtualbox or other free app?

yes virtualbox, wine etc surely works but without controller

Great, many thanks. Tried it yesterday and wonder how to add heavy lead like the other Mistral version.

Hi how to change the Mistral landing flaps from throttle to the turning knob on the transmitter? Thanks

Ahm yes you made me try my Realflight controller in x-plane and it works. So I had a look in synaptic and installed crrcsim. Works perfectly, just had a nice gliding flight on a sea shore with animated waves.- Works great out of the box, didn't try my controller before.:)

Which one, name? Steamboxes are not even released by now.

I have RF4 since I bought a Great Planes Pitts S2S. I also have a Hangar 9 P-51 and both are in RF. The Pitts seller back then pointed me to the training possibility, else I would not have bothered a Sim supporting Windows only. So without my Pitts I would, if at all, use probably ...

ur the official forum spammer? again bye bye

I would buy a RF7 with a wrapper. Even better if they would officially support Wine/playonlinux. Should not be a big deal at all, I guess much less work than for a wrapper. For now I'm heavily bored to boot Windows only for a quick RF4 flight...

Ah yea I remember one being infamous as performance/Quality was even lower than with Wine. Forgot which game. Not many, maybe one or two. :p Again bye bye ...
