Clang is incredibly picky on a lot of things. Also just because OS specific features are abstracted doesn't reduce work, you still need to implement code for each platform. And just because mobile uses those rendering interfaces, the renderers are still going to be handled slightly differently for each platform, plus there's different drivers. It does seem more reachable with it being ported to mobile, but it is definitely still challenging. The biggest thing being the middleware.

Ah, thanks for the heads up. I wasn't very familiar with the PS4 platform. Is it the same version as the Linux toolchain?

I don't see how something working in Wine has anything to do with actually porting the game.

Just because it uses UE4 doesn't mean it can be easily ported. There is middleware that needs to be ported and C++ code that needs to be cleaned up because Clang much more picky than MSVC or maybe even rewritten because of OS specific code. The devs will also have to make sure that the rendering APIs used on Linux are on par with the renderers used on Windows and that there are no bugs or shaders that won't work well on OpenGL/Vulkan.

All of this for an OS with very, very low marketshare.

I want Fortnite on Linux too, but you really can't just say "haha its so easy lolll just port it"

I've started to document the sound effect cvars a bit better and it will improve in future betas as I do more testing on DSP effects. Hopefully this will lead to not only compatibility with surround sound systems like the ones you've been describing, but also greater overall quality of sounds and DSP effects.

If you'd like to know more about where the DSP values come from before I document them fully, you can check out the dsp_presets.txt file.

I'm not sure why disabling DSP is necessary for surround sound. Shouldn't it be enough to only disable the spatial DSP effects with a delay?

dsp_enhance_stereo 0
dsp_spatial 0
dsp_facingaway 30 (or 0)

And I guess spatializing every frame would be helpful too:

snd_spatialize_roundrobin 0

I'm not entirely sure what I'm supposed to do on my side. Shouldn't yttrium's viewmodels work if you properly install them?

comp or maxperformance

you can also try setting -dxlevel 81, remember to remove it after the first launch

That term could mean a lot of things. Could you specify what you mean?

6.5.0-b8 https://github.com/mastercoms/mastercomfig/releases/tag/6.5.0-b8

I don't think any values need to be changed for surround sound.

Make sure you remove -dxlevel after the first launch. Also I would recommend removing the fullscreen and w, h launch options when you remove dxlevel.

badcpu is only for two thread CPUs. You have a quad core. Don't use badcpu.

What are your launch options?

What mastercomfig preset did you use? Also what are your launch options?

I'm not sure what that would really entail. What kind of sound does TF2 need to provide for Windows 10 to be able to use virtualized surround sound?

Nope

host_thread_mode 0

I don't understand what your problem is. What are you trying to accomplish exactly?

And could you please share your full network settings?
