v2.3.0: Linux support and many camera-related fixes

4 hours ago

PLEASE BACK UP YOUR SAVE ON STANDALONE BEFORE UPDATING.

This update modified the key signature for the Android build. It is to ensure that it will be more stable in the future. I did my best to also keep your save but there is a slight possibility it disappears, especially if you deny file access.

I have built an AppImage for Linux that is in early testing. It runs on SteamOS, Ubuntu 24.04+, Mint 22+, Fedora 40+ and Arch. It has been tested on CachyOS with WiVRn (Monado). Requires Vulkan GPU drivers, FUSE (likely included with your distro, can work around this with --appimage-extract-and-run), and a VR runtime.

A user also sent a pull request this week, asking to merge some fixes with my repo. It has a number of very helpful fixes that I've been meaning to get to and I also cleaned up the third person camera.

Additions:

• Added native x86-64 build for Linux

• Added directional audio

• Added an option to rotate the game camera with Link to keep him in frame when 3rd person is enabled

Fixes:

• Fixed the jitter when coming to a stop

• Link turns immediately instead of rotating in first person when moving, lessening the delay between the joystick and movement

• Camera faces the right way in cutscenes and when they end

• Lighting is done properly from the sun/moon and the headset view, without moving too much. It should not change when Link moves anymore.

• Fixed 3rd person camera rotating around Link

• Sun-glare dim is toggleable in settings

The PR was a pretty big help and I would like to properly credit him. Here is his GitHub: https://github.com/danieltobey
