I am just now exploring the use of AGS with Linux, so this is my first stop. I'm using Ubuntu 14.04 and I have a couple of questions.

What is the difference between AGS Engine and AGS Editor as far as Linux is concerned. What is the actual process of creating a game. Are there native builds of AGS Engine and Editor for Linux? Is it all Wine Emulation? So basically, it's a start for me. What should I do. What should I download? In the forums, in the development section, there are several links, but they detail the dev process of the components, so it's a little confusing.

If you develop on Linux (make games), what can you tell me?

I'm trying to find AGS games that are natively at 1920x1080 resolution without upscaling or downscaling. It would be great if someone can link titles in here so I can download and try them out. Even if it's commercial.

Ok, excellent thanks everyone. I'll post another question in one of the other forums about what 1920x1080 games are available, so i can check them out.

devs - Keep up the great work.

That's great news - I'll be looking for the download - can you tell me where it will be. There are several places in the forum I noticed download links.

cat - It will be a long time before I actually get anything done, but I'm making larger pixel thin graphics. It's nothing spectacular, but at 1920x1080 it's very smooth and in my opinion easy on the eyes. Also, are you serious? Or do you mean you use a laptop. It's hard to imagine less than 1920x1080 monitors today.

Another question - Will 1920x1080 impact game speed? I know there is a DirectX setting. Will I want to use DirectDraw? Or do you guys have a thread where you discuss performance issues?

Just a quick question. I'm jumping in and out of here, and learning on youtube all things AGS. I know custom resolutions are available in test versions. Since I can't put technical skills into this, can someone tell me approximately when there will be a stable release, where I can use a screen resolution of 1920x1080. The resolution is an absolute must for me, so I'm definitely willing to wait it out. Any info on this would be very useful to me. Thank you!
