hey, here's a question for linux people. I know people run stuff in Wine and w/e, but I do in fact have a completely legal copy of Windows 10
How capable are VMs? Would I be able to, say, run Clip Studio in a VM with working tablet support, more or less identical to the native Windows experience? Would that require a massively power PC?
@ShugoWah I don't think there are any free VM software that let you pass through USB like you would need to have the tablet driver work inside the VM.
There is a tablet stack in the Linux world that, while referred to as Wacom support, supports a lot more tablet brands and is normalized over the udev interface. Krita uses it and I've heard it works fine. Wine probably supports Wintab and Windows Ink via it as well.
@shaderphantom Ah yeah I was surprised with how easily and effectively my tablet worked in Mint, I'm just not super keen on adding "learn a completely new illustration program" to the already steep learning curve of switching, haha
@ShugoWah FWIW though, I would consider keeping a Windows install handy anyway. Just reminding, any game with branded anti-cheat is likely to never work in Wine. Fortnite is a high profile example.
@ShugoWah If Wine can do Wintab and Windows Ink using the udev device, then CSP should work fine, is what I'm saying.
