Understand its a one man project, but with the declining popularity of MS Windows requesting a Linux version of Nomad Sculpt to be made. Currently using Windows version of Nomad Sculpt but plan to migrate to Linux and want to avoid using a compatibility layer to run it.

I can second this, because windows is declining and half the user base is set to go to Linux while others will exodus to mac, it means that more companies will have to consider Linux compatibility to even get access to the other half of the user base. This is already a thing in Europe and it is also happening in the US.

I just wanted to say ditto. I’ve been keeping an eye on Nomad for a while but I’ve completely moved away from Windows, so a Linux version would be most welcome - especially if released as a Flatpak!

I’m testing the windows version on Linux under Wine, through Lutris launcher. It works really well, it doesn’t suffer from the same issues with the pen tablet input pressure which ZBrush and other software have when runing within WINE. It’s got a small issue when using a dual monitor setup though, where the input is basically halvened across the width of the screen, but disabling the second monitor just takes care of the issue.
I’m definitely pondering ditching ZBrush for my home projects in favor of Nomad already, with this solution… Just make it native Linux and I’ll go everywhere on the web and IRL advertising it like crazy!
Seriously, native Linux port please.
flatpak run –branch=stable --arch=x86_64 –command=nomad –file-forwarding=com.nomad.sculpt
Look how sexy the launch command is!!
