You need to open bug report about those issues. Don't expect a fix without report.

I would have never guessed. Thank god you are here!
Sometimes stating an obvious is needed. Filling a quality bug reports is very important to open source projects.

Quoting: GuestIn Burnout Paradise, the car drivers and motorcycle driver’s head are still missing + sometimes big artifacts in the junkyard (game still works great otherwise).

There is no drivers in cars in Burnout Paradise. That's why adding bikers was kind of strange. But, those are supposed to have heads.

Quoting: GuestMirror’s Edge is still running at ~15 FPS even with Physx disabled and all settings on low.

In Burnout Paradise, the car drivers and motorcycle driver’s head are still missing + sometimes big artifacts in the junkyard (game still works great otherwise).

Both issues are also present in wine-staging 1.7.38.

Hi in my case works very good many places above 35fps to 45fps (sometimes 59fps)

I leave this examples using wine 1.7.39 (vanilla) with nvidia drivers 346.47

This using ffmpeg low latency high performance nvenc preset

Eh, strange :-| … I have more powerful hardware (i5 / GTX 660), same nvidia driver. I tried a few things again but it’s still slow. And the Steam overlay does not work so I can’t see the exact FPS.

Strange in my case overlay works since 1.7.38, nvidia drivers stay correctly installed (direct rendering stay enable???) something more in my case use xfce (before using kde but have fps loss, around 20 to 30% depending game)

However this situation can happen still using same wine, distribution, drivers and desktop enviroment

The GOG-version of "Indiana Jones and the Emperors Tomb" is not working with WINE 1.7.39. Especially not the version from PlayOnLinux from my testings. I just even have problems with the menu and much objects are not shown at all. Can't even start a new game. So I would not say the game is working well with 1.7.39!

It's a very good news for people playing Windows Steam games on Linux with wine.
It was a very annoying bug that crash game as soon as you press a key when Steam overlay option was enabled. This bug was one year old!!! Big thanks to WIne team!
