Wow, that's production-grade code :-). Simple and beautiful!

Quoting: ShmerlThough now there is a problem with invisible monsters fix. It causes a freeze again :(

I can confirm this. Monsters are visible now, but the whole system froze after a while... :/

Quoting: ShmerlFinally, mountain path scene renders correctly without missing surfaces! Same "caves" fix helped.



With distorted monsters fix, now this new freeze is the only major issue left it seems.

All those fixes and still at a good 41 fps I see :-)

Looks like a fully working Witcher 3 on Linux is not too far away.

Can you comment in the bug please and specify your hardware / driver?

Thanks! Splitting into functions helps making ad-hoc variants of the script with some steps commented out. It comes handy once in a while.

Hi Shmerl, thx for the Mesa 17.4 testing and the bugreport. I tested yesterday a little with 4.15-rc1 and Mesa 17.4 with a patched Wine 2.21 (3 staging patches and patch for invisible Textures). I had a lot of fun. I played with 2560x1080 with middle to high settings. I made the main quest with the witches in the swamp. I noticed that my fps drops a lot if there are light sources e.g. in the cut scene with the witches I got 50-60 fps if there are no candles visible. The fps dropped immediately to around 30 if there came candles into the picture.

What are your settings for the screenshot at Kaer Morhen? I wanna test and compare the performance.

Thx for the quick answer. Very funny that your RX 480 is loaded to nearly 100%. My best load yesterday was max 80%. Most time it stay around 70%. I will post later a screenshot with the same settings like yours.

How soon does the crash occur and does it occur everywhere? Or does it only happen when there is a situation that is handled by the invisible models hackpatch?

It happens only around those previously affected monsters, and not right a way, but some seconds after you approach them.
