I tested yesterday evening with Vega56 and the patched / hotfixed wine master. I cant use fullscreen due to the loose of input sometimes but windowed it worked. I didnt get a single freeze in about 3 hrs. Will do more testing the next days.

Ubuntu 17.10, mainline kernel 4.15-rc4, Mesa 17.4 Oibaf ppa.

@maspeber: that's likely the game 'freeze' I'm seeing too.

@Shmerl: can you easily compile a later kernel to test?

For reference I installed Win10 on a second disk I had lying around - on Ultra settings (HairWorks off) I'm seeing a solid 60fps @3440x1440 and 100fps @1080p. There's also no slowdown in FPS in town areas - it's very consistent - and the GPU load is showing 100%.

Quoting: libgradev@Shmerl: can you easily compile a later kernel to test?

According to @lod above, newer kernel doesn't help it. Did you have a chance to test it with your RX 480 to confirm the freeze?

I'll update bug report once that will be more clear.

By the way. I saw somewhere that Vega got better GPU reset support, so may be that's why it's not causing a hard freeze but only soft freezes for some?

I dont get a freeze where I had to reboot the OS (like the old wine builds e.g. near hanging man tree). Since 2.22 on sometimes (e.g. after a quick travel) the screen stands still in fullscreenmode and dont accept input from keyboard or mouse. I can alt-tab to the terminal and then if I move the mouse I look around in TW3.

With the compiled master and the patches/hotfixes Shmerl mentioned, I played in windowed mode without an issue (despite the performance) for at least three hours. I will do more testing the next days :)

Did you try the save with rotfiends? It's not about how long you play, but about specific effects causing some issues.

So far I posted in the bugs, that on Vega this freeze is not reproducible. Feel free to add your hardware and driver details there.

sorry, got a freeze with "Moderhäuten" ("Rotfiend")

I played yesterday another two hours without any issue. I fought ghouls, Alghouls, Harpies, "Verschlinger" (similar to Moderhäuten - Rotfiend). Than I wanted to be sure and try your save. I cant read it (I play on GOTY and I think the save game isnt compatible) and than I ported to "Reuseninsel" (the Island with the tower where Y do Keiras (?) Quest with the "Pestae"). I fought 6 Moderhäute and got with the last one the freeze :( I was able to alt-tab to my terminal and exit wine.

Sorry, I play on German so I dont know the English names - but "Moderhäute" should be "Rotfiends".

It is a GOTY save (GOG release).

I think it allows exiting on Vega, because it supports better GPU reset than Polaris. But at least we know now, that freeze still happens. Can you please comment with your findings in both bugs?

This is a great topic, and thanks to all of you who works on this.
I decided to test it with the GOG version 1.31.
- i5-2500K @ 4.2 GHz
- GTX 780 @ 993 MHz
- Kernel 4.14.5
- Nvidia Blob 384.98
- Wine-staging 2.21

Like so many have reported, performance is very weak i have between ~12 and ~18 fps with most of the settings on MAX (HBAO+, Vsync Off).
I have ~20 and ~26 fps with settings on LOW.
My GPU utilization is around ~70% and my CPU ~50%.
It's frustrating when it runs pretty well on Windows. (The last time i tried, about 2 years ago). Except the poor performance, the game looks nice and no bugs or missing textures at the moment.

So it's the Nvidia's fault here and no workarounds ?

Anyway, my next Graphic Card will be an AMD one as i said. ^_^
