DeusEx: MD Mesa 18.2.X glitch
edgecrusher Nov 18, 2018
Hello fellow Linux gamers.
I'm experiencing this weird glitch in Deus Ex: MD when screen is gradually filling with black pixels. It is only related to 3D rendering since HUD and menu renders fine.
I had Mesa Padoka Stable installed at the time (18.2.4). I have replaced it with default version (18.0.5) and now it works fine. Also, I'm getting about 20 FPS more now with Mesa 18.0.5.

Hope it helps someone with same issue.

Cheers.

It was happening on 18.2.3 and 18.2.4, so it seems it's related to that major version. I didn't try 18.3.x
I'm gonna use 18.0.5 until I finish Deus Ex :)
