Quoting: JudasIscariotYou can actually use winetricks as Austin English implemented the ability to turn CSMT off and on in the registry. Here's the initial commit:

https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/commit/3f50cf9e6b142b1ed31739f7b7f14bfd07ce7ae0 [External Link]

and the follow-up commit to correct a bug within the initial commit:
https://github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/commit/35eb15ff45656165dff5e9e173ec5d162144ee2c [External Link]

Here's how the CSMT on/off setting looks in winetricks:

Thanks to winetricks for make more simple things for regular user, is more important most users can used wine

CSMT register dont affect performance for now, but can usefull for solve flickering problem in some titles

In this wine version add more d3d11 work as them added arb_tesselation_shader extension and other things case make blits asynchronous by default

View video on youtube.com

Some interesting case is bayonetta, runs better in this wine version and flickering is reduced considerably compared with 2.6 vanilla

View video on youtube.com

However make work in wine vanilla is a bit tricky: need have virtual desktop in same desktop resolution

You must know in which order stay each option of main menu for can change values without see main menu in some cases

In other things donat enikeev csmt patch is rejected (this patch add csmt option to graphics tab in wine cfg, usefull if user dont know much about registry)

In this wine version solve some bugs case ducktales remastered, before appears corrupted graphics specially characters

View video on youtube.com

But in other things steam stay affected if you dont use dwrite as native or disable, steam dont begins

Another side effect of before situation is steam overlay dont work in this version, using native dont show overlay

In CSMT related as other said dont stay completly implemented, this is confirmed for stefan dosinger in phoronix forums

Note that there are still some parts missing compared to my old code.

In particular, resource maps are still synchronous, so most games won't see a performance gain yet.

It's coming, please be patient :-) .

The existing code is likely to help with games that needed StrictDrawOrdering=enabled already.

However using CSMT in wined3d registry as dword with 1 value solve certain problems case flickering in senran kagura shinovi versus, bayonetta

Maybe other titles can be affected

Quoting: Guest

Quoting: mrdeathjrHoly shit works (need for speed hot pursuit show both cores at 99%, normaly only use 1 core to 99%) :woot:

Nice!
Do you think this will fix WOW only using 1 core too?

Maybe but at simple seek test various titles and performance remains equal

However in henri verbeet multi-threaded command stream implementation commit appears more information about performance issue

https://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/commit/e97ed10d09a94cae9bd449f297813a0f0722a378

wined3d: Introduce a multi-threaded command stream implementation.

The primary purpose of this patch is to serialise draws
from multiple threads, without the overhead of extra flushes
that "StrictDrawOrdering" imposes.

With additional work, offloading state processing and driver
overhead to a separate thread may also allow for improved
performance in some applications, but that's not a goal of this patch.

Quoting: ShmerlYep, that's it. It should be like this:

csmt_on.reg

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Direct3D] 
"csmt"=dword:1

And I removed that staging dll redirect. It's pointless with this.

Holy shit works (need for speed hot pursuit show both cores at 99%, normaly only use 1 core to 99%) :woot:

In my case add CSMT in wined3d as dword as your said with 1 in value

Many thanks

Update: in hot pursuit use both cores at 99% but performance remains equal

^_^
