Quoting: pete910I keep trying UT too, All I get is weird graphic bugs, fine in menu. Soon as you start looks like the scene is been smudged...

Very peculiar . That's on a 290x with fglrx(14.12)
Try with & without the "-opengl4" bit on the end. I get what you describe with -opengl4 and a radeon 6950, but it works fine with a kaveri.
Just hard locks when I try without the -opengl4

Well it's complete garbage on a AMD gpu. :(

Well least it start I suppose :whistle:

I've set mine to all options to off/low even dropped the rez down to 1280x900 , Still unplayable outside.

4790k
290x
16Gb
SSD

Stock clocked.

I went against the grain and installed it in windows(I know...)
1440p all Max/On bar the Nvidia bits, draw distance middle.
90 ish ! That's outside too.

I don't expect *nix to match that but ...
I know AMD is bad performance wise under nix compared to nvidia but I will say that I feel its the game/dev's on this one.

Well the good news is now us AMD GPU guys can play! (Patch 1.4 released today.)

Down side is even on a 290x + 4790k the performance is erm, whats the word... Crap!

Thing is. I not convinced its the GPU/Driver that's at fault.

Edit, They have disabled the steam overlay it seems. No idea what fps is

Quoting: STiATNever played BL2 or The battle for Wesnoth, but 0AD and Civ5: well earned.
There's a reason why BL2 won ;)

Seriously, get it. Presuming it your type of game that is.

Only tested the Talos principle 2 days ago, If first impresions are anything to go be I think it will be epic. The graphics are stunning too. Performance seems good as well on the AMD card I have(290x)

Egosoft's X Rebirth Actively Being Ported To Linux
13 Jan 2015 at 11:58 pm UTC

Yea! About time!!!!.

Sunk many an hour into the LGP port. Stopped after getting a amd card as it failed to start. When egosoft redid the x3:r port started to play again via steam, as well as X3:TC/AP. X3:R is still my fav.
