Quoting: Guestplayable and playable without texture corruptions and other issues caused by running a game in a mesa environment are two very different things

What nox said, give us some examples. The games I usually play on my system doesn't have texture corruption, so it's difficult for me to answer something that I don't experiment.

I have been using Mesa with AMDGPU drivers for more than two years by now (R9 380 and R9 580), I experienced game crash or hangs (and most of the times was a game fault) but I don't recall having texture corruption.

Last game I was having that was Insugency/dying light and Day of infamy but ironically on the gtx1080. Was one of the reasons that finally made me jump back to AMD/Mesa

Quoting: Mountain ManAh, crap, and here I just started a new game of Stellaris this past weekend.

It's my dream to one day complete a full run of a Paradox game before the next major patch is released. :dizzy:

May be lucky and still compatible with this patch

Edit :

No they ain't :'(

Quoting: pete910All those work fine with mesa with AMD, Expecting intel's IGP to run them well is a little unfair. Lets be honest, Intel make good CPU's but plain suck at the graphics side of things.

There is currently one game that has issue for me with mesa (I have a fairly good library too) and that is Dying light !

It refuses to work with mesa on anything other than Ubuntu for some weird reason :dizzy:

It has been working for me since Mesa 17.3 (I ended the game months ago).

On my launch options I have this: MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=4.5 MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=450 %command%

Check if that helps you!

Don't work for those not on *buntu distros. But thanks for the suggestion

Quoting: GuestA lot of ppl seem confused about what the patch changes, *shrugs*. Still plays fine for me, and I'm really looking forward to this new content, even if it is hateful DLC ~~

At least with Pardox if the host has the DLC all get to use/play it when in multi.

Quoting: GuestDeus ex mankind divided
Alien isolation
Grid autosport
Middle earth shadow of mordor

Those are a few that say on the steam page intel and amd are not supported so if amd and intel do work on those games now then feral has failed to communicate that

Quoting: nox

Quoting: Gueststuff that came before feral started getting involved with the mesa driver remember their was a time when mesa was not even supported and games requirements were nvidia only

Quoting: x_wing

Quoting: Guestmesa is a life saver for intel and amd users however i still stand by what i always said older games are still going to run bad in mesa due to being mostly optimized for nvidia gpus

Olders games like...? The big titles started to come Linux since SteamOS born (and this is quite recent), so there aren't very old titles that I can think on (out of the ones that runs on wine).

I'm very interested in what specific feral games you are talking about. The oldest feral game that I own is Tomb Raider, which works flawlessly.

Note: There are a few games that are known to have issues on mesa, but those are exceptions and - to what I know - more often than not the cause of bad programming.

Am not sure where you are getting the notion of older tiles(Pre steam?) don't run well with mesa either. Doom/UT99-2004/ETQW ect all run fine for me.

Quoting: EhvisI don't think porting OpenGL/Vulkan games would provide a challenge worthy of Marc! That would probably border on trivial.

This may come across as a dig at feral which is not but, The only game that has shown what Vulkan can do is Doom tbh. So yes while openGL/Vulkan may seem trivial actually doing Vulkan well seems to be a bit of an art only a few can manage.

I'm not sure you got the point. Porting OpenGL/Vulkan games is no challenge. Apart from some input/sound stuff, there's just nothing to do (yes, slight simplification, I know). Making them is a whole other story.

Think you are failing to see mine tbh
