This game is really nice! I play sometimes with my wife in a CO-OP mode :)

Quoting: YoRHa-2BWeird, it crashes for me right after the Piranha Bytes logo with *any* version of wine that is not the Arch build of 3.9 (non-staging). Even my own 3.9 builds crash the game for some reason.

Performance cannot really be improved any further and 70% of Windows perf is to be expected.

Did you test with wine 3.11? I think that 70% of performance compared to Windows may be related to CPU utilisation issues in Wine, because when I run the game with taskset and choose 6 instead of 12 available threads performance drop to even 40 FPS, so it's something wrong, because on Windows this game use just 2 threads most of the time. When I assigned just 2 threads to this game via taskset I just had 12 FPS. I think that in optimal scenerio 80% of the performance is realistic (eg. I have around 80% of windows performance in The Witcher 3 on Linux).

BTW. I have Ryzen 1600X + 3200MHz RAM + Radeon 580 8GB.

Quoting: YoRHa-2B

Quoting: ShmerlFrom DRM-free games, I've heard Elex works well.

Unfortunately it seems that wine 3.10 broke it, at least I had no luck running it since then. I'd appreciate if someone else who owns the game could test that.

Yesterday I tested ELEX with wine 3.11 + DXVK from git + Radeon drivers from Padoka PPA and all worked fine, however I had 53 FPS on Ubuntu vs 75 FPS on Windows with the same settings. Performance lost in The Witcher 3 is smaller.

This game is really amazing! I already bought two copies, for myself and the second for my wife (she also use Linux for play a games, except for The Witcher 3). It works really good on Linux.

Quoting: nadrolinuxThanks for information.

I tried to play Risen 3 Enhanced Edition, thats why I choosed 64 bit wineprefix.

It looks like a standard version of Risen 3 works good, however EE not.

Yeah enhanced edition is DX11 and 64bit but last time try this game dont run

However for this title type (DX11 - 64bit) staging is highly recommended

^_^

Thanks a lot. I thought that EE is still DX9.

Quoting: nadrolinuxGlad to hear that info :) Do you use 32 or 64 bit wineprefix?

Did you installed additional libraries like d3dx9 etc?

Yes, my hardware and software differ a lot.

I have Radeon RX580 (mesa-git) and Ubuntu 17.10, however I think that a problem is related to wine configuration.

I use 64 bit wineprefix without additional libraries.

Hi

I can test risen 3 with wine 3.0-rc6 and still works

Respect prefix my main prefix is 32bit only (I use risen 3 standard DX9), i have another for 64bit apps but this game is 32bit (enhanced edition is different)

Maybe this occur because your hardware is different

If it will show up on Linux I'll buy a second copy of this game directly from a porting company (probably Feral) store. IMO this is the best game from a Total War series.
