[Bug 24466] New: Sid Meier's Pirates! frequent hiccups, temporary lock-ups
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=24466 Summary: Sid Meier's Pirates! frequent hiccups, temporary lock-ups Product: Wine Version: 1.3.3 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: gyebro69(a)gmail.com Created an attachment (id=30870) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=30870) terminal output Sid Meier's Pirates! (patched to the latest 1.0.2 version) performs badly in Wine. This issue is described in several test results on the Appdb page of the game, too. I can observe the following symptoms: - After the intro video played, it takes almost 2 minutes to get into the main menu (without noticeable hdd activity). - When I get into the game and visit any places in the port (Governor, Merchant, Tavern etc.) it usually takes the game 15-20 seconds to display the next screen (although music plays continuously). - While sailing, the game frequently "freezes" for 2-3 seconds without no apparent reasons. When those hiccups occur all animations freeze on the current screen until the next screen is loaded but music plays fluently. Reducing the screen resolution, graphical details or disable audio doesn't help. I remember playing this game several years ago in a native Win XP without this issues. No demo available.

(ie, taskset 01 "wine program.exe" seems to work quite well). So you could set up a script with the following: cd "game install dir" taskset 01 wine program.exe I use a wine explorer desktop in this case, so "wine explorer /desktop=name,1024x768 program.exe" will launch the game in a window of the size specified. that would about do it, works for me.

I found that this bug is able to be worked around by using taskset. (ie, taskset 01 "wine program.exe" seems to work quite well).
Indeed, disabling one of the cpu cores (or using taskset) improves the situation considerably: during sailing almost all of those hiccups have gone; loading times are also much shorter between scenes. Certain minigames (e.g. sword fighting) still behave erratically (there are several seconds pause during gameplay). wine-1.3.21-310-g7cd20a4 -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Please file a new bug report for the problems you have (disappearing mouse cursor and incorrect rendering of objects). Also please specify what video card/drivers you have installed. I don't have such problems with Nvidia binary drivers 319.23. The originally reported problem is still present for me, tested with wine-1.6-rc1-58-g2fd3ec7. If I force the game to run only on 1 CPU core, the slowdowns are significantly reduced. I don't have Windows installed, so can't tell how the game behaves under native Windows on my dual-core system. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Still present in 1.7.37
This is from appdb. "I play with Sabayon X64 15.08,Nvidia GTX650 TI Boost propretary drivers, 16Gb Ram, 1 TB hdd; sometimes the screen freezes for 1-3 seconds during fights or dancing, nothing unacceptable, but it's annoying" 1.7.53.

The game loads to the main menu in roughly 20 seconds. When entering a colony or town and switching between locations (merchant, tavern) the game freezes temporarily for 5-10 seconds. Entering a mini-game also has a noticeable pause. Short, but frequent pauses are present while sailing on the map. A Wine patched with the esync patchset gives a much smoother gameplay: the game loads to the menu in less than 8 seconds, those frequent and annoying freezes during gameplay are non-existent. For example mini-games are loaded almost instantly. https://github.com/zfigura/wine/tree/esync FWIW, I have the following specs: AMD Athlon 64 x2 5600+ 8 GB RAM Nvidia 730 GT, drivers 396.24.10 Kernel 4.17.6 This was tested with the GOG.com version of the game. -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.

Does the bug still occur with wine-7.0-rc3?
I replaced my old PC with a newer one a while ago. AMD 64 X2 -> Ryzen 5 5600X +lots of RAM so regression testing is a breeze now :) I can't reproduce the problem since then. The game runs fine, without noticeable hiccups or stuttering. To be sure, I compiled an old Wine 3.12, Kernel 4.14 and downgraded to Nvidia 396, but the problem didn't occur. It seems a sufficiently powerful cpu can overcome the problem. wine-7.0-rc3-8-g240f2f39632 -- Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply.
