Bug #: 34052 Summary: The Witcher: Character models are sometimes invisible Product: Wine Version: 1.6-rc5 Platform: x86 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: jeff@deseret-tech.com Classification: Unclassified
Created attachment 45258 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=45258 Missing character models
As described in the thread on bug #12771, which was recently closed due to the correction of one of the major reported graphical glitches in The Witcher, save games will sometimes load with invisible character models. Only the face and teeth of humans are visible, along with any gear (but not clothing) that may be carried on the character's back.
The occurrence of this issue seems hit and miss -- some people experience almost never, while others experience it almost always. Some registry tweaks involving video memory have been reported to resolve the issue for some.
I've attached a fresh screenshot of the issue, as seen with Wine 1.6-rc5. Geralt's face is clearly visible floating in the foreground, and the four floating helmets and swords in the background are supposed to be full city guard characters.
