--- Comment #7 from Dennis Mayr dmayr.dev@gmail.com --- (In reply to Olivier F. R. Dierick from comment #6)
Hello,
- Retest with recent wine-devel/wine-staging (5.0-rc*).
4.0.3 is wine-stable and doesn't include the latest fixes and features.
--- quote from https://wiki.winehq.org/Bugs#When_to_report_a_bug --- When to report a bug (...) ยท You are using the latest development version of Wine (not stable) (See downloads for information on how to get the latest). (...) --- end quote --- https://www.winehq.org/download
- Try with Windows version 7 in winecfg.
Unless the application has a specific need for Win10 you should use the default Win7 mode.
- If the above doesn't fix the issue:
Attach a normal (=without WINDEBUG) terminal output). Instructions to get a log can be found there: https://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log
- Please also state how much system RAM you have.
The issue you describes happens on Windows too (search for 'gta 4 lags after few minutes' on any search engine). On Windows it is related to Page Caching on disk when system RAM is exhausted.
- Please also add the bug link to the AppDB entry of your version.
If you don't have/want an AppDB account, please tell the version so that I can add the link myself. https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=application&iId=8757
- Black screen with nouveau may be bug 38863.
Please, Let this bug focus on the lag issue only.
Regards.
Hi! I just retested.
1. I've used wine-5.0-rc3 2. Windows 7 mode worsened performance in comparison to Windows 10 mode 3. log.txt yielded nothing 4. My machine has 4Gb of RAM, no other applications are open at the time GTA IV is running 5. I'm using the Title Update 7 version of the game: https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=22316
