When playing first mission of Spellforce 2 Shadow Wars, I've noticed screen
flickering. On further inspection I noticed that when you move screen to
different locations on map using mouse at screen border or arrow keys,
sometimes objects on screen go darker, sometimes they go back to original
colours or something close to them, and on some other locations it switches
between dark and usual colours few times a second. This colour switching during
move of screen camera looks like some annoying screen flickering. Effect is
especially noticeable if there are a lot of trees on screen.

Due to bug #34323 I was using a prefix with directx9, directplay and
d3dcompiler_43 installed via winetricks.

I've tried a clean prefix with wine 3.0.3 with and without winetricks stuff,
and it worked fine. After that I've switched to wine 4.0, and both with and
without winetricks stuff issue appears.

After that I've tried bisecting and testing using prefix with winetricks stuff,
and I've found first commit which causes issue to me. I wasn't able to revert
it for wine 4.0 and test without that change.

Screenshots collage is in attachment. It contains two locations from first map
of campaign, taken with wine 3.0.3, wine 4.0 and wine 4.0 at a bit different
location (causing objects to be coloured darker). It demonstrates difference
between usual screen and darker screen, and when camera is moving the change
between two of them causes effect similar to flickering.
