Bug #: 29144 Summary: skyrim freeze starting new game with ati/catalyst Product: Wine Version: 1.3.32 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-d3dx9 AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: stevekej@gmail.com CC: wine-bugs@winehq.org Classification: Unclassified
Created attachment 37582 --> http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=37582 terminal output launching game
After following recommended setups in appdb skyrim installs and starts normally through intro video and animated splash screen. After pressing the new game button, the game starts to load then the screen flickers and the animated splash screen freezes.
It appears, from the comments in appdb that this is only an issue for ati/catalyst as nvidia users have some issues that can be worked around (different terminal output), whereas this cannot.
Terminal output attached.
Used clean wineprefix and combinations of the following: OffscreenRenderingMode=backbuffer or fbo UseGLSL=enabled (does not start with disabled, output = no render device found)
Also tried appdb suggestions: 1. winetricks d3dx9_42 vcrun2008 xact Remove Intro video in "Skyrim/Data/Video" or 2. winetricks vcrun2008 installing DirectX10/DXSETUP.exe
Alas the problem persists.
