Summary: Gameplay slows to an unplayable level when it rains Product: Wine Version: 0.9.49. Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-directx-d3d AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: smackdat1@gmail.com
When outdoors in Oblivion using Wine 0.9.49, rain causes the game to slow down to below 0.4 FPS. Even after it has stopped raining, the slowdown lasts for a while. The only way to get around it is to wait until the rain stops using the sleep button. This workaround will not work if the rain is plot driven and will not stop until you complete a quest, if there are enemies nearby, or if you are trespassing.
