Summary: Video corruption in World of Warcraft with ATI Radeon HD 3870 Product: Wine Version: 1.1.43 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: doumakes@loganet.net

Since late April 2010 I've been having screen tearing and other problems with rendering in World of Warcraft. By "screen tearing" I mean that rapidly-shifting areas of the screen are rendered as polygons of solid color. This usually affects what I think of as the background layer of the window, rather than any foreground window that happens to be open. Seems to be worse in certain areas of the game world, e.g. Crystalsong Forest, where I imagine textures are more complex.
By "other problems" I mean that square areas of the landscape sometimes appear to be rendered with the wrong z coordinate, so a square of ground will appear to be hovering in midair. This seems to happen most often right after entry to the game world.
Turning on VSync doesn't fix the problem. Problem appears whether in windowed mode or full-screen mode.
I've upgraded Ubuntu to 10.04 (lucid) with no relief. At this point I've got fglrx 8.723.1 (latest from ATI) and wine 1.1.43.

--- Comment #6 from Roderick Colenbrander thunderbird2k@gmail.com 2010-05-27 16:23:08 --- Could you retry this on Wine 1.2-rc1? Some changes have been made to GL_ARB_map_buffer_range which could perhaps be related this. Further if I read your config.wtf correctly you aren't running the game in OpenGL mode, right? (I don't have the game but thought the renderer was set in there) Likely you can work around this bug in OpenGL mode

--- Comment #7 from Don Doumakes doumakes@loganet.net 2010-05-27 18:07:16 --- Sure enough, running in opengl mode fixes the problem. I had been opening WoW using a desktop shortcut, whose command line specified -opengl. Fiddling around with the desktop shortcut ("I'll use Launcher.exe instead; what could go wrong?") removed the -opengl argument and created the symptoms.
You can mark this bug invalid/solved/user-is-a-bonehead.
