Summary: PhysX causes major lag in Mirror's Edge. Product: Wine Version: 1.3.11 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: H3g3m0n@gmail.com
When the PhysX option is enabled (setting in the Video Options) in Mirror's Edge. When 'physics' things start to occur the game starts to get some major lag becoming unplayable.
Mirror's Edge doesn't make too much use of PhysX (I believe it was on of the first games with support for it), afaik it's mostly used for enabling shattering glass to create shards and maybe some bits of paper on the ground.
As such this only seems to happen at specific points in the game. For example Chapter 1 Flight->Check Point D. As you are running across the bridge, the helicopter starts to shoot the glass causing it to shatter.
If you continue on to the next area, at some point (when you go underground) it suddenly returns to normal speed (most likely it has unloaded the previous area).
With PhysX set to off, there is no lag but no glass shards.

When there are enemies/broken glass around the game can crawl to a halt.

--- Comment #4 from Jay jaynobyl@gmx.de 2013-05-10 02:40:35 CDT --- Are you sure this is a real wine problem? The slowdown happens also with Windows, if you have not a NVIDIA-Card with Hardware-PhysX-support. Hardware-PhysX-support does not exist under Linux afak, so NVIDIA-Cards will cause a slowdown in wine as any other graphiccard. So it's impossible to fix this bug, isn't it?

Doesn't appear to be slowdowns anymore, Ubuntu 12.04, nvidia 319.49. Wine 1.6.1
Mirrors Edge on a new prefix will install physx 8 itself and yeah, this doesn't appear to be an issue anymore.

I still have the reported problem in Mirror's Edge (Steam version) when Physx is enabled. I tried the game with 2 different Physx versions (8.10.xx shipped with the game, and with the current Physx 9.13.0725). For example in Chapter 1->Checkpoint B when the SWAT team in the office building opens fire and glass is breaking into small pieces, game speed slows down to a crawl. With disabled physx this doesn't occur to me.
Fedora 19 wine-1.7.7-107-g61358d0 Nvidia 250 GTS / driver 325.15

--- Comment #10 from Christopher May maquis196@yahoo.co.uk 2013-12-05 17:15:04 CST --- Hhmmm, I only tested the first level. When I originally confirmed this bug I recall the first encounter with an enemy slowed the game to a crawl and now the game is smooth as anything for the entire first level. I do remember the bit you were talking about with the swat team in the office so I when I have time I'll see if its the same there or not.
The only other "modifier" that I can think of is that I'm playing mirrors edge now on an optimus laptop... does physx behave differently when its being played through primusrun?

--- Comment #11 from scix55@gmail.com --- I'm not sure if wine-staging discussion is allowed here but this is fixed in wine-staging-1.7.34 which has hardware PhysX support (Nvidia binary drivers only). It also requires removing or renaming the physx libs that Mirror's Edge includes (PhysXCore.dll, PhysXDevice.dll, and PhysXLocal directory), Linux CUDA support enabled and working and the Windows version of PhysX installed.

It should be just fine now. But that sounds a lot like a workaround. I am not saying they don't have a real fix for this, but I think it should work more out of box.
Has this bug improved meanwhile? CMST patches (or some part of them) are in wine, disabled by default. Does anyone have a clue what causes those slowdowns in wine?

Ping! Seven years waiting for a reply.
As a slight sidenote to this, since you recently posted: What happens if you use recent wine like 9.5+, and use "winetricks physx"?
After wine-9.5, i only get a errormessage from winetricks saying:
"command wine PhysX_9.21.0713_SystemSoftware.exe returned status 9. Aborting"
If i just try to run the executable without using winetricks, the error is this with no additional debug settings:
002c:fixme:winediag:loader_init wine-staging 9.7 is a testing version containing experimental patches. 002c:fixme:winediag:loader_init Please mention your exact version when filing bug reports on winehq.org. 0024:fixme:ntdll:NtQuerySystemInformation info_class SYSTEM_PERFORMANCE_INFORMATION 0024:fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100
I somewhat do not think the SHELL_execute flag is important for this, so not get hung up on that.
PS. You could try out "nvidia-libs" for a bit more updated nvcuda implementation and test this game - But do NOT post issues regarding this package on WineHQ

--- Comment #15 from Sveinar Søpler cybermax@dexter.no --- Well to answer myself about using recent wine-9.5 or newer when installing PhysX, reverting this patch: https://github.com/wine-mirror/wine/commit/85d029e3b01f6dd35a86cc07796af982d...
Seems to make that particular installer work again.
