[Bug 28520] New: Diablo II game menu fps regression

Bug #: 28520 Summary: Diablo II game menu fps regression Product: Wine Version: 1.3.29 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: directx-ddraw AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: elton@schiert.net CC: hverbeet@gmail.com Classification: Unclassified Regression SHA1: 1aeee59bd8b6172c848c8029e1a55ddac1f93c44

There has been a behavior change in the game Diablo II caused by

http://source.winehq.org/git/wine.git/?a=commit;h=1aeee59bd8b6172c848c8029e1... Author: Henri Verbeet hverbeet@codeweavers.com Date: Thu Sep 15 20:01:50 2011 +0200 ddraw: Use offscreen backbuffers.

Before this patch the frame rate in the game menu (press Esc while in game) was limited to <=60. Now the frame rate can reach hundreds. Behavior on Windows: frame rate is limited at 60.

The reason I am reporting this: Shortly after opening the game menu there often is a short but very noticeable phase where everything behaves sluggishly, making it very hard to select the desired entry with the mouse.

The sluggishness/slowdown itself may not be a Wine bug since is not a problem when I switch NVIDIA PowerMizer from its default "Adaptive" to "Prefer Maximum Performance". That, however, is not an acceptable permanent solution on a laptop. Sync to VBlank settings do not change the behavior.

So far I have only been able to observe the slowdown when running the game in Direct3D mode, although the frame rate is now also unlimited when running in DirectDraw mode. All observations have been made with Diablo II Lord of Destruction 1.13c.

--- Comment #1 from el elton@schiert.net 2011-10-02 12:10:50 CDT --- Why did you change the title to say "low frame rate"? The problem is that the frame rate can now go way too high.

Problem is still present in wine-1.3.36-72-g8d66ca1.

--- Comment #3 from Henri Verbeet hverbeet@gmail.com 2012-01-27 11:38:03 CST --- The problem is that framebuffer blits to the frontbuffer ignore vsync / swap interval. We can fix that by blitting to the backbuffer instead and calling SwapBuffers() afterwards in those cases, but probably not before 1.4.

Possibly, but there's a decent amount of other things that could cause something like that as well.

Hi, i'm joining this club/bug with Incoming game. Before there was a bug 24368 - "Incoming: game is uncontrollably fast" and that was fixed by Andrew as was mentioned in bug 24368.

Since wine-1.3.29 the Incoming is uncontrollably fast again thanks to commit mentioned here in comment #0.

--- Comment #22 from WineBuG winebugs140@gmail.com --- On macOS, when playing Captain Claw (https://archive.org/details/CaptainClaw) and using the Mac Driver, there's something really strange going on that might be related to this very bug: if you DISABLE v-sync via the registry key "AllowVerticalSync" -- the animation speed is more or less correct (but not quite smooth). This is really weird, taking into account that this bug is basically about IGNORING V-SYNC by the game, and the fact that Windows users are generally ADVISED TO ENABLE V-SYNC to fix Captain Claw's animation speed and jumping issues (check out: http://www.kapitanpazur.piasta.pl/en/support.html)!

You can achieve a similar effect when using X11 on macOS as well.

Thanks for the suggestion! I just tested it on Debian 9 with Panzer General II (Intel integrated graphics), it did unfortunately not work, things are still moving super fast :-(

Thank you for posting this. I was having a similar problem on my Mac, specifically with Captain Claw. I had no problems running Claw on 2.x (don't remember the exact version). Everything ran out of the box. When I upgraded to 3.0-rc2, this issue appeared. Applying your registry change fixed Claw.

As a side note, Wine 2.x had been installed through the .pkg file from the main downloads page. Wine 3.0-rc2 was installed through homebrew, so maybe there was a configuration change that caused the re-appearance of this bug. The same wineprefix was used both times.

This should be fixed by commit 034e88e038e8114ec31261d88dece1e2691185fb.

The issue in Imperium Galactica II is fixed (that was bug #40369).

I can't test Incoming at the moment, because the game throws an exception after the intro, could be a regression somewhere between 1.9.20 and 1.9.24, hasn't investigated it yet.

Panzer General II (bug #32994) has serious redrawing issues when I move the mouse pointer across the screen. The issue goes away if I revert 034e88e038e8114ec31261d88dece1e2691185fb. Apart from the redrawing issue, the game seems to run at normal speed now.
