Aaah.. I was mistaking that for the sound issues that were present during earlier builds of beta. There used to be the case where you had to run the game with --nosound or something to disable the sound because certain sound effects were crashing with the openal32 stuff.

As far as I'm aware now, using the default install, it works as intended and at least under 1.5.6 I haven't had to run with the --nosound param. The only parameter I have been running with is -gc 2 which I'm not even sure if that is needed.
"
The problem was a massive flood of the following message being outputted by wine every time something died:

fixme:d3d:resource_check_usage Unhandled usage flags 0x8.

I get those messages in other versions of Wine, but for some reason 1.5.6 doesn't seem to have them. I might recommend also attempting 1.5.6 and see if you have the same problem. (I play with the Debug console open so I can report problems when they come up)


Wine 1.5.6 was one of the 4 versions I tried with no success. The only thing that solved this for me was running it with winedebug off.

Well, I guess the Wine is not the only one causing memory leaks...

Just finished playing about 30 mins of PoE under Mageia 2 x64, used PlayOnLinux, worked like a charm, no wine tweaks required. Did have some weird problems in window mode, like screen not refreshing until i had to "move" the PoE window.

I set it to fullscreen, disabled shadows, post-processing and screen shakes. Game is working pretty much flawlessly, except some fonts in the tooltips looking kind of weird sometimes (chat is fine though), and some very minor hiccups here and there like new spell effects, special drops (maybe like 1/4 of second stop).

Not sure what i can do to get it to play even better.

Specs:
- i7 920 Nephalem @ 2.6ghz
- 12gb of ram
- ATI Radeon HD 6950 2gb

Getting between 40-80 fps

So far so good. PlayOnLinux 4.1.9 with Wine 1.4
Hello.
I've finally managed to run PoE under wine.
The game runs great until "The rocky climb" location in first act, where it totaly freezes when skeleton archer fires burning arrow =)
After that the only way to exit a game is to kill -9 it.

I've managed to take a screenshot just after the freeze:

I tried different graphic settings with no luck.
There is nothing bad at the game log files after the crash and wine only spams with "fixme:d3d:resource_check_usage Unhandled usage flags 0x8."

My system:
OS: Ubuntu Linux 12.04, amd64 version
Wine: 1.5.6 from PlayOnLinux
Video: Geforce 9600GT with Nvidia 304.64 driver from ubuntu-x-swat ppa

PS: sorry for my English =)
Hi,
as for most of those sound issues, it helped me to switch wine audio from pulse back to alsa ($ winetricks sound=alsa). It will add a new key in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\Drivers where you can change it back tu pulse or whatever.
what may also help is setting HardwareAcceleration to Emulation in HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Wine\DirectSound

+ofc mentioned openal32 override
It work OK with sound in my Ubuntu 12.04 when I play alone (some times I have BIG fps drops).

But when I try playing in a party the game freezes every time somebody casts something. It's quite annoying.



Even if I play alone, with this performace I'll never be able to play Hardcore T-T




PS: Plz consider other OS clients !!! (Just look how big this Wine thread is come on)
Here are some hints I gathered from this thread and from my own experience with PoE and wine.
I'll try to keep this list updated when changes occur.

Optimizations

Use wine 1.5.6
- Later ones are either slow or have memory leaks

Disable GLSL!!!
- Removes the fps drops: winetricks glsl=disabled

Disable wine debug output
- Run the game with: WINEDEBUG=-all wine Client.exe

Use the ALSA driver instead of PulseAudio
- No OpenAL fiddling necessary. Run: winetricks sound=alsa


Other settings that might help

Disable V-Sync ingame
- May reduce fps drops

Increase the swappiness kernel value to 100 (common default is 60)
- Temporary: sudo echo 100 > /proc/sys/vm/swappiness
- Permanent: Add/Uncomment following line in /etc/sysctl.conf: vm.swappiness = 100

Hide the Global and Trading Chat
- Hiding those chats may reduce the fps drops

Force the game to one CPU-Core
- May reduce fps drops. Run with: taskset -c 0 wine Client.exe

Hello everyone, new guy here.

Why did the game not install in
~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Grinding Gear Games/Path of Exile/
instead it created all the files in my home directory?

Actually there are some files in the Program Files folder
Spoiler
Redist (folder with some directx, etc)
Client.exe (8.1 MB)
Content.ggpk (0 B)


but the rest
Spoiler
My Games (foler) (this one I understand, because WINE symlinks those My Documents folders to home)
Client.exe (8.1 MB)
Content.ggpk (5.5 GB)
CrashUpload.exe
HashCache.dat
ogg.dll
OpenAL32.dll
vorbis.dll
vorbisfile.dll
wrap_oal.dll


are in my home (which I do not like).
Hello.

I have problem with PoE on Wine. Game is opening fine, I can log into my account and choose character. The problem arise when the game map is loading, and error occurs that states : Unable to create texture. D3DERR_NOTAVAILABLE Not Available. I read on this topic before, that it could be missing lib32-virtualgl dependence, but installing it doesn't solve problem for me. I tried on Wine 1.4 and 1.5.6. I installed PoE using PlayOnLinux.

Here is debugger output:
