Gameplay Help and Discussion - [Official] WINE info thread - Forum

Sorry if I wasn't supposed to post in this or not. I recently tried to play on Linux so I followed this guide: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/138054 and so far I got the patcher to update and then when I click launch I get the error "Failed resetting Direct3D device objects" Here are my pc specs (I have a old pc): OS:Ubuntu 13.04 32-bit RAM: 3gb Cpu: Intel® Pentium(R) Dual CPU T3400 @ 2.16GHz × 2 GPU: Mobile Intel® GM45 Express Chipset x86/MMX/SSE2 Any help would be great.

My guide on the wiki comes up near the top on a Google search for PoE Wine. http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Path_of_Exile_on_Wine This guide is current and working in the latest patch (1.1.2).

However, since the 1.1.0 update, I have been experiencing severe FPS drops upon nearly every monster death. The game runs smooth otherwise. I have not found any other post on these forums or on the Internets that's been able to help me fix this yet. I have tried adjusting every possible video setting within the game and outside the game. I have tried numerous other Wine versions and many different prefixes. The game still runs perfectly EXCEPT when something dies on screen, then it stutters terribly... which is really bad when I use a room-clearing skill where all the monsters die in rapid succession. My character is frozen during that time (which will eventually lead to certain death playing in the Invasion league). This problem has nothing to do with latency as far as I can tell. My latency is very steady in the mid 80s. Has anyone else experienced similar performance degradation since the 1.1.0 update? More importantly, has anyone found a solution?

What filesystem are you using? HAIL SATAN!	Posted by tramshed on Apr 15, 2014, 9:26:19 PM Quote this Post

Might be a locking or timer issue. I know almost nothing about ubuntu and its bastard children, it doesnt happen here though. Heres my specs in case they help. Spoiler Linux Behemoth 3.9.2-gentoo #5 SMP Tue Apr 8 03:24:25 EDT 2014 x86_64 AMD Phenom(tm) II X6 1100T Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers-334.21 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF100 [GeForce GTX 470] (rev a3) x11-base/xorg-server-1.15.0 app-emulation/wine-1.7.12 Im using reiserfs as a filesystem (MurderFS, fuck yeah!) Im using the midline timing and a pre-emptible kernel (Removal of the big kernel lock). If you need more in depth help, send me a message or something. I should note though that POE's performance in linux has gotten really fucking horrible in the last year, I dont even bother with it anymore unless im just farming. One thing you might want to do is just use a ramdisk, that choke is it loading assets off the hd, though not nearly as bad as you describe. I have no idea why it does that on linux and not windows, likely something to do with wine's architecture. Even with a ramdisk I get chokes when it goes to load assets on the fly. The wine version seems to make zero difference. HAIL SATAN! Last edited by tramshed on Apr 16, 2014, 1:59:28 AM	Posted by tramshed on Apr 16, 2014, 1:58:07 AM Quote this Post
I wonder, does it choke even when game files are on an SSD? The more you depend on forces outside yourself, the more you are dominated by them. --Harold Sherman	Posted by mruuh on Apr 16, 2014, 6:54:14 AM Quote this Post
