thx martinjlowm your parameter for wine works well. the only problem i get with it, the dyes and armors don't update well on change but in further time it can be fixed perhaps with newer drivers
for all other wine guildwars2 player the bug for the mouse and the store are fixed AND for the CPU glitch it has a little "workaround" not well but it raise the FPS limit a little bit. simple, use taskset it works a little bit
I'll try and report in the near future on winehq for GW2 and other game problems as far as possible for me

]]>I haven't played the recent stress tests, however it worked fine during the last beta weekend event.
I need to do some digging as well. Better find a solution soon!
edit:
Launch Gw2.exe with -dx9single works around the shader error
]]>I thought another application for wine doesn't work too but i was wrong. I tried to run Project64 and it runs well.
I need help and i need it urgently, sorry but the pre-start is on saturday and i will find a solution for my problem until saturday.
I dont even try to patch wine nor i used the debug function. if one of theses can be the solution, please explain me how to handle it
maybe someone know the solution

this is my new problem.
err:winediag:shader_generate_glsl_declarations The hardware does not support enough uniform components to run this shader, it may not render correctly.
I cannot play anymore. the game has blackscreen before the update is running
I've got some tipps from http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30330. Actually I'm at work, so I can't test these possibilties and i can't even get the debug output. The only thing i know its that this issue was before and after the system update with glibc
@Darksoul71: i haven't had time to buy a NVidia card and until saturday where the GW2 pre-start is, I can't buy one
and @all thx for your help up to here

]]>I have an AMD HD4670 myself running inside a Sabayon box. Results are really mixed. Previously under Xubuntu I experienced massive CPU-load spikes with fglrx which forced me to switch to the open source radeon. HD acceleration with VAAPI never worked as well as VDPDAU with NVidia cards. I would watch out for used cards on E-Bay. Something like a 9500GT, 9600GT or 9800GT will often be available for ~ 30€ including shipment and often even with a good silent replacement cooler. At least here in Germany.
I guess something between a 9500 and 9600 should provide a similar performance level as your 5670.
]]>The answer of gcool indicates that there might be different issues independent from fglrx.
]]>Nevertheless, I'm not bothered by this because again:
1) It's a beta.
2) See my previous post.
@Darksoul71: since the beta weekend i've not been searching for this on wine because while the beta was running i was searching there but there wasn't any answer. But anyway this conversation doesn't help me to find a solution.
@snakeye: it was not only this stresstest on June 27th also the 2nd Beta Event.
@Gcool: and what does that mean exactly for my problem?
most of the graphical stuff is being software rendered (and hence the performance isn't going to be great obviously).

]]>They called it a stress test for a reason. The purpose was to test load conditions and stress the hell out of the servers. So naturally playing conditions weren't going to be great.
This pretty much.
Aside from that, I remember reading somewhere about how during the Beta weekends so far, most of the graphical stuff is being software rendered (and hence the performance isn't going to be great obviously).
]]>I want to play Guild Wars 2 on Linux. But since the second Beta Event (the first event and the first stress test I could play fine) i have trouble with the graphic settings or better explained, I can't play without lags (they appear every second!!!)
I saw on a website that somebody played it very well on Arch Linux 3.3.3-1 with the wine version 1.5.3
I'm running Wine 1.5.6
on ArchLinux 3.4.2-2
but I also tried with PlayonLinux with wine 1.5.4 and 1.5.3 but still doesn't work.
My graphic card is an ATI Radeon HD5670 (1024 MB) with the catalyst driver 12.4-5
so i ask following question to all other Guild Wars2 players who plays on Linux:
Can you play Gw2 without lags since the 2nd Beta Event? If "yes" what should i do that helps me or what have you done for it?
