Hello all,
So I ran through the download and install instructions for getting everything up and running on Wine + Arch and am running into some problems I can't quite figure out.
Namely, that I seem to be refresh rate locked at 50hz (on the OS side the monitor is set to 185hz), I had also read (in a somewhat old thread now) that Wine will only run at the refresh rate of your lowest monitor, so having a second monitor (with a 60hz refresh rate) I unplugged that and tried to launch the game again, only to still be locked at 50hz. For additional context, the game on my Windows install does fully recognize 185hz as an available option and doesn't have any qualms with it being set to 185hz.
I figured it was more than likely some kind of DirectX problem, so I pulled up the aur page for DirectX Vulkan (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/dxvk-bin) validated the github, and and also ran the recommended command to install it (setup_dxvk install
) which completed successfully. Still no luck.
The other problem that I'm having (that I believe may be related to the refresh rate) is that everything beyond what is immediately surrounding my character is extremely fuzzy like a camera that's focused on one area and everything else is purposefully blurred, which is seriously headache inducing haha.
I can't for the life of me figure out whats causing these issues, I've even added registry keys via wine regedit
that also didn't seem to make any different (both keys added were for attempting to force refresh rates, HKLM -> Software -> Microsoft -> DirectDraw -> ForceRefreshRate (REG_DWORD) -> Decimal = 185 / Hexadecimal = b9
and HKCU -> Software -> Wine -> X11 Driver -> DefaultDisplayFrequency (REG_DWORD) -> Decimal = 185 / Hexadecimal = b9
still to no avail.
The only other thing that I can possibly think of at this point, is that its related to export WINEARCH=win32
being set to 32bit and thus forcing a lower refresh rate.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and thanks in advance! If any additional information is required please let me know and I will get it added to the ticket.
