I’ve been using the 64-bit installer having followed (not a full reddit link due to link limit)/r/linuxquestions/comments/6goiso/trouble_with_gallium_nine_in_wine_on_debian/ to manually enable Gallium nine. When I can play Path of Exile, it’s pretty OK on the default ge-wine 3.6 runner.
When I switch zones there is a decent chance of crashing via either d3d9 errors or failures to create threads.
Here is the output of inxi -b

I am running the graphics drivers from the Oibaf PPA right now, https://launchpad.net/~oibaf/+archive/ubuntu/graphics-drivers. Neither winesteam installer lets me open PoE in dx11, the DXVK one being the one where that matters.
I know the game played better when I was on arch using ge-wine 3.11, but I suck and fail at manually compiling it even when following the PKGBUILD manually and not even bothering to consider setting it up as multiarch.
I get d3d9 errors, unable to create thread errors, and unable to create rtt background texture errors. Every time any error pops up my game crashes immediately. I forgot to make a pictures folder, so when I was replicating and screenshotting the screenshots went to nowhere, and I need to go to sleep, so I’ll post what I have. Also, lutris --debug gave me normal output, including looking like a normal game exit when the game would crash.
I’ve also noticed that areas crash less often(not not at all, just less) when I’ve been there before. For example, the “unable to create new thread” and “unable to create rtt background texture” errors are most common when entering a new zone.
Anyone know if this is something that was fixed going up to ge-3.11?(which isn’t packed as a downloadable runner under manage runners) I’m probably going to check(when I wake up) if esync-3.12 doesn’t have the WIC factory error that forces me to stay on the older WINE version as well, assuming I don’t see anything else worth trying in here.
