Is CSMT enabled by default in wine 3? Are all CSMT features enabled?
I remember trying Witcher 3 in wine 3rc2 and getting a lot of graphical aberrations that are typical in wine-staging when not using CSMT.

Hi

Since wine 2.6 CSMT can be activated using wine registry, when be added wine description say this:

Quote[DWORD Value (REG_DWORD): Enable (0x1) or disable (0x0, default) the multi-threaded

Command stream feature. This serialises rendering commands from different threads into

A single rendering thread, in order to avoid the excessive glFlush()'is that would otherwise be required for correct rendering.

This deprecates the "StrictDrawOrdering" setting.

Introduced in wine-2.6.

But actually various titles improve performance activating CSMT* and correct some flickering in certain titles case senran kagura shinovi versus, metal gear rising and others

*Actually stay test DX9 and older titles when users can see wine 3.0 improvements

However in my case add Donat Enikeev patch**, this patch show csmt option in winecfg, this patch make more easily select csmt for users

**If any needs patch copy this text to new text file and add diff extension

Because dont all games improve with csmt, in various cases hurt performance

Respect the witcher 3 this title needs many patches from staging to work

In this point DX10-11 titles must be used with staging because vanilla lack of many patches

However DX10-11 titles will be interesting in next development cycle, when begins wine staging 3.1

You can activate CSMT via winetricks these days :D Just make sure to update winetricks if you have an older version.

Just open up winetricks and you will see the option to turn on CSMT :)

Ok, good to know. Thanks. :)

Thanks. I'll be sticking to staging since most Witcher 3 patches are not ported to master yet, apparently.
