Added this communication about release candidate from alexander julliard

https://www.winehq.org/pipermail/wine-devel/2018-January/121232.html

QuoteFolks,

I think that at this point, we have fixed most of the bugs that could be fixed during code freeze, so it looks like rc6 is going to be the last rc.

Please test it to confirm that there are no last minute issues.

Unless something major comes up, I'm planning to release the final 3.0
in a few days (as soon as I'm done writing the release notes...)

Thank you all for your work!

Yeah, League of Legends also has weird crackling/poping with ingame sound, otherwise it works great.

Risen 3 still doesn't work in this Wine version.

Quoting: mrdeathjrView video on youtube.com

It's been ages since I bought a Windows game to play with Wine, thanks to your video I went ahead and bought both NecroVisioN games.

May I ask how did you turn off the Vsync in this game? There's no in game setting or in the game's Bin/config.ini file either.

Curiously in my case stay works and tested with wine 3.0-rc3

Hi

In my case dont change anything in ini except select DX9 option with 1 in this line: Cfg.RenderDevice = 1

According pcgamingwiki game default no active v-sync

Hello Mrdeathjr,
did you try to play LA NOIRE with Wine? I have the Steam version and it's impossible to play this game for me.

Glad to hear that info :) Do you use 32 or 64 bit wineprefix? Did you installed additional libraries like d3dx9 etc? Yes, my hardware and software differ a lot. I have Radeon RX580 (mesa-git) and Ubuntu 17.10, however I think that a problem is related to wine configuration. I use 64 bit wineprefix without additional libraries.
