World of Warcraft Grapgical issues
Martin Apr 11, 2011
I was advised to come here and ask, as you guys might know how better to use wine. i been playing WoW on my new linux desktop. but i noticed some odd graphical issues when putting the video settings of the game on recomended which are mostly good ratings.

ill walk around outside a major city and get black screens, or half the enviroment missing, moving the mouse to change the camera angles changes whats missing. very strange and my fps goes from around 40-50 down to 20. i got a nvidia gts 450 with updated drivers so i wondered if there are any wine tweaks i can do to make it run better. at the moment i have to play it on low settings which is fine but i would like to atleast play on recomended settings if possible.

im using ubuntu 10.10 and im pretty dumb with all the sudo do this stuff i normally have a forum moderator on another linux site message me how to do it. i love linux but im alittle slow at using it :D
