Concerning missing graphics on linux on native client

General
1

Not going to bring it up again for it has been stated many times on the forums, however something peculiar happened that maybe more knowledgeable people than I can find useful.

I run the native linux client and cannot do the whole force vulcan thing or run the windows version due to an ageing GPU. That being said I have the whole missing transparent map/no glyph graphics/n color in hp/mana thing and have been playing without for a long time.

However, I was in the Soulfire Bastion and died at the same time the boss did and when I respawned all the graphical errors were resolved. Needless to say i was surprised and quite pleased… until i logged out and back in… the graphics were missing again. I have not had it resolve anymore so hopefully this info can be helpful to maybe find a workaround or fix in the future.

Thank you all for your hard work for making a game I can thoroughly enjoy even when I cant see my way around half the time. :smiley:

I’m pretty sure this is a graphics driver issue and not a linux issue. I have a spare computer running linux and like to play LE on it sometimes. The box has a 3060 and uses nvidia drivers. But I did notice that the characters are transparent on the create new character screen. Weird. But once a character is created, I can log in and everything works normally.

You might check if your graphics drivers are the latest and if so there is probably not much you can do except wait for them to be updated again.

I had assumed as much so I decided to upgrade a little. Bought a Radeon RX 6650 XT and it fixed every issue I have BUT the map overlay. Since I’ve already dealt with it for so long I’ll just hope it resolves itself in the future. However it is super nice to be able to get 60+ FPS on every map now. :smiley:
