Performances are also an issue on MacOS native port :

http://tamrielfoundry.com/topic/mac-client-progress-update/page/11/

It seams that the CPU is the main bottleneck not the GPU.

Quote from Grolm

That's very interesting.  That thread seems to talk about the SET RequestedNumThreads "0" causing a noticeable decrease in CPU performance too.  

Something else that occurs to me is that maybe the FPS reporting is not exactly accurate when running the game with Wine.  If I had not used the FPS tool, I honestly would not have noticed a difference in performance.  The human eye can only discern so much...

It seams that there is also a frame rate drop on windows with opengl.

It would be interesting to see what settings are used on mac by default but I have no mac available.

Quote from Grolm

I might be able to get this for you.  Would you be looking for a UserSettings.txt from a computer running the Mac client?

yes please, to look if there is special settings by default on mac.

With RequestedNumThreads to 0 my GPU (GTX460) is underused (max80%) and one thread is at 100% all the other at 0%.

I changed RequestedNumThreads to 4 (CPU Quad core Intel Core i7-2600K) and now my GPU is 100% used and it seams lot smoothier, 5 threads are now used one still at 100% but 4 other varying.

I have to check if it is stable.

No crash in 3 hours :)

I only restarted the game once to free some memory as there might be some memory leeks. When the game use 3GiB and more it starts to lag.

Could you try to paste this in a terminal and test your frame rate and GPU utilisation:

CPUS=$(($(grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo 2>/dev/null || sysctl -n hw.ncpu) - 1)); sed -i -e 's/^\(SET RequestedNumThreads\).*$/\1 "'${CPUS}'"/' ~/Documents/Elder\ Scrolls\ Online/live*/UserSettings.txt


It will set RequestedNumThreads to #CPU - 1.

For nvidia GPU utilisation could be obtained with nvidia-settings for intel and AMD I don't know.

I have an annoying bug, the window sometime loose mouse focus, and I have to click to regain it, it often happen in inventory, banks, conversations, and sometime during lock picking.

Does anybody have an idea to prevent this mouse focus loss ?

Yes, I have the same issue. Could it be related to the Awesomium process crashing?

I don't know.

I found a message on codeweavers forum http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name/?app_id=11974;forum=1;msg=161090

but I don't know what he means by "the mouse focus checkbox"

The memory management issues (not quite a memory leak) that this game suffers from are driving me crazy! I believe Mac users (and now Linux users) are hit the hardest.

While a 64-bit client would not *fix* the problem, it would hide the problem very well. Currently, the game suffers from threads waiting for memory to be freed up by garbage collection. This can cause the game to nearly lock up and freeze for several seconds, or worse - the game will crash entirely.

With graphic quality and draw distance turned up, it's quite easy to hit that 4GB limit. I only hope they can sort this out soon. As it stands, at least for me, performance of ESO on Linux is only tolerable for basic questing. I have to boot into Windows to enjoy Cyrodiil.

FWIW here are my system specs

Dual Xeon 2.8 GHz quad core processors
16 GB DDR3 RAM (PC 10600)
2x EVGA GTX 660 SC (not in SLI)

As mentioned previously, I am running a multiseat linux setup, and I can run *2* game clients at once with little effect on fps. In other words, the performance problems I experience happen even when running only one instance of the game.

Did anyone else get the issue when trying to install the game that it gets stuck in the screen with the continue and exit options at the start of the installation? I've tried to use the installer now available for ESO via playonlinux and after choosing my language option and going through a few loading screens it gets stuck on a screen which recommends I close all other apps and gives me the option to continue or exit and I'm unable to get out of that. It may be a very silly issue but I would appreciate some help with that.

BasharMentat I had the same issue inside a VM, it might be video driver related.

What is your GPU ? Do you use a 3d desktop compositor ?
BasharMentat Dimanche 20 Avril 2014 à 13:58
BasharMentatAnonymous

Thank you very much for the reply!

My GPU is GeForce 310M and I'm in Unity 3D most of the time.

solved, at least now is installing.

What happened is that the graphicl part of the instaler it was not drawing correctly somehow. Changing betwee Ctrl-Alt-F1 and Ctrl-Alt-F7 solved the problem.

Now updating the game client :D
