wine users - Oct 2011 - Re: Wine and WoW Cataclysm Patch 4.0 troubleshooting thread

I ran WoW on Windows just a few weeks before I first posted in this thread. TBH
my wife used it more than me - it was her PC. But I used to occasionally steer
her around when we were questing together or something and she was AFK.

The graphics settings under Windows were much higher then than they are now and
the FPS, although I didn't measure it exactly, was at least as good. When I
turn the graphics settings higher under Linux now, particularly the view
distance, it runs noticeably worse, and definitely worse than when running under
Windows even though the graphics settings are still lower than when running
under Windows.
