Hi all!
Just tried to do a fresh install of Starcraft 2 on Crossover Games 10.1.1, finding out how Starcraft 2 is doing with the FOSS Radeon Driver since some people report WOW being playable with it!
I can report:
- The Installation worked flawless
- Game starts without any error
- Main Menu looks perfect
- Matches start without any error
- Maps are mainly blank, but I could command the WBFs to harvest minerals and I saw the Commandocenter
- performance at lowest graphic settings was smooth (45FPS)
Looks very very promising and it was much better as I expected!!!
Maybe with some tweaks you can get much better results and I am optimistic that on Linux Gaming we can say goodbye to fglrx soon!
