Hi,

The ground texture seems corrupted when I play Surviving Mars.

This is my configuration:
- CPU: AMD Ryzen 5 2400G
- RAM: 32GiB
- GPU: Radeon RX Vega 64
- OS: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS
- Driver: AMDGPU-Pro 18.20

I have attached 2 screenshots of the issue. I'm happy to provide additional details if that would help solve this problem.

Can you replicate the issue?
1. Play the game.
2. Look at the ground.

I'd suggest you use the latest Mesa AMD driver rather than their proprietary ones.

Hi AndrewT,

I did try the mesa drivers. They do have much better performance, but I assumed only the proprietary driver were supported, as seems to be the case with other Paradox games.
I tried the mesa drivers bundled with Ubuntu 18.04, the latest release, and the latest development version. They all have the same glitch. Perhaps of interest is that I have the same issue on a completely different PC that has Intel graphics (that I also assumed were not supported). On that PC, the corruption contains more colors, but otherwise looks about the same.

The only PC I could test that does not have this glitch, has an AMD card that is supported by the old mesa drivers. But that driver does not support my newer card.

I was able to find a similar issue here, also on AMD, from a coiple of months ago (so different game version):
https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/foru...problem-on-228722-with-rx-560d-linux.1090458/

In that case though it was fixed with 18.04, which you have ... nevertheless it seems likely from that that this is a Linux issue. You are on 4.15 ? All up to date on patches there?

The mouse cursor is also rendered incorrectly.
