AOW3 launch screen glitch

[Imednoc]

Hey everyone, I am trying to load AOW3 and I get a white box in the upper right corner. I can't get past that screen.

Any help would be appreciated. I'll attach a screenshot of it.

• 
  MINIMUM:
  • OS: SteamOS, Ubuntu 14.10 with proprietary drivers
    
  • Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 @ 2.4 Ghz or AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ @2.6 Ghz
    
  • Memory: 3 GB RAM
    
  • Graphics: nVidia Geforce GTX 250 / ATi Radeon HD 4870 with 512MB or integrated Intel HD 4000 with 3GB system ram.

What video card and driver do you use?

I have a Radeon HD 5750. There are no "drivers" specifically, since the OS is newer. So, native video drivers, I guess. Is installing video drivers still a thing? I was told that it is no longer necessary, and also I have tried updating drivers on these newer Kubuntu builds. They never work.

[AndrewT]

Sure there are Linx video drivers, are you familiar with the Mesa project? Essentially with Intel or AMD video you need to use those on Linux. The only native drivers that IMO work acceptably are nVidia.

Note your video card is a touch under GPU power of the minimum requirement for the game:

So even if we can resolve the initial issue, you'll need to run at low graphics settings.

I am also facing this same issue. There is some glitch in launch screen. A white box appears in launch screen and I am unable to get past it.

OS: Ubuntu 18.04 LTS (elementary OS 5.0) 64bit.
and I meet all the minimum system requirements.

Which video card do you both have, and what driver are you using for it?

I had the x.org open source driver - when I switch to the native NV driver, all is well!

New settings:

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP106M [GeForce GTX 1060 Mobile 6GB] (rev a1)
Subsystem: Dell GP106M [GeForce GTX 1060 Mobile 6GB]
Kernel driver in use: nvidia
Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau, nvidia_drm, nvidia

Good to hear! Yes, with nVidia use their proprietary driver. With Intel or AMD use Mesa.
