PostPosted: Mon Aug 18, 2014 9:55 am    Post subject: Dota 2 black textures Reply with quote

I'm reasonably certain I've seen this discussion before, but neither google nor the build in search feature helped me find it, so:

When I launch Dota 2, I get lots of textures being black, so the entire ground is just gone.

I run the latest ~amd64 mesa, xf86-video-ati, xorg, and kernel 3.15.10.

I've tried a couple of other games in steam and I see no issues in any other ones.

Any thoughts on what I can try?

Hi,

which graphic driver? I guess a FOSS one?

They lack some texture compression... for legal reason.

But you can use:

media-libs/libtxc_dxtn

I should added initially that I have libtxc_dxtn installed:
Code:
[ebuild   R    ] media-libs/libtxc_dxtn-1.0.1-r1  ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)" 0 kB

Driver is FOSS ati.
Code:
VIDEO_CARDS="r600 radeon"

Thanks Luchoman, but if that post adds anything that I don't already have, I don't understand it. (But then, my, Spanish is it? isn't very good either).

As stated above, I have:
Code:
# emerge -qvp libtxc_dxtn
[ebuild   R   ] media-libs/libtxc_dxtn-1.0.1-r1  ABI_X86="32 (64) (-x32)"

which I believe is the gist of the blog post as well?

in my case, when install sys-libs/glibc, with the line >=media-libs/libtxc_dxtn-1.0.1-r1 abi_x86_32 in /etc/portage/package.use, the black and reds textures disappeared
