Probably not. The Radeon driver, despite being slower and not having full hardware support on some cards, is at least pretty strict with standards and OpenGL bugs. Meaning, it's honestly probably easier to target it than Catalyst.

This is exactly what we want though. As soon as we had hit OpenGL 4/4.1 compatibility, it became better for everybody (from a user's standpoint) to target the FOSS drivers anyway.

What the h... It's dead old, but maybe the best total war game all time. Proper city/castle battles not that crap like it was on empire total war.

That is great news.
I bought this game, when it heavily discounted on Steam but unfortunately it did not work under wine. Now I will be able to play it.

Heh I have never played this game on windows, only on linux with wine, so sure it does work with wine(about ~5 years a go).

This game still has some multiplayer potential. I'll get it just for that.
