I really like their games, especially Victoria II. :)

Is that the full gameplay ? If so it really sucks.

I hope they'll release Cities in Motion 2 for Linux. I asked about Linux support in their forums ~ 3 months ago and I think they are considering it. They didn't promise anything, but I was responded with this:

Thanks for the feedback! Taking on a new platform is always more work than just the porting and publisher is the one to make these calls, but let's see what we can do :)

So, there is still some hope :)

well this sux :( would not have time to read Phoronix for the few months ;)

Anyone tried it with the Radeon FOSS drivers yet?
I did with mesa 9.0.1 (HD 4850) and at least the maps are black.
Not sure if it works with 9.1 git/head.

Never heard of that game.
Made me think of Carta marina though.

First check ~/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Crusader Kings II/logs/error.log and other logs.
Probably it's problem with wrong macro in shader file.
STANDARDFUNCS_H__ macro is violates GLSL standard.

If you remove two first and last lines from /gfx/FX/standardfuncsgfx.fxh file map will probably show.

I posted this bug here:

Sorry for broken link, but I know there is pre-moderation for posts with links from new accounts.

Please upload screenshots if game will work for you.

There is report from other forum: after removing wrong macro map is visible on Intel HD3000 with few bugs.
Screenshots:
1 - without water and trees (performance quite high)
2 - with everything enabled (performance is low)
Probably game should be playable on some AMD cards with open source driver.
