Wine (Linux)
Black Boxes Visual Bug[edit]
You might be getting this black box visual bug over your screen (see Figure 1.) while playing Aether Story on Linux while using Wine. You will notice this issue when entities (you or monsters) attempt to walk through grass. This is a result of not having the GLSL setting enabled in wine, which enables shaders.
Here are the steps to enable GLSL in Wine:
- Install winetricks (if you haven't already) with
sudo apt install winetricks
- Run winetricks with :
winetricks
- If you used the GUI, you might get a warning which you can safely ignore.
- Select the : "Select the default wineprefix" Option.
- Select : "Change settings"
- Scroll down till you see : "glsl=enabled". (See Figure 2.)
- Select the checkbox
- Exit out and you'll be good to go!
