Well, I certainly can't, as I don't have the game ;-)

If I did, I would have shared them. As things stand, we haven't really made any
modifications to d3d-related patches (or, IIRC, any patches?) that would have
caused this regression. On the other hand, we may have messed up a rebase
somewhere.

I think it's probably more likely that something was broken upstream, but I
have no intuition as to what that might be, as this seems to be a D3D bug and I
have not worked on that area. Hence my request for comment from the D3D
developers.

I'm not sure what you mean by GA, but given the wide field of applications that
Wine (and by extension Wine-Staging) supports, we don't defer releases for a
regression in one of them.
