Please read KNOWN ISSUES in the code.

 

In my POL logs I have lots of these issues:

0051:err:d3d:wined3d_debug_callback 0x8fb19d0: "GL_INVALID_ENUM in glTexBufferRange(internalFormat GL_RGBA16_SNORM)".
0051:fixme:d3d_shader:shader_glsl_handle_instruction Backend can't handle opcode dcl_input_ps_siv.
