That ppa still use llvm-3.5, OK. Yes i manage to reporuduce it now with llvm-3.5 and with GFX Quality high setted in game, but with low issue is not there.

Anyway issue as i see is mostly fixed if current mesa is compiled against llvm-3.6 svn.

I don't use ubuntu but you might want to try some ppas which does that like this one - not day to day up to date, but hopefully should work at least for you to check if this issue still appear there for you?

Any idea what causes this?

Not sure probably what happens in some other games like in bug 86038 , major blackiness which came from lighting seems to gone using llvm-3.6 there too, but still not completely even if you use llvm-3.6, most likely this comment goes to the right track:

It is discussed on mesa ml, so hopefully it will get fixed soon :)

--- Comment #9 from Jarkko K jarkko_korpi@hotmail.com --- Empire total war came to linux (9.12) and I just shortly tried it. There are some flags in the game, from far distance they sometimes become white. The effect is similar to this.

--- Comment #11 from Timothy Arceri t_arceri@yahoo.com.au --- The black boxes are gone but there are other rendering issues. I've create an apitrace [1].

There is a shader that fails to compile due to a shader bug but thats not the problem as the trace runs fine on the Nvidia blob.

Running on Nvidia also produces warnings: "Texture state usage warning: Texture 0 is base level inconsistent. Check texture size."

Nevermind, I think I have some kind of hardware (memory) fault with one of my gpus. I've retested and this game works fine.
