--- Comment #5 from Nicolai Hähnle <nhaehnle at gmail.com> ---
This is a game bug.

The game tries to be clever by uploading some of its textures from a different
OpenGL context, but never uses any kind of synchronization between the texture
upload and the main context, so the texture upload never actually happens. This
is a serious programming mistake, and it is merely by chance that this works on
other drivers.

For your own purposes, you can work around the game bug in the driver by
applying the following patch:

---- SNIP ----
--- a/src/gallium/drivers/radeon/r600_texture.c
+++ b/src/gallium/drivers/radeon/r600_texture.c

pipe_context *ctx, struct r600

                       transfer->box.x, transfer->box.y, transfer->box.z,
                       src, 0, &sbox);
+       rctx->b.flush(&rctx->b, NULL, 0);
 }

level,
---- SNIP ----

However, doing this seriously hurts the performance of games that are
programmed properly. I encourage you to forward this message to the developers,
telling them they should take a look at Section 5.3.1 of the OpenGL 4.5
(Compatibility Profile) specification, specifically the part about using Finish
or FenceSync/WaitSync.
