There's a couple of VSTs (Hive, Repro..) that just won't show the UI. The synth engine works fine and makes sound, but no display is shown. I'm talking about 64bit plugins (the 32bit doesn't work at all).

I've read extensively about this (I'm not entirely new to LinVst, and have long experience in Linux) and tried out a whole lot of things, but it still doesn't work. Any input is much appreciated.

My setup:

Linux Mint 20.1 Kernel 5.4.0-74-lowlatency LinVst 4.5 Bitwig 4.0 beta 2 (and 3.3.10)

I'm running the wine prefix with 64bit architecture (I've also tried arch win32) and have these installed

winetricks corefonts
winetricks gdiplus
winetricks vcrun6sp6
winetricks vcrun2013
winetricks vcrun2015

I've also added and disabled the d2d1 dll.

Is there something very obvious/basic I'm missing here?

In advance, thank you very much :)

I tried the Repro demo out using Bitwig and Reaper and it seems ok.

I'm testing using Wine 6 Stable on Manjaro with no overrides or winetricks.

Sometimes the overrides can cause problems.

Repro and Hive have Linux versions as far as I know.

Ok, thank you for replying, I will try some more, maybe clean all sheets etc..
