Developer Alexandre Julliard announced the release of Wine 9.19, the Windows compatibility layer that allows thousands of apps and games to run on Linux.

The main changes of this release are:

  • Character tables updates to Unicode 16.0.0.
  • Better window positioning in the Wayland driver.
  • More support for network sessions in DirectPlay.
  • Support for plug&play device change notifications.
  • Various bug fixes.

11 bugs were noted as solved from this release across various expected Windows behaviour, along with some regressions being fixed.

Is there a particular bug or feature you're waiting on being sorted in Wine?

And with this wine run this:

Also same lollipop chainsaw repop* have d3d11 renderer for use it must be add -dx11

*both games are unreal engine 5

With regular settings dont pass 17fps, with my modified settings up to around 27-28fps

Quoteon Engine.ini add this lines

r.AmbientOcclusionLevels=0
r.BloomQuality=0
r.DefaultFeature.AntiAliasing=0
r.DepthOfFieldQuality=0
r.fog=0
r.MaxAnisotropy=8

Also allow change values using hex editor like HxD,

after this black bars are completly removed in my case and appear like this:











at simple seek still using my custom settings, i think need around Radeon 760M overclocked (ddr5 7200mhz) or Radeon 780M on igp side for see around 60fps performance

Quoting: iodI wonder if Wine will ever recognize the correct locale for non-english apps.. People keep telling me it's not Wine's job to do so but Windows does it somehow no problem.
I was pretty sure that on Windows I would still run into a bunch of question marks in place of fonts in non-unicode apps and would have to dig into some ancient control panel section to change the default non-unicode language or something like that. It's been a while since I ran into one of those but pretty sure it still happened on windows 10
