Wine 11.7 is out now for this impressive compatibility layer to run Windows apps and games on Linux. Another biweekly release bringing new features and bug fixes, and just recently Valve upgraded Proton with a new Beta based on Wine 11.

The main highlights of this release are:

  • Beginnings of MSXML reimplementation without libxml2.
  • VBScript compatibility fixes and optimizations.
  • SRGB filter support in D3DX.
  • 7.1 speaker configuration in DirectSound.
  • Various bug fixes.

The developers noted 35 bug fixes across the likes of Stratego (1997), Act of War: Direct Action, VOCALOID6, In Falsus and more. It also seems it will now default to Windows 10 instead of Windows 7.
