Just over a year after the last main release, Wine 4.0 is officially here

QuoteI was going to make a pun, but I thought it would be in pour taste.

It's getting to a point where I read the Wine articles for these puns instead of the development updates.

WMV playback?

I hope that 2019 will bring finally Wayland support (at least in virtual desktop mode).

massatt212wish they did some improvements on the DX9 department, still have games like ultimate Marvel vs capcom 3 stuttering

stuttering in a few games can be solved by having an better hardware (or closing backgrounds programs if they are ressource intensive)

No, that's not it. There is a weird issue with some DirectX9 titles where either it runs smoothly or it runs really slow, even on high-end machines. A good example is X-Blades. Under Wine 4.0-rc6 it stutters. Under Proton it stutters. Under wine-staging is stutters. But under the snap steamforwindows, which uses wine-staging 3.10, it doesn't.
...and Warhammer 40,000: Space Marines, this one consistently stutters

So, when will we have proton 4.0?

In my case various dx9 titles works ok, in various cases as other said with better hardware improve*

*For this reason have my cpu at 5.0ghz / 215 cinebench single thread

Case:























































































































And many other games including various unreal engine 3 games

However wine have troubles with dx9 and stutter could be stay present in various machines, without forget other issues cases proper vsync support, high single thread use and others

Use the crack exe and it wont stutter Warhammer 40,000: Space Marines

So now Wine can handle most of the "modern" games with Vulkan support?
What's the point to use DXVK?
In which case DXVK is better than Wine 4 and vice versa?
Maybe I didn't understand something.

Comandante ÑoñardoI wonder if with this version on wine Bioshock 2 and Crysis can work in DX10.

In my case crysis 32bit DX10 works ok with proton, maybe can add in future test

Out of the box?
