For now thanks to dxvk directx 8-9-10-11 games in most cases works (wined3d normally have a very low performance compared dxvk)

However dx7 and lower still cursed for opengl32 situation in new wow64 (working extension could improve but as other said seems dont show activity)

Sadly alpinedreams dont show activity on this:

In my case use new wow64 and many apps work however some dont work

However 32bit dependencies hell are gone with new wow64, only need 64bit development dependencies for build biarch wine:

./configure --enable-archs=i386,x86_64
