Hey how did you get Test Drive Unlimited 2 to behave? I've been getting this issue [External Link] for a while now. Or have they fixed it in this very version? (I haven't tested in 3.10 yet) Do you do anything special with it?

Btw I think you should put the graphics settings in Contrast on max, they work and look great. :)
Hi

In my case works as see in video

However i use retail + scene nodvd + descompressed game for mods and tdu universal launcher 3.6

Quoting: legluondunetWith the last Wine version (3.9 and 3.10), you can now launch Bioshock 1 remastered and Darksiders Warmastered Edition.

However vulkan have issues

Various issues stay in 1.7.0 development for solved case resize windowed using vulkan

But in middle of this, them add opengl multithreading acccording devs this shows performance improvement

OpenGL backend now properly multithreaded, giving a
good speed boost.


In my case stay running good

More Later

Unreal Gold still running

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eetU6YV7V4 [External Link]

Anachronox still running good too

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gC7RAZWBToo [External Link]

vkd3d requires libvkd3d, this can be compiled using this:

Wine 3.8 is out with an MP3 decoder and plenty of fixes

In this wine version have mp3 decoder: potentially could affect some titles with mp3 music case oblivion, fallout 3 and others?
What is the issue with Oblivion/Fallout 3? The last time I played them, they ran almost perfect, only thing I had to do is set "winegstreamer" to disabled in wineconfig as it was crashing the game.
I test oblivion and in before test music folder will be renamed but now runs ok without rename folder and dont need disable winegstreamer in test

In my case build wine for this is needed: libmpg123-dev
