Quoting: TheLinuxPlebI wonder what the exclusive fullscreen in the changelogs mean?
Yeah, not sure. There is no such concept in winewayland.
Some old games needs exclusive fullscreen or they become unstable and can crash.
This Wine feature probably makes the application believe it's using exclusive fullscreen?

Check out the great enhancement patch for the original Splinter Cell

I've thoroughly tested this patch by writing a Lutris script where I use it with the GOG version of Splinter Cell. It's very stable and brings the game closer to the best console edition (Xbox).

The full controller compatibility is a huge plus, and the patch is also compatible with editions of Splinter Cell that use languages ​​other than English.

Ubisoft should compensate this developer for their work, which should have been done during the game's port from consoles to PC.

I'm still using Xorg because:

- XFCE is not yet compatible with Wayland, will be compatible in next version
- I need a stable gaming experience

Is wayland mature today for a day by day use and for a gamer config?

I'm using a AMD GPU.
