Quoting: igarcerantI love DRM free games! of course, but I use to buy them also. Unfortunately GOG games on Linux tend to be 32 bits only. Please fix that! Most modern machines are 64bits and Ubuntu doesn't be fool proof in give support for mixed architectures. With over 100 games bought in GOG, I still don't play on Linux because the poor support for 64bits.Whether a Linux game is 32-bit or 64-bit is a bit beyond us since it's on the developer to build a game specifically for 64-bit architecture. Also, GameMaker for Linux doesn't come in 64-bits (that I know of) so that's an even taller order :)

Wine 3.3 is out with a start on Vulkan support, D3D multi-threaded command stream is on by default
3 Mar 2018 at 3:34 pm UTC
Also, CSMT in Wine (non-staging) is off by default for reasons such as the one you listed in your post.

Quoting: te_lanusWonder if it is possible to disable Direct3D multi-threaded command stream now with Wine 3.3, as there is one or two games that doesn't like itYou can turn CSMT on or off in Wine with the latest version of winetricks these days. Just fire up the winetricks GUI and you will see the setting for CSMT.

Quoting: razing32I wish there was a cheat DLC. This game kicks my ass into next Tuesday :(Enable the Precursor ship in the very beginning and you will breeze through the initial stuff :D There's a reason why it's called in-game HMS I Win Button.
Wine 3.0 RC5 released, it's a pretty quiet one
9 Jan 2018 at 10:20 am UTC
Just open up winetricks and you will see the option to turn on CSMT :)
9 Jan 2018 at 10:20 am UTC
Quoting: devlandYou can activate CSMT via winetricks these days :D Just make sure to update winetricks if you have an older version.Quoting: mrdeathjrAnd now with Wine 3.0rc5 (CSMT improve performance)Is CSMT enabled by default in wine 3? Are all CSMT features enabled?
I remember trying Witcher 3 in wine 3rc2 and getting a lot of graphical aberrations that are typical in wine-staging when not using CSMT.
Just open up winetricks and you will see the option to turn on CSMT :)
