Wine Staging 2.0 available, also new on the state of Vulkan, DX11 and more

I tested Hitman: Absolution and only benchmarks:

First run with default settings:
Low - 9FPS
avg - 10FPS
max - 15FPS

Second run with Lowest preset
Low - 9FPS
avg - 10FPS
max - 16FPS

Tested only virtual desktop, VSync off and 1080p resolution. I tried with 720p resolution and I'm getting same results. Enabling CSMT HMA.exe crashes.
Good to see improvements for this game in the future.

Used Xeon + GTX 1060 3GB with closed drivers.

Great. I replaced my wine with wine-gaming-nine and Steam web and community are working flawlessly but the "Big picture" mode gives me the black screen.

Crysis 2 with DX11 mode and CSMT disabled the main menu works fine but the game is laggy and everything is black expect some NPCs are working.

Sniper Elite v2 works but in the menu it is messed up.

Doom 2016 works flawlessly with Vulkan.

Nexuiz on Steam is playable with virtual desktop and DX9 mode, sometimes crashes/freezes.

I'm trying next the Hitman: Absolution if it works now.

Do I have something missing or is anyone having same problems what I have?

Also great work.

I think I have found performance fix for this game and I can play this game with "high"-preset.

1. Start new game(Single Player Game)
2. When you are in game, press ESC
3. Go to Options -> Video
4. Press "Apply" once.
5. Go back to game.

6. Now exit game to the main menu
7. Start game what you made.
8. Now try to set "Gamma" a little bit lower, hit apply.
9. Put "Gamma" in default set as it was before lowering it.

This A15 is AMAZING. Now there is no more disturbing light problems.

I was wondering why my friends played this game.
So, I bought only one episode, played flawfessly on wine-staging and stopped playing it after 15 minutes.

What have you been playing on Linux recently and what do you think about it?

Now I'm playing Dead Island Definitive Edition, works great.
I mostly play:
- Binding of Isaac: Rebirth (+Afterbirth DLC)
- CS: GO
- Garry's mod
- Dying Light (100% played, but I still play it for fun)
- TF2
- ARK: Survival Evolved
(this list is too long but I'm too lazy to fill it)

I'm using these games as a benchmark:
- Tomb Raider(2013)
- Metro: Last Light Redux

I'm having some trouble with these games (native + Wine)
- Nexuiz(steam, wine)
- Crysis 2(wine, works only dx9, stuttering)
- DragonBall: Xenoverse(wine, works but no sound)
- The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim(wine, works but no sound)
- SNOW(native, does not start at all)
- other games what I want to run wine, is impossible (dark souls, gta v, just cause 2, battlefield 4 etc...)
