Wine 4.6 is officially out with the start of a Vulkan backend for WineD3D

Quoting: cRaZy-bisCuiTInstead of "Settlers 2" you could also play "Return to the Roots". It's a Open Source implementation of the game and it does run very well and plays like Settlers II.
Yes i know, but i mean the Remastered Version in 3D.

A quick Internet search suggests that Settlers 2 for Windows is actually an OpenGL game, and Anno 1404 is D3D10. I'm assuming you have the re-master versions, since the Settlers games were originally DOS-based - I used to quite enjoy them myself back in the 90s.
If you want to play Anno1404, you have to change to Directx9 otherwise the game not even starts.

Both Games are starting. But if i move the mouse, i have a kind of flickering. I guess the Shaders not working properly. But i tried everything i knew so far. Wine32 bit, Wine64 bit. Starting with Proton, etc.

So far nothing works. I mean you can play , but it hurts in the eyes after a while.

Do i get i right? This can solve Problems with DirectX9?
Games with DirectX9 still not running very good in my System.
Still trying to get Anno 1404 and Settlers 2 to get work.
