It’s good for that one game that doesn’t have a linux port or has a port that doesn’t work with modern versions of linux. For example, it’s easier to setup unreal tournament 1999 in wine than play the native port because it’s buggy
No. It just means windows only vulkan games can be played without trouble. dxvk is a wrapper for dx10-11, doesn't depend on wine and is strictly speaking, windows only.
Benjamin Gonzalez
No
Joseph Cruz
Almost everything. rpg maker mv is still a bitch and needs native nwjs binaries to work or by pretending to be windows xp.
Lucas Ward
Based
Dominic Bailey
Does it support text hookers? I need one to decrypt moon
Okay, I'll admit it, I am a brainlet as far as this is concerned. What old school games can I play on this ?. Like anything before 2005 ?. What about 32-bit games ?.
Julian Ortiz
>still can't into VSTs
what a load of shit lmao
what's the point of emulation windows if you can just use windows?
Landon Butler
Wine was already good for just about anything from the 32 bit era. This is more important for newer games
Angel Morgan
it probably runs more old games than windows at this point >What about 32-bit games ?. dude, it can even run 16-bit games
Jack Adams
Okay, I'll install it and some games I have. I'll post back...
Cameron Edwards
Because emulating windows is better at running older Windows programs than Windows.

>Tried installing.., failed retrieving file 'lib32-systemd-239.6-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz' from mirror.0x.sg : The requested URL returned error: 404 Not Found >Well there's a fucking surprise...
>using an actual meme distro when not even acquainted with linux. I mean you shouldn't use meme shit like Manjaro ever, but especially not if you're new to Linux.
Use something that actually works. Ubuntu and Fedora are supported for basically everything. (since Ubuntu/Debian is almost the 'default' linux now outside of enterprise where RHEL rules)
Isaac Davis
Can I fully escape windows yet as far as gaming goes? In my next build I'm so scared of having to go to windows 10.
Luis Jones
DXVK is C++, Wine is C, they don't want to pollute the codebase so it remains a separate project.
Super easy to just winelib it though so it doesn't matter too much.
eh you can always try out hybrid solutions if you absolutely need something to run. GPU passthrough works well enough. I'd rather run win10 in a cage than free reign on my system.
dual boot, VM, etc...
Owen Martin
Not really, but if you've got a spare GPU, you can escape it most of the time, without rebooting. KVM+PCI-e passthrough is a wonderous thing.
Ayden Ward
You have to pacman -Syu to update your repos before a pacman -S wine
Ryder Hughes
Also don't use arch if you: Don't want to deal with shit breaking as it updates Don't want to learn how the system works
Levi Smith
Well if it's in the actually repositories I'd expect the fucking thing to at least install. Maybe I'm expecting too much... I don't know. >Ubuntu/Debian No thanks. Anything helpful would have been nice...
Jason Robinson
Can I compile stuff for Windows under wine? I tried once with rust (pls no bully) and it complained that some win32 function wasn't implemented. A simple hello world worked though.
Have you tried running the VS C++ compiler on wine?
Levi Lewis
Hey if you want to play with crazy niche shit, expect crazy niche problems. Ubuntu just werks.
Chase Martinez
Yes. This fixed my problem. Thanks user.
Nolan Watson
>Well if it's in the actually repositories I'd expect the fucking thing to at least install. It's a 404, so it's probably just a case of your local mirror still rsync'ing.
Jace Bennett
Win16 games. DOS games require DOSbox now and wine just launches DOSbox.
Cooper Taylor
Yeah I've heard of GPU passthrough. My recent gaming system died but I was thinking to initially use my old 770 gtx card when I do to save some money. It'll still be probably a few months or more til I get the money but I mean if I am able to save could I use that as the secondary card? I don't fully get how that even works or would I have to be in an SLI/Crossfire situation with 2 similar cards? I've never done that before.
Jackson Sanders
I mean I am glad most of the components from it seem to still be working and it was just the cpu that died. But that stuff was 8 years old. The card was the only slightly newer thing in it.
Evan Brown
idk still running win 7 until the thing blows up or a suckless OS comes out. I'd run linux or a hackintosh on hardware before I run win10.
Julian Smith
wine-gcc. Use meson builds.
Eli Fisher
Tried installing Serious Sam FE... Nope, borked my vidya... I am now sitting in glorious 640x480x32 mode shit posting this. Why do I always listen to you fucking faggots. Nothing, I mean NOTHING has ever come good from it.
Nathaniel Butler
If you are a bit of a brainlet like me just

Samuel Wilson
Wine kinda works but sometimes I feel like it would be a lot less troublesome to just dualboot wangblows.
Jacob Bell
The computer I have to use right now I actually did put xubuntu in it since it was just an old core2duo mac that I got for free that was just going to be recycled and I was able to take it. While I can't really test gaming on it in any modern sense or at least how modern gaming wise I actually had cuz I'm a bit of a slowpoke, it's actually not that bad for basic stuff but not without it's glitches. But I guess I can live with it for awhile. So yeah, my first real daily use of linux, in the past I had used it some on lab computers or in virtual machines but never daily.
Landon Cooper
Does it come with big tiddie anime girl?
Christopher Foster
Nah, you want hydrus or such for that.
Isaac Barnes
Thank you sir.
Nathan Brooks
>so they merged valve proton? I don't think you understand what Proton is: it's WINE with some patches on top of it. Think of it like re-distributing Firefox with a theme and a plugin bundled with it. These Proton patches are being added upstream all the time, you could look at Proton as a stating tree for the DXVK parts of WINE.
>curious to see some tests. You can test it yourself. The Free Software foundation and the GNU Project have been fighting for you right to do that for decades and they have ensured that you and your family can have access to this. Just installl it and test, it's up to you. The Bilderberg group, the CFR and the IMF want to stop you but they can't without turning off the Internet. You have the power. Use it.
Brandon Evans
Yeah, almost every single one of them work. I think the only one that can make problems is vnr due to its retarded popup system blocking input on modern window managers. You still need msgothic to solve font issues and start every jap program with LC_ALL=ja_JP.UTF-8. Of course that locale needs to be enabled for the system. refer to distribution wiki for that.
Josiah Sanchez
Im in too deep brehs, Chromium has all my passwords saved and I don't even remember them all how can I switch now?
Asher Reed
VSTs work with it you brainlet.
Robert Moore
Just look into the password manager and copy them out. I don't use chromium but every proper password manager can display the credentials in plain text for you.
Brody Richardson
>69487646 run adobo meme swet
Eli Reyes
switching to 640x480 is normal for old games, it will do the same in windows as well i'm trying serious sam fe/se myself, setting it to 1080p is easy enough, but i'm getting weird graphics, improper occlusion? idk
kek, reading further, it's a game bug which is a result of improper windows/windows driver behaviour the games doesn't specify what depth/stencil buffer depth it wants, and it just gets back whatever happens to be the defaults from the windows driver for that mode/colour depth the game assumes it will get 16/16bit, but never actually asks for it or checks if it got that
Christian Butler
Interesting
Noah Ross
Damn... Dies Iraes now works, last time I tried this game I ran like complete garbage.
He forgot to arch equivalent "apt update" before the "apt install"
Lucas Richardson

Jason Robinson
Install Linux Mint and stop measuring your manhood by how difficult it is to install software.
Austin Bell
Why mint?
Parker Gutierrez
And yet Proton somehow is even less reliable than vanilla wine. What the fuck is Valve doing.
Easton Murphy
>it probably runs more old games than windows at this point Literally impossible, windows games run on windows (versions) but not on wine. >Because emulating windows is better at running older Windows programs than Windows. Again you faggots are retarded.
Parker Peterson
God wine is based, I can uninstall windows and keep my eroge thanks to it
Brody Torres
>being this stupid
Connor Edwards
I just installed wine 4 from the debian offical repos (see pic)
You've been able to do that for a while user. CodeWeavers pretty much exist soley to make msoffice work in Wine. codeweavers.com/compatibility/crossover/microsoft-office-2016 If it runs in crossover, it'll run in an equally new or newer version of wine.
Christopher Phillips
I would like to use this thread to say: fuck you Codeweavers.
Wyatt Butler
so does battleye work yet does ps2 work yet
Josiah Diaz
Without them wine would be as useful as ReactOS is now.
