A small test program might be usefull as well. I have a test program, and I can provide a diff with my d3d7 tomorrow. However, I think it will be better for you if I just provide a diff with my GetDC and a D3D9 test app, instead of the whole ddraw / d3d7 patch. I'll send this things tomorrow. Stefan

Initially I tried to merge portions of it in d3d8 but after some time it seemed to be too difficult as lots of parts need big changes. In the end I used his whole d3d8 dll (the patch for the d3d8 itself looked quite clean) I then added a few changes to the current wined3d to get it working and it works quite well. I tried lots of d3d8 demos from codesamples.com and most work except for the ones which use shaders. Roughly the same for the demos from the dx8.1 sdk except some of those fail because they can't detect some hw features (hw bumpmapping..) or they crash because of our buggy dmusic.dll. I don't have much games here, I tried the demo of warcraft 3 and it working (although with drawing errors) but performance looked a lot faster (the drawing errors contribute for a small portion to the performance improvement I think). I made a patch against wine 0.9.7 which can be found here: http://roderick.student.utwente.nl/d3d8.tar.gz. The patch contains small diffs of all files and a file containing all diffs in one file. All people who want to work on d3d8 can use this as a starting point. It might even be a good idea to merge this patch into cvs although it will break things. Basicly it exposes bugs in wined3d which need to be fixed. Roderick

I didn't say there is no other Win64 app, but that there are few. The example I happened to pick has a Linux native version. If you want to say instead, that nearly all Win64 apps also have Win32 equivalents, that's fine too. The only one I can think of that doesn't, or won't, is Exchange, and it doesn't work on Wine anyway, and won't for the foreseeable future. --Juan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Not 100% correct, there's also a Win64 version of Far Cry. But there's still a 32 Bit version of that game. (Of course there are other Win64 apps too, but I don't think any Wine user has interest in them, since they are part of Win64 :) )

What people could work on is a centralized, WineHQ-managed database of options (some sort of Application Database but automated). Basically, people would connect to this database and get their Wine configuration automatically updated to get best performance on 'officially supported' games / applications. The only real problem I would see with that scheme would be if multiple applications have the same name (like for example 'game.exe') as this would render the whole 'override' stuff useless.
