[PATCH 0/2] MR6841: wow64: Support running a BT module provided suspend routine.
by Billy Laws (＠bylaws) May 4, 2026

May 4, 2026

Suspension in JITs cannot easily be handled on the unix side, so allow BT modules to provide their own suspend helper. This purely supports local thread suspension currently. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/6841

[PATCH 0/2] MR8414: Fix EV Nova game text truncation.
by Zhiyi Zhang (＠zhiyi) April 29, 2026

April 29, 2026

Fix the rectangle from DrawText(..., DT_CALCRECT) with a selected font might not be enough to actually draw text with the font for the EV Nova game. This ensures that text extent calculated with a font selected in a device context is enough when drawing texts using the same font and device context. The root cause is that FreeType might report different font metrics for different GGO formats. GetTextExtentExPoint() gets text extent with GGO_METRICS. And GGO_METRICS gets font metrics from glyphs loaded with FT_LOAD_TARGET_NORMAL, so when drawing bitmap fonts, which is of GGO_BITMAP format loaded with FT_LOAD_TARGET_MONO, with the calculated text extent, the result text might get truncated because of the font metrics difference. On Windows, anti-aliased font and bitmap font of the same face font reports the same font metrics so such a problem doesn't happen. The ultimate fix is to let FreeType hint the bitmap fonts with the same font metrics as anti-aliased fonts but there are no settings that can achieve it unless we write a new FreeType hinter.

[PATCH v4 0/1] MR8794: shell32: Restore the ability of running unix executables via unix paths
by Yuxuan Shui (＠yshui) April 17, 2026

April 17, 2026

MobaXTerm tries to ShellExecute "/bin/sh" when running under wine. This ability to run unix executables on the host via unix paths was accidentally removed in the attemp to align ShellExecute more closely with native, while fixing the problem that sometimes wrong executable is started by ShellExecute (e.g. in Motor Race Collection).

April 12, 2026

Allows the Adobe Photoshop Elements installer to get slightly further than before The `E_FAIL` check for switching to int while there's a non-integer string isn't needed for the installer and is just something I hit accidentally when trying to write the test cases. Should I leave it in? -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/1338

[PATCH v4 0/1] MR9038: Draft: msi: implement MsiProvideAssembly[AW]()
by Ratchanan Srirattanamet (＠ratchanan.sr) March 31, 2026

March 31, 2026

TODO: - make awstring version of MsiProvideComponent() and use that. - Actually implement MsiProvideAssemblyA() using the above. - Write conformance test? Dependency: - Have ACTION_PublishAssemblies() record feature (https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/9037) - Have MsiEnumFeatures() fixed. Currently it seems to just look for features at the wrong place and thus is useless for this purpose. (https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/9041) Wine-Bug: https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=58578 -- v4: [WIP] msi: implement MsiProvideAssembly[AW]() https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/9038
