Hello,
since the update to wine 7 it is not possible to run mostly Unreal Engine 4 games.
In the log there were indications that something might be wrong with the xaudio 2_7 dll.
So I just applied faudio via winetricks and the games work again.
Unfortunately this is not a permanent solution as there is a bug on platforms like Mac OS, FreeBSD that if you use native,buildin xaudio the sound does not work correctly in terms of stuttering and slightly distorted sound.
As far as I know the games worked correctly in Wine 6.0.1.
Unfortunately it is not possible for me to test more in wine-devel because the port is very often defective and also just once again not working. (Last version tested was 7.21 and it was there too)
Thanks in advance!
