Wine development continues the rapid advancements with another biweekly release giving us Wine 3.17 today.
Here's the highlights of the release:
- Improved Shell Autocomplete support.
- More implementation of OPC Services.
- Improvements to the Pager common control.
- Various bug fixes.
For the bug fixes there's improvements for Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China, League of Legends, Watch Dogs as well as a few other fixes affecting multiple games and applications.
See the official announcement here.
It's going to be interesting to see when Valve update Steam Play's Proton with a new version of Wine, which just had a new beta release today. They may just continue cherry picking patches to help with specific games as they're doing at the moment, interesting times.

I wonder what Codeweavers are up to in Crossover after all the noise Proton has done and the game centered updates for Wine upstream. Will they focus on the enterprise side of Windows apps?
