Whose Wine is it anyway? Wine 4.11 is out

By -

It's not quite the Wine o'clock news but it will do, Wine 4.11 is officially out. The Wine team continues progressing on and it's looking tasty.

Announcing the latest bottle being opened, Wine developer Alexandre Julliard has these new flavours features listed:

  • Updated version of the Mono engine, including Windows.Forms.
  • More DLLs are built as PE files by default.
  • Faster implementation of Slim Reader/Writer locks on Linux.
  • Initial support for enumerating display devices.

As for grapes bugs squashed, they noted only 17 this time around which include issues solved with SWAT4, Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver, Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF), Max Payne 3 and more.

I'm sure I've said this many times, to the point of sounding like a parrot by now but I think the work the Wine team do is truly incredible. The amount they have to support is absolutely insane and they just keep going!

You can find the full release announcement here.

Also, if you missed it, Canonical is planning to drop 32bit support with Ubuntu 19.10 onwards which could pose some issues for Wine. Take a look if you missed it.

QuoteBugs fixed in 4.11

Nice, I hope this fixes SKSE64 too. Hopefully Proton rebases on more recent Wine soon.

With this wine version and previous(maybe), 64-bit script extenders (mainly 4 Bethesda games) are meant to work.

QuoteMore DLLs are built as PE files by default.
What does it mean? What kind of files are DLL in Wine? I thought all DLL files are PE by default, or do it means the file that previously were .so are .dll now?

If so and I understand it correctly, then it's interesting, as it means more MinGW-GCC usage instead of regular GCC, so kinda opposite of DXVK winelib was supposed to achieve?

@massatt212 I'd also recommend https://github.com/Tk-Glitch/PKGBUILDS/tree/master/proton-tkg especially for those at Arch and deriviatives :)

Awesome. Unfortunately I didn't manage D9VK to work with it.
