Issue Wine 10.15

The latest experimental release of the open implementation of Win32 API, Wine 10.15 , has been published. Following the release of version 10.14, a total of 16 errors were addressed and 277 changes were implemented.

Some of the most significant changes in this release include:

  • Partial support for Drivers ntsync has been added, allowing for improved performance when running Windows games through Wine. The driver is now included in the Linux kernel starting from version 6.14 and features the symbolic device /DEV/NTSYNC along with synchronization primitives from the Windows NT kernel. This enhancement results in a boost in performance by eliminating the overhead costs associated with RPC in the user space.
  • The library opsservices , which is used for working with OPC packages (Open Packaging Conventions) as defined in the OOXML (Office Open XML) standard, now supports compression of packages using the ZIP64 format, enabling the archiving of files larger than 4GB.
  • Unicode characters have been updated to version 17.0.0.
  • Various errors affecting applications such as Visual Studio 2005, CMD.exe, Steam, and Capcut have been resolved.
  • Issues related to the performance of games like Exertus Darkness, Claw, and Bloodraynene Demo have been addressed.
