I think there must be separate thread for binary releases and discussion about.

 

24.10.2015

I made Sherry based on Wine branch Staging with my Hackintosh specific patches.

As well there are my mathematical investigations for textures and surfaces.

Full log

- security checks if some game wrong using Windows API. WineHQ will crash. Sherry will return "invalid call" for game to decide what to do.

- reduce a number of tracing leading to lags
- reduce repeated messages in logs
- implemented D3DXSaveVolumeToFile, including save .dds files with compression
- implemented support for DXTn compressed textures. There is a support in Stage but with external library and without Volume support. Sherry has this support.
- implemented smooth filtering. It will be noticeable when small textures stretched to larger surface.
- support for textures with several levels. It was partially supported in WineHQ. Stage has no correspondent patches.
- check for wide range of Videocards (MacOSX specific)
- correct OSX 10.7.5 graphics bug. So called AMDSpeedHack but affected Geforce 7300 as well. Sherry is faster then WineStage and CrossOver.
- implemented a possibility to set custom quirks workarounds. For example preventing crash of Heroes VI
- some support for new DirectX formats like DX9ex
- check for GL_TIMEOUT_EXPIRED_APPLE. I may note that wine-stage is Linux specific while Sherry is Mac OSX specific.
- crop images to not write out of window preventing crashes
- implemented transparency by color key. It was used in some sprite games.
- I also accepted patches from other people that are not accepted into WineHQ with different reasons, 34166, 35397
- several security and optimization fixes

I spend some time to create new version Sherry based on

Wine-2.11 + Staging-2.11 almost full patchset + most of Sherry patches which are not obsolete.

I have to mention that sometimes wine developers accepted my ideas by making them own way. OK, I am happy that my ideas accepted even without my copyrights.

Wine-4.0 announced

https://www.winehq.org/announce/4.0

Many news here although... they are mostly dream. 

I practice the engine works better then previous and contains letter bugs.

The main for me that the bug with white water in Heroes VI is resolved. It's a pity not resolved darkness bug.

As well Unigine Heaven is still not working in DX11 mode. Only in DX9.

The patch for bug 39057 is still not implemented. I did.

There is my compilation

It should not be opened.

The file used as is in Wineskin which has own routines to unpack.

I tested. Download the file from my post and unpack it. No issue!
