[1.2]-Do DirectX 10 Games Work In Wine Yet?

Hi,

Running Wine 1.2 32bit on Ubuntu 10.04 32bit.
I have a new Direct X 10 graphic card: nVidia GeForce GT 240 1GB.

Do Direct X 10 games work yet in Wine 1.2?
Was just wondering.
Thanks!

Jesse

Not really. Wine has about 5% of dx10 implemented.

Keep checking back on the current development stream, Wine 1.3 as more
and more DirectX10 code is added.

It would be nice if you could run your game in Wine to see what does and
does not work with each release as well.

Even if original source code was leaked from Microsoft, the Wine project wouldn't use it as it's trying to be 100% legal.

Even if there would be a directx for linux, you would still missing the driver for it.

Because M$ has an ARMY of lawyers and would shut this project down in a
matter of minutes if we used 'leaked' code. They do not play well with
those who use stolen code.

We MUST develop from clean room processes and this does take time.

That is why I recommended coming back and seeing what does/does not work
with your DirectX10 program with each development build.

We have made major strides in DirectX9 support and it is far from
complete as well.
