Is there no wine mono x64 for download?

Post by CaffeineAddict »

I'm currently using wine staging within Lutris and recommended mono to install is 9.0

I go to link below to download it:
https://dl.winehq.org/wine/wine-mono/9.0.0/

Problem I have is that there is x86 msi package but no x64 msi package.
I downloaded x86 msi package and have installed it into wine prefix by using uninstaller from winetricks.

My question are,
Why is there only x86 package and no x64 package?
Will my x64 games work fine with x86 mono package?

During first time setup of wine it offers me to auto download mono, which package is downloaded? x86 msi or some other?

The 32-bit and 64-bit libraries are combined in one package. Most of it is shared between cpu architectures.

thanks for letting me know!
So the package should then be called wine-mono-9.0.0-x86_64.msi right?
instead of wine-mono-9.0.0-x86.msi

But OK, now that I know what's inside it's fine, thanks again.
