Wait, isn't the current wine-staging version having CSMT enabled?

Essentially, yes.

https://wine-staging.com/news/2016-05-18-release-1.9.10.html

For those who rely on the CSMT feature, we have some good news though. In the mean time the complete CSMT patchset has been rewritten to use the new texture approach and is now included in Wine Staging 1.9.10. You can therefore safely update from 1.9.5 and continue to enjoy all the performance improvements. Stefan Dösinger, the author of the patchset, also indicated that he fixed some bugs during the update, so it might be a good idea to retest applications which previously didn't work well with CSMT.

In this wine version appear some interesting things like now apps appear in taskbar (minimize to taskbar works)

Respect DX11 in sayonara umihara kawase* fonts appears correctly in this wine version and now game is completly playable

In other titles DX11 like farcry 3 now appears steam fps overlay correctly, sound works too but screen stay black

On DX10 side devil may cry 4 DX10 crash at begins (lost planet appears same situation)

*in other issue not related with wine but more with screen recording, in this recording with NVENC performance up compared to SSR recording

You Americans with your "Bi Weekly" (in the rest of the world this means twice a week) instead of "Fortnightly" (once every two weeks)...

from m-w:

Full Definition of biweekly

1: occurring twice a week
2: occurring every two weeks : fortnightly

...lol

How utterly presumptuous; here in NL, "bi-weekly" most decidedly means having bisexual relations every week.

j/k, obviously.

Bi-Weekly also sounds like one of those trashy magazines you see at the checkout
