Wine 1.9.22 Brings Direct2D Bitmap Rendering

[Guest]

What do you guys use Wine for?

Guild Wars 2 and osu! on my main computer, Diablo II on my HTPC.

Picasa, WoW, and EVE Online here.

I'll also echo the Jetbrains recommendation. We use IntelliJ IDEA at work a bunch, and I've heard decent things about their non-Java releases as well.

They offer time-limited free trials, and I believe there's a free community license for most of their products.

I'm one of the holdouts on my team, still sticking with my Netbeans... and I won't touch Eclipse with a 10-foot pole.

I don't have Wine installed anymore. When I had it, I used it for WinMerge and Portal 2.

I used to play StarCraft2 with wine. But, for some months I couldn't get it running again.
The endless updates for Battle.net and StarCraft2 seem to require new settins/wine versions/whatever to get it running.

Does anybody has it working? Any hints?
(The last time I tried the recommendations on winehq and playonlinux without success).

The last time I've used the Battle.net launcher was about a month after Legion released, so I'm not really sure if anything changed after that point, but the only thing I needed to do was to set a dll override on msvcp140. Here's the command I used to get the B.net app started:

 
 mkdir -p ~/'Wine Prefixes' && wget 'https://us.battle.net/download/getInstaller?os=win&installer=Battle.net-Setup.exe' -O ~/'Downloads/Battle.net-Setup.exe' && WINEPREFIX=~/'Wine Prefixes/World of Warcraft' WINEARCH='win64' WINEDLLOVERRIDES='msvcp140=n,b' wine ~/'Downloads/Battle.net-Setup.exe'

Most guides just set the override from winecfg.

Thank you. I'll try it tonight.

There are multiple SC2 bugs open. https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41071 https://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41090 and battle.net needs winetricks -q corefonts. It may still not work. Can't test.
