Affinity Designer in Wine???

This finally let my PC run Crysis . Going to test Kingdom Come and see it it runs better than on previous DXVK versions.
DXVK has been crashing all of my DX9 games, so for me at least DXVK is strictly DX10/11.

My guess as to why DX9 games keep crashing on Your system is in the way You install DXVK.

Here's the proper way to do it:

1.
Update winetricks with this command:

sudo winetricks --self-update

2.
Install DXVK this way into the games' prefix:

WINEPREFIX=~/path/to/prefix winetricks --force dxvk

This way, winetricks will automagically install all the neccessary DX9 DLLs from Microsoft into the right prefix, which is not only recommended but instead absolutely required, since WINE's implementation of these generate buggy code, as stated by its main developer JoshuaAshton
