Wine 6.13 release and Wine staging 6.13

An experimental branch of the open implementation of WinAPI β€” Wine 6.13 β€” has been released. Since the release of version 6.12, 31 bug reports have been closed and 284 changes have been made.

The most important changes:

  • Implemented correct theme support for scrollbars.
  • Work continued on transferring WinSock and IPHLPAPI to libraries based on the PE (Portable Executable) format.
  • Preparations have been made to implement the GDI system call interface.
  • Bug reports for the following games have been closed: Sims 4, Doom 3, Academagia, SkySaga, Far Cry 4, CARS 2, Dishonored 2, INSIDE, The Hong Kong Massacre, Sniper Elite 3, World of Warcraft, Battlefield 4.

At the same time, the release of the Wine Staging 6.13 project was formed, within which extended builds of Wine are formed, including patches that are not fully ready or risky, not yet suitable for acceptance into the main Wine branch. Compared to Wine, Wine Staging provides 608 additional patches.

The new release is synchronized with the Wine 6.13 codebase. Two patches have been translated into the main composition of Wine: fixing an error when copying and pasting through the clipboard in mfplat; disable connections for listening or already connected sockets in Wineserver.
