Repository files navigation

This repository contains the scripts I use to buildWineD3D For Windows.

You can get prebuilt DLL files frommy website

If you're trying to fix an old game, youmust use the 32 bit version, even on 64 bit systems.

These scripts were tested on Arch Linux and Debian. Older versions of this project supported Debian exclusively.

To build WineD3D, you'll need to download some libraries first, most of them are probably already installed in your system. It isstrongly recommended to use a dedicated VM for building.

Arch, Manjaro, etc. (Recommended)

Debian, Ubuntu, etc.
Note: you need to use a 32 bit version of Debian to build the 32 bit DLLs and a 64 bit version for the 64 bit ones.

sudo apt build-dep winesudo apt install mingw-w64 git

Latest version of WineD3D

sh build32.sh

The build process will take some time, at the end, you'll find 2 directories called wined3d and wined3d-staging, which will contain the build DLLs. The staging variant is built usingwine-staging, which may improve compatibility.

Specific version of WineD3D
If you want to build a specific version of WineD3D, all you have to do is download the tarball of the version you want to build, extract it, and run

sh build32.sh path_to_source_code/

The build process will take some time, at the end, you'll find 2 directories called wined3d and wined3d-staging, which will contain the build DLLs. The staging variant is built usingwine-staging, which may improve compatibility.

Note that this build may fail on very old versions of Wine.

The 64 bit version of WineD3D is only useful to run 64 bit apps on 64 bit Windows, it isnot for old games.

To build 64 bit DLLs, simply replacebuild32.sh in the previous commands withbuild64.sh

Thanks to Syvat G for improving the patched version to enhance compatibility!
