        How exactly do the games run with box or wine once box and wine are installed??
        Is there a guide somewhere?? About how to use them with games?
        Thanks in advance

                Good day so the Retro Devils and supreme team have been working hard to simplthis wine install.

                We have made a one line installer . It also does the following

                • uses qjoypad to map controls from keyboard to your controller
                • loads different layout per game .
                • launches exe directly from emulation station .
                • has ui for installing mugen or just wine and box86.

                Heres our github . With how to load new games , map controls for each game etc.

                  I am not using Box86/Wine at the moment.
                  So much other things to do ;-)

                  But this development sounds really COOL !

                    Update: i'm using the Box86 Master version (latest 0.2.5), Mesa 21.3.2 and Wine v-6.22 or 7.0-rc2. I've encountered no new problems with this combo ...

                          @retropieuser555 did you configured anything special? I've can't solve the garbled colors problem (beside this the game works).

                          I've tried the normal fallout version en de HD version. Both have the same problem.

                              @jajalobrit I think I installed it directly from a Redist folder along with the game I was installing. That or it installed with GOG automatically prompting for it. I think Neverwinter Nights was the game that I used that included it.

                                  @jajalobrit how to install a game in wine?
                                  Just put in the script the folder with the installer and execute the exe?
                                  Is really DirectX does a difference?

                                    Jagged Alliance 2 (GoG) worked just by copying

                                    KKND2 started after installing directx. Runs kind of smooth in the menues and videos but crashes when entering real game

                                          For directx:

                                          https://www.dedoimedo.com/games/wine-directx.html

                                          i used directx_Jun2010_redist while OS=WinXP
                                          i also added another library via winecfg dnsapi (Builtin,Native)

                                          Today I tried Warcraft III and after some settings it works.

                                          • installed it over Desktop in C:\Games Folder , dont know if necessary because the game could start after adding an empty folder in /mnt/ to force wine to create a cdrom drive. Added -opengl flag and linked to war3.exe. Before installation you need to install fonts with winetricks i dont know which so i installed all which is a long process and you dont see a thing... Game is version 24b in 21b there were missing textures for fonts.

                                          my sh looks like this

                                          xset -dpms s off s noblank
                                          cd "/home/pi/.wine/drive_c/Games/WarcraftIII/"
                                          matchbox-window-manager & 
                                          WINEDEBUG=-all LANG="de_DE.UTF8" LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/opt/retropie/supplementary/mesa/lib/" setarch linux32 -L /opt/retropie/emulators/wine/bin/wine 'C:/Games/WarcraftIII/war3.exe' -opengl

                                            Lula - The sexy Empire (GOG) works too. Just copy the folders and make sure there is a folder in "/mnt/" like e.g. "/mnt/disk/" otherwise the cd check of the game fails and it wont start
