The "what works" with Box86/Wine topic on the RPI4/400
-
Inspired by the great scripting work of @George I will sum up which Window games work with the Box86/Wine combination on our Pi4's or 400's. George created install scripts which will install mesa with Vulkan support/ Box86 and Wine... this is the game changer.
For installation instructions see:
https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/28528/box86-and-wine-on-rpi4/
All games stated below in separate replies run on my RetroPie 4 build, overclocked to 2100Mhz en Pi400 Raspian OS install overclocked to 2375Mhz/775Mhz (Gpu). All wine-prefixes (bottles) are build on my Pi400 and then exported to my Pi4.

Age of Empires 2. Works stable, larger playfields can slow down the system but not always.
-
Commandos 1. Works very stable, no intro videos (wine issue).
-
The Settlers 3, no intro videos, works stable with occasional slowdowns.
-
Blitzkrieg 1 and Rolling Thunder/Burning Horizon works with videos (very nice videos even). Playing however will lead to throttling on the Pi4. Screenresolution 102476832 gives an acceptable performance. Map screen shows some distortion.
-
The game I absolutely want to play on my Pi4 ... Thimbleweed Park .... sound only ... no display output. So this is hopeful.
-
Space Cadet, no music, other wise works fine, maybe some crackling sound, see fix in @George 's install topic.

Unreal Tournament, software rendering works. Still experimenting with other drivers.
