Yes, Windows program API emulation on top of x86 processor architecture emulation
Might be serious potential for an Android handheld to rival the Steam Deck. Any whispers about a release date for this or open sourcing?
Wine fork will be open source, the frontend will be closed source for a while. No release date yet, only year.
frontend will be closed source for a while
i.e. forever
To prevent malicious forks of the app like Skyline by mr purple. All is there on Cassia Discord Server with renewed FAQ section.
Discord? What, did nobody have an Xfire room? That doesn't inspire confidence.
Ootl but why is Skyline by mr purple counts as a malicious fork?
Nice, very interesting!
So can Cassia Wine play any DX9 game since you mentioned GTA IV or there are other limitations?
No limitations. Directx 8 and above supported. 32 bit games including the gta games before V and GTA V too with 64 bit support.
So potentially Blizzard games etc? Would be great perhaps on a tablet.
Whatever works in wine or proton will work in Cassia.
I see that you accidentally posted this to [email protected] at first. Thanks for reposting it to the right community!
Most welcome.
This is fucking awesome, I'm so excitedπ₯π€©
The fact that this is possible blows my mind. I personally can't wait to play Sims 3 on a Tablet.
