Wine-Staging 11.5 Released With A Few New Patches

Building off Friday's exciting release of Wine 11.5 with Syscall User Dispatch support, Wine-Staging 11.5 is now available for this experimental/testing build of Wine that at the moment is some 228 patches atop the upstream code.

Wine-Staging had been carrying the Syscall User Dispatch support for NTDLL to handle x86_64 syscall emulation, which is now thankfully upstream in Wine 11.5. But there are a few new patches too making it into Wine-Staging 11.5 for other matters.

Wine-Staging 11.5 does add JSON array and object parsing support to windows.web. That was done for this bug report over PowerToys failing to install. That bug report is back from July 2024.

Wine-Staging 11.5 also adds support for the IRadialControllerInterop interface to windows.ui, which was done for this year old bug report over Clip Studio Paint 4 not working in compatibility mode for Windows 10 or Windows 11.

Beyond those couple new patches, Wine-Staging 11.5 has also updated against the latest upstream Git state of VKD3D for Direct3D 12 atop Vulkan.

Both Wine 11.5 and Wine-Staging 11.5 downloads are available from WineHQ.org.
