Can now enable zip file system read/write cache. This will copy files that are read or written to out of the zip and to the host file system. When not enabled, only file writes are copied from the zip file system to the host.

Kind of went down the rabbit hole on this one. As I was testing on mac I noticed that I don't launch games from the UI into a new process like I do on Linux and Windows. If the game crashes, it also remove the UI. Turns out this is a very hard thing to do with sandboxed apps on Mac. I finally figured out how to launch the app, but it turns out for sandboxed apps you can supply command line arguments. So I had to invent a way to communicate between the UI process and the game process. I chose to do this via text files. There is a more official way of doing it with a helper app, but that looked even harder.

x86: signal handler will now copy data about the signal and exit to a function that will handle it. This seems to be the recommended way to handle signals, to do as little possible in the actual signal. I also fixed a bug where it was possible for processes to overlap memory. Now Caesar, Diablo and WineMine work with x64.

added osmesa back. I forgot that mac needs. I updated mac's osmesa to 25.0.0 and it now uses llvmpipe, this was done for Arm64, I still need to update intel. Cinebench and TombRaider worked well and Motorhead froze after first screen when using osmesa on mac m4.

Boxedwine

Boxedwine is an emulator that runs Windows applications. It achieves this by running a 32-bit version of Wine, and emulating the Linux kernel and CPU. It is written in C++ with SDL and is supported on multiple platforms.

Boxedwine is open source and released under the terms of the GNU General Public License v2 (GPL).

Features

Runs 16/32-bit Windows programs
Works on Windows, MacOSX, Linux, and Web
Can run multiple versions of Wine, from 3.1 to 10.0
Apps and games using OpenGL, Direct3D and Vulkan are supported

TODOs

Emscripten/Web Boxedwine is still slow, need to implement a JIT. Multi-threaded build also studders with sound.
Mac OpenGL does not work with frame buffers
Games after the year 2010 have limitted success at running
Newer versions of .NET don't work
Joystick support

Platforms being tested

Emscripten (WASM)
Linux 64-bit x86/Arm64
MacOSX (ARM)
Windows 32-bit
Windows 64-bit x86/Arm64
