dxwrapper
Fixes compatibility issues with older games running on Windows 10/11 by wrapping DirectX dlls. Also allows loading custom libraries with the file extension .asi into game processes.
>I only wish Wine also allowed me to zoom 2x or 3x, but this is where Gamescope comes in
Also possible using dxwrapper (for DirectX 7-9 games):
https://github.com/elishacloud/dxwrapper
Similarly to dxvk, you drop a few DLLs into the game directory then edit one config file. No need to use a dedicated program.

Linux kernel source tree: Versioned branches add patches I'm using in my running kernel in production, some used for low-latency gaming. If you like my work, consider donating me a coffee: (by kakra)
I was surprised of the new attempt for performance profiles/device roles/hints when we already have a very good patch set maintained by kakra.
