It works VERY well (much better than DXVK imo) The only reason why DXVK won in the end is, because you can't use it with the proprietary nvidia driver.

People DID use it on hardware that doesn't support Vulkan. You had to use a gallium driver though (like amdgpu, nouveau, iris/crocus for intel), but most GPUs do have gallium drivers on Linux. Then all you had to do was to replace the directx9 dlls with these: https://github.com/iXit/wine-nine-standalone You can easily install them via winetricks:

CODE:

winetricks gallium9

Unfortunately Mesa removed support for it starting with 25.2. If you use Debian stable though you're likely using a version older than that, so you can still use native DirectX9 in Debian 13.

This is the commit that removes it: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/commit/?__goaway_challenge=meta-refresh&__goaway_id=d925ab5b44b92cb77e7fba922efea5c6&__goaway_referer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.phoronix.com%2F&id=00aaef9f12f6b27375e4c351fad9e6786cd0a3ad I think you can compile the latest version of mesa with this commit reverted and it should still work. Would be an interesting mesa fork.
