Do DXVK winetricks do anything for 32bit D3D9 games? Also what's the setup steps?

Do I just run dxvk1101_macOS winetrick? What about moltenvk?
I'm having trouble with an old game with vsync, with vsync enabled I get hugely inconsistent frame rates (not really stutter, just framerate going on a rollercoaster).

Nope, currently only wine64 supports Vulkan via MoltenVK.

Some older games simply won’t run decently via wine32on64 this may or may not improve in CX22 (nightly seem to indicate no improvements)

For example Red Alert2 requires the use of cnc-ddraw to become playable but that’s also the case with upstream wine.

The only thing todo is looking into if there’s another solution that doesn’t require using DXVK or some other dx9>dx10/11 type wrappers.

I found this which I tried and works on Windows: https://github.com/elishacloud/dxwrapper
But I can't seem to get it to work in a wrapper. Any extra steps I need to follow to get d3d9 dlls to load?

If you’ve added say d3d9.dll and the other support dlls into the games directory you’ll also need to set d3d9.dll to native,builtin this can be done via winecfg.

K thanks, it worked but it kinda created more problems... Guess there's really no way for this game.
