I can confirm those patches (and alot more) already included here https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-patched/releases (download the staging ones) but patches are missing in 1.8.1-1.8.5 (no staging release). Will give a try staging 1.8.0 tonight

Here is version 1.7.55 (oops not 1.8), give it a try Dibya and thanks

I will try . I am not in my home in town where i have games . Now i am back in village at least for week.

Okay thanks

I add smaller version with less optimization. Just in case..

I made progress with direct2d, wine implementation need freetype (and optionally fontconfig), gdi32 also need to be extended. I can build them and able to load direct2d sample from Windows SDK, but it's not functional yet, because of the gdi32 issue.

In xompie-0.1a.exe, advapixp.dll has an export forward to advapi32.dll ordinal 1000 that does not exist in XP (sp3).

install.bat and xpatcher.bat are not legal batch files, they are CMD files and should be renamed. I rewrote the Xompie-0.0.1a xpatcher.bat as a valid batch file that does not require installation first, and it worked in 98se. I'll post it once I update it for Xompie-0.1a for those who wish to try Xompie without installing it first.

You do rock, jumper, you sure do!

Thanks a lot jumper, I intend to make that ordinal a forwarder, but messed up it as import.

Here I fix it in version 0.2a

BTW is there a limit for attachment? last time  I saw was .5mb now only .15mb

Introducing XomPie Tools:
these are supplement to the core patcher (pehdr-lite and gsar), as you know there are disadvantages by patching the apps:
1. apps that check its checksum (not PE checksum) will not works (this is a deal breaker)
2. packed exe don't get patched
3. patched signed file will have invalid signature
4. ...

in https://github.com/tumagonx/xompie/ I have add several opensource tools that might help:

1. osslsigncode.exe: this the opensource equivalent of MS signtool, it can sign files, create digital signature (self-sign) or unsign executables and msi. If you need to unsign a file, you need to do it BEFORE xpatcher otherwise DS offset might become invalid then.
2. rcedit.exe: this maybe the only opensource commandline manifest embedder that I know. Apps in later windows might appeared with proper UI but in XP it may need xptheme manifest (for ex. MS Visual TrueType). You can apply manifest using this tool
3. upx.exe if your apps packed you need to unpack first BEFORE apply xpatcher. I guess you already familiar with this. Unfortunately there are tons of packer out there...
4. veredit.exe (actually also named rcedit.exe). You can change PE file version, desc (and those stuff) from commandline with this. Maybe not that useful...

Just for information, patches for wine 1.8.1-1.8.4 that missing in https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-patched/ are available/maintained per linux distro for ex. by gentoo here: http://gentoo.osuosl.org/distfiles/ look for wine-staging-1.8.x.tar.gz (note you still need to download vanilla wine-1.8.x tarball)

I will use wine 1.8.5 for d3d and d2d once I get them built (and confirmed by dibya if it works)

If you need to implement DC creation function in wined3d for Windows XP you can create a user-memory ddraw surface (i.e., set DDSD_LPSURFACE) on the memory and call GetDC() on that. The functionality does exist on older Windows function in the form of GdiEntry7(). That approach implies introducing a dependency on ddraw into wined3d. This is not easy to do but easier than to revert CreateDIBSection as was before.

In my build I just unimplement D3DKMT* dependencies that causes DC creation to malfunction. But for D3D10 and 11 apps we don't need it in most cases.

Hi again, I just looking at MS Detours (though I won't be able to use it due to license issue) and its alternatives:
https://github.com/nektra/Deviare-InProc
https://easyhook.github.io/

Any gurus here have experience with them in regard creating physically patchless compatibility (umm.. via a MITM loader?), and keep the system intact (no system-wide impact).

EDIT: just feeling not giving up the patchless possibility
although I could also see risk of counter mechanism like anti-hook check, etc.
