Is there a 64 bit version of WINE available, and if so, where can I get it?

Or

http://www.slackware.com/~alien/slac...ne/pkg64/14.2/

(note the wine-1.9.15-x86_64-1alien.dep file, indicating any dependencies you might need to install)

if u need wine ... (whatever reason) BETTER STAY with winBUG$ !

That is really bad advice. Wine works great for many programs and then it prevents you from needing to reboot the computer or run a VM.

It's not clear if the OP actually wants the 64-bit wine, or just to run 32-bit wine on a 64-bit system. The latter will work with multilib, but the former is not available, at least on SBo. From the README:

Do you mean Wine that can run on a 64-bit Linux system and run 32-bit programs, or do you mean Wine that can run 64-bit Windows programs.

The first is easily available from the usual places.

The second isn't available as a SlackBuild or package, as far as I'm aware. You'll have to take care of that yourself.

Incorrect. The Wine package in my repository for Slackware64/multilib is capable of running both 64bit and 32bit Windows programs.

You're the laughing stock of this community - why don't you just stay silent until you have something constructive to tell.

May i add, it even supports native speed for directx 9 applications on Radeon HD an newer GPUs without any proprietary blobs.

Mr. Eric, thanks a lot for the latest (d3dx9) patch

Yes, plus my wine package was patched with the "staging" patch set, so that you can use it with pipelight to run 32bit as well as 64bit browser plugins for Windows in your Slackware Firefox browser.

Alien Bob's 32 bit wine package will not run (some?) 64 bit windows programs. I was using it with great success with many Steam games, however No Man's Sky refused to run with it. With Alien Bob's 64 bit wine package, No Man's Sky runs better than it did in my Windows 7 dual boot.

No,
wine for 32 bit system (i486) and wine built with only 32bit support (compat32-x64) will and is supposed to only run 32 bit windows executables

On the other hand, wine-1.9.15 form AlienBOB's 64 bit repository will do more than usual wine (eg. from Sourceforge) do.
1. it is -staging wine, so many patches lacking "normal wine" are included that help run a myriad of *.exe files more.
2. It is D3DX9 patched, which means it has a special ability to tel Mesa's GL "native language" when talking direct-X 9, so many games lacking "wine support" not only run, but run with FPS above native records.

So, Alien's wine is wine on steroids (so no Olympic games for wine tho )

You say steroids?

After upgraded to 14.2 I must install from Sourceforge because Alien's wine slows down FPS and have higher CPU usage in my old Heroes V.
CAn't play on my Intel HD.
Wine from sourceforge is OK.
