Default Wine and DirectX
Will wine emulate games that require DirectX?

Does it have the required dll's etc?

Or I will have to install directx on wine before?

I once installed Battlefield 2 using Wine. It took a lot of time and configurations, but I got it working, and it ran pretty nice too (some minor graphics-bugs) I didn't have to install DirectX at all. Wine seemed to emulate it, or it may have the required files as default.

Well, I think that even if a game will not work, you can always install DirectX on Wine, can't you?

WINE has the default dll's integrated into it, so it should be able to run Windows applications.
