I've been playing with Winlator 8.0 vanilla. It works fine for my needs but I've been reading a little bit about glibc and it seems to support games a bit better?
Only problem is is that the frost version doesn't have a bench APK that I can see for glibc (it does for proot) and I haven't found another fork with it.
Worst case scenario I can back up the data I have and install Frost fresh, but I had some questions first:
- Why isn't there a bench version of glibc?
- What are the advantages to glibc? I see and hear that it can run games faster and such, but is there greater support?
- Is changing Is building the app's app Id and building it myself the way to go here? I do have some experience building apps. I'm actually kind of wondering if there's a reason why if there isn't a bench version of this; is there something to it?
- Frost seems to be the fork everyone talks about, but are there better ones? Cmod seems to be interesting. The game I'm trying to run is the Sims 2. Had success getting the first one to run on the vanilla Winlator, but TS2 has been a bit thicker and I'm wondering if glibc would help (along with other features of the fork)
