These are more common in console ports. AVX instructions are x86 specific, and Rosetta doesn't translate them. Unless you can find a way to disable or bypass them (check online), then your game won't work.| -|I want to play a competitive multiplayer game, but it won't load.|Competitive multiplayer games, especially battle royales and other FPS games (like PUBG, Fortnite, Apex Legends, Valorant), often have some form of driver-level anti-cheat. These won't work under Wine.| -|My DirectX 9 game has graphical issues, or doesn't work at all.|DirectX 9 games are handled through Wine's own `wined3d`. Whisky focuses on modern titles using DX11 or 12, and you may run into issues with DX9 games. CrossOver is a better choice in this scenario, as it runs on Wine 8 instead of Wine 7, and has a more up-to-date version of `wined3d`. If you're not sure what Graphics API your game is using, you can check on the [PCGamingWiki](https://www.pcgamingwiki.com/wiki/Home).| -|My game crashes out of the box, or complains about missing dependencies.|Make sure to check Wine's [AppDB](https://appdb.winehq.org/) and [ProtonDB](https://www.protondb.com/), which can often provide information on the necessary workarounds or Winetricks you need to use to get your game running.
