D7VK is a fork of the DXVK project that is an important part of Valve’s Steam Play (Proton) for Direct3D 8 \/ 9 \/ 10 \/ 11 support atop Vulkan. With D7VK the original goal was a Direct3D 7 implementation on Vulkan. D7VK 1.1 brought experimental Direct3D 6 support and now with today’s release of D7VK 1.3 is support for Direct3D 5.<\/p>\n

For those wanting to enjoy classic Windows games on Linux, D7VK 1.3 is out today for providing Direct3D 5 \/ 6 \/ 7 APIs implemented atop the modern Vulkan API. The Direct3D 5 support in D7VK is working out well for games like Carmageddon II: Carpocalypse Now, Tomb Raider II, Mortal Kombat 4, NICE 2, Nightmare Creatures, Deathtrap Dungeon, Lands of Lore III, and others.
