Just a question. We see it supports X or Y new games, or improve Z or A games. But does those change are made specifically for those games, or do they improve the code in general and it affects older and ancients games ?

usually these fixes are made because of problems with certain games or software, but also improve the wines overall compatibility with the windows api
