   Apparently, windows have not yet figured out how to do locales properly, so only way to run something in cp1251 without setting it globally or risking crashes from hooks installed by locale emulator/ntlea is to get wsl and install wine there. At least I can connect to pulseaudio on a host machine windows vm is running on from wsl directly.

     @iamtakingiteasy Why bother with WSL then? Just run it on host system or a Linux VM. But yeah, dealing with codepages is a pain, you either set global override to Shift-JIS for erotic games and then deal with broken quests, or put it back to Windows-1251 and break erotic games instead.

     @iamtakingiteasy You only do a single GPU passthrough? Sounds like a pain indeed.

     @mint Switching GPU passthrough between VMs is not too convenient, same with VM and a host. Otherwise I would be just running wine on host.

     @iamtakingiteasy How's 3D acceleration in WSL? Never had a reason to touch it, so don't know what kind of hacks they implemented for it.

     @mint Yes, host is headless virtually all the time and just runs VMs one of which is using GPU.

     @mint Haven't really tried it. glxgears start, but do not spin, let alone print fps.

     @iamtakingiteasy Probably llvmpipe. Either way, the opposite is more interesting, we have virgl and venus, but both are still only for Linux guests.

     @mint @iamtakingiteasy there's sr-iov which is provided by intel since tiger lake, both on laptops and desktops and i think also their dedicated gpus. They plan on upstreaming the driver this 2023, and on i saw people on the bug tracker for it already running windows 10 vms with the igpu working properly

     @MischievousTomato @iamtakingiteasy They had GVT-g for a while, but either way having a driver-agnostic solution would be much better.

     @mint @iamtakingiteasy sr-iov is a tech that when implemented just works, it's standard i think? AMD and Nvidia only put that in enterprise products though.
