<h3>Maintainer Rating Definitions</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
The Application Database features a maintainer rating system that allows you to see
|
|
which applications work best in Wine. This rating system is designed to assist
|
|
users by giving a rating based on an ‘expert's’ experience.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
|
|
<li class="platinum">Platinum
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
An application can be rated as Platinum if it installs and runs flawlessly ‘out of the box’. No changes required in winecfg.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="gold">Gold
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Application works flawlessly with some DLL overrides, other settings or third party software.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="silver">Silver
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Application works excellently for ‘normal’ use; a game works fine in single-player but not
|
|
in multi-player, Windows Media Player works fine as a plug-in and stand-alone player, but cannot handle DRM etc.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
<li class="Bronze">Bronze
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Application works, but it has some issues, even for normal use; a game may not redraw properly or display fonts in wrong colours, be much slower than it should etc.
|
|
</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li class="Garbage">Garbage
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
An application gets this rating if it cannot be used for the purpose it was designed for.
|
|
There should be at least one bug report in Bugzilla if it gets this rating.
|
|
Application cannot be installed, does not start, or starts but has so many errors that it is nearly impossible to use it.
|
