Wine wow64

I'm on arch right now, did my monthlyish update today and found arch forced wow64 in wine last month.  This makes every 32 bit wine application utterly unusable, even VNs have such poor performance they're unplayable.  Did artix follow this change, or is regular 32 + 64 wine still available outside of aur?  I was thinking of switching to artix for a while now, if wine still works here it's a no brainer.

I tried wine-wow64 a few months ago and with dxvk-mingw-git and vkd3d-proton-mingw-git from chaotic-aur 32-bit 3D is much better:

Artix, right now, is following upstream. I'm having no problems with the WoW64 build, have you tried regenerating the prefixes?

I'll check it out, thanks.  Though I'm a bit skeptical.

Turns out I jumped the gun blaming wow-64.  After some testing it seems to be an unrelated performance regression.  I tried testing with clean prefixes, made no difference.  Wine32 off aur had the same problem, reverting to my previous wine 10.8 did not.
