awesome!
can you give us a bit more details?
what did you settle on?
where did you get your files from?
what is your gpu?

just for the next person so they have some direction
Yeah, good idea. I downloaded the WineD3D files from https://fdossena.com/?p=wined3d/index.frag or just google "WineD3D".

Unzip the package and view the readme. It gives instructions for how to use the files for different directX versions. It is working well for me with the DirectX 8 files. All you have to do is copy the files the readme specifies into your EQ directory. From there, just launch the game as normal. Notably, this did not solve the problem when I tried to combine wineq2 with wineD3D, so it maybe be an either/or situation.

Here is the video mode settings from my ini.

I have a Nvidia GTX 1660 Ti, running driver version 456.71. I always run in windowed mode and never use alt+enter to go to fullscreen. Hope this helps someone in the future.
