Alexandre Julliard has just announced a few hours ago, October 11, that another development release of the powerful Wine software is now available for download and testing.

Wine 1.7.4 introduces a number of Winsock improvements, more preparation work for the Direct3D command stream, support for Cocoa-style full-screen mode in the Mac driver, as well as several bug fixes.

As usual, this development release of Wine adds better compatibility with several Windows games, including Neverwinter Nights 2, URU Complete Chronicles, Split Second, Arcanum, BabasChess, Minitroid, The Witcher, Guild Wars 2, Dungeons & Dragons Neverwinter Beta, and NCsoft's Aion (MMORPG). Download Wine 1.7.4 right now from Softpedia. Remember that this is a development release and it should NOT be installed on production machines. It is intended to be used for testing purposes only.
