v0.2.0
======
* Wrapped more vulkan function, dxvk 2.0 now works
* Added support for overriden malloc/free functions
* Refactor Dynarec memory management, reducing memory footprint (from 20% to 40% of Dynarec size)
* Improved elf loader
* Improved dlsym handling with RTLD_NEXT
* Added BOX64_DYNAREC_SAFEFLAGS to allow finetuning Dynarec generated code handling of flags accross function calls and returns.
* Added BOX64_BASH to setup x86_64 bash binary, so shell script can be run in x86_64 world
* Added BOX64_ROLLING_LOG to have details log only on crash
* Work on alignment for some of pthread structures
* More wrapped libraries in the gtk family
* Some fixes on the Dynarec x87 code (fixing a bunch of games like ut2004 or Piczle Puzzle)
* Improved TLS Size handling (Unity3D games now works)
* More PageSize Compile options
* Improved `execv` family of function to have better box64 integration
* Added support for wrapped libfuse so AppImage works
* Adjusted the binfmt integration so AppImage are automaticaly picked
* Improved FAudio, SDL2, GL (and more) wrapping
* More wrapped libs, like libEGL.so, to helps emulated Qt4/5 libs to load
* Improved Signal Handling and memory protection traking
* Some signature fixes to some wrapped functions (in libc)
* Added more syscalls
* Added a lot of new opcodes to the ARM64 Dynarec
=> Lot's of new games stat working, to name a few: Surviving Mars, Piczle Cross Adventure (using Proton experimental), UT2004, Obduction, Machinarium, Silicon Zero, Hacknet, Absolute Drift, Art of Rally, Dota2
=> Some apps also runs now, like TeamSpeak 3 Client and Server or Discord
=> The bash integration is usefull for device with no binfmt integration or for script that check the machine it's running on
v0.1.8
======
* Added an option to get generated -NAN on SSE2 operation

Notes about Unity game emulation
----
Running Unity games is a hit or miss for now. Unity uses Mono (which uses signals that are not always emulated in a 100% accurate way).
You should also note that some Unity3D games require OpenGL 3+ which can be tricky to provide on ARM SBC (single-board computers).
So, not all Unity games work and can require a high OpenGL profile, but many actualy work now.
Running Unity games should just works, but you should also note that many Unity3D games require OpenGL 3+ which can be tricky to provide on ARM SBC (single-board computers). Also many newer Unity3D (like KSP) games use the BC7 compressed textures, wich is not supported on many ARM integrated GPU.
Hint: on Pi4, use `MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=3.2` and with Panfrost use `PAN_MESA_DEBUG=gl3` to use higher profile if the game starts then quits before showing anything.

Notes about GTK programs
----
GTK libraries are now wrapped on box64, bu only gtk2, not gtk3 (contrary to box86).

Notes about Wine
----
Wine64 is supported on box64. Proton should also work. Be aware that 64-bit Wine also includes 32-bit components, to be able to run 32-bit Windows programs. The 32-bit apps will need box86 and will not run without it. On a system where both box64 and box86 are present and working, a wine 64-bit setup can run both 32-bit and 64-bit Windows programs (just use `wine` and `wine64` respectively)

Note that the new 32bits PE in 64bits process that the Wine time in currently implementing in Wine 7.+ is not yet supported. I tested Wine 7.5 64bits and it worked, but more recent version will probably just not work yet.

Notes about Vulkan
----
Box64 wraps Vulkan libraries, but note that it as only been tested with a RX550 card, some extensions may be missing depending on your graphics card.
