What works
Audio: Sort of; some audio clips work (horses) some do not play (dialogue)
Video: Sort of; but very low frame rate. 1-5 fps at most, even on low settings without AA. Unplayable
Full screen and windowed resolutions work. Tested at 2560x1080 and 1920x1080
What does not
General playability. With such low frame rates and audio issues, the game cannot be played. The opening cut scene does not allow users to create a character.
Workarounds
in winecfg:
override for xaudio2_7 was used. Set to builtin (wine)
What was not tested
Any gameplay, as the opening cart ride takes forever at 3 fps. And the cut scene of unloading the cart does not play. Everyone sits in Helgen enjoying the beautiful scenery while gagged.
