WineD3D is the component of Wine that implements a replacement for Microsoft Direct3D. WineD3D works as a wrapper for Direct3D calls, and relies on OpenGL for the actual rendering job.

Although primarily designed for use in Wine, WineD3D can also be used on native Windows. This has a number of advantages over using Microsoft Direct3D:

• You're free to use it for any purpose, study what it does, modify it to suit your needs, or share it with your friends.
• It can implement versions of Direct3D for Windows versions that Microsoft doesn't want to support (e.g. D3D10 on XP/2000/9x).
• Since it relies on OpenGL, it can provide Direct3D without need for specific D3D drivers (notably, on VMs like VirtualBox or QEMU).

This site provides pre-packaged builds of WineD3D.
