ok uhm, not sure if we should include fortnite on the list, cause fortnite will never run, the whole game uses private servers so...

it is doable, custom servers for fortnite have been a thing for years

The entire game checks multiple online servers before it even gets to the main menu, its not doable and I have zero doubt that we'd never be able to get that work without patching the entire application.

well, if that's actually a thing then could work yes, but i don't think right now we're not gonna add support for them, if anyone wanna make a fork and try they are welcome. also iirc Unreal games uses d3d12 that it's not a thing in WinDurango for now

you'd obviously need to patch the application itself to redirect servers, but as long as networking can be done (i.e. http requests), it is doable, obviously it isnt a priority rn, but once d3d12 games are running, it should be doable

specifically in fortnite, you can disable the xbox specific stuff in regards to login, as it is been done on ps4 and on actual xbox

Even then, I don't understand why you would want to play the Xbox version through WinDurango anyways, but to each their own I guess.

theres builds of the game that are only on xbox

for example, 1.0.347.2997 is a build thats not found anywhere else except for ps4 and shadps4 isnt as advanced enough to have it running so this will be the first time that build "runs on pc" and its already dumped so editing it and preserving it would be easy

of course whenever windurango gets d3d12 support, obviously not a priority though
