First, here's a video showing what starting the game looks like in window mode using dxwrapper v1.4.7900.25 (correct behavior):
FL_dxwrapper_old.mp4
A black screen briefly appears after which the game's splash screen is displayed. When the main menu appears, you can see that my in-game cursor is somewhere in the center which is where I positioned my mouse.
Now this video shows the same startup process but with dxwrapper v1.6.8300.25 (latest release):
FL_dxwrapper_new.mp4
This time, before the black screen shows up, a blank window with different dimensions briefly appears. Secondly, in the main menu my in-game cursor is initially positioned in the top-left corner.
I consider the blank window and the cursor being positioned differently to be unexpected side effects. In the dxwrapper.ini file, I only had D3d8to9 enabled. Also, I did not use dxwrapper's window mode but the window mode provided by the game (-w commandline argument). Here's the log file: dxwrapper-freelancer.log.
If it is not clear which change(s) may have caused these issues to occur, I could try to bisect it to a specific commit when I have time.
