Wine on the Mac?
Greetings, I have a windows program that i would like to run on the Mac. It is my understanding that i could install Wine on the Mac. And then my windows program will run from there. Is that how it goes? I am concerned about the complexity of installing wine on mac, and all the 'other stuff' it needs. How much 'other stuff' is there.? Thanks...vmars316

Is it possible to run explorer.exe under wine?
I'm intending to use wine on my Macbook Pro and am currently downloading the requisite materials, based on a tutorial on how to use wine for Mac. So I'm getting xcode and Macports package installer and from there I will install. Anyway, the tutorial also gives the basics of wine usage via terminal for executing windows files and while it's not particularly difficult it occurs to me

Mouse still not working properly on OS X with 1.4
This has been an ongoing issue with all of the 1.4 releases. In several games, notably Oblivion, Fallout 3, Fallout:NV, and Far Cry, the mouse will not function properly. On main menus, the mouse will be stuck in one quadrant of the screen, as if what the mouse thinks the screen boundaries are is not aligned with the actual boundaries. In game, the mouse swings wildly all over the screen,

Trying to load MIRC with Wine on a Mac
This is driving me crazy. I have wine downloaded on my MAC. It's in my application folder. I have MIRC downloaded and it's also in my Application folder. But, when I turn off MIRC, and turn it back on, the whole thing wants to reload. Very annoying since that means it's not saving settings. Any ideas?

Using Wintermute with Winebottler
Hi! I'm new here because i'm desperate. At first i'm not sure if it's the correct forum for that, because it's about Winebottler for OS X, and not just Wine. But i thought both belong together and so you could help. If i am wrong, just mention it. I'm working on a Mac (Lion) and running WME (Wintermute Engine Editor for Adventure game development) on Windows via BootCamp

Printing from Darwine (OS X)
I'm somewhat new to wine on my Mac so I read the wineHQ wiki (http://wiki.winehq.org/Printing) and searched the forums but didn't come up with anything which I saw was an answer. I am running 1 specific app through darwine on my mac and when I try to print it says there are no printers. I saw references to something called cups-pdf but that looks like it's just a virtual printer. I

X11 (Mac) graphics problem
Running OS X 10.6.3 on an Intel Mac (processors "2.33 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo", memory "3 GB 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM) and the newest version of Wine accessible through MacPorts. Hey. A little while ago, I was having trouble installing wine. I eventually managed to install with MacPorts. Everything was going fine until today, when the program I actually wanted to run (Dwarf Fortress 0.31.01)

Greater OS X integration
Okay, I'd like to start first by saying, awesome work on this project! It's been a few years since I last tracked the progress of WINE on OS X, and it's come on leaps and bounds as I can run most everything I've thrown at it so far, with only minor issues here and there, which is a damned sight better than VMWare Fusion or Parallels which have compatibility issues everywhere,

Mass Effect 2 help?
Long-time user of Wine for various applications, but for the first time I'm hitting a brick wall, so I registered here to get some help with my problem. Short and sweet, I managed to get a friend's copy of Mass Effect about a year ago, and very much enjoyed it when playing it in Wine. However something in the DRM or the way it was written must've been changed in the second, because I

Poor: Installing champions online (improved)
Hi, I cannot seem to be able to install champions online no matter what. I have tried installing it with wine bottler, wine skin, crossover, and crossover games, and every time the same thing happens: a window pops up saying program error, an error has occurred. This happens when the champions online starts installing. It is driving me insane. Please help me and tell me what I need to do.

Anyone out there running Dragon Age:Origins on SNOW LEOPARD?
Im currently working at it, and got as far as being able to resume a saved game, but only for a few seconds before it crashes. You can see my full progress in the AppDB. Since, despite many helpful posts, there doesn't seem to be anyone actually running it on SLeo over there, I was just wondering if ANYONE has been successful in that task, or if I'm the only lonely wanderer in the dark...

Stumped with winetricks and source code
I'm using Leopard and I'm new to wine, MacPorts, the use of the terminal, and coding in general. Because of this, some of the language in the FAQ seems foreign to me and hasn't been very helpful, or its geared toward Unix users and not Mac OS X users. ISSUE#1: I managed to install wine through MacPorts and use it to run a game. I've used Crossover to install and run the same game

Running Vampire the Masquerade - Bloodlines graphic bug
Hi all, I'm new to wine, and I've done a lot of reading and searching for a solution to my problem. But nothing seems to work. The game runs fine, only on startup the movies in front of the main menu don't work. And in game characters are teared up.

Playing Neverwinter Nights
I've installed Neverwinter Nights using a wrapper in Wineskin, but when given the option to select an EXE I don't know which to pick. I've systematically gone through all the different things I think are most likely, but nothing lets me run the game. With some .exe files, such as nwmain.exe (which i thought would be the one) the whole Wineskin program simply stops responding. I
