Hello, I am very new to using wine, so I really don't know a thing about the world of wine, except for that it's currently giving me much headache. Anyway, the question I really want to ask here, is about what's the best Wineskin engine for one to use when installing Internet Explorer 7. As ignorant as I am, I only know to the extent that the newer versions do not work so well on the

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. Example: [img]http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/37/2012030300001t.jpg/[/img] I've tried installing the dll files for directx

Hi all, So Final Fantasy XIV (online MMO) runs perfect (Gold) with most people to this point. Although I would want to contribute by debugging it even further than the current phase. First step I wanted to undertake is to see if there are known fixes for the Debug run (Wineskin) before a player enters the game (login screen). I get the following LastWineRun.log back after normally quiting after

Hi there. I'm using OSX and the latest version of wineskin to run Company of Heroes Gold version, downloaded from Steam. It appears that there is no way to alter key-binds, and you have to use the 'pause/break' button to utilize the in-game tactical pause (stops all action and allows you to issue orders). My mac keyboard doesn't have this button, so I tried using a new logitech

I'm new to all of this, never played a windows game on mac before, but I thought I might get some help here. Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong thread or anything like this. I copied fallout new vegas from a friend who I'm pretty sure downloaded it illegaly. Don't know if this is relevant, just want to be sure. First of all it won't start - I have the same problem as the

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,

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

Hello all :D I've managed to get Wineskin Windery all set up, and I've added the engine, then created a new wrapper, and installed the game from an .exe file but after playing it for abit I went to start it up again by double clicking on the wrapper i created for it and wineskin pops up with the options to 'Install windows software' 'Set screen options' and

Hi, I would be never asked, but have an issue with that game, like in subject I have Snow Leopard 10.6.4 on MacBook pro Core2duo and also have WineSkin on 1.2 engine and when I try to run game the window pop up are with that message: Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library Program:C:\Program Files\Black Mirror 2\BlackMirror2.exe File: w:\blackmirror2\sourcecode\win32dx9\DynamicBuffer.h Line:248

Hello, I'm running Fallout New Vegas in Wine with (a lot of) help from Playonlinux. I have to say it is running very well and I'm have very few critical failures like I was having with the game in Windoze; many quirks, but few critical failures. Which is awesome. I'm wondering though, if anyone else who's got FONV working has found a way to initiate anti-aliasing in the game. For

Hey guys. Several months ago I made a youtube video helping people run San Andreas on their mac by building their own wineskin wrapper for it. The response is about 50/50, some have no problems at all, others have basically the same 3 problems. I personally can't figure out these most common problems so I'm hoping you guys will be able to assist me. 1. "I can't control the

I have installed Fallout New Vegas under Ubuntu 10.10 and every thing went well but, when I start the game, I dont have any sound in-game, maybe it is only dialog but I cant say... I get sound up until I pick New game in the menu but, I have it also in the intro movie but, when I get to the point where Doc say "Good, you're Awake", Nada, no sound... What should I try ? Wine

Hi I'm having issues with this. When I run FalloutNVLauncher.exe it boots up and then it says it's going to detect my hardware settings to determine video settings and then it crashes saying FalloutNVLauncher.exe has encountered a serious problem and must close. How do I fix this?

I've got a copy of Bulletstorm and I've been trying to get it run properly but I've had several issues. Trying to use wineskin, I've made a wrapper with the 1.3 engine and it runs the game just fine. The problem is that when I get into the first person mode (so not on the interface/menu/whatever) that the mouse spasmodically spins around and erratically changes direction whenever I

I'm On Ubuntu 11.04 This is for fallout New vegas. I made a new prefix and installed steam, fallout new vegas, Fallout mod manager, and the New vegas script extender. I got everything working, however, when I try to use NVSE through FOMM, or through a regular launcher spits out the error: can not inject dll, but when I click on it directly it works as intended... Even bringing up steam and

I was wondering if Wine lost 10.5 compatibility, or if any of the few people out there with it have noticed a problem. Up through 1.3.25 it seems to compile and work fine. On 1.3.26 and 1.3.27 the compile will fail with errors about a bunch of symbols in msxml3.dll.so that are not found. Building 1.3.26 and 1.3.27 on 10.6 or 10.7 using a 10.5 SDK it will build fine and still work on 10.6 and

Xquartz problems is one reason in Wineskin Engines I have a custom built version of Xquartz... it doesn't use your systems installed X11 or Xquartz version... much like Crossover builds in their own X server as well. As to getting it to work in Wineskin... the NWN wrapper I made that is around comes with directions on how to get the game inside of it... then its just a mac app. Its not

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

ehh... I made a Wineskin wrapper for this long ago some people use... I haven't tried installing NWN in a while because I have it in installed format already, and it runs fine without any registry entires and doesn't technically need to be "installed." Several people told me their installers failed to when installing the game in the wrapper, but copying over from a Windows

Hi, I am new to all this wine stuff, and I am having some problems building wine following the official instructions (http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX/Building) I have the latest version of Xcode installed and have X11 sitting in my Utilities folder as well. I want to build wine from source without the use of MacPorts of Fink as I want to add the DIB Engine to my build. however I can neither
