Hmm okay, well there goes that idea. Ill still try on some older versions of the OS but might just be a wine issue.

Has anyone had any luck with virtual machines? I often work on my mac while I play and bootcamp would hinder that.

I've tried running EQ in Wine under Linux w/ Virtualbox, but it was unplayably slow on my machine (mid-2015 Macbook Pro). My research seemed to indicate that Windows wouldn't run it any faster, at least under Virtualbox, given poor support for GPU virtualization. You may have better results with a more expensive option like a VMWare product.

I re-installed game and did everything that this video instructs, except removing zone files that in the new update are said not to be needed to be removed and it did not work. It is definitely something particular to new update because the client would open before inserting P49 files. After that wineskin will not start everquest window - comes up in toolbar then goes away.

It works fine here with Wine for macOS, so it seems to be an issue with Wineskin

Just to confirm, you got Project 1999 working with the latest patch? (on a Mac)

To add, on the newest Mac OS? I'm pretty sure it's the new v49 "dsetup.dll" file. Wineskin will boot into the char screen when I use the v47 "DSETUP.dll" file but will say my spell files are outdated. When I use the v49 "dsetup.dll" Wineskin will not even open, it will try to open / hang / then close itself. The wineskin logs say "dsetup.dll" failed which in turns causing eqgame.exe to not launch.
