I haven't been able to get it working in high sierra. has there been some kind of update?

Okay so clearly it's been a few years, but my wineskin is stuck on "Wineskin is currently busy, please wait..." Any ideas on how to fix that?

Anyone ever figure out the mouselook excitement? I noticed a lot of people saying it stops at 180 degrees or something when they turn. I don't think it's that exactly. I tried playing on a MBPR with 4 screens connected. I have the eq window in the second to left screen and I've noticed if I look right I can spin further than if I look left. It basically seems like mouselook works to the point where the cursor would normally hit the bounds of your displays. I have tried the option to use XQuartz instead of X11 but it doesn't seem to make any difference.

The wineskin Install provided earlier works fine except I get the following game freeze and subsequant crashes:

Character creation on an Iksar Male
Upon reaching the second floor of Erudin Palace
Inside Blackburrow

That's it so far I haven't had other crashes but then again there are millions other locations I haven't visited since the install.

Hello Everyone! Just found out about Project1999 and it looks amazing. I'm a former Al'Kabor player.

Installing and setting up everything on High Sierra looks a little daunting.

I currently have:

Newest version of Wineskin Winery
P99Files45
EQTitanium .iso files
Project 1999.zip

Now which guide do I follow to set everything up?

There is this video from 2013

And this recent video about running it on High Sierra
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RDjWNWM3Y7w


Should I follow the instructions in the first video, then follow the second video? I'm an idiot with computers and want to make this as easy as possible.

I got it working. Ignore last post.

So, in order to use Vile's download, do we still need to first download the Project 1999 Wine Wrapper, extract to the Applications directory, and then use that to run Vile's files? and this would then be ready to play without applying the P99 required game file changes or deleting the .eqg files? I've not installed P99 before and am putting it on High Sierra.

I am using a new MBPR and am trying to install EQ and I am following the op guide and not having luck. If their an updated guide to doing this? Thanks again and sorry if this has been addressed elsewhere
