HOW-TO: Play Project 1999 on a Mac

[Nads]

Having the same gui xml error as well. Can't seem to figure it out, even after a reinstall.

Any updates to this?

The updates work fine

The problem however .. as our friends in the Wincrap world do not know about the significance of Capitals in File-names.
When the directory name CAPS has changed you will have problems, (files will be lost /
deleted).

Solution = Do not copy on top of directory's. Copy the entire contents of each directory to the recipient directory. You will not have problems if you do that.

A further note::
As I do not have Wincrap and only use a MacinTrash.
I have 2 versions of the client.
The first version is the no gamma problem version, (you can make this full screen or windowed).
The 2nd version is the full everything version, (you can make this full screen or windowed).
If anybody wants a copy of one I can put the wrappers up to somebody's download site for the masses, (no game will be in the folder).

Hey all. I have been playing P99 for about 3 or 4 weeks now, without issue on my Mac. I was playing today and tabbing into other apps like Mail and Chrome during downtime. I tabbed into chrome and suddenly the p1999 wineskin app closed without any error message. I tried to relaunch and the icon just bounces once on my desktop.

I patched the latest version several days before without issue. I tried to go into the advanced options and test run, update the wineskin and also change the engine to a newer one. No success.

Any ideas? Icon is still just bouncing once on my dock and will not launch.

Having the same problem as Xenmir.

EQ crashed on logout, and I clicked re-open. Nothing happened, and now when I try to run the wineskin from the applications folder, nothing happens.

I'm guessing it's going to be a Wineskin rebuild. I hope I can just copy my eq folder out of this one and back into the new build. When I click to view logs on test run or last run, nothing comes up =(

Anyone know a better solution than rebuilding the wineskin?

Anyone figure out the mouse issue when rotating 360 degrees? It locks up about half way...

Use Quartz instead of x11 and it fixes the mouse-look issue.

Wineskin is not currently working with El Capitan.

I've been using Wineskin fine with Yosemite till latest patch. Now screen is just black, never get to login screen. Not sure what to do.
