I haven't been able to get it to work on 10.9.5. I do currently have EVE installed via WineBottler, though. Would that cause a conflict?

It shouldn't. I'd be curious to see your launcher logs. Can you dig them up and put in a Dropbox (or Google Drive) and send me the link in EVE Mail?

Some tid bits.

Under Wine - screen resolution isn't very consistent.

My iMac and External monitor are both native 1920x1080. I play in window mode which means I run 1920 x 1030. Under the wine version. It seems that it starts up in like 1920 x 1038/1060 and like any other compensation of 1920x10**.


So its happening to you swell, well it's good to know I'm not the only one, I wonder if there is a fix, or way yo lock the resolution so it doesn't slightly change each time you launch the client.



Just realized you posted before me about the same issue.

I'm cheering for the Mac team at CCP to find a fix.

Also, any word on the Command key change?

Thank you CCPeople! BiaB plus WINE support makes playing on my late 2012 Mac Mini fantastically awesome.

For those of you that got it working, does the client change window size on each launch? (If you are running in windowed mode).

Mine keeps growing by a few pixels each time I load a client, just wondering if anyone else is having this issue, or if its some strange byproduct of having had playonmac installed, and running eve via wine with that before using CCP's new wine method.

Quote:
One thing I have noticed, I am playing in windowed mode, with a set resolution (1344x840), each time I reboot the client the resolution grows by a few pixels. For example if I set my windowed size to the above resolution, the next time i start that client it has moved up to 1352x855. And will continue to grow in small increments until I have to reset it manually to where I want it. I tested it with a custom resolution by resizing the window, and the same behaviour, it grows by a few pixels per restart.


Wine has always done that for me even before CCP introduced the Wine wrapper. I'm not sure why but it's kind of annoying as I keep comms on the side next to the client :P

Got a client booting now, but I can't change the resolution - there's only one option, and it spans across both my monitors, which is not at all what I want.

It's very unstable, and took about 10 attempts to boot after downloading the latest stuff.

Logging in and attempting to change graphics settings instantly crashes the client.

I decided to load Captain's Quarters while running Project Discovery, to which I am hopelessly addicted. Invariably, after perhaps ten to fifteen minutes of normal function, Project Discovery will become unable to load slides, and LogLite will fill up with over 300 messages per minute, all of them saying, "[f]ailed to set RenderTarget to slot 0." It is occasionally interspersed with the error, "[f]failed to get a valid ballpark in time after trying 30 times." (CQ has a ballpark?! Where?! Big smile) After a couple of minutes of this, the client becomes unresponsive, and I have to force quit to terminate it. Then, invariably, I get the message that "There was an error writing a file to disk."

I have worked around this by loading the hangar instead.

(Note: I do not have to be running Project Discovery to get the RenderTarget error. That is merely what I was doing when I noticed it.)

I'll see if we can reproduce this in the office. I've been in CQ without errors, but it may depend on settings and/or the OS X version and hardware used. I'd appreciate if you could file a bug report, give me your system details and attach a saved log from LogLite.

I cleared my log because it was pinwheeling. It had hundreds of thousands of lines! That will make it easier to isolate the problem and bug report it.

Look for one soon. I am on 10.11.3, the latest version of OS X.

Now that its working for me, Here are some issues Ive found.

Command Q does not quit the game. Instead, it tries to quit XQuartz. Control Q does nothing.

In the market interface, the price history plot has no scale values shown.

I'm using a MacBook Pro, with a trackpad. When I do a two finger scroll on my hangar window, the window jumps to the contents of the ship hangar, or the contents of a station container. To see this, put many items in your hangar, so a scroll is needed to navigate them all.

Is there an upper limit on the attachment size for a support ticket? I ask because when the bug I'm reporting logs more than 5 errors per second, and I play for 20 minutes to wait for a freeze, it becomes unwieldy. It is over 27MB in size.

I have narrowed it down to three issues, for which there will be two tickets filed as soon as I sort out the logs. I may simply start over tomorrow or the next day and not wait so long!):

1) CQ in windowed mode crashes either before it loads or as soon as I move the camera;

2) Project Discovery's slide display pane goes black as soon as I try to use command-shift-4 to take a screenshot of the slide;

2) CQ in full screen mode runs smoothly, but crashes as soon as I use command-shift-4 to take a partial screenshot,but at least I get the screen shot.

Wine treats the command key as the "alt" key. So normally hot keys don't work.

Just think and try to train yourself for now that EVE is Native Windows and only window hotkey work.

For uploading files to CCPs bug report - just compress the file first. Had to do that the other day.
If you don't know how to compress the file - right-click and compress.

Except control Q does nothing. There is no hot key, not even a windows native hot key, to quit the client.
Edit: I found I could change the shortcut for quit so control Q quits the current client without quitting Xquartz.

I switched to Wine to test it and didn't encounter any problems except that my settings weren't transferred over. I couldn't find any directions on how to transfer my settings so I switched back to Cider. Unfortunately, all of my old settings are now gone in Cider, too. Resetting window locations would be annoying, but I really, really don't want to have to rebuild all of my keybindings.

Any suggestions on how I can get my settings back?

Edited: Never mind, I figured it out.

I copied everything from (because the date/time stamps were from February):

~/Library/Application\ Support/EVE\ Online/p_drive/Local\ Settings/Application\ Data/CCP/EVE/c_program_files_ccp_eve_tranquility/settings

to:

~/Library/Application\ Support/EVE\ Online/p_drive/Local\ Settings/Application\ Data/CCP/EVE/c_tq_tranquility/settings_Default

NOT TO (the location that makes more sense):

The Wine version puts a folder in you documents folder (I think) but on like page two of this thread someone provides the location for your settings.

Has anyone had problems resizing the EVE window?

I know I reported issues with Wine and screen resolution.
I noticed i have the option when i mouse over the edge of EVE to resize it. I have not had any issues. Just wondering if anyone saw this? And if it has worked or not worked

Since switching to the wine wrapper I've noticed that sometimes when warping/jumping into a system, the video that is displayed on the billboards will play in full screen. I haven't been able to determine the trigger for this, but it seems to occur when commencing warp, or alt+clicking in space.
I have found no way to remove it without restarting the client.

See the following to get an idea of what I'm talking about,

And here is the screenshots of the billboards displaying the same images,

I'm playing on a 2012 macbook pro using the wine wrapper.

Seems someone else on page 4 is having this issue as well.

Hello,

While warping to a gate my entire screen is suddenly filled with some video news that cannot be closed.


Any advice on a workaround/fix would be greatly appreciated.
