Still having the strange issue with billboard video playing in full screen when I jump into systems that have a billboard on gate, but its much more playable than using cider, and I appreciate that.

I logged in no less than 12 hours ago, WINE wrapper worked fine, but now the latest WINE version results in the client not starting at all. The launcher shows a stop symbol and the bar goes green as if the client is launching, but then it goes back to a state of no client running.

MacBook Pro 2012,
Directx 9
Using OS X 10.10.5
WINE latest
Launcher version 1021473 (according to About EVE Launcher)


Clients launch fine with cider.

If I switch back to WINE version 1.8.1-test, the same issue exists.

I also posted this in the update to the WINE wrapper thread.

I can send through the logs in an evemail in full.

CCP Snorlax, did you change something some in which the command key works again?

If you did. I love you even more.

Yes, I did, in the default Wine version.

Not sure if I did something wrong, but my launcher (v. 1021473) does not allow me to switch between wrappers.

EDIT: Never mind. I found it. lol

Configuring the EVE client to run under WINE worked without a hitch, but I'm unable to access the general settings menu (ESC) to reconfigure anything.

That and the ability to import existing settings.


I seemed to be having the same issue. Windows (including the Esc -> settings window) weren't properly stacking and windows disappeared upon trying to open/close things (i.e. they were there since I could see tooltips but the windows themselves were invisible).

This was only an issue when I was out in space, not in the character selection screen. My character normally was logged out in a POS and I found when I docked/undocked the in-space window issues were fixed (one time I had to dock/undock twice).

Please file a bug report in game right after this happens, I need to see logs. Even better if you have full logs from LogLite - attach to the bug report.

CCP Snorlax has stated he has made a fix for this that will take place in a patch soon after Easter. You can find his post on page 7

WINE had been working, but during one of the recent updates it quit. Clicking play now just turns the bar green for a while, then it goes back to blue. This is using the "latest" version option on two different MacPro systems I have, one with Nvidia GTX 680, and other with ATI Radeon 5870, both running El Capitan 10.11.4.

Hopefully the after-easter patch will help things.

Until then, I'm back to using Cider.

Also... Thanks so much CCP Snorlax for helping us Mac users !

Try switching the Wine version to 1.8.1-test instead of latest - let me know if that changes anything.

Earlier this week (Tuesday?) the Mac launcher just stopped working on my late-2009 iMac (OS 10.10.5, 2.66 GHz Intel Core i5, 12GB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 4850 512 MB). Even before then, every launch brought a renewed file download. Switching to 1.8.1-test got it working again and it seems to be quite stable now, and no longer downloads new files with each launch.

Changing to 1.8.1-test fixed it on both MacPro systems and the game ran fine.

CCP Snorlax,

Any idea on when the patch will be that fixes the resolution changes upon start up?

I am using Wine version, latest

I randomly get sessions where I have to use my control key instead of my command key as a modifier for things like select all, copy, paste, etc. Seems completely random and happens maybe 1 in 5 or 6 sessions? Submitted bug report.

Make sure you don't have the dev versions of Wine enabled.

The dev versions are built automatically from 3 different repos, only one of which has my changes. If you have the dev versions enabled, with Latest selected, you will be somewhat randomly jumping between the CCP fork of Wine (which has the keyboard mapping fixed) or the original Wine repo from either the development or the stable branch. The ability to select from these dev builds is primarily to enable us to test different versions.
