Hi I'm having issues with this. When I run FalloutNVLauncher.exe it boots up and then it says it's going to detect my hardware settings to determine video settings and then it crashes saying FalloutNVLauncher.exe has encountered a serious problem and must close. How do I fix this?

other than following suggestions in the AppDB entry (http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.p ... &iId=21692) I don't really know.

Wineskin isn't really supported here, but if you run a Test Run, it should generate logs, which the Wine log is normal Wine terminal output, which would help know what was going on. If your using Wineskin 1.2... well I need to take that down really... Wineskin 2.0 beta is a lot better overall.

Use POM 2.4.1, it have NV installer in the "testing" section, reported working by OSX users.

this line leads me to think you may need to install a native msvcr90 possibly.

wine: Call from 0x7b82b501 to unimplemented function msvcr90.dll.qsort_s, aborting

You can do that by using Winetricks in Wineskin to install vcrun2008

I know its possible to get to to work, because someone at portingteam.com has a working Wineskin wrapper available for this game... you could always try downloading that one since its set to go.

I'm new to all of this, never played a windows game on mac before, but I thought I might get some help here. Sorry if I'm posting in the wrong thread or anything like this.

I copied fallout new vegas from a friend who I'm pretty sure downloaded it illegaly. Don't know if this is relevant, just want to be sure. First of all it won't start - I have the same problem as the creator of this thread. And since I'm so new at this your replies don't make any sense to me.

So I guess what I need is to told what to do step by step. I want fallout to work because I've heard great things about it, and I hope somebody doesn't mind going to the trouble of telling what needs to be done.

Thanks in advance!

It is VERY relevant. You could infect your system with a virus or other
malware. Never, ever use software of a dubious nature, even on your Mac.

First thing: Pay a visit to our Applications Database to see if the pro
will install and run under Wine (rating of other than Garbage) when run
on a Mac.
Second thing: If the program will run, go and purchase a LEGAL original
copy.
Third thing: Get Wine from MacPorts, Fink or if you are feeling
venturous, download the Source and look at the Dependencies page on the
Wine Wiki and then build and install it.
