Issues with Wine and Star Wars Galaxies

drpain · Post by **drpain** » Wed Mar 25, 2009 12:10 pm

Having some issues getting Galaxies to launch, I can get other programs within Wine to launch like tvants and other basic programs. I'm using Wine 1.1.7 on Mac OSX 10.5.6 with X11 updated to 2.3.3 and Darwine 1.1.9.

When I got to launch Galaxies all I get is a terminal page full of errors. I notice Wine is deferring a lot dlls and I don't know if this is the cause of it or not. It also is having some issues with OpenGL launching as well I think.

Code: Select all

err:wgl:has_opengl  glx_version is 1.2 and GLX_SGIX_fbconfig extension is unsupported. Expect problems.

I'm not trying to totally play the game on this laptop because it only has a Intel GMA950 but I would like to at least login and check my trader and craft. I tried updating DirectX as well but that failed to initialize. Any ideas or suggestions?

How are you using wine 1.1.7 AND Darwine 1.1.9?

Something looks fishy...a couple of those should NEVER be deferred.
And your video drivers are borked, so it follows your game won't work.

I got my darwine install from this dude's website which I picked up on insanely mac

http://www.kronenberg.org/darwine/

Don't know if that says anything or not. I guess I'll try to track some GMA950 drivers down someplace to see if those work.

Thanks for the reply

EDIT: forgot a 1 in 1.1.17 so it shouldn't be 1.1.7 my bad

Darwine is probably based on an old version of Wine, and likely not compiled with OpenGL support either; it probably won't work. You might have better luck with compiling your own Wine from source or using either the "wine-devel" or "wine-crossover-games" packages from MacPorts.

Please note that latest Xquartz 2.3.3 packages are still in the "release candidate" stages, and not currently the stable version. OpenGL in older versions doesn't work with Wine, however, so it's something of a catch-22 - you have to use the beta version to get Wine OpenGL/DirectX to work. I've had more luck with running Windows apps, particularly games, with self-compiled, newer versions of Wine. Enabling the "virtual desktop" functionality of Wine is almost a requirement as well, as Xquartz is lacking RandR, causing fullscreen apps to have issues.

Without a lot of work, you're might be out of luck for the time being. I can attest that this is being actively addressed in Xquartz however, so hopefully something stable and working will be available sooner than later.

I did do the initial Wine install using MacPorts and Xcode which installed Wine 1.0.1 and then I downloaded 1.1.17 and did the update. I looked at Cross Over for Mac and is this just a whole package deal or does it work with Wine that I already have installed? Is it also a one time buy or do I have to continue to pay money to use it?

I'm not to advance on compiling things on my own so if someone could give some simple pointers that would help me greatly.

EDIT: I downloaded the trial version for crossover will give that ago when I get the chance to see if it works. So far I installed it but it refuses to see my pre-existing .wine folder which I did make it un-hidden. If all else fails guess I'll just do a reinstall and start from scratch.

Thanks for the responses guys!

What did you update? Did you install Wine 1.0.1 via MacPorts and 1.1.17 via a source build? I'm afraid I don't follow.

Re: CodeWeavers CrossOver Games Mac, you can buy it for a one-time fee, and get support for a year. No forced upgrades. Money spent on CrossOver goes directly to Wine developers, and I'm a happy purchaser of the product. If it works for you, it's money well spent, and nobody will try to dissuade you from supporting CodeWeavers. I also like using the open source Wine releases though.

Also forgot to mention that you're not going to find any Intel GMA drivers for your Mac. The Xquartz server is basically a modified Xorg server that runs as a native application on Mac OS X. With recent versions of Xquartz, the X bits of OpenGL/GLX rely on the system OpenGL frameworks. No driver updates are available, nor would they help.

You're probably not going to get much help with the MacPorts packages... You can run "port list wine\*" to see the available packages, though. The standard "wine" MacPort is the stable version 1.0.1, which is very old. The "wine-devel" package is the current version, 1.1.17. So remove "wine" and install "wine-devel" to test. Don't bother with Darwine, it won't work with OpenGL/DirectX. There may be some custom, up-to-date versions of Darwine with OpenGL support, but I've no idea where to find one.

One of the Xquartz developers also recently added a custom build from the CodeWeavers Games sources. It's called "wine-crossover-games" No experience with this via MacPorts, but I've built the CrossOver Games Wine from source and have had good luck with it. It's a bit a bear to get going perfectly from source on a Mac, though.

There's not much more I can help you with on MacPorts, since I don't use it for my Wine installs. The Xquartz folks have been good about getting their Xorg changes into MacPorts as well. The MacPorts documentation is pretty good if you want to stick with that, and these may be applicable if you want to build from source:

http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX/Building

Most of the standard "install from source" instructions are applicable on Linux, FreeBSD, Mac OS X, etc. as well:

http://ftp.winehq.org/pub/wine/docs/en/ ... INE-SOURCE

If you're so inclined, you can also look at the MacPorts port file for Wine. It will be in a location like /opt/local/var/sources/rsync.macports.org/release/ports/x11/wine-devel/Portfile.

EDIT: Just saw your edit as well. CrossOver Games will use a "bottle" that will be put into a location in your home directory:

Code: Select all

~/Library/Application\ Support/CrossOver\ Games/Bottles/

Blow away your .wine and restart from install into a CrossOver bottle. It's a pain, but you'll be happier you did it in the long run.

Well I reinstalled Galaxies with CrossOver and it is actually launching and letting me login. So it looks like CrossOver might be the way to go. I didn't think it would be this hard for Mac when it on my Ubuntu box things seem to work a lot easier and Wine works a lot better.

Thanks for the help and recommendation of CrossOver
