New to Wine on a Mac, Please Help

MacUser1985 · Post by **MacUser1985** » Wed Apr 29, 2009 3:20 pm

Hello all, I recently installed Wine as per the instructions here:
http://davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/

Everything went fine until it was time to run the program(s).
I am trying to run a map editor for an open source 1998 vintage 3dRTS strategy game. The game was been ported to Macs after the source code release, but not the map editor.

I downloaded 2 versions of this map editor, a 16 bit version, and a 32 bit version.

16 bit version:

XXX-XXXs-computer-4:Warzone2100 XXXXXXX$ ls

32 bit version

err:module:LdrInitializeThunk Main exe initialization for L"C:\\BWEditor\\editworld32.exe" failed, status c0000135

It looks like I am missing some .dll s on the 32 bit version... might this be related to a graphics driver?

Is there anyway I can change a setting and run the 16 bit version?

You need to add the VC++ runtimes for 2003/2005.

Please use the winetricks script add-on to add them

Since I am not at my Mac, please read the FAQ on how to use winetricks.

MacUser1985 --

Dave's instructions are daunting ...! Did that once; didn't work out too well for me.

Now I use Mike Kronenberg's builds:

http://www.kronenberg.org/darwine

Installation is accomplished via simple drag-and-drop.

The download includes a GUI front end to Winetricks.

He's also working on a version of WineHelper that won't open so many windows when you run an application through Wine. You can read about that one here:

http://mike.kronenberg.org

True, you won't be able to update Wine as you can with the Mac Ports method ... but he's usually pretty quick with the updates.

Can't help you much with the map editor problem, alas ... is there a link?

Good luck ... and hope this helps.

gdwarner - I tried to use the "TRiX" that came with Darwine to install the Runtime libraries and such, but anything I do results in

Apple Script Error
Terminal got an error: AppleEvent handler failed. (-10000)

As to using this Darwine build... do I still use Terminal, or will it be such that I just click on the .exe and Darwine Launches it?[/quote]

*edit*
Never mind, I think i got it working, I need to sort some things out though, I may ask more later

I have a work-in-progress article on using Wine on Macs, concentrating mostly on Mike Kronenberg's builds. You can read it here:

http://www.cheapandsleazy.net/darwine.html

The article is written for folks that aren't too computer-savvy (the base URL points to a support site for court reporting students), so don't be too offended at the simplistic, step-by-step instructions! :o)

Thanks, that was helpful, I especially liked this:
"sudo ln -s ~/.wine/drive_c/"Program Files" ~/Desktop"
I'd rather see the whole "C:\Drive" and tried "sudo ln -s ~/.wine/"drive_c" ~/Desktop"
It worked, very nice and convenient.

However, the 32 bit version of this world editor is giving me error messages about setting display depth to 32 bit, and it freezes/crashes when I attempt to load a map or start working on a new one....

How do I set the X11 window that is opened to 32 bit?

*edit* the 16 bit version works now, and I am able to do what I want, I am just curious how I would use the 32 bit version.

Interesting, but I'm not going to try placing the folder from Wine on my
Desktop.

Is the editor available on-line? I would like to install/test it to see
if the bug will go away with the next version of XQuartz.

Your display, if you are running a MacBookPro, should already be setup
to support 32 bit video depth. You did not state which Mac you are
running on.

Can you provide the following:

Open About this Mac from the Apple menu and tell us which version of
MacOSX you are using? The click on the More Info... button and then
click on the Graphics/Display item under Hardware and tell us which
video card you are using, the size and color depth of the display you
are using?

Thank you.

By the way, James ... the command doesn't place the folder for the C:/ drive on the desktop; it merely places an alias to the C:/ drive; otherwise, the drive and all it's contents will be invisible to the user.

I think its as simple as setting it to 32 bit mode... When it launches I get an error message that I need to set the display depth to 32 bit, and that it may crash.
As soon as I attempt to open any level/map file, it does crash

Is the editor available on-line? I would like to install/test it to see
if the bug will go away with the next version of XQuartz.

Note that if you attempt to use it- you may want to see this tutorial:
http://docs.wz2100.net/map%20tutorials/ ... index.html
Particularly when you first load it, it asks you to set some directories:
http://docs.wz2100.net/map%20tutorials/ ... torial.jpg

The game is open source now: http://wz2100.net/
For anyone interested - its a pretty cool project - soon to have a graphics update using higher poly models and high res textures... new terrain renderer (particularly what it does with water) - stuff way beyond me..

But this is really more about a learning experience for me.
