How can I run this in Wine

Post by klumppy »

I am trying to run Soul of the Ultimate Nation on a macbook pro and im not sure how to get it to work. Can anyone help me out? Here are links to the websites. You have to install the reactor for the game and the reactor itself. I was able to install the reactor, but I wasn't able to sign in. Anyone have any hints?

sun.ijji.com (this is the site for the game)

www.ijji.com (those are the people who made the game)

You're going to need to give more info than that. What version of Wine
are you running? What version of Mac OS X?

What exactly does Wine tell you when you try to sign in? Run this game
from Terminal.app and use file redirection to capture Wine's log to a file:

wine <executable-name> 2>log.txt

then post the contents of 'log.txt' to a site like Pastebin or some such.

im using snow leopard on a macbook pro and I can't run the game because I am getting a problem with the reactor. I can get the reactor installed and get it opened, but when I open it I have to sign in to be able to play the game and when I put in my username and password, I click sign in and nothing happens. It just sits on the same screen.

OK... what does Wine say when you try to sign in to Reactor? Run Reactor
from Terminal.app and capture Wine's log to a file (like above), then
try to sign in. Post the log to Pastebin or some such.

By the way, you still didn't say what version of Wine you were running.

I am using this version of wine. It's called winebottler but im assuming it's the same thing.

http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/

I got it moved to the applications folder and I started running the exe for the reactor and the reactor starts up fine but when I try and sign in, nothing happens, it just stays on the same screen and doesen't go anywhere.

Unfortunately, we can't help you right now, for two reasons: 1) It
doesn't have the latest version of Wine (1.1.44 vs 1.2-RC6) and 2) it's
a 3rd-party app, so we can't support it even if it included Wine
1.2-RC6. Come back after trying ijji Reactor with Wine 1.2-RC6, and then
we can help you.

Yeah, that's not helpful. That's why I want you to run it from
Terminal.app. It's in /Applications/Utilities. A nifty shortcut is to
press Cmd-Shift-U from the Finder to go straight to that folder. If you
need more information, you can always read Wine's FAQ
(http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ ). There's also an entire section dedicated
to running Wine on Mac OS X (http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX ), though
some of it is outdated. And if you need help getting used to the command
line, then remember, Google is your friend.

So i'm trying to play the same game / get Reactor to work.

Just as a note i'm pretty much brand new to the whole linux and wine scene. (I get confused really easily, unfortunately)

I basically downloaded SUN and Reactor and when I run Reactor a white window of it shows up.
