Elder Scrolls Online: Certificate Authentication Failed

[rathlord]

Heya guys,

Just got access to the ESO beta and I'm trying to get it launching under Wine. Having some trouble, though; it seems to be a duplicate/similar problem to this one: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34388

If I test run it with the +cryptasn debug parameter I can find 10 lines where tags don't match expected values. You can search the log file with "match" to find those 10 lines. There appears to be a way to make the program bypass checking these values (as per the Star Citizen post) but no one in that bug report *actually* says how you go about doing that.

Any help would be much appreciated. Here's a link to my log file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/lyuzse0z6r8cx ... unWine.log

Thanks guys.

You could just wait until they have the Mac version available... would be better than using Wine. They are already making it, and say testing for the Mac version will be 'soon'

I'm aware, but you of all people know how us Wine people are XD

Hey rathlord,
you can get past the error by applying the patch mentioned here: http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34388

Anyway, the game does not launch. As soon as i hit the "Play" Button a crash reporter process gets launched.

I am out of options, if anyone knows how to get the game running, please let me know.

*edit: Here is the console log: http://paste.kde.org/pd79188ed

After much searching and playing around with settings I was able to get it working, which I posted on another site. Thought I would share here as well.

I got ESO to work with Kali (Debian-based) using PlayOnLinux, wine version 1.7.11. With the help of a friend I was able to get past the certificate error.
I had him describe what he did here: http://blog.internetz.me/2014/02/13/eso ... t-problem/

I also added in msxml and core fonts. I used the DirectX installer from the ESO installer.

I posted a message that said it has to be reviewed by mods before it'll be posted.

I just realized that this is the Mac section, not linux, so apologies if it doesn't apply.
