At home for the holidays so I only have my Macbook Pro. I've tried both versions and can't get either to work. Getting the 3D objects error, tried all the fixes in the FAQ and scoured the last 25 or so pages to see what other people have tried, no luck.

Specs:

Processor: 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB
Software: OSX 10.8.5

Any advice?

Doublecheck that you are using port version 4.1.1b or 4.0.3 and set the game to fullscreen via editing the config file.


Tried both versions and edited the config file already.

borderless_windowed_fullscreen=true
fullscreen=true
resolution_height=800
resolution_width=1280

Does borderless windowed or resolution have anything to do with it? My MBP resolution is 1280x800 so I just set it to that.

Edit: other settings.

So thats my set up. What i'm trying to figure out is how to log in using my steam account so i can continue playing on my profile. (normally play on a pc but its out of commission right now) Is there a way to link to my steam profile using the unofficial client?

I am not sure, but the credentials you are using to log onto this forums should be same for the game. (If you have your account linked, then it should work)



Well when i first started the game i linked through steam and its wanting me to use an email. When i login using my steam email it says there is no existing account. When i log into the forums im directed to a steam page to login using my steam account. Kinda confused of what to do.


Well, there is a possibility but it is a ugly one, and may not work correctly.
there are two ways
1) install steam into wrapper via winetricks (recommended but not always works)
Right click wrapper>launch wineskin>advanced>tools>winetricks and install steam from the list, if successfull, change windows exe under configuration tab to steam.exe (use browse and find steam.exe inside the wrapper. Then just doubleclick the wrapper, log in to steam and install PoE via it. If installation is not successfull, you might try to hit update winetricks button in winetricks menu (but sometimes it hangs)
2) install steam directly
download WINDOWS steam installation file
Right click wrapper>launch wineskin>select install app> select downloaded steam instalation file
After installation do NOT select launch steam after setup, you will be prompted for new executable, chose steam.exe from list.
Then navigate to wineskin>advanced and add "--no-dwrite" (without quotes) to EXE flags under configuration tab.

Note: This was not tested :)
Note2: Yes, you might be able to play other windows steam games via this as well.

Hi,

Running the newest version - and during the "checking resources" phase - I get the error "Error Opening File: Art/Textures/Monsters/watermonster/temple_water_colour.dds" and I do not understand why.

Here are my system specs:
OSX 10.6.8
Memory: 4GB
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo 2.4 ghz
GPU: NVidia GeForce 320M 256MB

Stupid question: have you moved the game OUT of the dmg file?
Also check if you not run out of disk space
Yes.
mine stopped working. must have something to do with new patch

I now witnessed something interesting, my friend brought old notebook, and was showing me the game on windows, running same class as I am (summoner - best class to test issues as it is laggy as hell :). The lags, when casting spells and encountering rare mobs are on windows as well. So this is game issue after all! That explains why my attempts to hack wine code to run it faster were unsuccessful. I know that this does not occur on stronger windows computers (or in bootcamp), but the emulation on osx is not so advanced (and possibly never will be).

So if GGG fixes their issue the port should run flawlessly with only minor issues.

Note: This does not mean I will not release new version, if I find some improvements that can be done.

^^^^
Well, I guess that's both good and bad news considering those issues have been with the game for so long, hopefully GGG has a few performance improvements on the way....thx for letting us know. Cheers.

Try to do this:

1. open Terminal
2. enter command "sudo purge" or just "purge" if you get some error in terminal
3. wait till your RAM memory will clear
4. run POE and enjoy

this helped for me just a few minutes ago
