Whenever I try to enter Trench Wars, the warbird in the middle of the screen just freezes and when I finally 'enter' the zone I've been automatically disconnected, sometimes after being PM'd by the entry bots. This happens in every zone, I'm guesssing it's because my Mac can't download maps well. This is really becoming a problem, as I want to play when I get back to school (on my mac, I use a desktop at home)
I think i got everything right, got Continuum installed got it show in ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Continuum/
when i try to run it wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Continuum/Continuum.exe, it doesnt load anything. I am not sure what to do with the continuum.sh it opens up Xcode with 3 lines of code, but nothing runs, am I doing something wrong?
I followed the walkthrough, and i installed wine, macports and now i am at the adding an application part. However in there I am browsing throught my newly created drive_c, but i can't find the continuum.exe.
Hi! I followed all the steps in your walkthough, but it doesn't say anything about how to run it when finished. What'd you type in Terminal to get this up?
The ~/ represents your home folder, where Terminal should be as default as the current working directory. The use of .wine is to show that it is a hidden folder.
Hey i can get to the open MacPorts-1.8.0.pkg step on your walkthrough, and it says Macports-1.8.0 cant be installed on this computer, it is intended for 10.5. What should i do? If i download the newer macport will it work? If so how do i go about changing the walkthrough to go with the new version of macport?
I can only assume that Macports is not installing as you may not have UNIX dev tools installed. You will be able to find these from your OS X install disk. Please make sure that the install disk matches your operating system, for example if you're running Snow Leopard then use a Snow Leopard install disk.
As far as I know Macports should install on 10.4, however if this error persists I'll direct you to some tutorials for installing from source.
Hey! Thanks for the response, although I'm not using snow leopard, just leopard. Any other ideas? Also, when trying run terminal, do I need to do a clean install everytime I start over, including wine, and macports?
I haven't. I don't have the Leopard CD on hand... Can I just use the Tiger CD, to install the Unix Dev tools? What do I need to do, just to install the tools?
---> Computing dependencies for bisonError: Unable to execute port: can't read "build.cmd": Failed to locate 'make' in path: '/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/sbin' or at its MacPorts configuration time location, did you move it?
If you're using Snow Leopard, you will need to insert your Snow Leopard install DVD, and install 'UNIX Dev Tools', this is a requirement for Macports.
not really sure how to get to the log. i usually play on trench wars anyway, but if you know how i can change the resolution [theres no option in the game itself] let me know
Is there any specific output from the wine logs that I could look at? It sounds like it could be a zlib error, either that or a common OpenGL/Direct3D error but without any log information I am unsure.

Hi I need help. I am not too tech savvy but I followed the walkthrough to the T, and when I got to this point
$ ./configure --disable-win16
It gives me
-bash: ./configure: No such file or directory
And I did install XCode 3.2.x so I do need to disable win 16....
Can someone help me? Also I don't need to have windows XP installed do i? If I do how do I do that?
Thanks so much!

Hey,
I followed the walkthrough, and i installed wine, macports and now i am at the adding an application part. However in there I am browsing throught my newly created drive_c, but i can't find the continuum.exe.
I also tried the
$ wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Continuum/Continuum.exe
Command, but then the terminal replies to me with
cannot find '/Users/rikspeel/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Continuum/Continuum.exe'
So i guess it can't find it ;)
Have you got a clue? Thanks!!

Hi,
Download the Continuum installer, and $ wine path/to/continuum_installer.exe
That will resolve your issues, you should then find Continuum at
$ wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Continuum/Continuum.exe
Good luck,

Hi,
You'll have to type into Terminal the following:
wine path/to/continuum.exe
The path you'll need will be hidden however it should be the following:
$ wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Continuum/Continuum.exe
The ~/ represents your home folder, where Terminal should be as default as the current working directory. The use of .wine is to show that it is a hidden folder.
burkie1000 2 years ago
If you'd like to show hidden files and folders in finder, enter the following commands into Terminal:
$ defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE
$ killall finder
To hide those hidden files again, replace the TRUE for FALSE.

Have you tried inserting your Leopard DVD, and installing UNIX Dev Tools?
burkie1000 2 years ago
I haven't. I don't have the Leopard CD on hand... Can I just use the Tiger CD, to install the Unix Dev tools? What do I need to do, just to install the tools?
R0CKETS0LDIER 2 years ago
So, I slipped in my Tiger OS X cd, (It's what I have on-hand) and there's a few things to choose from, as far as "Dev Tools" go.
There's DevDocumentation.pkg, and DeveloperTools.pkg, and DevsExamples.pkg, and DevSDK.pkg.
Would any of those, that are listed, fix the install problem that I'm having? Thanks!
R0CKETS0LDIER 2 years ago
It is DeveloperTools.pkg, and it should fix the error that you're having.

Hey, I'm in the middle of trying to install this, and have come across a snag.
Macintosh:wine-1.1.29 ****$ sudo port install bison ftgl libpng xrender fontconfig freetype xorg

Whats that mean?

I hope this helps.

In the Continuum window click on View - > Advanced Options and check the tick box "Show Default Resolutions"
