Hi everyone!

Whenever I try to start the game, it starts to load and the symbol in the dock is jumping.. but then nothing else happens. No damage message or anything. It just won't start.
Already tried "FAQ and solutions for known issues for Mac OS" from another topic but nothing worked. The problem's still there =/
I'm having the same issue....Tried repairing and verifying...nothing is getting it to work...It worked perfect on Mac about a year ago...Someone please help!!! THis is my favorite game!!

I was having this same issue and realized the game was actually running, just in a very tiny "window" (1px wide by about 15px tall). The trick is to let the game boot until you see the "Go" teddy bear icon in your dock - it may take awhile after the initial icon bouncing. Click on the teddy bear icon (it will say Wine in your top menu bar) and then hit return. I hope that works for you.

Edit - This appears to be the result of the Direct3D config window not displaying correctly. There is a way to get around it by changing the "Windows EXE" in the advanced Wineskin options (to launch Shadowman.exe instead of D3DConfigUtility.exe), but I hope the app gets updated to fix this problem along with the associated display issues/limitations.

Thanks for your reply.
I tried your solutions, both. I hit enter when the teddy icon appeared and I changed the "Windows EXE" but all I get is a grey screen. Nothing more, nothing less. This is kind of frustrating.. xD
