ok, so i bought the game and tried to launch it, on my retina macbook pro. it crashed. with the error in the screen shot.

it says not compatible with intel cards. but i have an intel video chip, and also the nvidia card on here too. maybe it's trying to use the wrong card?

make sure the nvidia card is active - you should be able to force its use via a control panel of some sort.

i tried that, and it still didn't work.

you should have a shock2.log in the game's folder, try posting it here.

looks like the game is having trouble finding a valid resolution mode. try running windowed - edit cam_ext.cfg with a notepad equivalent, and remove ; from the beginning of the force_windowed line, so it will look like this:

force_windowed
save and try to run the game again.

you sure you've edited the proper file? the one directly in the SS2 folder? post the new shock2.log.

i tried changing game screen size to something lower also, a no go.

when i run a test run with the wineskin app in the package. it shows that it sees both graphics chips. even though i told it in the energy saver preferences to use the nvidia chip. somehow i think wine is seeing the other chip and trying to use that?

try adding
game_screen_size 1024 768
into your cam.cfg (the line should not exist there yet - if it does, replace it).
Posted February 15, 2014
when i run it as test in the wineskin app it asks if i want to look at the logs.

fixme:d3d:init_driver_info Unable to find a driver/device info for vendor_id=0x10de device_id=0xfd5 for driver_model=2
fixme:win:EnumDisplayDevicesW ((null),0,0x32f2dc,0x00000000), stub!

the vendor id above is also the same as the one it says is for my nvidia chip. so it looks like it is trying to use the nvidia chip. but just failing.

it's been a while since I've ran the game via wine, but I think the game is not able to find a proper D3D device (Direct3D HAL instead of intel or nvidia). not exactly a mac expert so not sure what can be done here - do you have any other D3D games that you run via wine? do they work?

try the dx6 safemode - edit cam_ext.cfg again, and place a ; right before use_d3d_display so it will look like this:

;use_d3d_display
also, wine should have some sort of D3D settings, can you check what's in there? if I remember correctly, it should have two modes, maybe try switching them.

this would suggest that that the D3D part of wine is not working at all. any chance of trying out a different D3D game to confirm this?
