this is the only game i have that uses a wine wrapper.

here.

also, try this: run Wineskin.app. In the Screen Options, you should see a checkbox that says 'Use Mac Driver instead of X11'. Uncheck that box.

tried that too. didn't work. bleh :(

it's actually the EXE file that crashes. i tried to find a 3d demo or something that uses direct 3d to test. just so i could see the 3d stuff work.

well yes, that was pretty obvious from the screenshot. what's important here is the reason - and so far it seems like no valid D3D adapter is available. unless you solve that somehow, it's not going to work. as for d3d demo try unreal tournament, lets say 2003, the demo should be available. if it fails to run, consider the no D3D adapter theory confirmed.

fixed it. got a new mac. so it works great on the new 27 inch iMac.

this game did not like the retina display 15 inch. maybe because it had the intel chip in there too.
