Hey Izual, why don't you go to CodeWeavers and tell them you're advertising their product on this forum? If they'll give a damn, they might give you some bingedrink money.

Izual:
If you have a free alternative, I'll be happy to put it instead.

Lacan:
Thanks for your work !

Using Crossover, i did manage to make it work.

A few differences here though, so if you're having trouble (starting Fonline.exe does nothing), maybe this can help :

[i'm using Mac os X leopard and i'm a total noob at it.]

+The installation is fine, just do ''open...'' then choose the installer.

+Then I had to copy the folder Crossover created to put it somewhere else, so i could open the files in the folder using the ''open...'' command.

To have CrossOver show the folder, you have to go to ''manage Bottles'', then to advanced, then ''Open C: drive in finder''.

+Then copy the folder somewhere on your drive.

Now, with this technic apparently, the updater works. I found out about that later so maybe you just need to run it with crossover then start the game.

+ But I had to do a manual update, using a updated folder of fonline. Here are the files you have to copy to update the game, basically all .dat files (Thanks AhBobsaget) :

baldude
cablack
cadesert
CRITTER
FACTION
faction001
faction002
faction003
faction004
faction005
faction006
faction007
faction008
FONLINE
fonline001
fonline002
khancrit
longhairdude
MASTER
othercrit
unarmedcass
vaultboy

and fonline.exe.

At this point, the game was starting but i would get an Error on start.

+Then, one last thing :

Copy all d3dxxx.dll you can find in up-to-date fonline folder to your new fonline folder.

It resolved the last problems i was having.

Since it was a pain for me, i thought i'd put up all the info that was useful to me in here, maybe it'll help other folks. Oh and now the updater works.

Many thanks to Misiolap, a true Wine Warrior.

Good luck !

I had a problem with wine, after several logins, game tells me to wait 10 minutes(relogin timeout) no matter how long I waited. I got rid of that only re-installing wine and then it happened again.

Lacan:
This would happen to me even using windows.

I had to go back to the last char i used, log out on worldmap, then it would work... Sounds random maybe )
