Display problems with 3.017
« on: December 12, 2006, 06:41:42 pm »
Just downloaded 3.017 . I am using  OSX 10.4 on a macbookpro and also on on Intel Imac (identical problems on both machines)

I have display problems ... see attached screenshots.

Also when the game does run it is very slow (cursor movements etc ) and Activity monitor shows it as using 100% cpu

The first is the PSsetup screen .... it crashes on starting a couple of times and then does start up but looks as in pic



The second is the login screen ...



Third is game screen ... at first the entire window is pixellated



then after about 10 - 15 secs it clears except for the info window which stays as in screenshot. I had none of these problems with the last  version

lol exactly in this moment i wanted to post the same issue. I'm having the same problem on the same windows with my new intel iMac. updater, psclient and pssetup now ceased to work compleaty. Two Days ago i read through an other thread, where someone advised "crossover", to use the pc version on a mac. The funny thing is, that running it causes the same grafic bugs. But it is still lauchable and playable, appart of the tiny problem that my computer freezes when i press the run button (apple+alt+esc doesn't help)..
So maybe this is a intel mac problem.

I have the exact same graphical problems that you described.  I haven't gotten psssetup to stay open though (as in, not quit before it finishes opening), but perhaps I just haven't opened it enough times.

I have the exact same problem aswell, but not in the login screen, character screen, or loading screen. Just in-game windows (especially health, mana, and stamina window)

Like Sun and Moon, the only issues I am having are the in the health, mana and stamina windows (but I'm not complaining, happy to just be able to be on). I am running 10.4 on an i-book.

Same problem on my MacBook Pro. I also can't get pssetup to stay open long enough to use.

Just wondering if anyone has found a solution to this yet? I am also experiencing graphic problems like those mentioned above (it affects my whole screen and is pretty bad). I'm using a Macbook Pro.

Now here's a weird thing


I tried running the Windows version on my Intel Mac using Crossover (a Windows emulator). Yes, it works, but with very similar screen problems and the set up program won't load.

It seems the problem is a bit more fundamental - something to do with the Mac architecture - maybe Chaos or DFryer could look at this?

I have the same issue, but it only affects the stamina/health window, chat window, and shortcut window.  It also is messed up on the character selection page, but in a different way.

Will this ever get fixed! I REALLY want to play the game while being able to read how to play it, and what my health is, etc.

Please fix this! Please!  :'( :(  :'(

Dfryer's looking at it. Please be patient. He has other issues to address first, such as the people who can't open the game at all. ;)
