Could you add the following to the Unix command field

export DYLD_PRINT_LIBRARIES=YES

Then provide an updated LastRunWine.log

Added WS12WineCX64Bit23.7.1-3_D3DMetal-v1.1 that Engine is a rebuilt version of WS12WineCX64Bit23.7.1-3_rc2 but using the prior method of using D3DMetal.

Due to D3DMetal files being directly bundled inside this Engine the option is grayed put since it can't be disabled.

Attached is the LastRunWine.log wit the added Unix command

The new engine works ! Path of Exile started up as usual. Thanks. You can go ahead and close the report as fixed.

I won’t be closing this as I don’t consider this an actual solution more a workaround like the other solution l included inside the engine you tested.

I’ve been working on a more stable solution that’ll require all supported Engines to be rebuilt but has other advantages.

The mac-os channel has a pinned message with a link to a wiki page on the official poewiki site. It outlines how to install POE using Wineskinserver.

We’ve been working hard on a large backend change that also resolves the issues related to currently needing the -d3dmetal Engines again.

Hey sorry would you be able to resend the link? I was away from home so didn’t even get to see the message. Thank you for the response.

Have you managed to successfully make it work? If so I’d love to try. Also I have encountered a problem when I closed wine skin and reopened it, it won’t relaunch the game anymore. States there is some sort of error that the tmp or exe is still running in the background.

There still some bugs to iron out but once we’re happy we’ll push an update for all Wineskin users.

During testing the newly revised Engines (due to backend changes) are working nicely this includes fully functional CX24 and CXP based Engines.

Also I have encountered a problem when I closed wine skin and reopened it, it won’t relaunch the game anymore. States there is some sort of error that the tmp or exe is still running in the background.

It would be best to open an issue for this and provide as much formation as possible.

The game works in Kegworks with WineCX23.7.1 once renders/d3dmetal/2.0 is removed, once I provide WineCX24 engine it’ll work with D3DMetal-v2.0.
