New patch broken on MacOS?

Update: I didn't even use wine stables. Just opened up my old wineskin link and it worked.

Yes I have that pixelated/blurry text effect as well, and every time I zone, my display turns to really high gamma momentarily. Neither are terrible, but a bit strange.

Anyone know a way to fix this? Changing font size to a bigger font size sort of fixes it, but only in the chat windows. All the other text (Spells, hotkeys, group etc) stay blurry

That's cool.
Do you mean that we can solve it by merely downgrade wineskin version?
What is the version of your old wineskin? Thanks!!

[draconov]

I didn't downgrade anything. I kept the same version for years. I was at my last resort too. Was about to give up with stables when I said " What the hell, I'll just open it up like I've always done". Boom, it just worked. Running High Sierra still with Wineskin 2.6.2 wrapper.

Thanks! Downloaded the 2.6 version of wineskin, reinstalled, and now I am back in action.

Can you link to the 2.6 version or 2.6.2? I can only find the version 1.7 download link.

That's odd, you didn't change anything compared to the first time you tried?

I can't get it working at all, used to open it with Wineskin 2.6.2 before.

Was careful as well not to copy complete folders so the issue is definitely not there. However I am running Mac OS Mojave, so that might be why it isn't working.

Hope they come with an update for us mac users who aren't so tech savvy.

When you open wineskin winery, you will need to delete your current engine by hitting the minus button. Then, hit the plus button. search for 2.6. Select that engine, then install like normal.

My shellscript looks like this:

#!/bin/bash

export WINEDEBUG=-d3d,fixme-all,-loaddll,err-all
export FREETYPE_PROPERTIES="truetype:interpreter-version=35"

cd ".wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/Sony/EverQuest"
wine eqgame.exe patchme

The first export suppresses the errors and warnings.

The second export fixes the blurred fonts issues by setting another font handling in xquartz

I have a short cut on my desktop to Wine Stable and start the shellscript in the terminal window that opens by type sh Everquest.sh

Do you mean you got it to work using only wineskin or wineskin+wine ?
