Hello,

 

So, as the title says I am trying to launch L2 C3 on my iMac. I have installed the client via Wine with no problems. I can launch the game but when I enter my log in and password nothing happens. I did not apply any patch (as it is working just fine without one on my PC laptop I figured a patch using Wine is not necessary either).

 

My question is - does your L2 client require patches? If not - is it at all possible to launch L2 C3 on a Mac using Wine?

 

Regards,

Quetz

yup, client must work on Wine, check firewall or antivirus, maybe something is blocking.

[Quetz]

No, I do not get any messages that would indicate that something is wrong.

 

Another thing - how to check firewall settings for L2 in WINE? I am not a programmer and I use WINE to play EVE online mostly.

 

Thanks for your answer Koner.

Some antivirus even web browser like to kill our system .

I have replaced system file with the one you provided. Effect is the same - after entering ID and PWD Log in button does nothing. According to my wine uninstaller I have only L2 and EVE installed. My firewall settings indicate I am allowing wine server all incoming connections (otherwise I would not be able to play EVE). AVAST is disabled for the moment. After running wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Lineage\ II\ c3/system1/L2.exe I get the following:

 

wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Lineage\ II\ c3/system1/L2.exe

I have no clue what tis means. First 3 stubs are caused by AGP who disappears after I press OK in the table that appears. Log In is inactive.

 

Any thoughts what can I do?

 

Help is very much appreciated.

AVast my old enemy:

I think is time to send some emails to avast team.

[Lineage2C1-Staff]

Please  if you finally are able to connect let us know procedure to setup L2 at mac , some players interested

[Quetz]

Hmm, so you think it's my Avast that is preventing L2. Why do you think so? During installation I did not receive any warnings whatsoever. Today I'll try reinstalling everything with AVast disabled.

 

Should I be successful in finally launching L2 I will definitely let everyone know how I did it. 

[Lineage2C1-Staff]

Please read full article about antivirus:

 

Need redownload and reinstall.

 

And yes avast  , windows defender , or even google browser  can modify files that you download without anywarn

 

Thats the today technology it believe more smart than user hehe

[Quetz]

So I have tried to do everything again. Uninstalled L2 from the computer using wine uninstaller, removed all remaining files associated with it.

Here is what I did step by step:

 

1. Disabled AVast and firewall;
2. Downloaded L2 exe client and system patch;
3. Installed L2 (without any issues, just like before);
4. Deleted system folder and replaced it with the downloaded one;
5. Firewall and Avast still disabled;
6. Launched the game - the on-screen picture appeared together with a notificaion "The game may not be consistent because AGP is deactivated. Please activate AGP for consistancy." Pressed OK and the game loaded;
7. Entered ID and PSW and pressed Log in - nothing happened; 
8. Exited the game screen and checked terminal;
9. That's what the terminal showed:

wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/Lineage\ II\ c3/system/L2.exe

Sadly I did not make any progress. Any more suggestions?

[Lineage2C1-Staff]

You did all correctly . maybe server baned you for flood (Try loging many times). test again on a while. sometimes i need restart Auth server.

[Quetz]

I have tried to log in yesterday, and the day before that, also today - just a few times, once or twice in a few hours. Nothing happened. Game is still inactive. It seems it is a much harder challenge to run L2 on a Mac via Wine than I thought in the beginning.

 

As I am not an expert in such matters and having exhausted every possibility I can think of I can admit defeat. Too bad.
