Anyone with OSX problems?

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,781 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 I'm trying to deal with a problem that one player is having: the game crashes when they hit the 'Login' button. Is anyone else on OSX having this problem? ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Jul 21, 2014, 12:08 pm

If I opened the jar file (the updater) and entered my login & pw there it launched fine. Not sure if that helps. :-) Just tried the first way though and it worked fine... ......................... vet marshal deathrceL1 wv community combatL1 Posted Jul 21, 2014, 1:08 pm

The .jar file doesn't help. ...not being able to log in largely caused the death of two of my gladiators, and the injury of two others. That sucks... ...and I can't play. That sucks even more. I logged in fine this morning and played a scout encounter. I set up the gladiator combat on the website. I left the computer for a couple of minutes, when I came back the client had crashed. I have not been able to log back in since then, as it crashes at the press of the login button each time. Edit: I would download the game again and re-install, but hitting the download link brings me to a screen telling me to sign up, with no obvious way around it. Edit 2: Did this: *sam* said: you can edit  darkwind/client_params.txt set engineVersion: 140  to  engineVersion: 0 this forces a re-download Still doesn't work. ......................... vet gateautumn gwextrav raceL1 wv e2g0,2,0 Posted Dec 7, 2015, 4:33 pm Last edited Dec 8, 2015, 1:47 am by The Paranoid Tourist

I haven't gotten a single word even in confirmation that you have seen this and are working on it, or that you got my PM. (Maybe you didn't, I sent a new one today.) I'm still out of the game. ......................... vet gateautumn gwextrav raceL1 wv e2g0,2,0 Posted Dec 13, 2015, 12:51 pm

The Paranoid Tourist Precipitous Treachery Darkwind Guru Slavers Faction Group: Members Posts: 1,828 Joined: Jan 12, 2007 I guess the decision has been to ignore this. Oh, well. Consider my paid month when I couldn't play a donation to whatever project you have going on that you've deemed more important. ......................... vet gateautumn gwextrav raceL1 wv e2g0,2,0 Posted Dec 31, 2015, 3:27 pm

I will contact Sam for you and send you a direct PM when I get a response. I will also see about having your subscription extended since you have not been able to play. If you have any other immediate questions, you can PM me. ......................... vet wv marshal paintladder zom circuit3 paintball raceL1 race1 pvp4 hammer circuit2 pvp2 circuit1 gwped pvp5 pvp3 pvp1 deathrceL1 triangle1 combatL1 elmsautumn combat1 northernsummer1,3,0 Posted Dec 31, 2015, 5:52 pm

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,781 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 Sorry - yeah, as Xman says, extending the subscription isn't a problem. Did you try downloading the game again? You need to be logged on to do that. Your logon had presumably timed out when you hit the download link the last time. (I had to make it force you to be logged on to do the download after getting a DDOS attack a few years ago) ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Dec 31, 2015, 6:13 pm Last edited Dec 31, 2015, 6:17 pm by *sam*

*The X Man* Better Off Dead Darkwind Guru Slavers Faction Group: Game Manager Posts: 2,215 Joined: Jul 25, 2012 I found the Gladiator event that crashed. I restored the two characters that died and the injuries to the third one. ......................... vet wv marshal paintladder zom circuit3 paintball raceL1 race1 pvp4 hammer circuit2 pvp2 circuit1 gwped pvp5 pvp3 pvp1 deathrceL1 triangle1 combatL1 elmsautumn combat1 northernsummer1,3,0 Posted Dec 31, 2015, 6:22 pm

The Paranoid Tourist Precipitous Treachery Darkwind Guru Slavers Faction Group: Members Posts: 1,828 Joined: Jan 12, 2007 Thanks for the replies. I've tried several times to re-download. The download link either sends me to a page telling me that I have to sign up (I am already signed in) or, if I re-sign in immediately before going to the download, sends me to the forum front page. Tried again in another browser, and the download link sends me to a blank page with still no download. ......................... vet gateautumn gwextrav raceL1 wv e2g0,2,0 Posted Jan 1, 2016, 4:12 pm

*The X Man* Better Off Dead Darkwind Guru Slavers Faction Group: Game Manager Posts: 2,215 Joined: Jul 25, 2012 Are you accessing the client as administrator mode? If not, what you are describing has happened to me before. Once I ran things in admin mode, I had no more problems. Just right click on the DW client, the pop up window gives you the admin mode options there. See if this works for you. ......................... vet wv marshal paintladder zom circuit3 paintball raceL1 race1 pvp4 hammer circuit2 pvp2 circuit1 gwped pvp5 pvp3 pvp1 deathrceL1 triangle1 combatL1 elmsautumn combat1 northernsummer1,3,0 Posted Jan 1, 2016, 7:11 pm

*sam* The Salthill Sluggerz Darkwind Guru Renegade Group: Lead Developer Posts: 16,781 Joined: Jan 19, 2006 I have put the download into a public link (so you won't need to be logged in). I will PM it to you (since this forum is publicly visible). ......................... marshal vet deathrce1 paintladder combat1 wv ped1 cont slay2013 Posted Jan 7, 2016, 9:34 pm

Now I'm running Darkwind on a Virtual Machine with windows 10. It works fine, except that the mouse sensitivity is way High. ......................... vet wv paintladder Posted Jan 26, 2016, 12:24 am

*The X Man* Better Off Dead Darkwind Guru Slavers Faction Group: Game Manager Posts: 2,215 Joined: Jul 25, 2012 Check your AV. Try disabling it and see if you have the same issue. ......................... vet wv marshal paintladder zom circuit3 paintball raceL1 race1 pvp4 hammer circuit2 pvp2 circuit1 gwped pvp5 pvp3 pvp1 deathrceL1 triangle1 combatL1 elmsautumn combat1 northernsummer1,3,0 Posted Apr 8, 2016, 5:26 pm

Dark Destroyer Black Bullet Militia Sunday Driver Civs Faction Group: Members Posts: 66 Joined: Jul 13, 2008 Good idea but still freezing...it seems to be something to do with registering for events ......................... vet wv Posted Apr 9, 2016, 6:11 pm

*The X Man* Better Off Dead Darkwind Guru Slavers Faction Group: Game Manager Posts: 2,215 Joined: Jul 25, 2012 The AV may be keeping certain files from being downloaded. It freezes because it cannot find the files. These files include maps, tracks and arenas. You may need to uninstall client. Keep your AV disabled, then reinstall. Then try using the client and join an event. This should solve your issue. ......................... vet wv marshal paintladder zom circuit3 paintball raceL1 race1 pvp4 hammer circuit2 pvp2 circuit1 gwped pvp5 pvp3 pvp1 deathrceL1 triangle1 combatL1 elmsautumn combat1 northernsummer1,3,0 Posted Apr 10, 2016, 1:40 am Last edited Apr 10, 2016, 1:42 am by *The X Man*

Dark Destroyer Black Bullet Militia Sunday Driver Civs Faction Group: Members Posts: 66 Joined: Jul 13, 2008 Tried that still freezing...after registering for a race/combat/deathrace only.. Force quitting resets preferences which is frustrating too... ......................... vet wv Posted Apr 10, 2016, 8:19 pm

*The X Man* Better Off Dead Darkwind Guru Slavers Faction Group: Game Manager Posts: 2,215 Joined: Jul 25, 2012 I will have to let Sam know of your issue and see what he recommends for troubleshooting. ......................... vet wv marshal paintladder zom circuit3 paintball raceL1 race1 pvp4 hammer circuit2 pvp2 circuit1 gwped pvp5 pvp3 pvp1 deathrceL1 triangle1 combatL1 elmsautumn combat1 northernsummer1,3,0 Posted Apr 10, 2016, 8:40 pm

ShotGun Jolly Brotherhood of the Wheel Sunday Driver Merchants Faction Group: Members Posts: 43 Joined: Sep 2, 2007 Kinda resurrected this old thread, but I feel there is still some need to follow up. I run Dark Wind on two platforms, and I find that on the PC, the only time the game crashes is when I am running it in full screen mode. But on my mac, its always in the lobby screen and it can be ok for awhile, but if I click on an event, or gang button it could lock up. Just freezes. If I am scouting, the game could lock up while I am waiting for a scouting event to process, but if I can join a game, usually with in the first minute of logging on, I can play no problem until the event is over and I go back to the lobby where I usually crash right away. Still think its an AV Issue? ......................... vet wv deathrce1 combatL1 Posted Nov 15, 2017, 1:17 pm
