That shouldn't matter.  You needed to do that for the old (7.10 and prior) mesa, but the newer mesa can be built on newer and run on older (assuming you pass -mmacosx-version-min=10.5

log?

If you're gonna use the "old" mesa, use 7.10 (get all the patches from git, I'm not sure if the last 7.10.x release contained everything).

Now's a good time to do that.

They're mainly *CORRECTNESS* issues, not performance.  The older build will have trouble on newer versions as it will calim to support features but not give access to them.

So far I haven't personally found any other game that raises this error, and STO didn't use to either until an update 6 months ago or so.. they changed how they were doing something.  I don't play it too often and when I do I just run a Virtual Desktop and it doesn't crash… someone gifted me a Lifetime Membership back during beta so it is free to me :-)

Ok, well I'd like to figure it out, but if it's too much hastle, this might just be put of until the 3.0 rewrite which nukes the code it is using.

> on RCT3 - I had tested it 4 times before I sent that email… but now I went to get more logs and its working fine… 100% fine, and no idea why.  Its launching with no problems now and it switches fullscreen and windowed with quartz-wm acting great with it… I have no idea why it was solid white the first 4 times.  It sticks in the screen captured mode fullscreen though, but I'm not sure thats an XQuartz problem, it looks like the game is not sending anything to Wine to know it should be trying to change resolutions again…. and it won't affect Wineskin since it is going to shut down the whole X server and switch back wether the game says to or not.

You scared it away.  Congrats.

> Neverputt… you can play with that easily since its free, and it works by default in almost any version of Wine platinum.  I do not know why it auto minimizes, but you can get it back… the troubling part is that quartz-wm just vanishes and the windows are then non-decorated… but that might all be part of the bug you are talking about.  Wine already has known issues with window managers quite often, is why they have the option to disable them anyways.

Yeah, I want to have a fix for this in the 2.7.0 timeframe.  If you could file a bug report to nag me, that would be nice, but I'm "on it".

Thanks.  Keep reporting what's wrong.  That's the only way it gets better.
