It doesn't work that way. You install the game inside the wrapper. You can then move the wrapper to your Applications folder if you wish.Brendan Bellinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11934784225240590388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397017041854661738.post-34057662884707889052020-08-29T19:51:34.239-07:002020-08-29T19:51:34.239-07:00Bayleaf, I used to run this on El Capitan as well,...Bayleaf, I used to run this on El Capitan as well, so I don't think your OS is an issue. The c: drive you are installing on is in the wrapper, so I suggest you install it there. There is no reason to install it elsewhere. Also you don't say whether you are using my wrapper or trying to create your own. I suggest you use my wrapper and carefully go through the install steps again. Good luck.Brendan Bellinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11934784225240590388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397017041854661738.post-80667483161524817302020-08-28T11:49:37.949-07:002020-08-28T11:49:37.949-07:00If it helps my mac is;

I've gotten 99% of the way there on a 2018 Macbook Pro, but have hit one final hurdle: Once I get past the Launcher and the game is starting, the screen whites out and I get two notices:<br /><br />1. Unable to detect a video card with 3d acceleration, please make sure its enabled<br /><br />2. Hardware 3D acceleration appears to be disabled, please make sure its enabled<br /><br />I've tried disabling hardware switching but that leads to no change. All the research I do is hazy but seems to imply that my computer should have it in order to support Metal. Do you have any ideas on how I can proceed?Loganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09315657153448234811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397017041854661738.post-35384003108730165102016-09-09T10:19:15.268-07:002016-09-09T10:19:15.268-07:00Invaluable, you mean, I hope :) You play fast.

First suggestion would be to upgrade your OS, which you should do anyway. If it is an incompatibility with your video card though then upgrading probably won't help. You could consider going the Bootcamp route and installing Windows 10 on the Bootcamp partition and installing there.Brendan Bellinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11934784225240590388noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397017041854661738.post-74465704958684094302016-08-29T11:42:40.863-07:002016-08-29T11:42:40.863-07:00Brendan, the author of the wrapper knows a lot abo...Brendan, the author of the wrapper knows a lot about the whole thing. All I could say is I never moved to El Capitan myself. Yosemite guy here, and the Brendan's wrapper on that page works excellently. I think, not sure, wrappers are very sensitive to the Mac OSX they've been built around. I suggest you try following Brendan's guide to make your own wrapper around your very personal OSX. <br />Another thing that comes to mind, it could be an installation problem around your campaign and modules folders.jean-marc lézineauhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14756075282926093220noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397017041854661738.post-22601394000433362792016-08-29T10:37:34.499-07:002016-08-29T10:37:34.499-07:00Hey, thanks for doing this!

I've tried to follow your directions and I downloaded your wineskin wrapper, but when I start up the game, I can get thru the intro screens but at the point where you choose which campaign or module, my text goes all squirrely as in "fhdjla;hfjweaf" and the buttons disappear. I can't select anything, but the music is still playing. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong? I'm running an iMac from 2013 on El Capitan 10.11.2, with NVIDIA GeForce GT 755M. Thanks for any suggestions - would love to go back and play this game but my wife made me get a Mac so it's been difficult!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12146845745850605999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3397017041854661738.post-33646494462472728772016-08-17T20:02:16.879-07:002016-08-17T20:02:16.879-07:00I'm not French, no.
