Age of Mythology Retold Forum

Copying from ticket:

https://www.codeweavers.com/support/tickets/browse/?ticket_id=1452077

Hello --

Trying the new Age of Mythology: Retold through Steam and getting a failure error upon launch. Entire error code attached, but first lines read:

"Unhandled exception: illegal instruction in 64-bit code (0x000001400d8b57)."

Has anyone experienced anything similar or know a work around? I've tried emulating both as Windows 10 and 11. Any suggestions would be appreciated, trying to evaluate if CrossOver is going to be a good solution to playing AOM.

Hello,

Thanks for reaching out to us with your issue. We are aware of this bug and we are working on a fix. Because the game is still brand new, we are still investigating the problem. As of right now there is no workaround that we know about. I will attach your ticket to the bug report so that you will be notified when a fix is found. Let me know if you have any questions about that.

Regards,
Codeweavers Support

Thank you -- looking forward to hearing when it is resolved. Do you have
any estimation for days/weeks/months to get to tickets like this and
resolve?

Kind regards,

Hello,

As of right now I don't have an estimation. We are hopeful that it can be fixed shortly, but I can't make any guarantees as of right now as we are still working on finding a fix that works.

There are approximately some 20+ threads on the AOM Retold Steam forums for folks looking for an answer to play on MAC, so if this fix is implemented, will be several folks I imagine signing up.

Kind regards,

Following support provided by other users:

I used the config from there which works for me. This has to be opened from the browser.

My steps I have done:

Install macOS Sequoia Beta
Install latest Crossover Preview
Install a new Bottle based on this config.
Install AoM Retold (I have the Steam version)
Should work now. Except the multiplayer.

However, still unable to launch, but a new error at least:

"There was an issue starting the renderer due to an error:

Missing Feature: Resource Binding Tier2

Please check your graphics driver is up to date and y our machine meets the minimum requirements."

Any suggestions? Appreciate the help!

Okay I Manually Update Visual C++ Redistributables, then restarted computer and it worked! Confirmed thank you for the help!

Has someone a working multiplayer without desync?

New AOM Patch coming today, and server maintenance tomorrow specifically for multiplayer -- will wait to see once this is complete.

Hi, just waiting too for any update in order to confirm if Crossover will work to play Age of Mythology Retold. Hopefully, it will, if so I'll be buying it immediately!

I can 100% confirm that it works, but not multiplayer. You can play single player, campaign, replays, etc. but multiplayer is still crashing immediately upon joining a game with an opponent.

I've also been trying to get AOM Retold to work on my 2017 imac, won't update to macOS Sequoia etc - which Visual C++ Redistributables is the one that should be installed with the software itself?

As I've been running into this issue that has been mentioned before -

"Missing Feature: Resource Binding Tier2
Please check your graphics driver is up to date and y our machine meets the minimum requirements."

Thanks all!

Hey everyone!

Can anyone please suggest a possible fix to run the game?
What C++ lib needs to be installed?

Update:
Issue solved, no need to install C++ libs.

Hi folks,

Multiplayer is working on the latest CrossOver Preview, which is available to anyone with active entitlements.

Best,
Meredith

I was able to run a game with no issues after updating to Sequoia and getting Crossover Preview.

Missing Feature: Resource Binding Tier2
This one was solved by enabling D3DMetal graphics in the Crossover Bottle settings.
I am so glad that Crossover exists.
