I have been playing GMod for a while on my macbook, and then upgraded to one of the late '08 macbook pros, and the game stopped working. When it launched, there were black boxes behind all of the text and where any windows were. after choosing a map, my game loads halfway, then crashes. Does anyone know what is going on/how to fix it?
Hmm. This sounds like the GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object bug, but we have a test that detects this bug and disables PBOs on these machines :-/
How can I fix it?
If this is really the bug I suspect, then you can't fix it. Its a problem in the driver.
Ok, there's a very hacky way to stop CrossOver from using this functionality. Somewhere in the CrossOver Games.app, there's a file wined3d.dll.so. Open it with a hex editor, and search for the string "GL_ARB_pixel_buffer_object", and change it to something else, like "XX_ARB_pixel_buffer_object". That will stop crossover from using this extension.
