Hey,I'm running Guild Wars in Crossover Games 7.1.0 on a MacBook Pro(Leopard 10.5.5)

Guild Wars worked perfectly when I was using Crossover Games 6 but when I updated,Guild Wars started to look like this:

The log-in screen looks fine and the game doesn't move slow it just looks weird when I enter the game.

Help please. Thanks.

Hey i have just recently encountered the same issue .. im not sure where the problem lies though. It was running fine on Crossover 7.1.1 for me .. but i updated from tiger to leopard (on a macbook pro) and now my screen looks like yours. the terrain seems fine..but all the interfaces and character and environment models fail to render properly. i tried reinstalling both crossover and the game to no avail. different resolutions seem to lesson or amplify the effect but i cant get rid of it.

I'm also having the same issue :(

I'm on a C2Duo iMac (2GHz) with the Radeon X1600.

We've got a fix in the works. CrossOver Games 7.2 is currently in beta testing. I've given you each access to the Beta Center -- actually, Dinah, you're already an advocate, so you already had access. Please test and report your results at the Beta Reporting page.

I actually have exactly the same problem.

I run CrossOver Games 7.1.1 on Leopard right now and i could produce exactly the same screenshot as Sammy here (where it not that I have other characters (-; )

I also use a Macbook Pro 2.16 C2D with a x1600 graphics card.

I am just wondering what the feedback was on the fix and, if there is a fix, I would love to know.

I'd like to access the beta as well Ken. I've been using the app for a good while now. Please let me in so I can see how Guild Wars works on my Mac. Thanks

Dwayne and Remko, I have given both of you access to the Beta Center, at the links above. Please give it a test and let us know what you find. Thanks.

I am also having this issue, can only really get it to run in dx8 with no shaders. Would it be possible to try this beta? This game is sorta the deciding factor (well only really) behind my crossover purchase :x Cheers,

Nick

waiting for the resolution!

Thanks, I'll test out the beta tonight. I'll report my findings tomorrow.

So far so good on the beta. I haven't seen any artifacts or distortion in Guild Wars. Man, I missed my GW. Excuse me, I think I have something in my eye...

Hi,

I just wanted to add another data-point. I installed 7.1.1 on my Mac with OS 10.5.6 tonight, and I'm getting exactly the same issue with Guild Wars.

If there's any progress on the issue, or if I'm just plain missing something, please post it here.

Thank you all so much.

OK, being new to Crossover, I went exploring, looking for a bandaid. The suggestion on the Tips and Tricks tab, adding '-dx8 -noshaders -windowed -dsound' to the end of the GW command worked. It's not the prettiest game I've ever seen, but it's definitely playable now.

Thanks, and I hope this helps.

I have an iMac C2Duo playing on RadeonX1600. With Tiger, the GW graphics on version 7.1.1 were fine but after upgrading to Leopard, the screen turned into like the one Sammy992 posted. I tried adding the text for the GW command and it worked. Thank you, Zach for your post. It helped a lot. 😊

I'm having the same issues. Might I get access to the beta as well?
