Black Screen but can hear sound

Running 10.5.6 on my Mac Pro with CrossOver Games 7.1.1. When Guild Wars starts I can hear sound but it's a black screen and I can see the mouse cursor. I'm not sure what the problem is or how to resolve it. Any ideas?

Figured it out... Added -dx9 -windowed to the command line. "-windowed" was my choice, don't have to play in windowed mode if you don't want to.

I don't understand what you did, can you please tell me where to go, and what to do to solve this unbearable problem. Thanks :D

Go to 'Programs' on the Menu Bar.

Select 'Run Command…'

Point Crossover to GW.exe. At the end of the path, add the above lines, which the other user mentioned.
