Known Not To Work on Mac Games 7.0

Howdy, tried to get this to run on Mac Games 7.0. Installed IE 6.0, DCom98 and was able to get Silkroad to install and update. After updating to 1.411 and trying to play, the game would not run. The GameShield (or whatever its called loaded and ran, and after waiting a bit for it to initialize I got a popup box saying "Reset Error D3DERR_INVALIDCAL", when I hit okay it pops into a black screen of the resolution I specified and hangs for a few seconds and then exits. If anyone else has similar errors or any suggestions, feel free to share them.

It WORKS!!! i installed the dx runtimes, dx 9. It would start and fail to update, so after reading around online that it worked with wine, i installed darwine on my mac, Tried to install silkroad, and it would fail. So I thought well let me install it in crossover games, then try to run it with darwine, what happened was when i started the install, it finished, then started silkroad, and started to update it...I was shocked...I tried to start the game, and it started right up....

No idea what happened.. the only thing I did was install the direct x runtimes, direct x 9 in crossover, darwine, and since then, it runs in crossover games just fine.. ....

More stuff...

So it still gives this net engine error it seems if it cant connect the second time around....However, im running this in a windows 2000 bottle,

so start up winecfg, and add the app silkroad.exe , and switch the windows version to 98 ....

It's running just fine for me. I didn't realize that I could download IE and install it as well. I ended up downloading it on a PC and then copying it over to my Mac. One issue I run into is not being able to buy silk.

Works beautifully for me... Nothing special, just using and XP Bottle. Downloaded with safari 3.1.2

you need to go preferences, click the advanced tab and tick to show develop menu. Open the develop menu and you can simulate ie7 from this menu... make sure the address is "www.silkroadonline.net" and not "http://www.silkroadonline.net/userenv.htm" when trying to load the page. If you try to load the page, it will redirect you to "/userenv.htm" if you havent chosen to simulate ie7 on the tab your using to go to silkroads site.

i hope this makes sense. any troubles.... reply :D
