Theatre of War Forum

I was very excited to see the gold rating here. I've been eyeing this game for a while and only the lack of mac compatibility kept me from buying it. On seeing the rating I bought it and installed it. It installed without a hitch into a fresh XP bottle, but when I tried to start it up I got the following message:

"Runtime error #3(trap)
Please, contact the vendor of this application."

Any ideas?

I'm on a unibody MacBook Pro 15 2.4 ghz, running Snow Leopard, and using Crossover Games 8.0.

I've run into the same problem, on an iMac Core 2 Duo running Snow Leopard and CXGames 8.0.

I've attempted various workarounds/fixes, like adding the Direct3D registry key and strings (in particular, the offscreenrenderer is set to backbuffer, for my ATI graphics), and following the suggestions on battlefront.com. Apparently this error occurs on PCs as well, and it is related to the video driver or the graphics chip. The relevant section of the log is as follows:
