Gameguard prevents games from running in crossover?

Hi Guys,

I am having trouble running TalonRO which is a ragnarok online private server.
I am on Mac OSX 10.6.7 Snow Leopard and I am using Version 11.2.2 (11.2.2.26246).
After that I ran the game it just freezes on the opening screen where I
can't even move my mouse around and I have to force quit it.
When it is frozen the intro screen the music is still playing.

Im sure its because of the gameguard. So i just want to know if you guys
support gameguard because this stops crossover to play online games
with gameguard. And a lots of online games uses gameguard.

Thanks
Mac user that cannot
play because of gameguard

Two things could be a factor here.

1: Are you using a modified RO client downloaded from TalonRO website? If so, there is probably no way we will be able to provide support for it. Unless someone else goes about installing the client and trying to get it to launch as well.

2: If you searched the What Runs? database you would have found that nProtect GameGuard is not compatible with Crossover at this time (http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name/?app_id=4654). I am curious how a private RO server would be running something like GameGuard. I don't think vanilla RO runs it.

You may want to check out the official game: http://www.codeweavers.com/compatibility/browse/name/?app_id=86. Looks like it works fine.
