Hello LotRO Mac Forum,
I have recently encountered a problem with the LotRO live client, and wondered if someone here might be able to help me problem solve, seeing as the devs aren't especially Mac-savvy. The gist of my problem is this: I am running OSX 10.14 Mojave, and the live client worked perfectly fine up until today (last played on Friday). However, when I tried to run it this afternoon, I got a "Wine has encountered an error" box that pops up and stops the python loading process for the initial sign-in window.
I peeked at the error log, and noticed there was mention of a "nodrv_CreateWindow" error. I tried to reinstall homebrew and update Wine but still get the same error message. The odd part is that my Bullroarer Client loads fine, but the live client does not!Normally, I run lotro from steam, but I also have the steamapps folder bookmarked to access various executable files. Running the lotro executable directly didn't work either
I am attaching my error log to this message with code tags with the hope that maybe someone will see something I missed!
Cheers,
Throilo

The line "Wine build: wine-4.5 (Staging)" indicates that you are attempting to run LOTRO using the very old version of WINE installed as part of SSG's "Mac Download". If this is the error message you received after attempting to run the game following an installation of the current wine-stable (7.0) or wine-devel (7.15), then you either failed to complete the installation of WINE or you did not launch the game in a way that would cause it to be run by the version of WINE you installed using Homebrew – the game is still attempting to launch using the old version of WINE packaged for you by SSG.

I peeked at the error log, and noticed there was mention of a "nodrv_CreateWindow" error. I tried to reinstall homebrew and update Wine but still get the same error message. The odd part is that my Bullroarer Client loads fine, but the live client does not! Normally, I run lotro from steam, but I also have the steamapps folder bookmarked to access various executable files. Running the lotro executable directly didn't work either 
I am attaching my error log to this message with code tags with the hope that maybe someone will see something I missed!
System information:
Wine build: wine-4.5 (Staging)
Platform: i386 (WOW64)
Version: Windows 7
Host system: Darwin
Host version: 18.7.0
Assuming you followed the instructions here...
https://forums.lotro.com/forums/show...pler-procedure
...and successfully installed either wine-stable or wine-devel using Homebrew, you need to launch the game using the method described in Step E in that thread. If you use the "lotroclient" Mac application stub to launch the game, it will launch within the old WINE 4.5 bottle. If you see the Python script window appear before the LOTRO Launcher application opens, the game is launching within the old bottle and is not using the more modern version of WINE you installed or attempted to install via Homebrew.
All that said, there is no good reason you should have run into a problem today when the old version of WINE and the game installation worked for you two days ago. That is odd but sometimes files become corrupted or other odd things happen.
However, getting one of those two recent versions of open-source WINE installed using Homebrew and then launching the game as described in Step E of the first message of the linked thread should work. While it's not impossible it just isn't working for you for a reason we have not yet determined, it is more likely that you made an error installing WINE or attempting to launch LOTRO using the more modern version of WINE which you installed.
Please try again, and if the game fails to run using wine-stable WINE 7.0 or wine-devel WINE 7.15 (depending on which version you install as part of Step D), please give me the details about your Mac (exact model, amount of RAM, video card, amount of VRAM) and a dump of your UserPreferences.ini file (with your account name redacted) and we'll work together from there to figure something out that will get you back into the game. Also, please tell me if there is any difference between how you are launching the Bullroarer version of the game vs how you are launching the standard version of the game.Last edited by Tralfazz; Sep 04 2022 at 09:39 PM.

Thank you for the reply! I thought there was something odd about Wine being only version 4.5! I have done as suggested by your thread and do indeed have 2 wine processes installed, and I have selected the newer one when I use the LotroLauncher.exe. However, I am running into a new problem where the client gets hung up on processing the Visual C++ components. Normally I bypass it by quitting the most-CPU-heavy wine-preloader process in Activity Monitor and it'll miraculously work (at least with the BR client which this often pops up for). But there is no high-CPU-using process to cancel with the live client. It sounds like your game loaded fine at that stage and mine does not once I get to the components screen. Any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I do have DX9 listed in my UserPreferences.ini already, and client type is set to be the 64 bit. Originally Posted by Tralfazz

Well somehow it got through the components screen and now I am at the login page. Fingers crossed...
Edit: I have a new error message after I typed in my credentials. It asked me to assign the 64 bit client executable so I clicked on lotroclient64.exe, then had this window pop up. Good grief. Trying with the 32 bit and seeing if that works.

That indicates you are attempting to launch the 64-bit client in an environment which lacks support for that application. The only reason that is likely to occur is if the game client is attempting to launch using the version of WINE included with SSG's "Mac Download" package, WINE 4, rather than WINE 7. The 32-bit client should work in the WINE 4 environment, but the 64-bit client as it is currently built by SSG cannot. See this old thread for another example of this occurring: Originally Posted by fmac81

You should be able to get the game to launch using the 64-bit client in the WINE 7 environment by doing the following, ASSUMING YOU HAVE WINE 7 INSTALLED:
1- Restart your Mac.
2- Edit your UserPreferences.ini file so that...
GameClientType=3
3- Open two Finder windows.
4- In the first window, navigate to...
~/Library/Application Support/com.standingstonegames.lotro/common/wineprefix/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/StandingStoneGames/The Lord of the Rings Online
...and in that The Lord of the Rings Online folder, find the LotroLauncher.exe file.
5- In the second window, navigate to...
/Applications
...and in your Applications folder, find the Wine Stable or Wine Devel application. (You should have only one of those two, depending on which version of WINE 7 you installed.)
6- Drag the LotroLauncher.exe file on top of the Wine Stable/Wine Devel application. Be careful to not move the LotroLauncher.exe file into the /Applications folder, you just want to drop it on top of the Wine Stable/Wine Devel application so that application will be the one creating the environment for LotroLauncher.exe to launch.
7- You might be asked to grant some permissions. Do so if asked. Sometimes you need to grant the permissions and then try to start up LOTRO again – do so by following Step 6 if needed.
edited to add:
Please open your Terminal application and enter this command:
And tell me the output of that command in your next message.Code:wine --version
