Mac: Can't launch launcher

[BenFreebandz]

I've downloaded Island Rum and the Issue 24 files, using BitTorrent to unzip the magnet link found on COHTitan, but when I try to run the application via Island Rum, my computer tries to process, then closes Island Rum and pretends like I didn't try to launch anything.

I'm on a 2015 Macbook Pro with a quad-core so I don't think it's an issue of processing.

You're missing a piece.  Download this first:

http://telstar.eekstudio.com/macclient-wineskin.zip

Then extract it, and use Reset Path to point to the extracted app.  Let it finish downloading all its stuff, and then launch it.

[BenFreebandz]

Downloading those files now, thanks for the help!

[BenFreebandz]

Hate to double post, but having another related issue. With the file downloaded I can get to a start up menu, it tells me to locate the Issue 24 files, but when I locate them, I can't click on the folder itself, only subfiles within those folders.

I tried typing in the location manually but I can't do that, either.

[Manga]

Click ONCE on the folder name, and then click Select at the bottom of the window.

[BenFreebandz]

I've tried single and double clicking. When single clicking I get "A filename cannot contain any of the following characters / : < > |"

[Manga]

I haven't seen that one before.  What's the name of the folder the app is in?

[BenFreebandz]

"COH Beta Mac.app"

[Manga]

What's the name of the folder it's inside?

"COH Beta Mac.app"

[BenFreebandz]

I find it in the Z Drive under Applications.

[Manga]

Z Drive??  Macs don't have drive letters.  Are you sure you're using one?

Also, I just realized CoH Beta Mac.app is an old version.  You'll want to start by downloading the newer client from the link further up the thread.

[BenFreebandz]

I know, I think the launcher is trying to draw the files using Wine, which I also have installed. I'll try downloading the newer files.

I'm having the same issue! The paragon chat launcher wants to read the mac directory like a windows machine, so there are C: and Z: options.

Picking the folder extracted from the wineskin link doesn't seem to work to locate issue 24, neither does the CoH Beta Mac.app

Help pretty please!

[Manga]

I'm not sure which "drive" it would be - it's whichever one contains the Program Files folder (it's probably C) with "coh" within it, or the "coh" folder alone.

[rowanjon]

it has miraculously worked today,

thanks!

Have been trying to launch Paragon Chat for the past couple of hours; keep getting "Unable to establish control connection" alert, followed by "Failed to launch client!"  Is there a mess-up with the system right now, or is the problem on my end?  Have been playing PC for the past couple of months and haven't seen anything like this previously.

[Manga]

Some people have been reporting network connection issues today; I don't know exactly where the problem is, though.

My Client is not launching, it keeps getting an Error message that says

Error!

Couldn't write process memory: Message 0x%1 not found in file %2.

Then shows a "Ok" button.

The game was running fine yesterday (other then the usual lag and disconnecting), this error came out of no where. I'm really baffled here. How do I fix this?

[Manga]

Usually a reboot will fix weird errors like that.  Sometimes the Wine core that makes the whole thing run gets stuck and won't quit properly.

[sadangel89]

How do you reboot the Wine?
