Black Screen using Soldat 1.7 via Wine/Macbook

[dezerteuR]

Hey all,

I'm desperately looking for a solution for the following problem:

I installed soldat via Wine on my macbook pro (it fulfills all requirements, no worries). Everything went well, until the moment I wanted to start the game:

First of all, the soldat advertisement opened. After clicking on "OK", the normal Soldat window opened with the options to add Profiles, quit the game, etc... But like half a second later, the Wine/Soldat window went blackscreen, and didn't change ever since until I forced the  closure of the window/program.

I'm a complete Computer and Technology noob, which means, if anybody has got a solution which I'm hoping for, I need to get explained everything into detail, if possible.

Please help me, I'd love to get back to Soldat and participate in SCTFL

This happens to me too on my macbook air. I think it's a bug with wine on osx as 1.7 works fine under linux wine.

You could consider a full screen linux or windows VM and run 1.7 under that. I used to do that with older versions of soldat.

I think aveh used to play Soldat fine on a windows VM through Parallels. Though don't think parallels is free, probably jrgp or shoozza can suggest some software for this?

Well some days ago, I had Wine and Soldat installed through WineBottler, which worked pretty fine. The only Problem was that I had to switch from the Soldat window to any other Fullscreen Window via three finger gesture to see actions I've taken in the menu section displayed. Plus I couldn't change keys for e.g. Grenades.

But once I was in game, I could play and everything worked well!

Regarding the fact that Keychanging didnt work, I deinstalled everything and reinstalled all, but this time via Homebrew. The result: look @my post above

I hope this information was a but helpful lol

Anyways, I'm not really willing to buy Parallels, so it'd be nice if somebody could find a simple Trick/Solution behind my problem

Thanks

You can change them manually from the soldat.ini file if you didn't know. About Mac + Soldat: https://www.playonmac.com/en/download.html you can mange your wine version in this tools config and it worked great for me on Linux. You might try your luck changing to some older / newer wine version with that tool.
If that however does not work, try Paralleles.
