Hello, it's me again after some years. I've been playing successfully on Windows machine for a while now, but every now and then I'm on a mac and would be fun to be able to play on it as well. With latest CrossOvers by Codeweavers (19+), everything runs smoothly except CnCnet... I have installed .NET 4, Xna Framework etc and I always get this message when launching: Screenshot attached. So close, yet so far... Any tips?

So was tired to start up Windows just for this, and tried again. Reinstalled clean from original cds, used ddwrapper and tweaks and latest Wineskin Winery wrapper, so got the game work brilliantly via XWIS, since it doesn't need any 3rd party application. Game works 100% and CnCnet Client starts fine, but as soon as the update notification pops up, clientxna.exe has encountered an error and crashes... I have spent weeks trying to find out. So for now, settling for XWIS. If you have any tips to play via CnCnet, let me know, I'm here.

I kinda gave up... after trying for a week, on Google page 10, I decided to install Windows 7 on old PC and everything works smoothly now.

I have CrossOver and VMWare since I work on tech. CrossOver didn't work for me, actually worse than WineSkin or virtualbox, too many problems for some reason. Just installed everything again on VMWare and it looks promising! Everything seems to work on their own, but with CNCOnline I get "CNCMaps has stopped working" between every other second, it doesn't close the client though, but most of the Skirmish maps are showing blank. Also, when starting the game, seeing only black, mouse and hearing sounds. Tried ddwrapper and solutions of other posts with no luck so far. Logs don't show anything alarming. Man, it's a struggle to get this to work if you don't have Windows :/

Hello. I'm trying to play Yuri's Revenge online on a Mac. I've managed to get it working with Wineskin + configurations, but CnCNet is not working. I have installed all the dependencies, winetricks: dotnet35 vcrun2008 dotnet20sp2 xna40, have wsock32 and ddraw in place etc. Currently this shows up in the logs whenever I'm trying to start CnCNetYRLauncher.exe: fixme:exec:SHELL_execute flags ignored: 0x00000100 Unhandled Exception: System.BadImageFormatException: Invalid method header local vars signature token 0x 8c5f66 File name: 'DTAClient' My info: Engine Used: WS9Wine2.12 Hardware: Hardware Overview: Model Name: MacBook Pro Model Identifier: MacBookPro11,1 Processor Name: Intel Core i5 Processor Speed: 2,4 GHz Number of Processors: 1 Total Number of Cores: 2 L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB L3 Cache: 3 MB Memory: 16 GB Boot ROM Version: MBP111.0138.B25 SMC Version (system): 2.16f68 Graphics/Displays: Intel Iris: Chipset Model: Intel Iris Type: GPU Bus: Built-In VRAM (Dynamic, Max): 1536 MB Vendor: Intel (0x8086) Device ID: 0x0a2e Revision ID: 0x0009 Metal: Supported Displays: B246HL: Resolution: 1920 x 1080 @ 60 Hz Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888) Display Serial Number: LYDEE0108510 Mirror: Off Online: Yes Rotation: Supported Automatically Adjust Brightness: No Connection Type: DisplayPort DELL U2414H: Resolution: 1920 x 1080 @ 60 Hz Pixel Depth: 32-Bit Color (ARGB8888) Display Serial Number: 9TG463CS3FRL Main Display: Yes Mirror: Off Online: Yes Rotation: Supported Automatically Adjust Brightness: No Connection Type: DisplayPort Any idea? Tried also with Virtualbox VM, Windows 7 64 bit, but didn't get past "Unable to set video mode" error no matter what I did. Yes, went through ini settings, resolutions and such. The funny part is, CnCnet works on Virtual Machine but gameplay does not and gameplay works on my Mac (Wine) but CnCnet does not. Any tips how to get to play online on a Mac? I appreciate it in advance!
