Has anyone got this to work on Linux/OSX with WINE?

And if so, what did you have to do to get it to work? What config did you have?

Wait, nevermind, I got it working. You need:

This DLL: http://www.dll-files.com/dllindex/dll-files.shtml?x3daudio1_7
And you need to do winetricks d3dx9_36.

It's REALLY slow though.

Edit: some people are kind of confused so I'll lay out exactly what you need to do in the terminal:

Code:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.github.com/mxcl/homebrew/go)"
brew install wine **NOTE: this will take for-fucking-ever, im talking 30minutes to 2 hours**
brew install winetricks
mv ~/Downloads/X3DAudio1_7.dll ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/ **NOTE: the first part kind of depends where the DLL was downloaded**
winetricks d3dx9_36

And if it ever asks you for a password just type your password to your user account (you need to be admin)

 

it doesn't work for me. it says : unable to load game library: /BeamNGSandbox.x86.dll. did you or anybody have the same problem?

 

I have been trying to get this to work for a while now. I can't figure out how to get DirectX to install correctly (As it needs the newest DirectX)

 

DX has always been an issue for Wine, unfortunately.
I ended up having to bootcamp windows on my mac

 

i gave up on wine as we'll, decided to buy Parallels and install Windows that way. Runs like crap, unfortuatly. 0 FPS

 

Yeah running in VM is never great with anything that's graphics intensive
You're really going to have to buckle down and boot into that dreaded Windows OS ;P

It's such a chore, but the game is pretty fun, I'll probably be buying it

 

I've tried doing BootCamp, but partitioning the drive is such a pain, it never seems to work... And it doesn't support XP, and there is no way in heck I'm paying for 7. I'll just have to face the fact that I'm not able to played this game for now, and hope they release a unix-friendly version. (I'm glad I found another Mac user to talk to, I thought I was the only one!)

 

hehe yeah there's some of us out there, and there will only be more as the years go on

I'm running w7 on my imac, and am successfully running XP on my macbook for work related programs. Both running OSX 10.8
I believe I just selected to install windows 7 on the bootcamp screen, and all was fine. I may have made XP into a dmg before. All bootcamp does is creates an install USB and downloads needed drivers to it so that it's seamless when you go to install. You may need to look for drivers, I'm not sure if they auto installed or not, it's been a while.

Partitioning is very easy, I gave myself 60GB for bootcamp, once partitioned it restarts and you are able to install windows normally, just be sure to select the partition labeled "bootcamp". You may need to re-format the partition through the installer, I did. This will remove the bootcamp name, but everything will be fine.

One note, be sure all other external hard drives and memsticks (time machine drives perhaps) are removed before you partition and run the install. This leads to problems with not being able to install. After install is complete you can plug it all back in.

Also, at start up hold option to select what you'd like to boot into


I pretty much did this for this game because I like to smash things up but I guess now I can also run gta and some other games that I've "left behind" since moving to OSX.

One plus, my work and play will remain separate this way, haha

 

Yeah, I got that same error. I fixed it by putting the DLL I linked in the OP in ~/.wine/drive_c/windows/system32/

I only had to do that, and I had to run that command

Code:

winetricks d3dx9_36

in terminal to get it to work. It installs the correct Direct X dependencies for you.

Full disclosure: I'm running OSX 10.8.4 and I used Homebrew to install WINE 1.6 and winetricks. Homebrew compiled WINE using clang, not GCC.

 

Awesome you got it working!
Do you think it's slow because of wine or because of your computer?
I've got the 2012 middle of the road imac and it runs fine (booting into windows)

 

It's definitely WINE.

 

I did everything OP suggested, from the ruby to winetricks and finally the install of the DX dependencies.

I attempt to run BeamNG.Drive.x86.exe with Wine (which isn't an emulator) 1.6.2 and...nothing happens. The cursor shows the loading symbol for 15sec and then nothing.
