I just wanted to say it's working superbly. I've retrained myself to use 2 fingers to click to get the right click action. I can open multiple characters without closing the client, I can tab in and out of various characters. Overall 3 thumbs up!
The only issue I have now and it's a first world issue is I can't station spin! I find myself inadvertently trying to spin my ship at random times. If anyone had same issue and figured it out I'd appreciate.

If you have followed the instructions to disable Station Environment, then the background pic of your ship in the station is a static image. There is no spinning anymore. |

I might have missed it but can anyone tell me how to run the test server using Wine? |

I read this with interest as I have had the same problems on iMac - laggy response and over heating so Bootcamped Windows and tested the Windows version which ran much nicer. Frame rate was similar but the graphics were better and no lag at all - better bloom effects and dynamic lighting.
Then installed wine and ran it on Mac OSX to get Windows performance and better graphics which is awesome, no problems at all.
Really hard to believe that with the popularity of Macs and in 2014, we have to either dual boot OS or port ourselves on a paid game. I hope CCP are taking note and will also take some action, not good for end users to have to do this.
Kudos for this thread! |

The only problem i'm having is with smoothmouse. It's a must-have for me, since i can't stand the osx mouse acceleration. When smoothmouse is on, i get a "jittery" effect when clicking and dragging in space to rotate my view. The effect goes away when i turn smooth mouse off. I'm talking about this one ... http://smoothmouse.com/
I setup wine and eve using the homebrew method and so far am very pleased it actually works.
I still have to play for a while, to make sure it doesn't freeze or anything. I definitely had issues with the captains quarters thing, so i turned it off just long enough so i can see my hanger. Spinning in a hanger is fine though, no crashes.

Just an update...
There must have been a patch not too long ago that seems to have fixed the random freezing with the normal eve OSX client.
Soon after, there was another amazing patch that allows me to play in windowed mode in resolutions that "fill" my entire screen. This, i REALLY wanted and was happy to get.
I'm really happy with the latest cider/OSX client. No freezing, great resolutions.
I play with minimal settings, except for maximum textures, if that helps. I won't be using the WINE version anymore. I still wasn't able to find out how to make it play nicely with smooth mouse, which was a killer for me. |

Checking in, and I am having the same experience as Ralph Izzi. CCP have done a spectacular job making the official Mac client work great. I've had one or two random freezes, but I'd say no more than what a Windows user might experience on his/her own native client. I've also been able to crank up the graphics quality significantly and still get great performance even in fleet work. I've switched over to using the standard client 100% of the time since Kronos was released.
Great job, CCP. It makes me happy to know that we Mac folk are not being left out in the cold. At least, not until someone awoxes me in game. |

I'm a new player, came into the fold with the recent Steam midweek madness. Found a great starter corp within the first couple of days and have thoroughly enjoyed my experience between crashes. I'm hoping against hope that this will allow me to continue playing.
I have very little Terminal experience, but standard OSX client has made the game virtually unplayable. I've played around enough with command lines to know how to be dangerous and follow directions.
So we're going to give this a go. Wish me luck! |

Thanks for the guide.
I switched to wine after my mac-client once again crashed and lost all the settings.
It runs really good now, haven't had a crash since and my CPU temperature is about 10-¦C lower.
bonus: I don't lose those pixels at the bottom of the screen anymore.
so yeah, I'm much happier with the windows-client running via wine now! |

Can confirm, running EVE under wine 1.6 installed via Homebrew package manager. And it seems to run a great deal smoother and a lot more stable than the cider client.
Pros:
- Seems to not crash every five minutes
- Seems to run smoother
- Access to fixed window mode, which is not present in the cider client.
Cons:
- Has to be launched via shell by navigating to the launcher or exe file each time unless something like a sym link is made.
- A few graphical glitches, mainly the gate-system transition tunnel does not play properly and makes your camera shake until you enter system, this is identical to my experience on Linux Mint using WINE 1.6 and 1.7 so it's not OS X specific.
- Haven't tried but captains quarters probably doesn't work, although it never really ran great under Cider anyway.
System: OS X 10.9.4 Intel core i7 3770 16GB RAM Geforce GTX 670 2048MB
Overall I'll be sticking with the WINE client I think, only thing that I ran into when installing EVE via Wine is that 7zip support is requires to extract the payloads when using the offline installer, so you'll need to install a method of extracting them otherwise the install button will be greyed out, or was for me at least.

For a few months I have been enjoying, what I can say a flawless game. WINE solved all of my problems I had and delivered stunning graphics and performance. But one thing keeps bothering me.
Each time I want to launch EVE i have to copy / paste and execute this line wine ~/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/CCP/EVE/eve.exe in the terminal. I am not a programmer and my experience with Mac's is limited at best but I wonder - is there a way to make an Icon or launcher programme to launch EVE with one click? iMac, 27-inch, Late 2013;-áProcessor 3,5 GHz Intel Core i7;-áMemory 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3 Graphics-á NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M 4096 MB |

Try using Apple's 'Automator' tool to do this for you.
Hit Shift-Command-A to bring up Applications in Finder and double-click on Automator. Choose "Application" for your document type. Scroll down a ways in the 2nd pane on the left until you find "Run Shell Script", clicky it. Enter the syntax you use above for running EVE via terminal like you do. Click on the "Run" button at top right to test it out. You may get an error like "can't find wine". If so, in your terminal do a 'which wine' and it will show you the full path to wine. Add the full path to your script. Run again, debug again if necessary, etc.. Save it in automator, it will create an icon in your Documents folder. Slap that icon down somewhere so you can spam it with mouse mashing.
Have fun. |

Open Terminal. cd Desktop vi launcheve press "i", copy/paste below text, replacing your paths:
#!/bin/bash wine /Path/To/Your/Wine/Directory/drive_c/Program\ Files/CCP/EVE/eve.exe $*
press ESC ctl ZZ chmod 777 launcheve
double click the launcheve link on your desktop, each time launches a new instance. You can multi box as many as your system can handle.

Workaround is to uncheck "Displays have separate Spaces" in Mission Control preference pane. Yes, this breaks some new features with the windows, but allows you to do this. Else, don't use xquartz and set wine to use the default mac driver.

wine has been working great for months now. I've been able to run two clients easily. With the update today i've had a lot of freezing most often when I was in windowed mode. Anyone else having problems. |

Thanks for the tip, I used Wineskin for it, it indeed runs smoother with it, less cpu...
I had some weird freezing after the last updates, it's fixed with wineskin right now, and for multi boxing, eve launcher works fine. |

I'm curious - since I already have BootCamp set up on my iMac, would it make more sense to just install the Windows client natively on there, rather than go the Wine route? My assumption is that BootCamp is likely to be less buggy and better driver support... |

Guys, I need help!
Recently I installed EVE on my Mac on Vanilla WINE, as described by Norden Kor in this thread: https://forums.eveonline.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=4249217#post4249217
It worked, with one exception: the launcher doesnGÇÿt launch. But until now the client launched nevertheless. I had to use the old login method, from the legacy login screen (which is still present). With Rhea this is over, because the client tells me, that IGÇÿve got a different version than the server (which is correct).
Any idea how I can make the launcher work?
I get the following exception:
OSError: Failed to retrieve GetLongPathNameW from "Z:\Users\tahnil\.wine\drive_c\Program Files\CCP\EVE"
Maybe some problem with filesystem paths? |

Fyi: I solved the issue by running the repair.exe in WINE. Now the client is up to date again. Launcher still doesnGÇÿt work for me, but at least I can login again via the depracated / legacy login screen. |
