“The game offers hours of thrilling detective work.

the version of direct x in MHM will cause the game to be incompatible running with wineskin, but once it’s gone it’s not a problem anymore.“This is an entry in the series that long-time fans will love… the game delivers strong in so many ways that you will look over any of the weak puzzles and enjoy another outing with Nancy, the Hardys, and the usual collection of goofy and humorous characters (even a recurring character from a previous mystery!), accompanied by dialogue that’s more crisp and witty than it has been in a while.” You can get MHM to work with wineskin! use engine 1.3.18 and when you copy the game files into a new folder, trash the direct x folder.

exe files to open the program (which happens, it’s alright) and need to make more than one wrapper (and therefore copies of the folders), it’s quicker to right-click on your folder and hit “duplicate” than it is to copy/paste the files from the CD all over again into a new folder. (this problem might transfer over to games before or after WAC, i’m not sure since i haven’t tried installing a lot of the mid games)Īlso as a tip: if you’re having problems with selecting the wrong. i haven’t figured out a workaround for this yet. WAC doesn’t seem to work for me with wineskin, and it might be an issue with being unable to deselect installing Direct X in installation. if this happens, just click ‘okay’ and then try opening it again, it’ll work if you do run into this glitch, hopefully it’s no big deal (just kind of a bother) and you can still save and play games as normalĪlso, since updating to el capitan, wineskin often tells me the wrapper i’ve created can’t be opened.

i haven’t figured out why it does this or how to fix it, but i do know that with the game i can’t remember, once i “reinstalled” the game, i was still able to access my old saved games.

There seems to be an issue with FIN (and i think HAU or maybe VEN? i can’t remember which one tbh) where every time you open the game wrapper you’re prompted to install it again. (which is fine, cause it’s really easy to do) I haven’t done another wrapper for another game, but i’m pretty sure you have to make a wrapper for each separate game.

but that’s probably because the original games never had a windowed mode to begin with. The game will install in about 10-15 seconds, then you can play the game!įor me, installing ghost dogs of moon lake on Lion 10.7.5, wrapper 1.3.18 worked great for me–no screen flicker and no mouse lag! the only downside is even with advanced settings, i can’t force the program into windowed mode. this option, however, should be preselected (wineskin comes with Direct X already, i think) this will prompt the installation process. the program has moved the folder into the wrapper (if you had your copied files on your desktop, you’ll notice they’ll be missing) Then… nothing will seem to happen! don’t worry. Select “install software” and choose “move a folder inside”.

When it’s done creating the wrapper, click “show wrapper in finder”Ī new finder window will open with your wineskin wrapper waiting. There may be some accessory things it needs to install. name it whatever you want (likewise i’ve been naming the wrappers after the games they contain) Once you have your copied file contents and an engine installed (showing under "installed engines”), click “create new blank wrapper” with the engine highlighted. open the file, highlight and copy all of the file contents, then paste them into a new folder labelled whatever you want (i’ve been using the game acronyms, so my trials were all DOG, DOG2, DOG3 etc) if you have screen flicker issues or mouse lag, try 1.7.14NoFlicker for screen flicker issues, or 1.3.18 for mouse lag (though 1.3.18 solved both flicker + mouse lag issues for me) pick the latest one and try that out using the following steps. There are a lot of them and they can be overwhelming. you’ll need to install an engine (by cicking on the little “+” sign which will be to the left of “New Engine(s) available!”)
