I went over this thing for hours upon hours trying to get it to work and finally I went into tools>winetricks>settings>forcemono+winver=, it got me past the game version check failed and is now updating.
Holy snap it's installing lol lets see how long this will take and if the rest works
Just noticed this thread... Moving to FFXIV Tech where it should be.
Help! It won't update AT ALL. I get to the file check and it says "11014 version check failed -- 2:20447"
I've tried EVERYTHING and even tried that "forcemono+winver=" trick and it STILL gives me this issue. This really sucks... I've spent HOURS trying to get this to work.
Ps i wasan't able to have sound until today so i tried updating the engine to WS8wine1.4-rc3 and when i went into the properties for the sound all work and so it does inside the game.
But still no controller
ah well
-sigh- Still having problems. I even tried the above suggestion.
Tried to install the latest version of wineskin + engine?
Thanks for the guide. It wasn't working for me until I upgraded the Wineskin Winery engine to WS8wine1.4-rc6. I'm @ the login screen now but haven't got an account yet.
Anyway, I made an icon for FFXIV to replace the ugly Wineskin one.

So the install seems to have gone fine, and it downloads all 14 updates, but when it goes to apply them it just hangs and percentages never go up. Someone noted this previously but didn't mention how they fixed it. Here's what the log shows when I do a Test Run:

Any ideas? I've tried updating to IE8, fixme-all in the debug, and installing msxml3.
Also, there's no option for "use Windows Font." Not sure if that is a legacy setting or what.
Okay, this is odd. I set it to WinXP, and that failed immediately. Set it to 2k, that failed immediately. Set it back to Win7, and now it's applying the updates. WTF, but at least it's working, so the step might be to re-apply the win7 setting in Winetricks for the "not applying downloaded updates" issue. Hopefully the rest works
Yet another oddity. Once the updates were finished installing, the config gave me the option of Use Windows Font.
Login screen is still in Japanese and it won't allow me to login. One effing problem after another.
When I try to login, it goes to a white screen then refreshes (with a bunch of ??? because I'm assuming it can't translate the characters) back to the login screen. Won't accept my credentials or just generally fails.
Okay... figured THAT out... stupid login security.
I can get past the login now, but when ffxivgame.exe loads it goes to a black screen for about a second then says "ffxivgame.exe has encountered a serious issue and needs to close." I've tried various changes to graphic settings but can't seem to get past this point. I'm wary about upgrading dx, still have the dx9 installed from the initial steps. Logs are below:

wine: Unhandled division by zero at address 0xca5d9e (thread 002d), starting debugger...
Updated to the most current skin/engine. Still getting "Unhandled Exception: divide by zero in 32-bit code." Wine log still shows those unexpected weekday/date format errors.
Giving up. Guessing my specs aren't good enough to run the game client. Good luck all.
I have done and can run on Mac OSX Lion now but the problem is the game is pretty slow, i'm not sure that the game detect my VGA Card or not , can I check ?
I'm on MBP17 2011
I'm trying to get this to work and i've completed all the steps. Problem is that i can't get past the login page. Someone has mentioned that i need internet explorer to play this. Can anyone tell me how i would go about getting that? Once downloaded would it automatically launch through IE?
The login window is essentially IE running inside an application frame. Messy and poorly done, but there you go. As for how to download it properly for your purposes, I'm not sure. Have you tried microsoft.com?
I just got a new imac, and admittedly, I don't know much about it, but when I found that there was potential to play ffxiv on it, I was rather happy. Well, I will be come 2.0 time anyway, assuming I can get this to work. That brings me to the point. I cannot get this to work, and I'm not sure why... I downloaded the latest version of wine etc, and followed the instructions as closely as I could, accounting for changes in version, and the game installs fine, but when I reopen the wrapper to do the patches, the patch screen displays, and half a second later, the program hangs and gives an error. I'm not sure if this has something to do with the fact that I'm installing from the cd, rather than the download or what, but if I could get this to run, I'd be a very happy person. Please help ; ;
