Thank you sir, you just made my day!

I have expertise with Mac OS X, so if you need anything just let me know!

You asked for it :)

here is a really hard one :D
How to speed up or modify OSX flawed mmap() process when using MMAP_PRIVATE to not run COW immediately but only when needed - this is causing slow load speeds and stuttering on most of wine emulated games.


But I think you meant different type of expertise :)
I was having trouble with the client crashing when it was switched from Fullscreen to Windowed as well.

I don't know much about this sort of thing, but I did go into the contents and tweaked the screen options in Wineskin that allowed me to switch back to Windowed without it crashing.

Im using V3.6

All I did was right click "Path of Exile" and go to Show Package Contents
Open Wineskin and click Set Screen Options

I then changed these settings:

Override Wine control of screen settings: Override
Override Settings: Fullscreen, Then set the resolution of your monitor in the dropdown box
Installer Options: Use These Settings

I closed that out and relaunched. The game came up still in Fullscreen, but I was able to switch to Windowed without a crash. Afterwards, I went back and switched the settings back to their default.

I hope that helps anyone having trouble with that issue.

Would anybody have an idea about my problem regarding the launcher? I'm stuck at checking resources for more than an hour or so.

Thanks in advance.

PS: I have downloaded 3.1, 3.6 and another port, but nothing seems to work.

EDIT: It seems to be downloading now. I hope it works.


The check resource can take a really long time on some configurations (few hours)


Thanks... but theres a new problem... after 4 gb of download in the launcher, it suddenly resets back to 0 and started download again... its like.... GRRRAAAHHH!!!

any idea?

Thanks again in advance.

The launcher is possibly bugged, it can show zero progress even if you have already downloaded a considerable part of the files.

This can be frustrating, but have patience :)

This is still beta after all.

yes I will! I'm uber excited to play this but fate isn't very supportive though. haha. Really wish it would cooperate soon.

Thanks for answering.
My buddy is having issues starting the game. Here's a couple of images he sent me. When he starts up the game, this box pops up:

Then when he gets to the login screen, it looks like this:

Any ideas...?

1st post - FAQ - Game opens in too small window | Game does not want to enter fullscreen
Having same issue tried command enter. as well as other idea to get window to open still nothing works.

when i first loaded it up it was a little bigger but everything was not matching up with the cursor so then i rebooted and got this tiny window like the guy above me
