    Hey there,

    I am setting up my old macbook for my nephew to play UO on. I have successfully downloaded and installed both Razor and UO, but when I run razor via wine stable, nothing happens. It gets stuck at the overlay of the Razor emblem and says "Don't Forget to Donate!" - and then nothing happens.

    I think I need to either set the Client and UO Data Directory myself (which I have already tried and failed) or I need to run as admin?

    Please help!

    Thank you

    Ill try...

    1) First I installed Wine stable and the supplemental tricks using these two guides:
    http://uorforum.com/threads/installing-uo-r-and-razor-on-mac-os-x.1973/
    https://forum.uo.com/discussion/256/ultima-online-on-macbook

    2) Then I downloaded the UO-R install and Razor install.
    I installed them both by using their designated wine stable .exe files in the folder where Wine files are stored:
    (~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Electronic Arts/Ultima Online Classic)

    3) I go to use Razor (via .exe file) and when I click "OK" to log in, I get this:

    ok my image URL doesn't work here but, It only relaunches Razor and it sits at the Razor Overlay that says "dont forget to donate" like it would when I initially start up razor.

    ** It does not activate Ultima **

    There is no error message, it is as I described. When I "OK" the razor startup window, it just reopens Razor apparently.

    I would use that client, But i have to use Razor to play this game. How do I set that up from here?

    I had this working years ago on this computer, I just wiped it to restart clean or my nephew. I may just look back at my old threads

    Hmmm... No flicker and no change. It is indefinite Razor startup screen.

    I think Razor or Wine does not know where to find the Ultima file to launch...

    Is there anyway to change the directory?

    ** When I use The command in terminal "wine razor.exe" It does not know here to find it either. I have to manually go in finder and double click the Razor Icon to be able to use it. **

    Alternatively I can try update razor to see if that works then.

    Labeler,

    Thank you for your immediate support!

    I downloaded UOSteam and everything works now. I am content with that (even as an ancient Razor user).

    See you in Sosaria!

    Best,
