Some users have been encountering issues with launching EVE after the recent update to Mac OS X. The reason for the issue is the following error. 0036:err:d3d:wined3d\_adapter\_init\_gl\_caps Card 1002:6760 not found in driver DB. I have a workaround for this issue: - Start the launcher. - Click on EVE Online in the apple menu at the top of the screen and select Preferences. - Under wine options make sure “User Dev Version” is not ticked - Dev Branch should be ccp-master - Wine version should already be set to the the latest, change to wine-1.9.17-143-g91037ca-ccp-72 - Close the launcher and the client if either is running. - In finder, click Go to Folder and copy paste the following ~/Library/Application Support/EVE Online/p\_drive/Local Settings/Application Data/CCP/EVE/SharedCache - You should see a folder named wine – move that folder to trash Start the launcher again and run the game and the client should start if the error above is the error you are encountering. ---

This seems to have worked for me. Thanks for this. So the issue isn’t so much Eve as Wine? ---

You are welcome and yes the issue appears to be wine related. ---
