    I had a working version of Maple Legends on the previous version of MacOS, but this new beta version has not be loading up anything.

    It will appear on my dock as if it is running, but no window appears for the game.

    Any ideas?

    That's the risk of running an unreleased beta.

    Do you get any errors at all? Wineskin may not be updated for that version of mac OS.

    You are right, it might just not be supported.

    No, not getting any visible errors at all.
    Just didn't know if anyone in the community has fixed the problem yet.

    It might be best just to wait until the update comes out publicly...

    It's probably not the GMs that can fix it. Wineskin has to be updated, probably. Or High Sierra has bugs.

    I'm not entirely sure. The last time I tried MapleLegends on my Mac was back in July after downloading from here: https://forum.maplelegends.com/index.php?threads/updated-mac-osx-maple-legends-pkg-d-l.12988/

    Since then I've been just using Linux to play. Has there been anyone who has gotten MapleLegends up on MacOS High Sierra? If so, I'd love to know how they did it. Anytime I open it on my Mac, it shows that it is running on my tray, but never comes up with any windows or messages.

    This happens to me too, i noticed that sometimes after quitting the client the application does not turn itself off.
    All i do is force quit the application using command+alt+esc, then when I restart it the client will appear again. I think its a bug thats just slightly inconvenient, but since there's a thread about this now maybe the staff can try looking into it :D

    but i'm using the one from the maplelegends website tho i don't think its a beta version

    I'm assuming you're using the beta version if so what version are you using?

    It used to do that to me too, but only after playing. I can’t even play on MacOS nowadays because of it.

    I found a hotfix for this; the game isn't as smooth as in Sierra but it'll play.

    Try this:
    1. Right click on the MapleLegends client
    2. Show Package contents
    3. Double click on WineSkin
    4. Set screen options

    5. Ensure that the options are selected as such:
    - Override settings: rootless (windowed)
    - Virtual Desktop at: current resolution
    - Installer options: force normal windows
    - Override wine control of screen settings: override
    - Extra gamma correction: none
    - Other options: only check "decorate windows"

    6. Press done and quit WineSkin

    Hope this works for you!

    Thank you! It worked for me as well!
    I do some weird screen glitches though. As if static is going across my screen.
    Other than that, it appears to be working perfectly fine.
    Thank you for the help!

    I recently updated to High Sierra and I managed to open the game using your settings above but the static is really quite bad. Are there any proper solutions to this problem recently?

    Fortunately I never ran into any problems on High Sierra. Can you provide a screenshot of the problem?

    I have the same issue for awhile but i thought it only affected me.
    I am not on High Sierra though!
    Jaina's solution is what i have been doing and it worked for me.

    Somehow running it in window mode, while small; seems to solve the static issues (at least for my computer). But apart from ML, High Sierra is also interfering with some of the other software that I use such as Excel, so I do hope that Apple does know about such compatibility issues.
