colin Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Ok. I bought the same card BorisBadenov used, the MSI RX1600PRO-TD256E 256MB PCI-e. The game starts up and I can login to the world but I can't see my character. It seems to be that I can't see at least half of the models in game, I can see the terrain but not other characters or monsters. I was wondering if anyone else has encountered such a problem or knows of a fix? I'm using 10.4.5 kexts as the 10.4.6 kexts gave me graphical tearing and artifacts. WoW version 1.11.2 Hoping for some good news, Colin P.S. Thanks in advance for any responses! UT2004 works. AOE2 works. UT works. blah. why not WoW?! :-P Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/22151-world-of-warcraft-doesnt-work-with-an-ati-x1600pro/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwprod12 Posted July 17, 2006 Share Posted July 17, 2006 Dunno. Did you update to universal binary? Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/22151-world-of-warcraft-doesnt-work-with-an-ati-x1600pro/#findComment-146403 Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted July 18, 2006 Author Share Posted July 18, 2006 Yeah I sure did. Does it work for you? if so, on what card, specifically please, I know its a x1600? Are you using 10.4.6 ATI kexts and just the ATINDRV.kext from 10.4.5?

slave-zeo Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 WoW works fine for me on my hackintosh. Not as fast as on my wife's iMac or on the same machine under windows, though. My specs are. Asus mobo with 915 chipset 16x pci-e slot running @ 4x speed (sucks!) P4 HT 3.2 GHz @ 800 bus w/ 2mb cache Powercolor X1600Pro 256mb using 10.4.5 kexts, the newer package messes stuff up 2GB DDR Ram About 700GB of sata disk space Onboard lan and audio work fine.

cyclonefr Posted July 18, 2006 Share Posted July 18, 2006 u have to use ATINDRV from 10.4.5 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/22151-world-of-warcraft-doesnt-work-with-an-ati-x1600pro/#findComment-146862 Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted July 19, 2006 Author Share Posted July 19, 2006 Dang it! I'm using the 10.4.5 kexts under 10.4.6. Maybe I messed up the kexts somehow? Is there a package I should dl? I mean... other games work perfectly. WoW launches and I login but I can't see any players or monsters. Wtf. so odd. Is it _just_ the ATINDRV kext from 10.4.5 or all the other ATIRadeonX1000 kexts from 10.4.5 too Basically my question is: are you all using 10.4.6 kexts with the exception of ATINDRV? Anyone else have any ideas? What is this Neophus package I hear of? Thanks for your input!

I guess I'll play in winblows unless anyone else has any ideas?

cyclonefr Posted July 19, 2006 Share Posted July 19, 2006 u must install Neophus package and it will work enjoy installers.dl.am Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/22151-world-of-warcraft-doesnt-work-with-an-ati-x1600pro/#findComment-147161 Share on other sites More sharing options...
colin Posted July 22, 2006 Author Share Posted July 22, 2006 I tried the neophus package and still no go. my CPU is an AMD64 3700+ San Diego clocked at 2.66ghz it is so bizarre that all these other games work, just not WoW. I'll try Quake 4 native and see what happens with that. P.S. The neophus package did speed up my boot-time, great work guys!

zenarcade Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 I'm having a similar problem as you Colin, just with other games (Civilization 4 and CC Generals). I'm using Neo's installer and am using a Gigbyte X1600PRO 256MB card. I do hope to fix this issue soon! Good thing I'm not the only one.

xlek Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 I'm having the exact same issue - missing textures in WoW, etc. Card is an ASUS EAX1600PRO. Used Neo's installer. Any ideas? How did others solve this issue?
