I encountered a weird thing in the scope of this subject today, using MacOS Sierra:

MoI worked fine so far since my Sierra upgrade, but this morning when I started MoI, a Wine dialog appeared, presenting a number of installation options, as if I had just installed Wine and now needed to manually install MoI from the Wine UI.

I never saw the Wine dialog before, I just knew in the back of my head that Wine is used as a container to run MoI on the Mac.

What I did (as I don't know anything about Wine) is:

1: copied my custom commands from the Commands folder via Show Package Contents,
2: deinstalled MoI,
3: downloaded it again from the site,
4: reinstalled it,
5: copied back my custom commands.

Everything works fine again now. As I had not removed the license(s) or the Moi.ini file, that wasn't necessary to copy back.

Hi Metin, is it possible that you had the Alt key held down when you launched MoI? That's one thing that will cause Wineskin to open up Wineskin controls rather than actually launching the program as normal.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your reply.

I didn't have the Alt key pressed, but I do have a new Wacom tablet with side key assignments that include Alt. Sometimes the Wacom drivers are a bit buggy, messing up activation of the keys and requiring a restart. So that may very well have been the culprit. I didn't know that Alt-clicking the MoI icon results in the Wine skin. Now that I know this, I'll check it if it happens again.

Thanks,

Metin
