issues on monterey laptop

[meteryam]

I have a MacBook Pro running Monterey 12.5 with these stats:

Processor: 2.6 GHz 6-Core Intel Core i7
Memory: 16 GB 2400 MHz DDR4
Graphics: Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB
USB mouse & Keyboard

I had some trouble getting this to work. The installer ran, but the game itself wouldn't respond to mouse clicks or my keyboard, and it launched in a tiny corner of the display.

Eventually I figured it out, and I wanted to share my steps. Here's how I did it.

• I created an exception for /Applications/SWTOR.app in my antivirus app.
• I ran this command to configure wine:

/Applications/SWTOR.app/Contents/Resources/wine/bin/winecfg

• When the "Wine configuration" window opened, under the Applications tab, I changed the "Windows Version" selection from "Windows 7" to "Windows 10".

• Under the Graphics tab, I enabled "Automatically capture the mouse in full-screen windows" and I increased the screen resolution slider to 144 dpi.

• Then I clicked the OK button.

• In the terminal, I noticed a lot of errors like this:

0094:err:plugplay:process_IOService_Device Unable to create plug in interface for USB deviceobject 0x441b

• I went into "System Preferences", clicked on "Security & Privacy", clicked on the Privacy tab and clicked on "Developer Tools". There, I clicked on "Terminal.app".

(Note: I still get the USB errors in the terminal when I run winecfg, but my mouse and keyboard work now.)
