Using MXOEMU on Mac via wine
Hey I have a mac and I downloaded the launcher and I'm able to run it rather smoothly. My account has not be registered, since i can't get passed the EULA page. When ever I click ACCEPT, I get this pop up
Patch system error (result code -47)
URL open failed. Patch servers down or internet connection problem.
And on the launcher it self it says
Launch version: v7.5668
Client version: v7.5668
Received unexpected result code from patcher (0)
Thing is, i downloaded the patch and (I'm pretty sure) put it in the right folder. Is there a possible way to fix this? Or am I just wasting my time?

MxO doesn't work via WINE sorry
You can run it (at low fps) via VMWare Workstation/Fusion on Windows XP though (best to have rd3d_disable.txt in the folder then).

I have been having this exact problem, completely identical situation, but I'm running it on 32-bit Windows 10. I believe I extracted everything correctly, very confused...
Sorry to Necro a long-dead thread, but for those still looking to do this, it's possible to play MxO on Mac with CrossOver:
1. Install CrossOver (there's a 14-day trial if you don't want to buy it)
2. Create a bottle for MxO
3. Download the MxO zip file from the MxOEmu homepage (and register a login if you haven't already)
4. Either
a) navigate to the C: drive by right-clicking on the bottle and copy the contents of the zip file to anywhere (a folder) on the C: drive
-OR-
b) click "Install Windows Application" and choose the contents of the zip file as your installer directory
5. Via "Install Windows Application" install DirectX 9 (search for DirectX for Modern Games)
6. Via "Install Windows Application" install Direct Music (search for Direct Music)
7. Navigate to the C: drive by right-clicking on the bottle
8. Go to the folder you installed MxO to and double click on Launcher.exe
9. Login
10. Voila!
