Hey guys. I’ve recently started playing ERAS again. Last time I downloaded I had a problem with a lot of crashes. I’m sure part of that is I’m playing on a Mac through Wine. But this time I installed the new version of ERAS and it’s playing seemingly flawlessly and the game doesn’t seem to crash much at all during sea battles.. except when a ship sinks. That crashes the game every time. So as you can surmise that makes playing the game a challenge lol.
I saw above that there was some issues regarding ship sinking crashes. Is there any potential resolution to these issues?
So I don’t know what happened but I tried to make a post earlier with some screenshots. I did a fresh install without vanilla and with the updates applied. This time the issues were less significant: basically now the lighting issues at evening/night are with the characters, the flowers and grass type foliage, and the ships when they’re ashore or viewed from land. Everything else is fine. There was also some minor things with certain objects having an outline and sea foam sometimes looking a little strange and choppy/flickering.
Despite that the mod looks great, so thanks again. If there’s anything else you think I can do to get this running perfectly, I’d be glad to know.
Hey, I’m new to this game and mod, but it looks like a fantastic achievement.
I’ve been trying to set it up on my Mac through a port, and it seems like it’s been working really well with only one exception I’ve found so far. I’m unsure if it relates to my installation process, graphics settings, porting or what.
Basically at evening and nighttime in game, all the buildings and outdoor environments look like they’re still in sunlight. Only characters, ships, and water are responding to nighttime lighting conditions. I tried my vanilla version of the game and this doesn’t happen, so I’m thinking maybe something went wrong with my installation of ERAs. I wasn’t really sure how to install it with the Mac port, so I think I just copied over and merged the files with the vanilla installation.
I look forward to playing the mod and it looks like you’ve really brought this game to life. I feel lucky to have discovered it, and it seems underrated to me. The breadth and level of detail are really impressive. I think I only found out about it because of youtube comments lol.
Are you referring to Magic Mountain? I think I will read it that second time but I’m not ready yet. As a fun fact, a former teacher of mine said that the character Settembrini is based on Ernst Bloch and Naphta is based on Lucaks.

Metropolis with the pop soundtrack looks hilarious haha. Revisiting old cinema now that there’s so many good transfers and remasters of things is definitely a must. I was able to see Man with a Movie Camera at anthology film archives in NY several years ago, and I really like the style of Russian movie posters from days of early cinema. My name is referencing the german title to Thomas Mann’s book The Magic Mountain.
