you have to get that yourself... I cannot legally make it available. You need to either have the disc for STO, or do the torrent download of it from http://startrekonline.com/download. You must use the torrent, the other installer/downloader will not work. If you've never downloaded a torrent before, you need some type of torrent program like bittorrent, utorrent, transmission, etc... Once you downloaded the whole game, then you'll have the setup.exe and everything it needs to install.

to download a torrent, you need torrent software of some type. BitTorrent will do... I use Transmission myself.

First off, thank you doh123 for building this. Just found out that this thing existed and now I can play CO with my girl friend with her mac.

Yes CO does work just fine with the wrapper. However, the only issue I am having is that I cannot get the XBox controller seen by the Wine skin. I have installed the OSX driver for the xbox 360 controller from here: http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/Pro...ller/OsxDriver but I can not get the driver seen by the Skin. If you could advice me on what to do I within the settings I would be most great full.

Sadly Wine still has USB issues, and is not good with many controllers. I've heard some people have gotten xbox 360 controllers working but only for some games.. it depends on the game. As far as I know there is nothing special you can do, it either works or it doesn't for now.... and controller support is even more lacking in OSX right now than Linux where most of the Wine devs spend their time.

I know some people use GamePad Companion or other mapping software to map game pads to keyboard keys in OSX and then use them... it may work in this case.

I have been playing some Champions Online too and it is a lot of fun... I may need to take my fixed wrapper and put it up here as a download.. but really its just a different Icon and Champions Online.exe instead of Star Trek Online.exe.

Thank you for the information. I will look into that.
