Red screen

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

Trying to run on my Macbook Pro, downloaded the correct Mac version via the torrent, unzipped and installed. Upon running the World Of Warcraft icon the game loads but is minimised to the bottom left corner of the screen tiny and the remainder of the screen is red. Has anyone else encountered this error?.

Thanks!

I feel your pain, I'm having the exact same issue with a 2016 MacBook pro.    Tried running it as root as others have suggested, tried adjusting screen resolution, and also tried to play around with the WTF file.  Perhaps it has something to do with the new AMD card (Pro 460) Apple is using in these machines?

Running as root, I get the following output in terminal:

 

CGxVboBroker5 activated for GL_ARRAY_BUFFER_ARB, size  2097152 for buffer slot 0, hints = 0x03

CGxVboBroker5 activated for GL_ARRAY_BUFFER_ARB, size  2097152 for buffer slot 1, hints = 0x03

objc[1812]: Invalid or prematurely-freed autorelease pool 0x10097a0. Set a breakpoint on objc_autoreleasePoolInvalid to debug. Proceeding anyway because the app is old (SDK version 10.4.0). Memory errors are likely.

 

Any ideas/potential solutions would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks

Managed to get it working! Simple fix (I feel like an idiot now i didn't think of this before haha):

Disable Automatic gfx switching

(Go to System Pref>>>Energy Saver>>>Deselect 'Automatic graphics switching')

 

Welcome back to Azeroth!

 

Cheers
