Infinte post launch load screen swtor

You should re-install the game. This might work, but I'm not sure, because I didn't have that king of problem.

I reinstalled everything and it went off without a hitch the first time I launched it (like last time). But yet again I am staring at this never ending load screen the second time around.

@Aonaibh

try editing the client_setting file per this link

The closest I have seen on a normal system would be start game ok once then unable to load the 2nd time until the PC reboot then load once only again, that was a bitdefender issue in that case locking file processes.

unfortunately I am not familiar with wine, maybe worth posting on one of their boards to possibly see how others have set the game to run

Offhand though you are 100% best to be installing the game as non streaming so ensure it stays like that at present, and run the game shortcut as administrator (equivalent in wine)

I tried the repair but it didn't work along with the other solutions on the page that I could translate into the mac stuff I have in front of me. I feel like I've tried every solution possible at this point. XD I just want to play a decent SW's game! lol! How do I install the game as non streaming? Or figure out if I am or am not streaming in the first place? I saw the part about an "ST" insignia and I couldn't find one on the login or start up windows 😛 I'll defiantly look into some different forums as suggested.

@Aonaibh

To check if using non streaming see this guide link  does this particular directx redist install ok   ?
