Did you follow the procedure ? It's what I use to run it on my Mac.
I have yes, but I am very new with wine. I did as you say but it still launches with the top left portion of the menu resized to fit the whole window. I tried DL'ing your script, with the wine staging app in the same folder as bigbrother.exe on my desktop. I first tried the command "cd /Users/myname/Desktop/BigBrother" followed by "wine BigBrother.exe" but it always launched with the background image too large to fit.

BB only seems to work with Wine Staging (an experimental wine branch), so you need to use the wine from Wine Staging.app. When I run with another wine, I see the image shifted down and to the right, with black where it moved from. I haven't seen the menu resized to fit the whole window.

I'm using version 2.21 of Wine Staging.app. If you've got a newer one, try downloading that version.

I've been using the latest version of Wine Stagin (3.8) and having the problem you describe. Thank you for your suggestion, do you happen to know where I could get the 2.21 version?

I did some digging on winehq.com, and found this directory, which has old versions:

2.21 is there.

Need help. Whenever I start the game it starts up like this.
What OS are you using? Are you running wine?

I had a similar error from another game years ago. Try changing DPI settings in either your windows display settings, or in the applications properties. Both should be accessible through right clicking. Either the screen or the executable itself.

I really doubt that this is your problem, but just in case...

Did you download the game from here, or from a different source? This problem use to happen to people who had the original version from Patreon, and then they modded it with something from f95zone. They weren't compatible.

How come this game is still so popular? Did the game not end?

Have other people taken over or what?
