Using the official Mac client and a new Free Trial account, I attempted to reinstall, and got the same result: black splash screen with white logo. I then edited the FFXIV_BOOT.cfg file, setting "Browser 1" (from Browser 2). The game properly launched the old style login screen (Heavensward art), and I logged in properly. Now, waiting two to three hours for the download to complete.

With regards to CX, after the install of a couple hundred dependencies, the first run of the launcher/patcher generated "An unknown error occurred in register_dlls" message. I clicked Skip and let the process finish. I started the Launcher, it apparently fixed the error and I got to the old theme login window. (Apparently, I left a .cfg file behind with the Browser 1 setting). I logged in with my windows-licensed account and am now facing four hours worth of download/patch for Shadowbringers
After the game is downloaded and BEFORE you launch the game i go into Crossover GUI, right click the steam bottle, settings, and enable "DXVK Vulkan backend for D3D11 (builtin). I have to disable this setting to get the launch to launch but I have to turn it on to load the game.

The newest expansion, Final Fantasy XIV Endwalker, will be out this December 3, 2021, and several players are encountering the "Unable to download patch files" error, so they can't get the update - Here's how you could try to fix it to enjoy FF14 Endwalker at launch.
The "unable to download patch files" error is a pretty common problem with FF14 and a recurrent issue happening with each update. Players who've encountered this issue in the past regularly mentioned it's a firewall issue or a permissions issue. So here are the methods you could try to fix the problem.
To disable the Windows firewall, go to Control Panel, System and Security, and then Windows firewall. Click "Turn off Windows Firewall (not recommended) for both Private and Public network settings". And then try downloading the FF14 Endwalker update again. Once you're done be sure to reactivate the firewall.
You can easily do that by deleting the "4e9a232b" folder of FF14. You can find it in Users, -name of the user you're logged on with on Windows-, Documents, My Games, Final Fantasy XIV A Realm Reborn, Downloads, and then Patch. In there, delete the folder "4e9a232b". And then try downloading the update again.
