I also play some games using WineBottler. Pretty seamless and decent performance. The recent QuakeLive move from platform agnostic browser plugin to windows-only binary was trivial, and I've even gotten the windows version of Steam to run acceptably in it.
Unfortunately Mac CS2 was built for PowerPC, not Intel so it can't be run natively.
If you were really determined you could:
1) Install Wine for Mac http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
2) get the Windows version of Photoshop CS2
3) install it and run the Photoshop exe.
I downloaded this on my mac a few weeks ago, and it took a long time. I'm not sure whether or not you followed the same process I did, but I can tell you what I went through.
https://www.mediafire.com/file/4d5dde7d9e39ut5/Bacchikoi%21%21.zip?ssl=1
I downloaded this file that I found from a comment in the Bacchikoi wiki. It gave me a .zip file. I went ahead and downloaded the Unarchiver (https://theunarchiver.com/) so that I could unzip it.
Once I did that, I selected the file and ran Bacchikoi.exe
However, .exe files require another program called "Wine" to run, so I downloaded that (http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/). Then I right clicked on the .exe file, selected "Open with wine"
It should work on your mac after that. The .app game icon didn't work for me either, (It says it can't be opened), but it works when I run the .exe with Wine.
Nope. If you read the thread, Winebottler's dev replied. FWIW, I have used it without any consequences and haven't found any viruses.
You should be fine as long as you download from http://winebottler.kronenberg.org for WineBottler.
I also have a Mac and I use wine (this app lets you open windows programs on your mac), you can download it here
It's really easy to add these mods, but it only works on a homebrewed Wii.
First download GC rebuilder (i think it requires an account to download but it doesnt take too long)
Open your SSBM .iso in GCR
right click on one of the character files, select import and choose one of the new skins to add it
The character files are named like PlMsBk.dat, the third and fourth letters indicate character and the last two indicate color, in this case it refers to Black Marth
the downloadable files already have the file name of the .dat they should replace so it should be easy to identify. (It's not possible to replace a costume of one color to another, for example a PlMsWh with a PlMsNr).
Also, if you want to replace one of the extra 20XX costumes for the L or R triggers, they're named the same its just the extension that changes to .lat or .rat respectively.
You can use wine bottler: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org
It allows you to open most .exe files (Windows programs) on Mac, including Questionbanks straight from your Mac without having to install Windows through BootCamp or some virtual machine. Only downside is that you need to reinstall the qbank every time you want to open it, but that's only an extra 10 second hassle. Just use the same qbank program for Windows and open it using Wine.
I've been wanting go go back and play Ragnarok Online. Problem is that I have a Mac and I don't want to use Bootcamp. I saw this video showing how you can play Ragnarok Online in a Mac OS. A third party App called WINEBOTTLER made it possible. I've been trying since Sunday night and I only reached, in downloading the patch. When the patch download is done and about to play the game, the Ragnarok program won't start. =/
BTW, I'm trying to play in LimitRO.
As others have said, there is not a Touhou game that has been ported to OS X. However I use Wine to run the programs, and most of the games run pretty well!
I use this, it comes with the regular wine. I personally don't use the Bottler, I found EXEs converted into apps to act weird.
There are a few exceptions:
In IN, you need to install a Japanese localization thingy, or else the font will look a bit small, and be a bit broken in a few places. AFAIK you can't really do that.
In PoFV (assuming you use the English patch) you need to put the Cirno font in your Wine directory, not your own computer's directory.
In the newer fighting games (HM, ULiL), you may or may not have nothing but a black screen in game. If it's messed up you need to install a DirectX via wine tricks, IIRC.
HI, im happy to help MAC users.. No need na po virtual, bootcamp or parallels.. you need WINE to run windows-based programs in mac. Since EAC allows it na, kasi -- dati hindi pwede dahil sa previous game client nila. I'm a parallel user since roph started until this update na hinihintay ko mapalitan ang kanilang client and now im using WINE. No more heavy process at high temperature sa mbp nyu and save space. IF ever nyu ma install wine.. para ma compatible ung mouse scroll nyu ---> hanapin nyu ung CONFIGURATION > GRAPHICS > uncheck all "windows settings".
First of all, make sure your PSP is rooted/jailbroken. I have 6.60 Pro-C Then, You need files such as WINE BOTTLER (for Mac, (http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/downloads) and Gamepad Companion (available on Mac Appstore to modify the controls of psp on PPSSPP for mac) Note: You don't need Wine Bottler and Gamepad Companion if you're using windows. You need to install FUSA GAMEPAD on your rooted/jailbroken PSP. (https://burnedsap.blogspot.it/2013/01/using-your-psp-as-game-controller-for.html?m=1) Then download PPSSPP on their website depending on your device. Install it on your Mac using Wine Bottler; for Windows, just install the .exe file.
I'm not sure that will be happening anytime soon. I did get RCT2 working with Wine on Linux.
You can get Wine for Mac and try it yourself. Do mind that compatibility is not going to be optimal as you're faking Windows.
I have done some quick Googling for you. Doing everything manually may be a bit advanced, so if you need a GUI then I recommend this piece of software. Otherwise this is pretty nice too if you're into advanced stuff :-).
You really don't need a different guide for setting up PM on a Mac, since it's the same process as on a PC, but with a couple extra steps. In addition to what this guide tells you to get, download and install the latest stable build of Wine. This will allow you to run most of those pesky .exe files that OS X can't on it's own.
You can do pretty much what the guide tells you to. Download and install Dolphin, and set it up. Then get an NTSC copy of a Brawl iso (we can't link you to one from here, just google it), put it in an easily-accessible folder in case you add more games later, and tell Dolphin to look in that folder for games with the "Browse" button in the bar at the top of the window.
Unfortunately, Wine can't run the SD card maker, so you'll have to either use your Windows machine to do it and flash it over, or find a download of an sd.raw file somewhere.
Then you use Wine to open Winimage, which you can use to edit the contents of the sd.raw file you've created or downloaded. The download link I provided has my own personal build pre-installed, so you'll probably want to do it anyway. Then you put the sd.raw file in Dolphin folder in Application Support. Normally this folder is hidden, so you can either type in a Terminal command to make it visible (it's in the guide) or press Shift+Command+G and type in "~/Library/Application\ Support/Dolphin/Wii" (without the quotations) and put sd.raw in there. After that, you can just follow the guide exactly.
I usually use Wine and/or WineBottler to run programs on a Mac since it's free but good nonetheless. Since CrossOver is a commercial software, what do you find about its performance? And how do you compare it to Wine (that is, if you ever used Wine)?
There are a lot of good suggestions here and personally I use Sublime Text, but you can use Notepad++ on a Mac. Install WineBottler (http://winebottler.kronenberg.org) and use that to install Notepad++. It is free and works great. I haven't run into any issues yet.
The best alternative to Foobar on Mac is Foobar! I used WineBottler to create a Wine app bundle out of Foobar. It doesn't take a whole lot of effort, and it works extremely well. Give it a shot, and if you run into any hiccups, let me know and I'll try to walk you through it.
Hi OP, I don't know if you were still having issues with GT.
I'll tell you how I did it, but I'll also leave this up for others in case they need it. There are a lot of Mac users now, so hopefully others will see this. I tried taking out my Vista laptop but it wasn't working right (not related to this, mostly related to why I dumped it the first time), so I needed a way to make it work on my main computer.
Plus with this method I had no issues with it loading the thread templates.
First, get wine bottler. For Wine Bottler, go to this dude's site and download the development one. It would install wine anyways, so I don't know how it will affect you if you already have wine. Save the zip file on your desktop or in documents, doesn't matter which, just somewhere where you know it will be. I am also assuming you have >10.6. I have Maverick and it worked fine.
Open the dmg and drag Wine and WineBottler into your App folder in Finder, so you will have it in your Launchpad. This is mostly if you want to use it for other stuff too. I mostly do this for all non-app store apps, cause I will forget where I downloaded them.
When you open WineBottler, it will automatically go to this page. These are Windows programs that he has already included in the package. Doesn't help us. But good if you will ever need one of them.
Go to the Advanced tab. Choose the game time .exe file. Basically follow the instructions and bam, you have GT as an app. (By the way, if you right click on the .exe file in Finder, it will have the option to open with this, and it goes right to this advanced page. Just FYI)
Oh and the hockey bot/python thing was a little different for us to what the guy had listed over in /r/HockeyGT if you were confused by that.
And again thanks to /u/sentry07 because it would take me an hour to make the game threads, so this is a huge help.
I don't remember if I ever got around to playing games on Steam when I had it installed, so I couldn't tell you how the performance is. But Winebottler (opensource) has predefined prefix for Steam. I think Crossover ($60) also has an installer for it, and may run a bit smother, and have more support. Don't take my word for that though.
If you want my opinion though, I'd probably just ask a friend who has a copy of windows to let you install it in boot camp. You'd get better performance, but maybe the biggest downside is that you'd need to partition your hard drive instead of just adding files to your current partition.
I’ve written a step by step how to do it before. Here it is. Can’t guarantee that it still works:
Hi, I love this game as well!!! I used to play the ultimate collection version on an old windows computer! Now I have a MacBook as well, but I really wanted to play the game. I did a lot of research and tried several methods but this is what I did (I have only managed to get the base game, so no extinct animals and aquariums): First, install Wine, wine is a program which is used to run and use programs and games that normally only work on windows. Here is a link to the website were you can download it: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org . Now that you have the wine program on your computer you’re are going to need the files used to install the game onto your computer. Here is my Dropbox account were I have all the files necessary. download all these, and I would advise you to put them in a folder named “Zoo Tycoon 2” or something to keep things neat. Heres the link to the dropbox: https://www.dropbox.com/home/Zoo%20Tycoon%202 . Now that we have the files and the Wine program, we can start the installation. In the files that you downloaded from my Dropbox there is a file named “Setup.Exe”. If you double click the file after a moment a small window pops up. This is the wine program. There are two options there DO NOT CHANGE WHAT IT SELECTED! And press go. Now a (probably familiar) window pops up from zoo tycoon 2. Here up top choose the option “Install”, this will start the installation process. After the game is done installing and you want to play the game, run the “Setup.Exe” file again. Then again press “go” in the Wine program window that appears and have fun! I would advise you to move the “Setup.exe” onto your desktop so you can just open the game quickly everytime. If anything is unclear or if you have problems don’t be afraid to ask :)
This is what I use for Homm3 on a MBP. (I use HD mod and HotA with it)
The game graphics are a mess when it boots in fullscreen mode, so just press f4 to go windowed and then f4 again to go back to fullscreen. (I find I have to hold f4 for a second longer than usual keystrokes to get it to exit fullscreen) When it goes back to fullscreen it should be normal.
I don't use the "make this a mac application feature" I just tell it to run the .exe as it.
I wonder if Linux has a similar spin on Wine?
wine is almost effortless to use on Mac these days. I installed it to run the Portable Apps platform to have access to some basic Windows software but it can do so much more than that.
Winebottler is a great place to start if you want to run Windows software on your Mac without having to install Windows.
Download WineBottler from here: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org
Install Steam through WineBottler.
Install Fallout through the WineBottler version of Steam (I put a W in parentheses next to mine so I would know the difference).
I just finished a play through on my MacBook Air 2013 with no problems.
Didn't help that I submitted the results a day late.
On a related note, if anyone can package my rate program with WineBottler and give it to /u/AdnormalPopPunk (as he/she only has a Mac and my program was written with Windows in mind), it'll make future Top Ten Pop Tens faster as nobody will have to wait on me. I was able to test it in Wine on my Linux machine and it worked perfectly.
wine reads windows executables and tries to translate all windows-specific instructions, so your operating system can understand them.
wine needs to have it's environment set-up. if you're not familiar with command line on mac, I would recommend crossover(paid - trial available): https://www.codeweavers.com/products/crossover-mac
or winebottler(free, but outdated): http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
On second thought, why not just use Winebottler to package it as a Mac app?
Or, use Crossover?
CueCard has a platinum rating in the WineHQ apps database, so either of these methods should work great.
Here's where I got the game files: https://www.reddit.com/r/pokemonuranium/comments/4xnwpe/i_made_a_uranium_mirror_site_where_you_can/
And here's where to get Wine and Winebottler: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
Then this video and my intial post will help you set it all up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oBuQ-S3nmI
Go to System Preferences and set it so that you can open applications from anywhere, and that should do it. Your Mac is most likely entirely capable of running the program, and OSX is just being a bitch.
Alternatively, you can use Winebottler to run the original Windows version. This might be a better solution, because once you've installed it and learned how to use it, you can run any Windows program easily.
I don't believe so. The requirements state you need at least Windows 98 (I did say the requirements were low).
I don't know much about Macs, but you might be able to emulate it. I've only played around with WINE on Linux, so I can't say how well it works.
Not entirely. There is a application called Wine Bottler which allows you to open any winow based programs on Mac, once installed just double click the .exe and it should open up. Wine also offers Winetricks, once wine is installed a image of a glass should appear in the top bar of you desk top. Click it, go to Winetricks and it will show all the things wine can do.
It's actually a game. As far as I know Mac can emulate a subset of Windows with Wine. I'm using it on Debian and the only bad thing I can say is that long tables (say, company view) can drag performance down to a sluggish hell. It got better though, even my crappy laptop can handle it reasonably but since Chapter Master is in alpha stage it can get weird between updates.
There is also Winebottler but since I don't have a Mac I can't really assert if it is any good.
I tried using a python package py2app to convert the original script into a Mac App but it turns out py2app is only available for Mac systems and I happen to be on Windows. But, I was able to find a tutorial involving the use of WinBottler, an application which can convert windows Exe to Mac Apps. Unfortunately, I can't make use of this app myself but since you are on a Mac system, you can use it to convert the exe to a mac app. It's fairly simple and has a graphical interface. Here's a tutorial to help you and here's the link to WineBottler.
Use wine to package image burn with the cdi plugin.
http://winebottler.kronenberg.org
http://theisozone.com/tutorials/dreamcast/burning-and-backup/dreamcast-burning-cdi-2012-style/
I use this method in Linux and it works great! It should work just as well on a Mac.
You can use Wine for Mac, Bootcamp took up to much of my hard drive so I uninstalled and got parallels. But if you just want to use it for that game, get Wine bottler. It's free and the website teaches you how to use it.
I've only installed retail version of STALKER on Linux using PlayOnLinux (frontend for Wine). Works flawlessly, so I assume it should work pretty well on Mac too.
You'll have to install a Windows version of Steam using either stock Wine, Wineskin or WineBottler. Once that's done login using your account, download and run STALKER. I don't think you have to tweak any settings but in case something goes wrong just post error messages as a reply to this post.
W.I.N.E. see if it'll run from there. Wine is a handy tool for anyone using a Mac. It essentially gives you the ability to run exe, DLL, and MSI files. It's a little bit buggy but for this tool it should work.
First you need to install UnRarX to extract the files, and then you can use a windows-application converter like WineBottler to open the .exe files (instructional video).
Wine is a great free option that will allow you to run specific windows programs on a mac.
Bootcamp is an official mac product that is free. It will help you to partition your hard drive and install windows OS on the partition. The downside is, you need to buy or somehow obtain a copy of windows.
If you play a lot of hardcore games, love windows, and basically bought the mac because of the really sturdy hardware, then get bootcamp. If you just want to casually play some games and/or money is an issue, wine should work fine.
I used Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows 7. If you don't have a copy you could try something like WineBottler but the game won't run nearly as well as natively running Windows
I'm running the game on my Macbook using bootcamp and Windows 7 (old key I had laying around)
I tried VM Fusion which didn't work for me, I wasn't able to get the game fully installed with it. There is a program called wine which should work, from my experience with it in the past framerate may take a hit, how much depends on the game. I personally didn't try it though, so it may be worth a shot if your friend wants to run it in Mac OS.
Last week I received an email that Skype won't support my installed version any longer and I would have to upgrade.
So I guess there is no way around it.
You could, however, try to install the Windows application sandboxed with Winebottler? http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
Or use Skype solely from your phone (if available).
All in all the experience using Skype got worse and worse of the last years, I'm thinking about abandoning it entirely. Heck there are web applications that get the job done with less bloat.
On the gaming status; parallels is a bad idea for gaming as it is equvalent of running Windows inside of the Mac.
Using Bootcamp is the most effective way as it just installs Windows on a part of the drive and runs it as a Windows computer, but costs the money for a windows key and you can only run one OS at a time.
For the completely free options (and least reliable) you have Wine and WineBottler:
Wine in its pure installation form.
WineBottler, which is just Wine in application form (easier to use)
For making Windows games work using Wine here is the most glorious website ever.
yeah,
you use this programme: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
and follow the youtube tutorial here - http://forum.wiziwig.eu/threads/87110-MAC-OSX-Acestream-2-1-5-3/page4
follow every step to the letter.
> I'm on a Mac so there's not many options for playing VNs, unfortunately.
You may wish to look into the mac port of WINE (I believe it's WineBottler?). It won't be able to run all VNs, but it should manage most just fine. From a brief look at old test rules, seems like Saya no Uta runs without issues with it.
I guess you could run a Windows legends viewer through Wine. I haven't tried using any legends-viewing utilities with Wine yet, but they seem like they should work without too much trouble. I recommend WineBottler for OS X, but installing it with Homebrew works just as well (if you're comfortable with the command line and have dev tools installed - otherwise, WineBottler is definitely faster to set up).
If you're feeling adventurous, you could also try the WineBottler (http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/) which emulates Windows programs to run under Mac. They try to make it fairly painless to install and setup and you don't have to feel guilty about playing a less-than-legal copy. ; )
If changing the user agent to IE doesn't fool your school's servers, you can run the PC version of IE easily following these instructions:
- Download and install WineBottler
- Launch it
- Click on "Existing Prefixes" on the lefthand side
- Select the version of Internet Explorer you want to install. 6 is the most stable, 7 is OK, 8 is buggy as hell. IMHO, 7 is the sweet spot
- Click Install
- Choose a name for the new "app" that you're creating
- Sit tight, because you'll have to be there for the IE 7 setup
- When it's done, you'll get a dialog box saying "Prefix created successfully"
- Quit WineBottler and launch the app you created above. It'll run like pretty much any Mac app
Download & Install Wine from http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ -- it comes in an app bundle alongside the app WineBottler, which isn't needed.
Install D2 using files from Blizzard. It'll install to ~/Wine Files/drive_c/Program Files/Diablo II/.
Only thing that fails with this method is the cutscenes, but just press your mouse to skip it and all's well.
And agreed with above guy on Apple ditching Rosetta. Power PC is dead and Mac users have had 5 years to move on. Let it go.
You could use WineBottler (free) or CrossOver ($40 but polished w/ support) to install Internet Explorer 6. It's a lot easier than virtualization.
Once upon a time i used a program called Winebottler (WINE) on a mac which worked for a number of windows applications. What it does is it creates a WINE prefix and everything required (dependencies, windoze crap, etc) and throws them into a standalone mac .app file. You can even move the file from one computer to another without having to even install WINE on the second machine, or Winebottler for that matter. Though I havnt tried it in a few years so it may or may not work out of the box like it did back then.
WINE however on Linux works great!
"Microsoft emulator" wouldn't be the right term.
The usual options are:
Dual Booting: If you don't already have this (and I assume you don't), you probably aren't keen on doing this. Sacrifices disk space that you will never be able to use for OS X while it exists due to partitioning. It would be the best performance and most compatible though.
Virtual Machine: Setting up Windows inside of a Virtual Machine. (Virtual Box for example, which would be free to use, but of course Windows itself technically isn't.) Performance may vary... but at least it's self-contained and doesn't change your system.
Wine: I don't own or use Macs generally, but I would be curious if WineBottler would work. It's a wrapper around Wine, which is software that gets some Windows apps running on non-Windows platforms. (It's not technically an emulator per se, more of a bridge.) WineBottler is a convenience wrapper to make Wine easier to use on OS X specifically. But all of this is contingent on whether NITW would run under Wine at all.
Sounds most likely like you either need to add or remove a header
Use this to do either: https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/400/
And because it's a Windows .exe, you can use this free software to use it to run the program as a Mac .app: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
This is a Windows version. I expect to have a Mac version in a few weeks. A friend with a Mac has offered to do the port. It is not much work but i'm dependent on his schedule. As an alternative you could try running winebottler, http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ Winebottler lets you run windows apps on a mac.
Sadly not, this needs to be done manually, have you tried using bo3 bulkedit? ( The tool is written using .py ) with my knowledge making small programs the filesystem for Macs are different but apart from that the core script should work )
Try this: ( or google Mac winebottler ) https://www.google.nl/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/&ved=2ahUKEwjilvOoj-vfAhUIY1AKHRcTD00QFjAAegQIAhAB&usg=AOvVaw22_8zLHeoOPkEeR097iSfT
You might try Wine as a way to use Windows programs on MacOS. Winebottler is convenient.
Wine doesn't work for everything, but it does work for a lot of things and often you can check beforehand and see if others have gotten it to work.
It should have all options. I've been using MACs private and professional for the past 15 years. What are you using? Are you using Wineskin (http://wineskin.urgesoftware.com/tiki-index.php), WineBottler (http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/) or something else?
If you are using just some wine compiled for Mac give Wineskin a try. It has a GUI setup utility.
I haven't tested OW with wine but i could do so.
Again I think the best performance you can get is a bootcamp/native windows install. Your macbooks mobil gpu just isn't powerfull enough.
Thanks for the suggestion, but I really don't want the users doing anything with shell. Remember that most of them are just looking to play/try the game on their Mac, and likely found the guide through Google, and are not computer savvy.
If they want to get rid of it, they will have a big problem trying to figure out how to get rid of everything that was installed with the game.
First I used to install games through shell, then I used WineBottler http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ and then PlayOnMac when I wanted to install just SWTOR.
If I will have to switch, I will go with WineBottler. The UI is not as friendly, but does more things than PlayOnMac :>.
I was unable to get this to work on macOS / Steam. I got the mod installed and configured in the Advanced tab of the Feral Interactive launcher.
I had to dig for a while but I found and replaced the medieval2.preference.cfg file in ~/Library/Application Support/Feral Interactive/Medieval II Total War/VFS/Local/preferences with the one provided.
I was unable to find a 4gb patch that would run in wine. I'm not sure I would need that anyway – I've used a shitload of mods in the past and never experienced issues.
Kinda bummed out.
VMware Fusion should give you D3D10 acceleration and Parallels is a bit better in that regard in my testing. They are supposed to have D3D11 sometime soon...
For KVM GPU pass-through you need Linux, all the hardware that supports it (VT-X,VT-D, ect) and some lengthy set-up time. There is no way to do this in Windows from what I know.
So unless VMware/Parallels or OSX brings that feature over I wouldn't count on it... So make sure you currently have Vmware/Parallels tools installed in your Win VM to enable video acceleration.
If I misunderstood and you are actually running OSX with VMware with Win10 as your host, then you are doing everything backwards...
Also look into running Windows apps and games natively in OSX with stuff like Wine Bottler and PlayOnMac.
The store page of the game should say which platforms the game is available on.
Age of Mythology: Extended Edition does not seem to officially support Mac OS, but there are programs like WineBottler that can make some Windows-only programs run on Mac.
To use ygocore on mac (which is initially impossible because ygocore is a windows product), you need to download Wine.
http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
which then after that, you need to leave Wine running in the background during the entire time you're using ygocore.
I don't have an exact guide for this but I managed to get it working on my mac, so if you have any queries (and anyone viewing this thread) feel free to drop me a message!!
No, but the devs said they were supporting Linux and Mac at release. And I just tried Wine stable (2.0.1), not devel, CrossOver, or WineBottler.
I ended up using our off-domain Win10 image in a VM with PCI passthrough, which isn't really helpful to anyone else.
The demo download is for the stable Windows version of FL, so it won't work on Mac. There is an Alpha version available for Mac, but it is in development and is likely to be unstable.
If you have an Image-Line account and own FL, log in to the IL forums, and you can download the latest Mac Alpha HERE. However, the FL Mac Alpha currently requires you to have a MacOS version 10.7 or higher, so to use it you will have to update your OS version, if possible.
There is also a Windows version of FL wrapped in Crossover to work on Mac, available HERE. This has been discontinued, is provided as is, and you will not receive support for this version. Development has moved from the Crossover-wrapped version to the native Alpha mentioned above.
The only other choices would be to attempt to wrap the software using Wine, or to dual-boot with a Windows partition so you can use FL natively.
:)
You can use Wine. More specifically you can use WineBottler (http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/). This build of Wine makes it easier to install windows programs to a mac. It is noob-proof, and it is free.
(I hope I'm not breaking any rules by posting this link - If I am, I will happily take it down)
I don't use a MAC anymore, so I'm not sure of the limitations, but the WineBottler project has had a stable for about 1 year (and its free).
http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
depending on the OS you are running you may have to use the development version
For mac it looks like you need to install "WineBottler" - runs windows programs on mac
Actually, it can work on Mac if you follow these instructions. :)
I started playing about 5 minutes ago, and it seems to be working perfectly on Mac OSX 10.7.5 (Lion) and Wine 1.6.1.
EDIT: Oops, posted this just after reading your FAQ, but noticed that you said about four hours ago that you'll be making a Mac tutorial soon.
EDIT 2: Was premature in saying that it ran "perfectly." Battles take <strong>foreeeeeveeeer</strong>. The first one against your Rival took me over half an hour to complete.
I will give it a shot in Linux when I have the time and post the results here :) Wine behaves a little differently on Mac than on Linux. If I remember correctly with Wine Tricks and Wine Bottler you can make windows exe into Mac DMG and mount the images and run them natively. Not sure how it will work with Rodina. Unfortunately my Mac does not run OS x any longer. It is only running Linux. so I can''t test wine bottler out with Rodina. I have had other windows games running on Mac with Wine Bottler though.
I use wine to run the game on my MacBook Air, runs great. It's got a platinum rating from wine community forums for compatibility on OS X. You just need the game files downloaded from the website or original cd.
I used wine bottler also which helped make the installation of wine a breeze.
Why not just use WineBottler? http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
I've setup a few Macs in our office to run QuickBooks 2016 using it with relatively few issues, all of which only took a little Google searching to work around.
what just worked for me: download and install winebottler 1.8-rc4 from http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ Then download acestream with vlc 2.x from http://info.acestream.org/#/install Start WineBottler and create a new package from the acestream installer. I changed the system to Windows7 instead of default XP, not ure if that's needed. In the final stage (after install) WineBottler asks which executable to start. By default the ace_udpater.exe is selected and I changed this to ace_player.exe. This ended up with a Mac app bundle that starts Ace Stream
options are:
to maybe use Wine? (http://winebottler.kronenberg.org) ive literally never got it to work for me, although ive only tried it a handful of times.
Virtual Machine running Windows, you could run whichever version you have thats compatible with that software. (i think this is the best idea, ive always had great experiences with Windows running on a VM. (VirtualBox or VMware fusion)
Bootcamp (probably extreme and really not needed).
It is very possible that you could get it working with Winebottler. You might still need the visual studio redistributable though. I don't own any apple devices, so it is difficult to test for mac. Sorry
I'm not a Mac person, but you could also try Wine distributions for OS X like Wineskin or WineBottler if you can't get TTR to work with OS X natively.
Welcome to the World of Wine, my friend. I kinda doubt it specifically needs Windows for something, and that it's just because it's an .exe folder. So here is my solution! http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/
your better off running it on bootcamp, if that isnt a choice (no hdd or too much cost) then your next choice is something like Crossover or WineBottler
This: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/will be your best bet. Wine tells the program it's running on windows. Not all programs work.
Edit: Changed the link to a pre-compiled easier to use version.
I downloaded project 64 and ran it through Wine. It's really easy to set up. https://www.winehq.org/ Or download it from here, seems to work better on Mac (download 1.6.1) http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ Wine comes bundled with this other app that I can't figure out.
I was in the same spot, can't remember if the game was running on Yosemite but :
- ETpro isn't supported on mac anyway
- fps was too low (C2D 2.0 ghz)
So If you can just use bootcamp and install the game on Windows. Alternatively, you could try using Wine.
The Wineskin package is outdated, but the Game.exe file works with Wine; just download Wine and WineBottler, then go:
/Applications/, right-click 'Pokemon Insurgence', select 'Show Package Contents', then go to /Contents/Program Files/Pokemon Insurgence 1.1/, right-click 'Game.exe' and select 'Open With > Wine.app'
~~If you're using El Capitan, several Wineskin apps don't work. I haven't found any work-arounds yet. There should be an update for Wineskin in a week or so.~~

I'm sorry but could you perhaps take a picture of the error message?
It is possible that you install it via another wine method (Perhaps just straight up wine.) And move the game files after installation.

Solution: Download the stable winebottler combo. Move Wine off the disk image, and launch the setup.exe with Wine.
Iirc the mac version currently uses winebottler... This is probably packaged with .NET up to 3.5.
The recent update made the game require .NET 4.0, which means the mac version is broken. You could try to manually include that into the package if you really wanted to.
winebottler might help you out if wine itself is a bit confusing, but almost no one here will be able to answer your question sir, you'll have to be the one to do the R&D

edit a 2 second google brought up this, which you could have also done :P

You should be able to play Warframe on a Mac. While there's not a platform sync available, you should be able to use a program like Wine Bottler to get the game running. If you haven't heard of it, Wine Bottler allows you to pretty much emulate Windows specific programs on a Mac. As far as I know, this site is a safe download point, but keep in mind that I use Windows and thus haven't had reason to actually try it out for myself. I only heard about this via a few friends of mine who are Mac users.
office 2007 and 2010 run under WINE. http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ it may take a bit to get it running, but it should run pretty smoothly. Also an option if you are OK spending money is crossover for mac. Essentially a commercial version of WINE with a pretty solid interface.
I know there is Wine for Linux to run Window programs. As for Macs, I am not entirely sure if there is a Wine like program for macs.
After a little googling I found this. I can't say this will work with your program but it is a start.
If there isn't a problem with the board or there isn't anything worth while in the new patch, then I say don't bother upgrading the firmware.
Tweetbot is good (albeit overpriced), and it is on the Mac App Store.
Orangered Reddit Notifier is on the Store too, and it's pretty solid.
Other than that, there are a few good games on the Mac App Store.
Everything else that's really good on the Mac App Store is made by Apple, so . . . :/
M$Office is pretty much essential if you need to work with other people.
Many great open-source programs (e.g., VLC) have Mac ports.
Many other popular programs (e.g., Dropbox, Skype) also have Mac ports.
HyperDock is nice if you miss some Windows-style Window Management features (Snap, Window Previews, etc.).
Indie games are hit and miss. Many have Mac ports, but some do not . . .
If you need to run Windows programs, I recommend Wine and VMWare in that order, since Wine is free and works 80-90% of the time if you don't need (native) USB support:
Wine Bottler has a few options when it comes to USB support.
However, if this hardware has custom drivers, it's probably not going to work through Wine Bottler, per the FAQ I linked, and the IBV page clearly states that it's Windows-only.
Try giving following these instructions to get it running, but I'm not confident that it'll work.
Wine will run these games on Macs:
http://winebottler.kronenberg.org
Wine cannot be ported to non-x86 systems (ARM, PPC, etc.) without being coupled to an x86 emulator, which reduces performance dramatically . . . :(
sorry for the lateness, i'm on here sporadically as you can tell.
running Incursion via Wine:
install wine for os x: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org
download Incursion windows binary: https://bitbucket.org/rmtew/incursion-roguelike/downloads/Incursion-0.6.9Y16.7z
run wine, get a prefix setup.
unpack and copy the Incursion folder to your wine 'Program Files' folder (you can do this in the Finder, doesn't have to be within wine)
navigate to Incursion via the wine file manager
open Incursion.exe. I'm running it now, it seems to work so far.
Here's a link to WINE bottler, so you can bottle the .exe into a WINE app. It won't have all the features (like the toolbar for example) that a program running through wine will, but for keysav it will do everything you need it to, and it's much simpler
If anyone asked, then his question would have been criticized as well... someone would have said that asking is "irrelevant" since I don't see how it wouldn't tantamount to saying "more importantly: does it work in wine already? if so no need to waste your time".
Still, there's the fact that some ports are so shitty that the game works better in Wine. I would rather have a wine layer (like winebottler) for all games.. and then if required for some games complain to the developers about the performance and/or bugs under wine (if there are). This would probably also incentive contribution to free software, while changes in a privative game are not gonna be released to the public, wine changes and improvements will.
It would also boost the Steam OS selection of games considerably.
I've never understood why Mac versions of Office are at all different. I guess they make it more complicated than it needs to be and the market is to small to change that.
Office 2010 has a gold rating on WineHQ. Winebottler might work.
You can install windows steam in Wine and it works fine. You can even play windows games in it if it's not too demanding a game!
You can then find the appropriate folder for the game inside the steamapps folder where you designated Wine to install onto the hard drive, and copy it to the same place on the windows pc.
Macs if needed can run windows os or even windows applications. If you're a programmer: It's linux/unix under the hood so that's fun to dick around with, you can also code in swift. It also grows your AIE (apple integrated enviorment) meaning you're iPhone, iPad, Apple TV all sink up. and the OS is free and gorgous, updates are free. and you get unlimited genius bar support so if it begins to derp. you can just go to them and they will fix it, 9/10 times.
You wouldn't lose the ability to use those apps. You can install them via AppSync. If you actually want to jailbreak I would backup, restore to factory, restore backup, and jailbreak with Pangu using Winebottler (lets you run windows programs on mac) as soon as possible. It would be better to ensure a successful jailbreak than wait until iOS 8.1.1 comes out and then have it fail somehow.
Get WINE
Get MSE
Run the MSE installer, when prompted choose to run the install directly in WINE, rather than wrapping it into a .app package.
Go through the steps to install MSE, then click run. You'll be given an error message, and it can be a little temperamental (until I downloaded the mose recent version of wine, I couldn't use any of the contextual message), but it'll run.
You can run MSE whenever you want after you install it by starting up wine, clicking the little wine glass icon on the upper right hand side of your screen, going to File Manager, and navigating to MSE.exe in the browser.
All the files that you have running in wine are stored in a "Wine Files" directory, which should be in your home folder. If you want to install something like the Cockatrice Exporter you can open this folder and just follow the instructions in that link.
You can install templates just by running them in wine, either by dragging them into the wine files directory, or just opening them with wine.
It works, but it's a little rough. Some of it might just be user error, and there's better ways to do it, but it's what I've got to work for me so far.
Clarification: "WineHQ" is the website for WINE (WINE Is Not an Emulator), a layer providing Windows software platform to non-Windows systems. There are a number of ways of using WINE. The easiest is to use the commercial implementation CrossOver, however it is not free. The next easiest is WineBottler, which is free but slightly more complicated.
Man, I wish I could help, but I run the game on Windows.
The newer the OS, the more trouble with older games. You could try running the game with some other VM like Virtual Box. You'd need a copy of Windows though.
Or try something like wineskin, http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/. I have no idea if that will work. Good luck!
