  • Steam won´t install via Wine

  • Running Windows Programs on Mac (Wineskin)
    1 project | /r/mac | 29 Nov 2023
    I used Wineskin to port them both to MacOS and the https://www.pcmag.com/how-to/how-to-run-windows-apps-on-your-mac web page as a guide. I just used a regular windows .ico file to change the icon in the guide. Somehow converting the .ico as it is stated in the guide did not work for me. You can download Wineskin Winery from (https://github.com/Gcenx/WineskinServer) and use manual installation. They both needed .NET framework. That was easy with the Winetricks to find the .NET frameworks under DLL section and then run them. 1st program needed to access network shares in the domain but the link was in windows format (\\ServerName\ShareName\Folder).

    Can anyone demonstrate to me how to fix the slo-mo issue in Horizon: Zero Dawn that slows down the game speed. I am aware of the GitHub article here: https://github.com/Gcenx/WineskinServer/issues/424 although I am unaware of how to perform the registry tasks that is required to fix the issue.

  • Any way to run .exe files on Mac?
    1 project | /r/mac | 28 Jun 2023
    I use this wrapper for WINE. That it "doesn't seem to work" when you use what you've installed from the command line doesn't tell us much. What did you do after installing it? What happened?
  • Error while trying to install Crossover on Mac
    1 project | /r/macgaming | 28 Jun 2023
    I believe your issues might be because crossover is not supported on sonoma yet, its probably because sonoma is still in beta and so not much aplications can run on it, i found that wineskin server (https://github.com/Gcenx/WineskinServer) works pretty nicely on sonoma so maybe try that.
  • Use D3DMetal on Wine 8.10 Staging
    2 projects | /r/macgaming | 28 Jun 2023
    Hi, I followed this guide of u/Gcenx https://github.com/Gcenx/WineskinServer/issues/420 and applied on wine 8.10 staging (this version https://github.com/Gcenx/macOS_Wine_builds/releases/tag/8.10) but it seems like it doesn't work I always get a stub error. My question is: I need to do something else or D3DMetal simply doesn't work on newer wine version
