Wineskin For Mac Applications

WineBottler packages Windows-based programs snugly into OS X app-bundles. No need to install emulators or operating systems - WineBottler uses the great open-source tool Wine to run the binaries on your Mac. Wineskin is a tool used to make ports of Windows software to Mac OS X. The ports are in the form of normal Mac application bundle wrappers. It works like a wrapper around the Windows software, and you can share just the wrappers if you choose. Best of all, its free!

  1. Wineskin is a tool used to make ports of Windows software to Mac OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard (or later). The ports are in the form of normal Mac application bundle wrappers. It works like a wrapper around the Windows software, and you can share just the wrappers if you choose (that is the strategy used here).
  2. WINESKIN MIRROR Prerequisites: OSX version must be greater than 10.8. OpenGL must be greater than 4.0. Specs for each Mac can be found here Steps: Unzip the Wineskin in a folder besides the /Applications/ folder. Drag the Wineskin to the /Applications/ folder. Yes, this is necessary. Right click the Wineskin wrapper (MTGArena.app) and select.


Winetricks is wine's override of the actual software like Direct X 9 to Windows Media player Codecs. To install a winetrick you'll need to download it first from the main Winetrick window. Once all of your selected winetricks are done you now can install your software inside your wrapper.

First of all: Wine (just plain wine) is NOT available for Mac, so that leave you with Wineskin, WineBottler, PlayOnMac, or CrossOver.


Wineskin and WineBottler are intended for creating wrappers, which is basically converting it to a Mac application.

Mac


Wineskin gives you more customization over your wrapper.


WineBottler also comes with a system that lets you just run any exe on mac just like that.


PlayOnMac lets you download and run supported apps easily, but isn't good for just any exe.

CrossOver is paid software.


If all you want to do is run exes with right-click>Open With, than install WineBottler.
