Wineskin Mac Fix

You can read this in the FAQ:

Can Wineskin work with Catalina? Azuon with Wineskin on MacOS 10.13? Levelator working with Catalina? Bundling Java applications for Mac OS X Catalina. How to join call using “Skype for Business Web App” on macOS Catalina? Softwareupdate tool — oddities with macOS Catalina.

Wineskin is handy for running the GOG installer which is a Windows app but now you need something else called Boxer to finish setting up the games to run on your Mac. Get it here where you will also find instructions for using it. I have a.net application which now works perfectly when i have installed.net 4 on my Wine instance (Mac OS X). Now my challenge is to wrap the Instance and give it to the customer. The easiest way to do this is by creating a Wineskin instance and running all the required tricks and attaching the executables with that instance. Discuss the topic 'Installing the v1 exe for wineskin on a mac 10.9' in the Armada 3 General Discussion Star Trek: Armada III Forums.

8.3 Does Wine support DirectX? Should I install Microsoft's DirectX under Wine?

Wine itself provides a DirectX implementation that, although it has a few bugs left, should run fine. Wine supports DirectX 9.0c at this time. Work on DirectX 10 is underway.

If you attempt to install Microsoft's DirectX, you will run into problems. It is not recommended nor supported by Wine HQ to attempt this. You can install the runtime, but it will not run. The runtime needs access to the Windows drivers, and Wine cannot access them for obvious reasons. The only native Microsoft DLLs that could be useful anyway are the d3dx9_xx.dll type ones, and these require you to accept Microsoft's license. Additionally, versions of these DLLs are now part of the Wine tree. So, as Wine improves these DLLs will only become less relevant.

That said, there are some guides out there which describe how you can install Microsoft's DirectX. We reiterate: it is not recommended nor supported by Wine HQ to attempt this. Furthermore it is considered off topic in Wine HQ support mediums (such as the forums). Please use a clean Wine configuration folder before seeking help (delete your ~/.wine or use another wineprefix and re-install your Windows applications).


Try to uninstall/ Install fresh Wineskin app:


How do I completely uninstall Wineskin and related materials?


If you just have a wrapper/port made by someone else that uses Wineskin, you just delete the application like any other, nothing special needs to be done.


Fix

If you are using Wineskin Winery to create wrappers...


Everything stored from Wineskin Winery is in the following location (~ means your Home folder)

~/Library/Application Support/Wineskin

Wineskin Mac Fix Disk

you can remove that whole folder.


All wrappers are exported to

Mac

~/Applications/Wineskin

you can remove that whole folder, but be sure if you want to keep any of your apps you move them out, they will still work fine without Wineskin Winery or anything else still installed.


Remove Wineskin Winery.app in Applications or where ever you put it.


If you used a wrapper that had an ICE version of an engine in it, it is stored locally in ~/Library/Application Support/Wineskin/Engines/ICE so you may want to remove that too.
