If you are not afraid to open up a terminal this is the recommended method. Non in particular other than a willingness to install 3rd party software.īasic setup Terminal-based method (Homebrew).The steps in this article has been verified to work with: Firstly a terminal-oriented approach, secondly a more GUI-oriented one. Below I will describe two different methods to get LFS up and running on OS X. I'm so sorry for asking such a stupid question and being so useless, but if someone can help out with an ELI5, this might help others like me, who google for the same issue.During my brief testing, LFS performed great on OS X.

It's the same Mac (same CPU) that ran the same game successfully a year ago though. The log of my test run always says: '/Applications/Pharaoh.app/Contents/Frameworks/wswine.bundle/bin/wine: line 2: /Applications/Pharaoh.app/Contents/Frameworks/wswine.bundle/bin/Pharaoh713973747Wine: Bad CPU type in executable' Is there any easy way to make it work by changing a few settings or do I just need to wait patiently for Wine to update? How can I receive such updates? When I click on 'Update Wrapper' in 'Tools', I get an error message 'There is an error with the installation of your master wrapper! Please update your Wrapper in Wineskin Winery! (A manual install of a wrapper for Wineskin Winery will work too)' but I'm not sure where to locate 'Wineskin Winery' and how to do this.

Unfortunately, the game still doesn't launch. I've placed the game into my applications folder, did the right click to 'Show all package contents' -> 'Wine' and in there I've followed the trouble-shooting provided on the site where I downloaded the game + wine, mind you this trouble-shooting addresses issues on High Sierra, not Catalina ( ). I saw a few references to Mac OS Catalina, that there is some issue where you'd have to change something in the terminal in Recovery Mode for Wine to work (not sure if it's a good idea for me to attempt that since I really don't know what I'm doing) or download other programs and (presumably) manually run the game through them, but I'm truly lost as I don't know how any of this works or what half of the responses mean. I've googled to a) identify the problem and to b) find a solution, but all my results are so technical that I just cannot understand any of them. Today I wanted to reinstall it, but it just doesn't launch. It worked fine on my Mac about a year ago, then I deleted the whole thing because I had no more time to play and didn't want to be tempted. The download consists of the whole package, Windows game + Wine and everything is already set up for useless people like me, who can't do it themselves. I downloaded everything on this website ( ). Unfortunately, I don't understand Wine and how it works, but I've been successfully using it to play Pharaoh by Sierra in the past.
