(only once ever) in the terminal and then to install XQuartz, just brew install xquartz
(It runs a script from the internet, so I won't copy it here so you at least know you're getting it from the source.) Once homebrew is installed, to add cask, just run brew tap homebrew/cask If you're just getting started with homebrew, install it by copying the terminal command in the first link above. And let's face it: Unless it's really easy, there's no way any of us will possibly keep git or curl or other things that don't self-update up-to-date, and for the sake of security we usually should. The advantage of homebrew is that it's a full-on package manager, so it not only makes it easy to install things all in one place, but also makes it easy to keep them updated. macOS Catalina and laterĬurrently only CrossOver-19 and later suppot 32Bit on 64Bit only versions of macOS.A quick way to install XQuartz is with homebrew via homebrew cask. CodeWeavers patched MoltenVK to fake unsupported extensions and a custom version of DXVK that's modified specifically for macOS. MoltenVK uses Metal meaning only wine64 has Vulkan support (currently wine32on64 doesn't support MoltenVK).ĬrossOver-20 and later include DXVK support, this provides DirectX10 and DirectX11 support. MoltenVK is Vulkan 1.1 compliant, but still missing additional extensions needed by DXVK. This usually happens when the game uses DirectX10 or above, the version of OpenGL included on macOS hasn't been updated in years so it's missing some needed extensions.

Now you will also have access to winetricks command within Terminal Why doesn't my game work on mac but Winehq says it does? Here is an example of using both commands to create a 32Bit only WINEPREFIX The default architecture of a WINEPREFIX will be 64Bit meaning 32Bit and 64Bit applications & games are supported but that's not always ideal for several reasons.Ī new WINEPREFIX can be created and also setting WINEARCH You can override this by using the WINEPREFIX command The default WINEPREFIX will be ~/.wine so anything you install will be placed into the hidden ~/.wine folder.
The above is the Winehq way to install wine on mac but that makes it cumbersome to use considering you must launch the Wine Stable, Wine Devel or Wine Staging app each time to get access to wine within Terminal Wine basics
If your intention is to have a more stable environment use wine-stableĬurrenty WIP macOS packages are not uploaded to Winehq, those can be downloaded from here Grab a wine package usually using the latest wine-devel is recommended, but most agree it's best to use the latest wine-staging due to additional patches.

How to manually install wine on mac using Winehq releases The -no-quarantine command is required as homebrew by default adds the quarantine flag to downloaded casks, this causes Gatekeeper to treat the bundle as damaged. Only a single wine package can be installed using brew The above command will install the most recent wine-staging pkg available on winehq but it will also add wine for use in Terminal meaning you no longer need to launch the installed Wine Staging app each time you want to access wine. Brew install -cask -no-quarantine wine-staging
