In short, \"**W**INE **I**s **N**ot an **E**mulator\".\n\n### Wineskin\n\nWhat is [Wineskin](https://sourceforge.net/projects/wineskin/)? In short, it is a standalone WINE wrapper.\n\n#### Wineskin Winery\n\nWhat is [Wineskin Winery](http://wineskin.urgesoftware.com/tiki-index.php)? In short, it is a Wineskin (standalone WINE wrapper) generator.\n\n_P.s.: keep in mind the original branch of the project development has been very infrequently updated._\n_A recent fork with more active development can be found at [vitor251093/wineskin](https://github.com/vitor251093/wineskin)._\n\n### Other options\n\nPortingKit, WineBottler, GameOnMac, CrossOver, and eventually others.\n\n[PortingTeam](http://portingteam.com/) and [PaulTheTall](https://www.paulthetall.com/) usually have ready-to-use wrappers for many games and applications.\n\n## How to make a WINE engine available to Wineskin Winery from a compiled tarball\n\n### Usage\n\nYou can use this to build OS X 10.8+ compatible 64bit engines that also work with 32bit apps. (Vanilla \u0026 Staging)\nThis is also a faster method to build 32bit Vanilla or Staging engines.\n\n### Step-by-step guide\n\n*Disclaimer: you may want to back things up before going ahead.*\n\n1. Download the desired tarball at the [WINE builds website](https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/macosx/download.html). Do not unpack it.\n2. Open terminal\n3. Use the `cd` command to browse to the the folder where you put the Tarball (example: `cd Downloads/`)\n4. Type in this command `tar xf XXXX.tar.gz` (replace XXXX with the name of the Tarball), this will extract a folder called `usr`\n5. Type `touch version` to create an empty file without extension called `version`\n6. Type `nano version`to open the nano text editor.\n7. Type in the open file the name that you want to call your engine (example: `WS9Wine64bitStaging2.10-3`), save the file (Ctrl+O) and quit nano (Ctrl+X)\n8. Type `mv version usr/version` to put the file inside the `usr` folder that was previously created\n9. Type `mv usr/ wswine.bundle` to rename the `usr` folder as a `wswine.bundle` \"file\"\n10. Type `tar cf - wswine.bundle | ~/Library/Application\\ Support/Wineskin/7za a -si NAMEOFYOURENGINE.tar.7z` (Replace `NAMEOFYOURENGINE` with the name inside of the version file)\n11. Move the newly created `.tar.7z` file inside `~/Library/Application Support/Wineskin/Engines`\n\nCredits to [Brainzyy from PortingKit](http://portingkit.com/smf/index.php?topic=290.0)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmarnovo%2Fwine-tools","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fmarnovo%2Fwine-tools","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fmarnovo%2Fwine-tools/lists"}
