1. Wineskin wrapper for the Mac! Hi fellow farmers! I, along with the wonderful community at the Stardew Valley forums, have been working hard to get Stardew Valley running on Wine. After some great successes by the community there, I was able to get everything wrapped up in Wineskin to allow us to easily run the game on Mac!
2. 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).
3. This little gem is quickly becoming my favorite way to use Wine on Mac OS X. Wineskin is simple, fast and it’s easy. Everything is put together for you in a nice tidy little package and it’s all self contained in an.app file. It also has advanced features, so if you want to use a custom compilation of Wine you can.

What is Wineskin?

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). Best of all, it’s free and does not require installation of the Windows OS!

More Information about Wineskin

While there is a lot to Wineskin, at its core it runs Windows™ software by using Wine (www.winehq.org), which is a re-implementation of the Win32 API for non-Windows™ operating systems.

Normal Wineskin Engine builds’ Wine versions are built from Wine source code from www.winehq.org

Wineskin Download For Mac

Crossover Engine builds are built from the Wine source code used in the Crossover.

Crossover is a wonderful product by Codeweavers

Wineskin Engines use WineskinX11, a custom version of X11 (required by Wine) made from XQuartz, which is an x.org based X11 server. It does not use Apple's X11.app. You can have it use XQuartz.app instead of WineskinX11 if you so choose. Wine versions from around 1.5.26+ have a Wine Mac driver that can also be used instead of needing X11.

Wineskin Mac Os Catalina

All original content anywhere here on urgesoftware.com belongs to Urge Software or Wineskin, please ask permission for use.

This guide will walk you through how to install Technocoder’s Wineskin with macOS 10.15 Catalina support. It should also work on all other modern versions of macOS too.

Warning

This section only applies to users who are using macOS Catalina 10.15.0 to 10.15.4

If you do not use macOS Catalina, or you are on macOS Catalina 10.15.5 or later, you can skip this section!

If you don’t know what specific macOS version you’re using, use this Apple support article to learn how to find out.

Apple recently introduced changes to how macOS works. New Macs come with System Integrity Protection.

Therefore, in order to run osu!mac on macOS Catalina 10.15.0 to 10.15.4 you need to disable System Integrity Protection.

Danger

While disabling System Integrity Protection shouldn’t harm your computer directly, you are sorta compromising the integrity of your system (hence the name ‘System Integrity Protection’).

Please be informed about the risks of disabling SIP. Consider updating your macOS instead.

You can learn more about SIP in this Apple support article.

These instructions are quoted from the Apple Developer documentation.

To disable SIP, do the following:

1. Restart your computer in Recovery mode.

   • Turn on your Mac and immediately press and hold these two keys: Command (⌘) and R.

   • Release the keys when you see an Apple logo, spinning globe or other startup screen.

   • You may be prompted to enter a password, such as a firmware password or the password of a user who is an administrator of this Mac. Enter the requested password to continue.

2. Launch Terminal from the Utilities menu. It should be in the menu bar at the top of your screen.

3. Run the command csrutildisable.

4. Restart your computer. You can do so from the top menu bar (just like you would normally)

Once you have SIP disabled, you’re now set to start getting ready with osu!.

Warning

A newer Wineskin with support for M1 Macs (under Rosetta 2), as well as Intel x86 computers (on any modern macOS version) is now available. It brings new stability updates and bug fixes, and we’d encourage updating to this newer version.

You’ll need to use this new version if you want to play on any Apple Silicon computer.

Step 1: Download the Wineskin¶

Download the osu! Wineskin from Technocoder:

• osu! forum thread:community/forums/posts/7560723

• mega.nz direct download (468.1M):https://mega.nz/file/…

Note

To play osu! on macOS a compatibility layer called Wine is used. A Wineskin allows a preconfigured version of Wine to be bundled as one app so that you can get right into the game without messing about with the settings.

Once it has downloaded, extract the .zip file.

Move it outside of your Downloads folder, such as your Desktop. This is really important, as not doing so could lead osu! to be sandboxed.

We also recommend downloading Technocoder’s osu!macOS Agent program, since it’ll be used throughout this guide. In general, it’s a great tool that every macOS osu-stable player on Wine should have. However, this is optional (though strongly encouraged) and alternative instructions are provided for those who are comfortable with digging deeper.

• osu! forum thread:community/forums/topics/1036678

• GitHub download link (7.61MB):Techno-coder/osu-macOS-Agent…

Warning

On 12 October 2020 a bug was introduced with an update for osu!macOS Agent. It caused Wineskin.app to display a error that left the settings menu unopenable. You’ll need to download the newest version of osu!macOS Agent, which was updated on 23 January 2021. See Wineskin.app doesn’t open, even if osu! does / exec[number].bat problem.

Step 2: Repair the Wineskin¶

If you try to open the Wineskin immediately, macOS will say that it’s broken. Let’s fix that.

1. Open osu!macOS Agent

2. Click the Troubleshoot tab

3. Click Scan

4. Once the scan is complete, click Repair

If it was successful, you should see a Fixed indicator next to Quarantineattributeispresent in the log.

On the bleeding edge? You can also use the Terminal to repair your Wineskin.

1. Open Terminal. It should be in your Applications/Utilities folder.

2. Type the following command.

where ~/path/to/my/osu!.app is the filepath to your osu! install.

For example: if my osu!.app was in the Desktop, the command to enter would be:

Below are some helpful tips if you’re a bit lost, but if you know what you’re doing feel free to skim over them.

Note

For an application with the name osu!.app, the ! will confuse the Terminal window. Therefore, you must escape it by prefixing the ! with a (backslash) to form osu!.app. It is also recommended you enclose the filepath in quotation marks.

Note

You may be asked for your password. While entering your password the cursor might blink but you won’t see any characters appear on the screen - this is normal! Just proceed to type your password as if there was a dialog box there, and hit Enter once you’re done. (If you stuffed it up you’ll get another chance to retype it.)

Tip

If you get a Permissiondenied error it means you aren’t using an administrator account. In your Terminal window, type:

Wineskin Winery 1.7

where administrator is the name of your system’s admin account. When the Password: prompt appears, enter your password for administrator (or whatever your admin account is). Then try running the Terminal command (or to do this automatically, type sudo!!).

If you don’t know which account is your admin account (like if you use a family computer), go to the Applemenu (top-left corner of the screen) > SystemPreferences... > Users&Groups and you should be able to see which account is your administrator account. You’ll still need the password to execute the command though.

Note

On older macOS versions, you may get a warning that reads this.

Improper use of the sudo command could lead to data loss or the deletion of important system files. Please double-check your typing when using sudo. Type “man sudo” for more information. To proceed, enter your password, or type Ctrl-C to abort.

Type your password as normal, as shown above.

Tip

Having trouble finding the filepath of your osu! installation? You can drag and drop the file from your installation directory (or the Desktop) to get the path!

Danger

Unless you do something incredibly stupid, you probably won’t completely stuff your computer. That being said, if you do something incredibly stupid, you’ll stuff your computer. The sudo command allows your local user account to perform otherwise restricted actions, so please don’t go around typing random things if something’s not working - ask us a question instead!

Step 3: Updating osu!¶

At this point, you should have already repaired osu! and now you’re set to open it. In some cases, this will work perfectly, but for most people including myself, osu! will be stuck in an update loop. It can even be difficult to kill the process once it starts updating.

Tip

If you ever have trouble closing osu! once it’s stuck in an update loop, see Common issues: osu! won’t close.

Note

Does osu! appear to be running fine? If you’re not stuck in an update loop, then you can easily skip this section.

1. Open osu!macOS Agent

2. Click the Other tab

3. Click Update osu!

This will download the latest executable from the osu! servers and replace the existing osu!.exe inside your Wineskin wrapper.

Wineskin Winery Mac Download

If you’re brave enough to go it alone, these steps will get you the latest version of osu! running - avoiding the possibility of an update loop.

Download Wineskin Engine

1. Download osu.exe from osu.ppy.sh/home/download.

2. Locate where osu!.app (your Wineskin) is installed

3. Right click on it and select ShowPackageContents

4. You should now see three files/folders: Contents, drive_c and Wineskin. Click drive_c.

5. From here, click osu!.

6. From here, locate osu!.exe and replace this file with the updated version that you just downloaded. Make sure you keep the filename the same.

Step 4: Run osu!¶

Now everything should be good to go! Click osu!.app in whichever directory you placed it in and try it out for a spin!
