Wine Won't Open A Game...

Post by Dare »

So there this game called pixel gun world i wanted to play on my mac. but when i created an account on the pixel gun website, i found out that it was for windows only for now. So i downloaded the exe installer and open the installer with wine. After about 1 minutes of the installation it open the launcher and it downloaded the updates pretty fine and open the game, The game ran really good. After 2 hours of game play i close the game and started to take a break. But then when i came back to my desktop and try to open the game back up with wine(The original file i try to open with wine is called:Pixel Gun World.desktop, by the way i've right clicked the file and click open with wine.)Nothing will show up.The launcher did not show up. Even an error screen did not show up! the game worked before but why won't open again? i just sat there on my desktop waiting for the game to boot up! Then i tried changing the file name to .exe instead of .desktop but that did not work either. I try looking up online if i can find help or if anyone else is having the same problem but i didn't really find what i needed..
If you can please help and thank you for helping me!

Go to the original place of instaltion. If you installed to application support go to the folder and run the main exe file of the game. The two files on desktop are shortcuts
