I'm trying to run 64-bit Wine and a 64-bit Windows app on macOS 10.15.1 Catalina. I have installed Wine Development 4.19 from .pkg including the optional 64-bit support, however the app won't launch from the Applications folder. About This Mac -> System Report shows that Wine Devel is a 32-bit app. How can I launch the 64-bit version of Wine considering that I also installed the optional 64-bit support?
I tried the solution given in this post but it didn't work for me (probably partly due to the reason mentioned above).
Thanks
Run 64-bit Wine in Catalina
Re: Run 64-bit Wine in Catalina
The app bundles launcher is 32Bit.
You would be better using the a portable version.
You require libfreetype and libpng15 to run wine/wine64
Download a portable release, unpack somewhere within “~/“ add the /wine_unpackaged_name/bin (this folder contains wine, wine64 etc) to PATH
Then you can launch wine64 from a terminal session.

Re: Run 64-bit Wine in Catalina
Thanks Gcenx. I thought I'd post on here instead of the other threads. I have managed to get wine64 to run a 64 bit Windows app, but the icons are a bit blurry again.
1) I reinstalled Wine Development and XQuartz using Homebrew this time, as you suggested:
2) I edited wine64 regedit with the settings that you outlined in these two threads - Crossover settings in Wine and wine cfg issues. The settings I edited can be seen in the two screenshots just below.
3) I am running a script in to launch the app as originally outlined in this thread (also mentioned above) - wine cfg issues. The script has been modified to launch wine64:
4) I think the icons are blurry because I don't have 64 bit versions of libfreetype.6.dylib and libpng15.15.dylib as you outlined here:
Thanks!!!

set toRun to "$HOME/Documents/Trading/Sierra Chart/SierraChart_64.exe"
--edit winePrefix if you are not using the default prefix
set winePrefix to "$HOME/.wine"
--edit wineLocation if your wine install is not the default location
--set wineLocation to "/usr/local/bin"
set wineLocation to "/Applications/Wine Devel.app/Contents/Resources/wine/bin"
--edit dyldFallbackLibraryPath to your X11 lib folder, this one is set for XQuartz on 10.6+
set dyldFallbackLibraryPath to "/opt/X11/lib"
--Setting freetype rendering to 35 fixes blurred fonts when using newer freetype versions
set freetypefix to "truetype:interpreter-version=35"
-------------------------------------------------------
--DO NOT EDIT ANYTHING BELOW THIS LINE

set toRunPath to do shell script "WINEPREFIX=\"" & winePrefix & "\"; TEMPVAR=\"" & toRun & "\"; echo \"${TEMPVAR%/*}\""
set toRunFile to do shell script "WINEPREFIX=\"" & winePrefix & "\"; TEMPVAR=\"" & toRun & "\"; TEMPVAR2=\"" & toRunPath & "\"; echo \"${TEMPVAR#$TEMPVAR2/}\""

If this is the problem where do I find them?

Re: Run 64-bit Wine in Catalina
Honestly I can’t tell from the screenshots it looks normal to me? Maybe it because I’m on my phone.
By install XQuartz you have universal (32Bit & 64Bit) versions of libfreetype & libpng15 so that’s not an issue.
I’d mentioned the need for 64Bit versions incase you wanted to just get the two needed dylibs over installing XQuartz.
