WineBott. + Winetricks.

[Nanana]

Hey, I just download WineBottler and now am trying to download winetricks on my Mac OS X 10.6.8 version. I went on the website for winetricks and saved the text. It was set to be named as winetricks.txt and so I left it as that and saved it and dragged it onto my desktop. I tried to follow the next steps but was heavily baffled. I'm sorta new to using Mac and am not exactly aware of any shortcuts either. Could anyone help me by allocating the steps after I get winetricks.txt? (Remember, I got WineBott.)

If you want to get help here, you have to remove WineBottler and use just plain Wine.

In Linux, you can run winetricks by using command like "sh winetricks.txt" or "chmod +x winetricks.txt; ./winetricks.txt". I do not know if this is true for Mac too or not. By the way, you can safely remove unnecessary extension ".txt" from the file you downloaded.

But why do you want to run winetricks? What's the actual problem you are trying to fix?

I'm trying to run a game that might require DDL support and of course, is a .exe file. The game to be exact can be found here: www.pmuniverse.net and is a pokemon fan-game based on the mystery dungeon series. Pretty much trying to get that to work on my Mac but no luck at all so far.

You need to be more specific. What exactly does not work? Installing? The game itself? What Wine version you are using (make sure it's 1.5.10 or 1.5.9)? I recommend you start with clean Wine prefix, then run "sh winetricks dotnet40 gdiplus" (may be "sh winetricks.txt" in your case; make sure you have it in current directory). Then try installing your game. When installing or trying to run the game, make sure to record terminal output (read FAQ if you do not know how) in case you encounter problems. If you do, post it here (or in PasteBin if it's too long) and describe your problem(s) exactly.
