This contains the Wineskin Winery app, move this to the Applications folder if you wish, then in order to open you MUST right click on the app, then click Open, otherwise macOS will yell at you that “Wineskin Winery” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.Click and download the file, and then if it doesn’t automatically unzip, double click it to do so.
You’ll want to look for “Assets” under the most recent release, which at the time of this writing is 1.8.4 or 1.8.4.2 (pre-release).Under the WineskinServer Github project, go to Releases.(Wine is open source)ĮDIT: here's some QUICK instructions I typed up.
#SPORE MAC OS X EL CAPITAN HOW TO#
IDK if I should try making a video tutorial or just text post, but if anyone is interested and doesn't know how to get it working let me know.Īnother MUCH easier option is to use Crossover for Mac, however that does cost money, this option is free. It may be a bit technical, but if anyone has issues I can try to make a tutorial and post it (I made my app a while ago so I'd have to re-create it). I have Spore running great on my new M1 Mac mini, just using default settings for everything and installing Spore inside the WineSkin app it makes. SO if you have a copy of Spore for Windows, either through Steam, GoG, Retail Disc, etc, you can basically re-encapsulate the game in a new 64-bit container and it'll run! Maxis did their encapsulation so long ago so its still 32-bit. They used a version of Wine called Cider, but the reason you can't just run Spore on a modern Mac now is 32-bit executables are no longer compatible with macOS, and only 64-bit can run.
WineskinServer allows you to basically recreate the way that Maxis ported Spore over to Mac many moons ago. FYI for anyone who has a Mac that wants to play Spore again.
