| ▲ | mahboi a day ago | parent [-] | | KegWorks is deprecated in favor of Sikarugir. Maybe that works, but every time I've used some kind of Wine wrapper that people say works with Steam, it doesn't, or it kinda works with some workarounds until the next Steam update. I've used all the older stuff like WineBottler, PlayOnMac, Whisky, Wineskin, and probably others I'm forgetting. Usually no meaningful difference vs using GamePortingToolkit or Wine directly, but PlayOnMac has that 32on64 option that's important for modern Macs. Have even taken Cider ports and dropped exes inside. The one exception is Crossover, which has been around very long and costs money. Probably worthwhile if you care for this. | | |
| ▲ | ofrzeta 11 hours ago | parent [-] | | Incidentally I was just testing Crossover on Mac with mixed results. Totally random sample: Civ3 worked fine (after some fix to the startup in an INI file), HL1 random crashes although playable, Locomotion needed a workaround (dxwnd) to run windowed, Chants of Senaar ran fine. | | |
| ▲ | mahboi 8 hours ago | parent [-] | | That's not surprising, as Proton is hit-or-miss too. But Crossover will at least run Steam, right? | | |

| ▲ | mahboi 8 hours ago | parent [-] | | It's a fork, unlike these wrappers that are literally Wine. There are games that work in Proton but not in Wine, or work better in Proton. |
