Disclosure: These instructions are provided as-is. I don't take any responsibility for things that might go wrong (though the worst thing that could happen should be that OCTGN just won't run). I don't have time to support you if things don't work, unfortunately. But hopefully you'll get OCTGN running without needing to use a virtual machine like Parallels or VirtualBox.
Statements like these
are commands to be run in the terminal. You should be fine just copying and pasting, just don't miss any characters.
- Download OCTGN: http://octgn.net/Home/GetOctgn
- Launch Terminal.app
- Install Homebrew (a package manager for OS X)
/usr/bin/ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"
- Install git
brew install git
- If asked to install Command Line Tools, klick yes. Else
xcode-select --install
- Install XQuarts
brew cask install xquartz
- Install wine
brew install --devel wine
- Install winetricks
brew install winetricks
- Configure wine.
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-octgn winecfg
Do not install Mono! Set windows version to 8 in the configuration window. - Install OCTGN dependencies
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-octgn winetricks -q vcrun2010 dotnet45
- Re-configure wine, set windows version to 8.
WINEARCH=win32 WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-octgn winecfg
- Install OCTGN (fingers crossed)
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-octgn wine PATH-TO-OCTGN-INSTALL.exe
(NOTE: Replace PATH-TO-OCTGN-INSTALL.exe with the full path to your downloaded OCTGN installer). Choose yes on following prompts. Make sure "Run OCTGN" is selected. If you see flickering artifacts, just close the application – it should be fine when you run it next time. - Launch OCTGN with
WINEPREFIX=~/.wine-octgn wine ~/Documents/OCTGN/OCTGN/OCTGN.exe
. This is how you launch OCTGN from now on, but I've created a small applescript that you can download here that makes it easier to launch: http://goo.gl/oo2iRI. Download and unzip, and double-click. If you followed the instructions it should launch OCTGN.
Hello, I was trying to install it, but at step 7 i got:
MBPdeFernando2:~ Fernando$ brew install --devel wine
Error: No devel block is defined for wine
MBPdeFernando2:~ Fernando$
What am I doing wrong?
