Instead, just install the game, then run OpenRCT2 instead.įor every mac user who bought RCT2 on Steam, this is what you want. I wouldn't recommend running Vanilla RCT2 using Wine, since all programs need some optimization first. Basically, the program will think it is running on Windows, but Wine is actually tricking it that way. If you don't know already, Wine is a software that makes a Windows friendly-ecosystem for the program you are wanting to install. This is essentially the same 'Wine' method being used. Since you are wanting to install it through steam, you could check this link:
Another way could be by using Wine to install the game, then the same folder redirecting business. Of course, there are more ways, like running a Virtual Machine of sorts on the Mac and install RCT2 within this VM, and then directing OpenRCT2 to the installation folder. Then, run OpenRCT2 on the Mac and when the program asks for the game folder, you direct it to the folder you transferred earlier. The easiest way this works is you need a Windows running machine first, install the game on it, then copy that installed folder onto your Mac.
