Run Windows-based Programs on a Mac
(Batman Arkham City in NOV) are some of the AAA games on the mac app store. Games such as GTA 4, GTA 5, Saints Row 3.etc can't be handled on Mac's due to Apple limit on internal specs. GTA IV was purchased as a disk and installed Via Parallels. Maybe in a couple of more months, years AAA games will be launched on OSX day 1 with Windows. Mods work on Mac and Linux too if you can run it. And the Mac version works like the windows version, it even has the same files and exe, only packed into an application and please, i used mods on my mac for like 6 years now, on the whole trilogy, asi, cleo all works, the only thing i havent got to work was SA:Render.

Cryptographic Update for WineBottler 4.0.1.1Turn Windows-based programs into Mac apps –
NOT. ;)
WineBottler packages Windows-based programs like browsers, media-players, games or business applications snugly into Mac app-bundles.Your company provides you with a login, mail, calendar and contacts that only work on certain browsers?
You quickly want to test your websites in Windows-based browsers.
You want to play games, that are not ported to OS X?
Your online trading platform or accounting tool only runs on Windows?
Your audio book player is not available on OS X?
No need to install emulators, virtualizers or boot into other operating systems – WineBottler runs your Windows-based programs directly on your Mac.
This is possible thanks to a Windows-compatible subsystem, which is provided by the great OpenSource tool Wine.
WineBottler does Automated Installations:
Select from a wide range of software for which WineBottler offers automated installations. It is as easy as hitting 'Install' – and WineBottler will leave you with a neat app on your desktop. WineBottler does not come with the programs themselves, but with scripts, that take care of downloading, configuring and installing everything into an app for you.WineBottler can pack your .exe into an Mac .app ...
Double-click your .exe or .msi and convert it into an app with WineBottler. You can run the generated app like every other program on your Mac. For advanced users, WineBottler gives you a selection of options: install special dependencies and even turn your .exe into a self-contained app - that is an app, that contains everything to run it... even on other Macs. Porting to OS X never was easier ;).Wineskin Mac 10.15
Find out more - have a look at the Documentation.... or just run that .exe.
You don't care about generating an app and just want to run it? Double-click the .exe, choose 'Run directly' and Wine will run it in a generic environment.Enjoy, it's free!
