Navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> Wine -> Mac Driver (if Mac Driver doesn't exist, navigate to HKEY_CURRENT_USER -> Software -> Wine and then use Edit -> New -> Key to create a new key named Mac Driver).In Wineskin, click "Advanced" and then select "Tools".You can now click "Quit" and start playing MTGA! If you'd like to add Retina support, carry on. Select "MTGA.exe" and not the "MTGAInstaller" msi file. Back in Wineskin, a "Choose Executable" window should be available.So, either manually close Wine in the macOS menu bar or force quit Wine. Note: The installer never successfully closes for me.
Unofficial wineskin install#
Wait for MTGA to install and ignore any warnings (hopefully you won't have any!).(You can actually read the text with the new installer!) To install, click the lower right rectangle and, on the next screen, click the "Accept and Install" button. For some reason, the text is broken for the installation prompts (it's fine in game!).Navigate to and select the Magic the Gathering Arena Windows executable you previously downloaded.If you complete installation of MTGA and are getting DirectX 11 errors, come back to this step and give these toggles a try. Note: If you have a newer Mac, you may need to click "Screen Options" and then uncheck "Auto Detect GPU Info for Direct3D" and check "Use Mac Driver instead of X11". Right click/Control click the Wineskin wrapper (MTGArena.app) and select "Open".Drag the custom Wineskin wrapper to your /Applications/ folder.If Wineskin ever gets around to updating, you can get the official download here. Unfortunately, the Wineskin project is way behind and only supports Wine 2.x. Note: If you're like me, you may not trust unofficial Wineskin wrappers. You must download a custom Wineskin wrapper.You must download the Magic the Gathering Arena Windows executable.Your Mac must support OpenGL 4.0 or greater (you can find out whether it does here).Your macOS/OS X version must be 10.8 or greater.I haven't tested this yet, so let me know how it goes!Īs of July 25, 2019, this method no longer works. WOTC just released a new executable that should work with these original directions. At this time, the best way to play Arena on Mac is via Boot Camp or GeForce Now. A few people with Macs using Nvidia graphics cards are having success, but Macs with Intel and AMD GPUs crash regularly. It appears that the workarounds no longer work.
Unofficial wineskin update#
I'll update this Gist with 64-bit versions when they become available. IMPORTANT UPDATE: This will no longer work if you upgrade to macOS Catalina, as Wine and Wineskin are 32-bit.
Unofficial wineskin how to#
I modified uhohohdear's instructions and then added support for Retina/HiDPI displays and instructions about how to update MTGA. The following instructions are heavily inspired by /u/uhohohdear. Installing MTGA on macOS using Wine, and making it look pretty!
