Super Blue Blood Moon happened and everyone came to get these files and Dropbox has temporarily suspended my links. Oh no!
The configuring section of your wrapper contains what is needed to make it like a Mac Game like EXE Flags - what command line keywords that needs to run like -windowed (for window mode) and so on Version - what is the version of your wrapper? (I prefer you use the version number of the game's release for this) Menubar name - It will display the name of the App in the application menu icon - A. Wineskin is a user-friendly tool used to make ports of Microsoft Windows software to Apple's macOS/Mac OS X. How Does It Work? As described in the original Wineskin's website. The ports are in the form of normal macOS application bundle wrappers. It works like a wrapper around the Windows software, and you can share just the wrappers if you choose.
The instructions below for creating your own wineskin packages will still work. In the meantime I’ll work on getting my prebuilt wineskin package links back up.

Many pieces of software used for astronomy do not have equivalents that can be used by those of us running OSX on macintosh computers. I have made a few wineskin wrapped versions of the software that I am currently using and I have made them available here for you.
You must first download Wineskin Winery and install it.
You can then wrap Software such as Registax and AutoStakkert so that they will run almost seamlessly in OSX. If you want to skip this step, you still need to install wineskin winery, but you can use the wineskin wrapped versions of Registax and AutoStakkert that I’ve prepared below. They are currently running without issue on OSX 10.10.
Download Registax 6.1.0.8 packaged in Wine for OSX.
Download AutoStakkert 2.3.0.21 packaged in Wine for OSX. This wrapper has the windows ffmpeg executables already installed that will allow you to import .mov files without having to transcode them.
Enjoy!
If you want to run Wavosaur audio editor on MAC OS X, it’s now possible : with Wineskin, one can do a wrapper that handle a Windows software into a Mac app.
And we have done it for you !
Download Wavosaur 1.1.0.0 for MAC OS X
Wineskin Winery Mac
=> Wavosaur for MAC OS X <=
It has been tested and works for :
- OS X 10.6 Snow Leopard
- OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion
VST plugins are working : just be sure to use the Windows dll version (not the Mac version)
Download the ready-to-use Mac app or follow this guide for building a Wavosaur application for MAC :
How to build a Mac app from the Wavosaur windows executable with Wineskin
Wineskin is a free tool able to build a MAC port for Windows application : http://wineskin.urgesoftware.com.

How To Use Wineskin Mac
4) unzip and launch Wineskin Winery app
Wineskin Winery app
If there are no packages / wrappers, just use the “update” button and “+” button to add engine from the Web. You may need to restart the app to make the engine appears in the list.
5) click “Create New Blank Wrapper”
Enter the name for the Mac program : “Wavosaur” is a good choice !
6) if you get some windows asking you for installing .NET support or Gecko support, just click “cancel”, Wavosaur doesn’t need .NET framework in order to run. It just needs a dll file, we’ll add it on step 10)
not .net
7) After some time, you should get the window as seen below :
click “View wrapper in Finder”
then close the Wineskin Winery App
8) right click on Wavosaur.app and select “Show Package Contents”, you should see a folder, a shortcut and a Wineskin.app
Wavosaur on Maaac !
9) open drive_c /ProgramFiles and copy Wavosaur.exe into it
10) open drive_c /Windows/System32 and copy MFC42.dll into it
11) launch Wineskin.app, and select “Advanded”
12) click on “browse” for the Window EXE and select Wavosaur.exe from the “drive_c/Program Files”. You can also set an icon if you want => Wavosaur Mac icon
Wineskin Download Mac
Set Wavosaur
Wineskin Mac Os Catalina
At this time you can Test Run : it works ! If not, you can see an error log.
Wineskin Mac 10.15
13) close the Wineskin.app, now you can use Wavosaur.app by double clicking on it, like any Mac application.
Copy Wavosaur.app anywhere you want (/Applications sounds like a good place).
