How To Play A Game On Steam On A Mac For Windows

You might have already seen guide to playing Windows Steam games on Mac,. This is not that guide.

This is basically Steam for Windows that is used specifically on Mac. Download the zip file, Drag the zip file onto your Desktop, unzip the file, and you should be presented with the Steam for Windows application.

This method will allow you to play Windows-only Steam games on your iMac as if they were Mac games, with no difference in performance at all. Here's how it works: First, download [shareplace.com] (no malware, I promise), and [wineskin.urgesoftware.com] (no malware there either, I promise).

Note that the steam.exe installer may not work, as it did not work for me, but the.msi installer that I uploaded worked for me. Next, unzip the downloaded.zip file, and open up Wineskin Winery. The window that opens should have a list of engines for download.

Download and install the latest one (no admin password required). Once you have done this, click 'Create New Blank Wrapper'. Name the file 'Steam' (Wineskin will include the.app extension for you). Give it some time to build the app.

You should find a 'Wineskin' folder in the folder that you put Wineskin Winery in. Inside the Wineskin folder, you'll find 'Steam.app'.

Right click it and select 'Show Contents'. A finder window will pop up with a 'Contents' folder. Double click that, then double click the item labeled 'Wineskin.app'. Inside will be a window with a button that says 'Install Software'. Click that button, then select 'Choose Setup Executable'. In the Finder window that pops up, select 'SteamInstall.msi', the file that you downloaded from me.

The Steam installation wizard will pop up, and lead you through the install process. This may take a while, so sit tight. Even when it looks like it's not doing anything (for example, 0% progress after a full minute), it's doing something. Once the Steam installation completes, a dialog box may come up that says 'No executable was found.' , and a dropdown list of executables in the wrapper. Select 'Steam.exe'. Now you can exit Wineskin.

Once it's done, you can now download and install Windows Steam games and play them all you want! I'd recommend using the Mac Steam client to buy games, and the Wineskin Steam client to download and play the Windows games. In case your game acts weird, reopen Wineskin.app under the Steam app contents and try changing these settings: - Go to Advanced Settings, then Tools, then Config Utility. At the bottom of the window that opens up, you'll see a list of Windows operating systems you can emulate.

Change these around until you find one that suits you. - Go to Advanced Settings, then Options. Change any one of these. They all change certain things, which can be undone easily. - Go to Advanced Settings, then Screen Options. If your mouse is acting weird while playing a game, like Call of Duty: World at War did for me, try changing the setting to 'Override', and select 'Rootless' or 'Fullscreen'. You'll have to use the keyboard shortcut Command-Q to exit the fullscreen virtual desktop, though.

And that's it! Have fun, and reply to this post if you have comments or concerns.
