NWN2 with Mac High Sierra + Wine App

Unread post by sir_blacksoutalot »

Are there any Mac users out there currently running NWN2 through a wineskin program in the new OS High Sierra?

I'm currently using Crossover to run PC games. It's a form of the various wine wrapper apps. It works well, but also seems to take the developer time to catch up with OS changes, especially for older games like NWN2. So I'm not confident things will work properly after I upgrade.

Have any Mac users upgraded to High Sierra and are now successfully running NWN2? I just want to be confident there's a path forward in case Crossover fails to work. If you have it all working together, please chime in with the specific wine app that you're using.

Thanks all.

It depends more on your version of Crossover, mate.

Only Crossover versions 16 and 17 will work on High Sierra.

BTW, I recently tested out Crossover and it worked really good, but was a tad bit slower than my Wineskin custom installation. Crashed less though!!!

And, if you need to purchase a latest version, let me know, as I have a Promo Code for 20% off or something like that.
