Title: HOW TO PLAY FERAL HEART ON MAC (WITH MODS)
Post by: GldenEyes on April 26, 2016, 05:31:34 pm
Hi Everyone!

I've been recently toying around with Mac and got one for myself. Little did I know mac was incompatible with FH????
I was browsing on the forums and nobody seems to know the solution to how to get this game to work with all these updates. Well I haven't played in a long time and it only took me a little while to get this game to work!

Here are the steps to play Feral Heart on a mac. But first a few notes.

1. I am not a tech whiz. I just have experience with getting games to work on mac using wine, wineskin, and the winery.
2. I play on the latest update on Mac. MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014).
3. OSX EL CAPTAIN 10.14 WORKS THE MYTHS ARE NOT TRUE


READ BELOW FOR STEPS ON HOW TO GET FERAL HEART WORKING


1. Download Feral Heart. Thats an obvious start. This next part is CRUCIAL: Do NOT (I repeat) DO NOT download the game from "Download for Mac" Use a torrent!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. Download wineskin winery from this site:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/wineskin/files/Wineskin%20Winery.app%20Version%201.7.zip/download (https://sourceforge.net/projects/wineskin/files/Wineskin%20Winery.app%20Version%201.7.zip/download)
Once downloaded move to your applications folder.

3. Download Utorrent if you don't have it already. If you don't have it here's where you can get it.
http://www.utorrent.com/intl/en/ (http://www.utorrent.com/intl/en/)
Once downloaded move to your applications folder.

4. Alright now you have all the necessary tools needed for installation. Next is to create a wrapper in the winery. To do this you need to open the app.
----IF YOU NEVER HAD WINERY BEFORE----
>>>>UPDATE WINESKIN WINERY<<<<

5. Once you've updated the winery you'll need to download an engine. Don't go all "I know bigger numbers is better" on me. Because it isn't. You're going to want to download this engine: WS8Wine 1.2.3

6. Once you download that, you'll need to have that highlighted in that list of installed engines. Then click "Create New Blank Wrapper" at the bottom of the window. Name it whatever you want. For this I'll be naming it "FeralHeart"

7. Once you name it, some ugly windows will pop up. Wineskin will want to install "Gecko" or whatever its called. Let it install it because it will save us some issues to handle.

8. WAIT WHERE DID MY WRAPPER GO??? Don't panic young padawan. All you have to do is go to either your launch-pad and select it. Or go to Yourusername>Applications>Wineskin>Whateveryounamedyourapp Now open that up!
(When you first open that up it will say it can't be opened. Thats a lie. Just close that and try again and it will open...)

9. Now. At the top of the window of your new wrapper. Click tools. Then winetricks (Under utilities)

10. Search and install the following in the winetricks window.
       - msxml3 >> Select it and run. Follow the prompts. Don't worry about the username and password.
       - vcrun2008 >> Select it and run. Follow the prompts.
       - quartz >> Select it and run. Follow the prompts.

     Once all of these are installed close out of winetricks :)

11. Now we actually install FH onto the wrapper. To do this. Hit the Configuration tab. At the bottom of the page, it should say "Install Software." Click that. Then the first option "Choose Setup Executable" Now find the downloaded file. If you haven't done this yet click this http://static.feral-heart.com/FHSetup.torrent (http://static.feral-heart.com/FHSetup.torrent)
((It should download as a torrent, once completed, open the utorrent app you installed earlier. If you never used it before its no hastle. To get it to download quicker just "right click" and choose force start, as well as bandwidth allocation, and set it to high))

IF YOU ALREADY HAVE IT DOWNLOADED>>> It should be in downloads and named "FeralHeart.exe"

12. Follow the prompts once you selected and chose that app. Don't install a desktop icon, yada yada yada...

13. DirectX installation should happen while you're downloading. It will fail the installation, DONT WORRY ABOUT IT. It might not click off right away, if so, force quit. The first time you run it may or may not work. I just use "Test Run" to make sure. Give it a solid 5 tries and if it works for the majority of the time then YAY!!!

14. Now to get the mods working all you gotta do is install them. I have 4 mods I'll be using. (THESE ARE NOT MINE I'M JUST USING THEM)

This is very nice for you to type up to help some people who are experiencing these issues. I'll move this thread over to the Miscellaneous Tutorials board since the topics in the Game Help board are usually for those seeking help, rather than giving help.

Did ye place the items in the correct files and replace the .cfg's? That might be the problem. Ye also should restart your game after downloadin' mods. Hope this helps ye!
