Official Mac OS X Install Guide
This will show you how to install the Warband version of Star Wars Conquest on macOS. There are two ways of doing it; by taking advantage of the Steam Workshop automatic updates, or by installing the mod manually.

If you choose to install the mod *without* using the Steam Workshop, just make sure that the three latest .7z files from https://swconquest.github.io are already in your Downloads folder. Otherwise installing Warband on your Mac and clicking Subscribe should be enough. Let's begin.


HOW TO OPEN THE TERMINAL?

Open the «Go» menu in the Finder and select «Utilities», then click on the «Terminal» icon.

We will go line by line, just copy-paste the various commands in the Terminal and press Enter. I will explain what it does first to avoid looking sketchy.


–––––––––– OPTION A: Steam Workshop version ––––––––––

After installing Warband on your Mac, clicking Subscribe, and waiting for the big download to finish, the mod should be technically installed, if the Warband engine worked as intended we shouldn't have to do any of the following workarounds.


OPTION A: PART ONE -- FIXING WARBAND

1. First fix the font and the collision bodies so that you can actually hit baddies. Just paste this in the Terminal window and press Enter:

cd ~/'Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/workshop' && ln -s 'content/48700/742671195/Data' Data

That's it. Open Steam like your normally do and use Warband's Configure utility to change the selected mod to «Star Wars Conquest». If you followed this guide properly then the game should launch and reach to the main menu.

Automatic mod updates should work as normal, you only need to repeat these steps whenever the font breaks, so hopefully only when reinstalling the game.

Have fun with the mod!





–––––––––– OPTION B: Manual mod installation ––––––––––

If you choose to install the mod *without* using the Steam Workshop, just make sure that the three latest .7z files from https://swconquest.github.io are already in your Downloads folder.


OPTION B: TEMPORARILY INSTALLING THE 7-ZIP EXTRACTOR

This switches your Terminal to your temporary directory (the one that gets flushed every time you reboot), then downloads the 7za command-line utility (right from the 'Homebrew' package manager but without installing anything) and extracts it in that very same folder:

cd /tmp && curl -L 'homebrew.bintray.com/bottles/p7zip-16.02_2.catalina.bottle.tar.gz' -o p7zip.tar.gz && tar -xzvf p7zip.tar.gz 'p7zip/16.02_2/lib/p7zip/7za' && mv -f 'p7zip/16.02_2/lib/p7zip/7za' .

Don't worry, it's only a tiny, portable and self-contained program (called 7za) that will go away the next time you shutdown your Mac. They leave no trace behind.

OPTION B: PART ONE -- UNINSTALLING PREVIOUS SWC VERSIONS

This opens the Warband Mods folder in the Finder so that you can delete the «SWC» folder if already exists. If not, carry on:

open ~/'Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/MountBlade Warband/Modules/'

OPTION B: PART TWO -- INSTALLING THE MOD

Next up we are going to extract the mod in that very same place. Just ensure that the three latest .7z files from https://swconquest.github.io are already conveniently stored in your Downloads folder.

Let's switch to the Downloads folder, where the compressed files are.

cd ~/Downloads

1. Extract the standalone SWC 0.9.4-final release for Mount&Blade 1.011:

/tmp/7za x -y -bb1 '-o'~'/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/MountBlade Warband/Modules' swconquest-094-final.7z

2. Extract the original Warband compatibility patch over it and overwrite the original mod files:
/tmp/7za x -y -bb1 '-o'~'/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/MountBlade Warband/Modules' swconquest-094-final-wbcompat.7z

3. Extract the latest nightly patch (the one that comes with the latest updates) and, you guessed it, overwrite yet again:
/tmp/7za x -y -bb1 '-o'~'/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/MountBlade Warband/Modules' `find . -name 'swconquest-094-final-wbcompat_*' | sort -r -u | head -n 1`

OPTION B: PART THREE -- FIXING WARBAND

The mod is now technically installed, if the Warband engine worked as intended we shouldn't have to do any of the following workarounds.

1. First fix the font and the collision bodies so that you can actually hit baddies:

cd ~/'Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common' && ln -s 'MountBlade Warband/Modules/SWC/Data' Data

That's it. Open Steam like your normally do and use Warband's Configure utility to change the selected mod to «SWC». If you followed this guide properly then the game should launch and reach to the main menu.

Have fun with the mod!



BONUS: How to roll these changes back if your game breaks

If you have used previous versions of this guide (or something went wrong and your game no longer works correctly) you will need to verify the integrity of game files to get the original files back, as shown here: https://support.steampowered.com/kb_article.php?ref=2037-QEUH-3335

Keep in mind that by using this newer macOS install method you should be able to keep TLD installed without replacing any game files, meaning that you should also be able to play Native and other mods. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
