How To Play Steam Games For Windows On Mac

[ScorchingReaper]

I am going to show you how to play Steam games for Windows on Mac. This is extreamly easy to do and does not require Boot Camp.

First, go to this link: http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/ to download WineBottler. It allows you to run Windows only files on you Mac such as .exe files. (WineBottler is required to run Steam games for Windows.)

Once you install WIneBottler, go to this link: {ENLACE ELIMINADO}http://www.mediafire.com/download/ciykpkj4d7op67i/Steam+Build1bd3d.zip to download the Steam Wrapper. 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.

Double-Click the Steam for Windows application. It takes sometime to open, but it will.

And there you go! You are now able to install any Windows-only games on your Mac! You will have to use Wine to run the Windows-only games.

Also, if you want to install or run any Windows-only games, you will have to use the Steam for Windows application. Because of this, you will have to switch between your primary Steam for Mac application and your new Steam for Windows application depending on if the game you want to play is for Mac or Windows.

(PS: The Steam for Windows application may freeze at random and you may have to restart it.)

Steam filters block it but you can actually see the link if you quote the OP.

i use wine to open windows steam but there is an error and this error don't create the steam app so when i close windows steam i can't open that another time with all the game!

For the WineBottler website, it gives two options: "WineBottler 1.8 Development" and "WineBottler 1.8 Stable". Which of the two should be downloaded? Also, the link mentioned after downloading WineBottler is removed on my screen. Is there any way to see the link for it?

This is sketchy, Wine bottle hasn't worked for me once and it's pissing me off. >:(
Also it seems fishy that your wrapper link was removed cause of malware. Really makes you think.

Sounds like you've simply done something wrong.You getting frustrated doesn't make something sketchy. I think the word you wanted was "frustrating".

Fixed this for you.

Ahh cool, I have an iMac as well. Actually, its from 2011. Can you please show me your specs? Your problem may have to do with your iMac's specs.

I doubt that its the specs since a mate who got a full iMac just last year had similar things but here they are:

Software: OSX Yosemite 10.10.2
Processor: 3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
Memory: 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3
Graphics: 21.5 Inch (1920 x 1080) ATI Radeon HD 4670 256 MB
Network: Broadbabd Internet connection
Hard Drive: 568GB available space (give or take)

Have Paralells for Windows 7 Home Premium (I think)

Hi.

I also had this problem, but then i realized, Parallels doesn't really give you a good performance at all. If you want keep using parallels you may have to buy a new computer or change your mac's components. If you feel your components are ok and you are still having a bad performance it may be the motherboard that is failing (having an outdated version of windows will also decrease your performance)

For running games on you mac or parallels, i recommend having this minimum specs for both:

OS: Windows 10/ MacOS Mojave or Catalina
CPU: Latest Intel Core i5 with at least 2.8GHz
RAM: At least 8GB with 6000MHz
GPU: GTX 950 or 1080 with 8GB
Storage: 1TB or 800GB
Network connection: 5G or 6G internet connection

And then you will be good to game with a good performance :)
