You may have seen the WWDC news about Apple’s new Game Porting Kit , which among other things, can run Windows/DirectX 12 games, ostensibly to let developers test drive their games to encourage them to port to macOS.
Fortunately for us, said tool is actually built on WINE/Crossover, Apple forked it and built a bunch of patches to map DirectX onto Metal.
Introducing Whisky, an open-source app that wraps the Game Porting Kit much like Crossover wraps WINE, allowing you to run many Windows games that previously didn’t work with such a setup.
You need to be running the macOS Sonoma beta to actually use this. Here’s how to do that.
Great, fantastic! But… if it’s more potent wine, shouldn’t it be Brandy? Or perhaps Port?
Has anyone checked if this is any different from crossover betas?
Thanks for positing this. This is exactly what I’m looking for
