srry for my bad english and i hope that you know what i mean otherwise i have to try somethings first and then i will tell you it.

greetings me.


Hi i did take a better look, what you can try is to press right click on silent hunter > show package content(i think it is called) > start wineskin > Advanced > change exe file to sh4missioneditor.exe and try that. i haven't try it because im at school now and dont have the cd with me. if you want after that play the game again YOU HAVE TO CHANGE SH4MISSIONEDITOR.EXE TO SH4.EXE.
As I said I've been playing on Mac for almost a year. I guess you r just starting. If I'm wrong I don't mean to be criticizing.
First, "Hi i did take a better look, what you can try is to press right click on silent hunter > show package content(i think it is called) > start wineskin > Advanced > change exe file to sh4missioneditor.exe and try that. ". You don't need to do it that way, you simply create a Custom.exe via the Advanced option in the game wrapper. This way you select the exe within the SH4 main folder you want to run and it creates a new icon which you name different from the game exe. You also asked about Mods. To do this DL the JSGME mod installer and place it's exe in the game folder, then create a Custom.exe as I described above so you can execute it and install the mods you place in the Mods sub folder.
My question re SHmission editor is because it won't run as a custom exe for some reason which I suspect has to do with how the wineskin wrapper supports the drawing aspects of the mission editor, so I' m still looking for a solution ,perhaps with Winetricks , but haven't found it yet.
