Going the direct route does help cut down on the variables.
Might get a better result.

I don't really know anything about Mac, other than it's based on UNIX.
So that's the direction I've been working from.
So we're kinda in this together!

In my experience with Linux, it never does.
Until it works.

This is the same as a "dual-boot" on Linux.
You could, but that's a whole seperate can of worms.
I've definately got 0 experience doing that on a Mac, so I would be of no help there.
As far as the 32bit, many Linux Distrobutions are dropping 32bit versions of the OS.
But, so far, most are keeping 'multi-lib' (I think thats the name) which allows 32bit programs on a 64bit OS.
So it depends how Wine handles it. If the Windows exe(SH4) can have all 32bit requirements satisfied by 64bit WINE, then it should be ok in the long run.

The "Contents" folder contains some Wine files, including a Wineskin launcher and Unix executable called winetricks.
In the "Wineskin" folder, where I ran Terminal, this is what I could find so far: Wineskin 2.9.0.2, Engine: WS10WineCX64Bit18.5.0.

Is that files full name
"Wineskin.app"?
If so can you open the "Wineskin" folder again, and in a terminal type:
And see what it does?
They may have re-named the executable file for MacOS...
Or I'm totally wrong.
