run winetricks in the game settings and search for vcrun2022 and install it wait for it to finish and launch it again

When you hit ok does it ask to install it? If so say yes
quickest-silver•6mo ago
I see you are on Mac so soe things you keep in mind
- if you use wine-crossover or GPTK you can install vcrun2022 using winetricks (game settings > wine tab > winetricks > search for vcrun2022 > install), but you'll probably need to install some extra packages for winetricks to even work on mac
- if you are using the paid crossover, you an install the Visual C++ Runtime using crossover's UI, select the bottle > install an application > search for C++ Runtime > install
- if you can't do any of those 2 things, go to https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-170 > download both x64 and x86 installer > game settings > wine tab > run exe in prefix > install both installers one after the other

i am getting this message
quickest-silver•6mo ago
I couldn't get this game to work on my Mac with neither wine-crossover nor the paid version of crossover, showing that error
one thing I couldn't try was using whisky https://docs.getwhisky.app/whisky-x-heroic.html since I have an intel mac, but maybe try with whisky

once you install whisky in your system, it should show up as a
wine/crossover option in heroic's game's settings to pick itwise-whiteOP•6mo ago
is this what you ae talking about or it this different
quickest-silver•6mo ago
the game's settings, like... where you had the winetricks and
run exe in prefix options
you have to install whisky as explained in their site https://docs.getwhisky.app/guide.htmlquickest-silver•6mo ago
then it will show up in the game's settings
wise-whiteOP•6mo ago
so this is different
quickest-silver•6mo ago
that's the default for new games, in your library, next to the play button there's a
settings button for each gamewise-whiteOP•6mo ago
its working
thanks
I will let you know if there is anything else
wise-whiteOP•6mo ago

afraid-scarlet•6mo ago
if they say what

2nd from bottom

oh i dont know anything about mac, but i can say if your goal is to play lots of games, apple is the exact wrong kind of computer to do it on
wise-whiteOP•6mo ago
lol that is why i am using heroic launcher
afraid-scarlet•6mo ago
thats exactly what i mean.. its 50/50 if a game will work on mac even with something like heroic
so if you are going to be doing a lot of gaming, probably something else is better
wise-whiteOP•6mo ago
yeah true
but I bought this already. SO I cant do anything
quickest-silver•6mo ago
you can only try, applegaming wiki is user-sourced so it could be wrong or outdated https://www.applegamingwiki.com/wiki/Death_Stranding
like... it shows some reference from 2022 there, and doesn't mention using whisky or gptk from this year for example
so... I guess you'll have to try
wise-whiteOP•6mo ago
okay thanks
wise-whiteOP•6mo ago
I am getting this when I tried to run the game
