Hey all.

I am slowly in the process of moving my computing to a Macbook, and I am gonna retire my PC. Anyways, this also means switching my FGII over to it aswell. Which following the simple instructions using the (recommended wine skin) it worked really well.

Now I need to port over my extensions and add ons. But I can not seem to be able to find any clear instructions on how to make those EXE files run in wineskin.

Any of you Mac Gurus out there willing to lend me a hand?

I've just done this for Campaign Cartographer and the following advice worked (obviously you wont be browsing to Campaign Cartographer.app! :) ):

To install expansions such as Annuals, Symbol Sets, or otherwise do the following:

1. Browse to "Campaign Cartographer.app" and right click the file. Choose Show Package Contents

2. Open Wineskin.app at the top of the package contents folder.

3. Choose Install Software and browse to the expansion .exe

4. Install as normal.
