This guide uses Wine 2.0rc6 and nothing else. No Winetricks and No PlayOnMac or the like. Just wine. This is confirmed working on 2.0 and FAILS on 1.8.x so make sure you're on the --devel branch. Xiloader is required to connect to Nasomi XI on mac, Ashita doesn't work on wine. You won't have access to recast, distance, etc.

This was converted and modified from someones linux install to OSX but i can't find the thread to give them credit.

Confirmed Working: Early 2013 Macbook Pro OSX 10.12.2

if this is your first time running Wine it will ask you about gecko and a few other files, answer yes to all.

you can find wine installations on OSX @ ~/.wine you may need to enable hidden files to see it in finder. To do so open up terminal and enter the following:
defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES

1.brew install wine --devel
it's important here to use the --devel flag to get the latest version of wine. If you already have wine installed run brew upgrade wine --devel

2. Download FFXI with everything at http://nasomi.com/download.php

3. Install 64bit POL.exe
wine pol.exe

4. Open ffxisetup.exe and install FFXI and all of the expansions. Don't install PlayOnline.
wine ffxisetup.exe

5. Open the update files folder, and select all the files and copy them

6. Paste all of those files into ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/PlayOnline/SquareEnix/FINAL FANTASY XI/ and overwrite all of the duplicates

7. run POL.exe - found at ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/PlayOnline/SquareEnix/PlayOnlineViewer/
wine pol.exe

8. Update POL

9. After POL updates and restarts select existing user. Use ABCD1234, or whatever, as your POL ID and make up a username.

10. On the left side click "Check Files" and CHANGE THE DROPDOWN to read FINAL FANTASY XI.

11. Click "Check Now", this process can take 10-60 minutes. Eventually it will come up with "Repair". Select that. This can take a few hours.

12. Copy the "data" folder located at ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/PlayOnline/SquareEnix/PlayOnlineViewer/

13. Paste the data folder into ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/PlayOnline/SquareEnix/FINAL FANTASY XI/

14. Download xiloader at https://github.com/DarkstarProject/xilo ... loader.exe

15. Move xiloader to ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/PlayOnline/SquareEnix/PlayOnlineViewer/

16.Open terminal ~/.wine/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/PlayOnline/SquareEnix/PlayOnlineViewer/ and type "wine xiloader.exe --server nasomi.com"

17. You should be prompted for a login.

no MSVCP140.dll error?
Think I've gotten everything up to running it correct. Used https://www.davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/ as my install guide for WINE. And then followed this guide. This is more of an exercise in "reasons" due to already running FFXI on a dell win10 machine but upgrading the internals of a late '09 iMac has gotten me ambitious. :)

installed the runtimes in the install DL as well as the ones I installed a few years ago to get it running on the Dell. Or at least the ones that wouldn't error crash.

Claims a higher .net is already installed. DX crashes. The VCB skipped most everything as not implemented or import errors(cause there's not a real DLL library here). But both 2015 packages ran and the x64 package ran. And with the Nas packages installed the 2013 ones I have wouldn't install.

Just adding my two cents here. I play play on a 2014 macbook pro right now, but I've played retail XI with a 2009 model macbook (not pro) using bootcamp. As long as you have the space, you shouldn't have an issue getting it to work on a mac.

Thank you so very much!!! I've been waiting for this for a long time. Just installed on my macbook air!

I'm not a computer programmer, but my two cents:
1.) The FFXI installer would freeze at certain points. That's ok. Just close the installer and relaunch the installer through wine; it will pick up where it left off.

2.) Used the same link sabinfigaro recommended above: https://www.davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/

3.) Created a script that you can put in your doc (more info in the link from tip #2). This script will launch you straight to the login section in the terminal:

tell application "Terminal"
reopen
activate
do script "cd ~/.wine/drive_c/'Program Files (x86)'/PlayOnline/SquareEnix/PlayOnlineViewer/" in window 1
delay 2
do script "wine xiloader.exe --server nasomi.com" in window 1
end tell

Hope this helps!!!

Yeah, I still can't figure out how to get the correct DLLs installed.

Glad you got it going!

Nasomi could probably very easily code a bash file for doing all of the above. Might be good for server population.

Yeah... no. deleted the full wine folder and rebuilt from scratch. Reinstalled everything exactly and same exact DLL error.
