yea no luck, btw I'm running on a older Mac high Sierra 10.13.6, might be time to upgrade. tried to also do the parallels VM and that is saying no window found lol, the wine error is saying "failed to initialize graphics, make sure you have direct 11 installed, have up to date drivers for you graphics card and have not disabled 3d acceleration in display settings. initialized engine graphics failed"
Well, I might be able to help you with the VM part. What you're going to need to get is a Windows 10 x64 ISO. You'll use that disc image to install the OS in whichever VM software you're running (I use VMware, but have used VirtualBox [which sucks, I might add] in the past) That OS will now be your new virtual machine (Windows guest running from a native MacOS host).
VM's basically allow you to run pretty much whatever OS you want in it, provided the hardware will support it or vice versa. But in this instance, it's not that big of a deal. You shouldn't run into trouble aside from
possibly a resource issue.
I can tell you from first-hand experience, VMs eat up a lot of RAM. So you may have to tweak the amount of RAM you give the guest OS during installation. And even then it may still run sluggish. I'd start low; say 2 - 4GBs at first and adjust accordingly thereafter.
Windows 10 comes with DX12 out-of-the-box. You may need to get the

runtimes (and I would highly recommend it).
For your Windows VM, you'll also want a copy of

.
So, first thing you'll want to do is, install your VM, then install the OS on your VM. After that, install 7-Zip in the guest OS and extract the files from the all-in-one pack to your guest OS. Run the "install_all.bat" file, wait a minute or two for the files to install, then extract the game to its own folder (again, using 7-Zip). Then run the game. If all goes well, you should be off and running in no time.
If that all sounds a bit daunting, I would wait to hear back from one of the other guys on the team. They can help you on the Mac side.
