Install UO on Mac

Short version how to install UO Outlands using Classic UO with Razor on a Mac

This method is working for Mac OSX 11.6.7 -- latest update as of 6/20/2022. Note that neither the Outlands installer nor the launcher are functional using this method, so we work around it. If you need help or more information, contact paxprobellum#7759 on Discord.

1. Disable SIP by holding CMD+R on startup, then issuing command "csrutil disable" in Terminal

• More info here.
• NB: This is a 'security risk' but necessary for this procedure. If you don't want to disable SIP, try using Bootcamp or Parallels.

2. Install X11 via XQuartz

• Download latest version from Xquartz.org - direct download here.
• More info here.

3. Download Wineskin Winery - "V1.8.4: Wineskin-Winery-1.8.4" from here.

• Direct download link here.
• This is the latest version as of 6/20/2022

4. Start the Wineskin Winery and install the engine "WS11WineCX64Bit21.2.0"

• This is the latest version as of 6/20/2022

5. Update Wrapper, then create a "New Blank Wrapper"

• Name it UOOutlands and click "yes" for everything. This part will take awhile.

6. Run your wrapper and select "Install Software", then "Copy a Folder Inside". Select your patched "Ultima Online Outlands" folder that you copied on to a flash drive from your Windows PC.

• This is a kludge, but you get to keep your hotkeys/macros!
• Latest "patch" can be downloaded in full here if necessary at any point.

7. Set Screen Options -> change window system to X11, use a virtual desktop, use windowed.

8. Advanced -> Configuration -> Windows EXE should be set to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Ultima Online Outlands\ClassicUO\ClassicUO.exe" OR "C:\Program Files\Ultima Online Outlands\ClassicUO\ClassicUO.exe"

9. Advanced -> Tools -> Winetricks. Update winetricks itself, and then install:

• vcrun2015
• d3dx9
• d3dcompiler_47
• dotnet20
• dotnet40
• dotnet471

10. Optional: Change the icon

• Download this transparent UO icon, open in preview, and copy the image (Command+A, Command+C).
• Right click on UOOutlands.app, click "Get Info", click the photo of the icon (very top left), then paste (Command+V).

11. Optional 2: True full screen mode (no X11 window bar, OSX menu bar, or dock)

• Create a space for X11 through Mission Control (Control + Up), then press the plus button in the top right corner of the screen.
• Switch to the new space, start X11 (Command + Space then type "Xquartz" and hit enter).
• Right-click the X11 icon in the Dock and click Options -> This Desktop.
• Click X11’s application menu -> Preferences -> Output -> Check "Full-Screen Mode".
• Close the preferences dialog and quit X11

12. Double click your wrapper (UOOutlands.app) to run! See you in game.
