It's a giant pain in the... Urist.

I did manage to get it running with some weird incantation of x86 wine though; it worked exactly once and then not again..

I then just rented a vm from shadow.tech for it instead, which works fine. Also works on linux under proton, if you have any old laptop in a drawer..

Huh. I haven’t used macs daily for a long time. So no help forthcoming on that from me lol

I am curious to see how the steam version runs on older hardware. I know they have worked a lot on multi threading and 64bit.

When I last played it It was still single threaded basically entirely and I had to build single or dual core systems specifically for running DF.

For what it's worth, I got it working in (arm64) Win 10 on UTM on an m1 max MBP (presumably using windows's x86-to-arm translation?), it works great.
