Back in Wineskin Winery update the Wrapper version to Wineskin-2.5.8 (latest version).

Select 1.5.16 unless you really prefer 1.4.1. I have tested FGII with both Wine 1.4.1 and 1.5.16 (latest version).

In Wineskin Winery, add a Wine engine by clicking the + symbol and select from the available Wine engine releases in the new dialog, click Download and Install.

Note the location of the downloaded file (on my systems its ~/Downloads)

Open Safari or another Web browser and download the FGWebInstall.exe from the Fantasy Grounds web site (Downloads page).

Launch the Wineskin Winery.app from Applications (either from the Dock or Finder).

Drag the extracted Wineskin Winery.app app to your Applications folder.

Open the downloaded Wineskin Winery.app Version 1.7.zip file to unzip it.
