MacOS

Game can run in MacOS with Wine. Tested with:

wine-8.0.1
MacOS ventura 13.6.3 (22G436)
Intel CPU / M1 CPU
serflings-2.1.0-SNAPSHOT

To get the game to start you need one file from the original settlers 1 game because graphics and sounds are read from there. Please copy the file SPAE.PA (or SPAD.PA for German, SPAF.PA for French) in the same directory of Serflings.

• install brew if you don't have it yet -> https://brew.sh
• in terminal -> brew install wine-stable
• download and unzip Serflings (Windows 64Bit ZIP) -> https://www.simpleguide.net/sg/serflings.jsf
• copy SPAE.PA to same Serflings folder as serflings.exe file
• run via Mac UI (right click on serflings.exe - run with wine)
• allow all files to run via macOS security settings (a lot of clicking) - or allow for folder (see below)
• might need a few rounds of security allowing / restarts, but it will run
