This has been so helpful! I have been digging around to figure out ways to
get the Cloud Sync to work on my Mac. I appreciate it.
Some updates that worked better for me on my Macbook Air, El Captain OS:
- msxml3, msxml4, and msxml6 install as recommended by David Rees
- Make sure to update Winetricks prior to install of the above
- Also, the utilization of "Use Mac Driver Instead of X11" in Screen
Options
- Note, using the most recent wrapper (currently 2.6.2) worked best, as
opposed to going back in time.
- Did end up using the 1.5.27 engine though, had tried the most
recent one and it kept giving me the OLM Errors
