Recently, one of the PlayonLinux guys released a script to install GTA IV on Linux. The script does not work for PlayonMac. I does not find my unrar and then fails to display a finder file open widget.. so it's a bit of a non starter.

I don't know enough about PlayonMac scripting to fix this... perhaps someone could give me some pointers???

Thanks!

I think you should directly speak about it in PlayOnLinux forum

http://www.playonmac.com/en/topic-3369-script_Grand_Theft_Auto_IV.html

I am having problems with a a few parts of the script which I think are specific to the Mac. In the script there a parts that verify the presence of unrar. I have installed unrar using MacPorts.

check_one "unrar" "unrar"
POL_SetupWindow_missing

GTA requires a patched version of Wine 1.1.40 to run however, this version of Wine is not available from PlayonMac selector thing (but I have installed it using MacPorts)... so I now I am wondering why PlayonMac can't find things on my system and in my path.

Looking in the PlayonMac Settings I see many variables missing:
