STx can be run on a Linux machine using WINE.

macOS

Here are two possibilities for getting STx running on macOS. They are, however, untested:

WineBottler

You can try using WinBottler (previously called Darwine). This is a port of WINE for macOS.

Virtual Machine

You can install a Windows virtual machine using software like Parallels Desktop or VirtualBox. You will need a Windows license.

PlayOnLinux under Ubuntu 17.10

The following are settings which have been helpful in getting STx to run under WINE using PlayOnLinux.

WINE configuration

Graphics

  • Disable 'Allow the window manager to control the windows'. This gets the window close buttons working again, but introduces other problems (windows always on top!).
