HOW TO build WOW64 (64 & 32bit) Wineskin engines

#1
Usages:

You can use this to build OS X 10.8+ compatible 64bit engines that also work with 32bit apps. (Vanilla & Staging)
This is also a faster method to build 32bit Vanilla or Staging engines.

Requirements:

- Latest wine compiled Tarball (here: https://dl.winehq.org/wine-builds/macosx/download.html)
!!! Do NOT unpack it yet !!!

Building the engine:

Step 1: Open Terminal
Step 2: Use the "cd" command to browse to the the folder where you put the Tarball (example: cd Downloads/)
Step 3: Type in this command "tar xf XXXX.tar.gz" (replace XXXX with the name of the Tarball), this will extract a folder called "usr"
Step 4: Open a text editor and make a new file called "version" (NO EXTENSION)
Step 5: Inside the file put the name that you want to call your engine (example: WS9Wine64bit1.9.18) and save the file
Step 6: Put this file inside the "usr" folder that was created by the command above (extracted from the Tarball)
Step 7: Type in this command "mv usr/ wswine.bundle"
Step 8: Type in this command "tar cf - wswine.bundle | ~/Library/Application\ Support/Wineskin/7za a -si NAMEOFYOURENGINE.tar.7z" (Replace NAMEOFYOURENGINE with the name inside of the version file)
Step 9: Move the newly created .tar.7z file inside "~/Library/Application Support/Wineskin/Engines"

(Pictures can be added later if needed)
