I'm not aware of any performance improvements that can be made by Wine directly; Your best bet is to disable as much stuff as possible ingame. Alternatively, if you don't have a dual monitor setup you may consider reenabling CaptureDisplaysForFullscreen. The steps are in my guide: https://osu.ppy.sh/community/forums/topics/679205 under "Help! I'm running a dual monitor setup and osu! blacks out my other screen!". Just be sure to type "Y" instead of "n" in the text box.

I'm going to begin processing this change over at github for official release. I welcome any contributions in reviewing or reducing cruft: https://github.com/ppy/osu-wine/pull/16
It keeps asking me to verify my account even though I have already verified. Won't allow me to play online.
If this works this would be a life saver. Thanks for your work!
holy crap, this is amazing! thank you so much for this
it took a little bit of prodding but it works so amazingly
edit: it broke after first launch with a .net framework initialization error, not sure what's going on. it looks like osu!.exe got updated to a version that wine wasn't expecting, not sure how to fix even the updater is borked. upon further investigation it looks like the release stream in osu.cfg keeps on getting kicked back to the Stable channel (from Stable40)...looks like this happens every time the updater runs past initial startup.
edit: looks like it's happening due to an error: http://ix.io/DNn update log
edit: i got it to work somehow? what i did was repeatedly launch and exit after initial startup to make sure it functioned correctly -- the updater stopped running (which was good.) then i imported my skin and songs after, which also worked. not sure what i did correctly this time lol

I downloaded the zipfile from the google drive link you provided. I skipped the first step (because this is my first time downloading osu! on the mac) and proceeded to move osu! out of the download folder, but it doesn't open? Nothing happens when I click it, did I miss something?
thank you! runs 100%, except for one problem. i've installed yesterday and every time i play whenever the HP bar starts dropping to around 10-15% the game blacks out, really annoying cause then i just stop being able to see the game and obviously always lose as i can't keep playing to come back. soon as the song is lost i'm able to see the game just fine once again.

Only thing I can think of is OpenGL issues but your GL Version is only slightly lower than mine so I doubt it's a huge issue. You can try disabling as many graphical effects in the osu! options and if that doesn't work, enable compatibility mode. If even that doesn't work I'll add a section in my guide later that explains how to revert your Wine version to an older one that may work better.

Still the same mouse problem. I use to play in Windows with mouse, and on macOS with the raw input and the exact same sensivity, it is unplayable. Mouse seems to be moving so randomly...
Thanks though!
I'm not entirely sure on the internals of mouse movement in OSX but mouse acceleration may be affecting your cursor (since Wine has to translate your OSX cursor to osu!). If you want to disable your mouse acceleration open Terminal and paste this in:
defaults write .GlobalPreferences com.apple.mouse.scaling -1
Then press enter.

hey! worked for me - i moved some settings around, something was probably causing conflict and the problem is gone. not sure what it was as i changed a lot of stuff, but fortunately it's properly working again. thanks again for this lovely package now i can say it's fully running
omg i spent hours tryng to get osu on mac, tysm!!!!. Works perfectly!
For me osu wont open at all, it says its open but nothing happens, at first it updated and then it was stuck on the osu icon so i closed it. now it won't work and I'm not able to close it or delete it!? I've tried getting osu on my mac for quite some time no and nothing seems to work 
thank you so much, i got the chance to come back into osu! after 2 years since now i own a macbook, and the game run pretty well, no lag or anything
No matter what I do/try to do, I always get this same message. Any help would be much appreciated.
in my case, the osu! app won't launch. so i went to "show package contents" > wineskin > test run > view logs. and at that point, nothing happens, i just see this: http://prntscr.com/idtb5z
AYYYY FINALLY THANK YOU I FINALLY GOT TO PLAY OSU AGAIN
Hello, it's not really a huge issue, but I used to be able to play with softening filter and shaders but I haven't been able to use them for a long time now.
If I turn on softening filter, the entire screen blacks out. The instant I turn it off, it's fine.
If I turn on shaders, the transition from home screen –> song selection is no longer a fade to black but abruptly turns black. Also when my HP is low, the screen blacks out just like catitaa6.
I've tried doing winetricks –> videomemorysize= ____ because I thought it might work, but it doesn't. And I have already updated to your new Wineskin wrapper (thank you!!). It might be that I use a MBP Retina 2013 (High Sierra)? I feel like the graphics card should be okay, but I am not too sure.

Hi,
I've installed this a couple days ago and it worked fine, until I've enabled compatability mode, and now it says this: http://prntscr.com/ig29h4
Is there a way to disable compatability mode trough editing files, or do I need to do something else?
Thanks

Here's an unofficial update to the osu! OSX package. This is a direct replacement for the official osu! Wineskin package that can be found here: http://osuosx.tumblr.com
It has several improvements and fixes several issues (in comparison to the official Wineskin package) including (but not exhaustive):
- Fixes game not launching on High Sierra
- Reduces input lag
- Reduces frame drops
- Increases FPS
- Removes the need for XQuartz
- Prevents f.lux temporarily disabling when switching windows
- Smoother opening of beatmaps
- Fixes erratic unfocusing of cursor when using keyboard to tap due to Location Services
- Allows swiping to switch between windows
- Fixes black screen issue with dual or more monitor setups
- Fixes minimising of osu! when focus changes
Results may vary

If you're uncomfortable with using a file downloaded from a complete stranger (and you should be) you can follow my guide here to obtain (mostly) the same Wineskin package.
[Guide] Fixing Mac Issues: https://osu.ppy.sh/community/forums/topics/679205How to install
Steps
- First you'll need to save your osu! data so you can transfer it over later. See my guide here on How to do a data backup (apply it on the old osu! app): https://osu.ppy.sh/community/forums/topics/679205
- Download the package from the previously shown download link
- Extract the .zip file
- Move the osu! application out of the Downloads folder otherwise it will not start properly
- Run (double click) on the osu! app. The osu! updater should run and start osu! after a while
- Close osu!
- See my guide here on How to restore a data backup (apply it on the downloaded osu! app): https://osu.ppy.sh/community/forums/topics/679205
Now you can move the downloaded osu! application anywhere you want and it should work fine.
If you are having issues after you see the osu! logo/updater please include the osu! updater logs found in osu! > Logs.
If you are having issues before you see the osu! logo/updater please include the Wineskin test run logs found after running a test run. (osu! > Open Package Contents > Wineskin > Advanced > Test Run)
Hey i'm having a problem, i downloaded a skin and when i put it in the skin folder it wont import it into the game. what can i do to fix this?
uhh i have a bit of problem

edit: I've got it in romaji mode oops! Supposed to have it in english!
Though I tried installing the new version of osu! just recently and osu! will now not open... gives me an error saying, "Unable to find a version of the runtime to run the application." Any clues on how to solve this issue?

Extract the skin with a zip extractor and then move the folder into the Skins folder.
So the resulting directory structure should be:
> Skins
--> Minimal 1.2 (or the skin name)
----> approachcircle.png
----> approachcircle@2x.png
----> ... etc
I hate it when formatting doesn't work
Thank you so so so much!

same exact thing happened to me due to a misclick lol
Yes, I've got it working after rebooting.
But, I need help as I use Wacom's Tablet Settings. Selecting osu!.app, booting the game, my cursor doesn't adjust. I found out the osu! runs on /Volumes/[my drive]/osu!.app/Contents/Frameworks/wswine.bundle/bin/ but on a Unix Executable file, which Wacom Tablet Settings doesn't select.

I finally got it to work for some reason. I don't know why it didn't work last time but now, it's working perfectly! Thank you for this, by the way!
Hi, I just downloaded it but it lags a lot. Also, then inputs are a bit weird, I keep hitting early. The lag issue is the biggest though. Any help would be great thx
I managed to get to the osu updater window by disabling the "Decorate Windows" in Screen Options and running a test, but now I'm getting the "Unable to find a version of runtime to run this application" error, clicking any of the buttons just closes osu.
EDIT: Adding dotnet40 in winetricks stops the message from appearing, but just ends up crashing anyway. Getting this stuff in the mac system console:

EDIT LIKE 6: So downloaded it again, realised that there was some annoying conflicts with Razer Synapse's Kraken Headset Driver coming up in the wine logs while installing, so gonna remove Razer Synapse and hopefully that'll fix it. I'm pretty sure this happened before on earlier versions of the osu! mac wrapper, I just forgot about it and plugged in my headset without thinking.
EDIT AGAIN: I swear this'll be the last one until I uninstall Synapse, here's the logs

Hey i'm having a problem, i downloaded a skin and when i put it in the skin folder it wont import it into the game. what can i do to fix this?
The simplest way is to drag the osk file onto the running osu! game (make sure it is in windowed) then it'll automatically add the skin
It worked fine until one day it said "unable to find a version of the runtime to run this application". I re-installed but it said the same thing. wut do
Thank You! i haven't had a problem using this, except having to weirdly closing it without quitting just to import beatmaps.
I've looked through here and can't seem to find a solution for my issue. I'm using a Wacom Intuos P S (newest intuos tablet, also known as intuos draw) when I play osu! and when I'm playing, the cursor will freeze for a few seconds - every 10-20 seconds and make me fail. I have Wacom drivers installed, so I checked to see if it was my tablet by playing with my mouse and I get the same problem. The mouse & tablet works perfectly fine outside of osu! so I'm not sure what the problem is.
