I was ready to update to catalina but theres still people with errors
guess ill wait until it is resolved

these have not been signed or notarized so to make use of these you need to disable SIP in order for wine32on64 to set the kernal flag to allow 32Bit code execution.

it looks like for the Catalina build to work correctly System Integrity Protection needs to be disabled.
I'm not sure whether this is something that can be fixed in the future (it seems that there is a method to sign the engine). I'll link an article on disabling SIP in the original Catalina post.

After extraction, you must run the following command on the application:
sudo xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine 'osu!.app'
(or otherwise apply the steps from the section: osu! or Wineskin will not open! from my guide. Ignore any "Operation not permitted" or "No such file" errors.)
For the moment, System Integrity Protection must also be disabled. You can check if it is enabled:Steps
- Open Terminal
- Type csrutil status and press enter
- Check if it says it is enabled
If it is enabled, you can follow these steps from official Apple documentation to disable it: https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/Security/Conceptual/System_Integrity_Protection_Guide/ConfiguringSystemIntegrityProtection/ConfiguringSystemIntegrityProtection.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40016462-CH5-SW1
One person has confirmed that the Wineskin does work on Catalina with no apparent issues as long System Integrity Protection is disabled.

The (extracted) application size has increased to 2.56 gigabytes which suggests that it may be more space efficient to rebuild the Wineskin from scratch.

Update: I disabled system integrity and I've run the command, it said no such file. (where can I find your osu! or Wineskin will not open! guide?) osu! still says its damaged, can't be opened, and that I should move it to the bin.
I don't see how the Wineskin thing plays into the installment. I have the unofficial one you provided downloaded.

You have ran this command right? sudo xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine 'osu!.app'
This needs to run on the osu! application each time it is downloaded. If you get the message xattr: No such file it means you have not set the working directory in Terminal correctly (the steps in my guide go into more detail). This is most likely the reason why you get "osu! is damaged and can't be opened". I suggest you try downloading it again.
I found this interesting error in the logs: wine: Bad CPU type in executable which seems to suggest that you're not using the Catalina build for some reason? It might just be an issue with winetricks.
There is a failure when osu! tries to update: _pending\osu!.exe => osu!.exe: FAIL. You can try updating osu! manually (there is a set of steps in my guide for this). There's also the error: No available GL context found.. Have you managed to get osu! on Wineskin working before? It might be that your graphics card is too old (I don't know what model of computer you have) but that seems unlikely.

It is under the section osu! or Wineskin will not open!.
Specifically, you need to move the osu! application to the desktop and then type cd Desktop in Terminal first before running the command.

First of all, a big thank you to Technocoder for putting in the time and energy for making osu! work on macOS and trying to solve player's issues! Seriously, thank you!
My experience using the posted Wineskin on macOS Mojave has been pretty good. There are always some hiccups shortly after starting osu! but I can obviously deal with that. But regularly (about once in 1 to 2 hours) I have serious lag, sometimes to the point that I can't get more than 5 to 15 FPS. Restarting doesn't help. I just have to wait a few minutes and then it gets better.
It seems, the process "tccd" is eating up a LOT of CPU during that time. I have read in forums that this issue has been solved with newer unofficial wineskin releases on portingteam's website. Clicking on the Wineskin app and going to advanced reveals I have "Wrapper Version: Wineskin 2.6.2" and "Engine: WS9Wine2.22". Updating the wrapper under Tools does not work.
I am very much a novice when it comes to his stuff, so forgive me, if I am being stupid:
Can I just download the latest version from portingteam's website and replace the "Wineskin" file, that is visible when "showing package contents" of the osu! application? Do you think that could actually help or should I try something else?

That's certainly a strange error to be getting. I know this sounds rather dumb but it might be worth downloading the file again just in case it was a one off error. If that doesn't work check if there are any files in Show Package Contents > drive_c > osu! > Songs > Logs. If there are, paste the contents of those files here (preferably in a pastebin).
It seems that there's an option to view information about the issue as well. Paste that information here as well if you can. Otherwise, you can try installing the .NET Framework manually (although I don't know if that will help):Steps
- Open Wineskin from Show Package Contents
- Click on Advanced > Tools > Winetricks
- Click on dlls and check the box next to dotnet40 (theoretically, there should be a mark in the Installed column as well)
- Click on Run

Drag your skins into the skins folder (Show Package Contents > drive_c > osu! > Skins). Alternatively, perform the sections How to do a data backup on the old Wineskin and How to restore a data backup on the new Wineskin from my guide.

It is honestly not a big issue as it restarts normally after updating the client but I am wondering what is causing this error.

when clicking restart osu!, it will proceed to update the client, then say the client is up to date, process repeats with crash and same error message.
obviously i've tried restarting multiple times lol
i've tried the solutions in the osu thread with no result (replacing the osu!.exe file with osu!install.exe renamed to osu!.exe, etc.). in hopes that maybe those solutions would work for me.
i don't use wine with osu, but when osu worked (before the latest update), it ran perfectly fine with no flaws, crashes, frame drop, etc. should i install wine? or reinstall osu?

Otherwise, if it really is a problem with the latest update you can try downloading the Wineskin again and included inside it will be an older osu!.exe that you can copy over and see if it works.

Hi!
Im having issues downloading osu on my Mac (Catalina). I've downloaded the Catalina build and disabled SIP and followed all the listed steps but after I right click and hit open on the application from my applications folder there is a little pop up from the wineskin that lasts about 10 seconds then disappears then nothing happens. What's strange is that about a week ago I tried downloading it (I believe I did all the same steps) except I did not disable SIP and it worked fine! I was able to download a bunch of maps and play for a few hours. when I came to play today however I tried opening the app and it never opened (hence me starting again today and trying to download osu once again). The only thing that has changed within the time of me downloading and playing osu last week and today is that I just downloaded a Wacom install software as I just bought a Wacom tablet to play osu. I would feel terrible having just bought a new tablet to play a game that doesn't work on my computer.
Please let me know your thought!
Thanks!!
