Mar 22, 2017 Fallout 3 GOTY for Mac OS X. Right click on Fallout.3-Game.of.the.Year.Edition.app and. The wrapper only supports Mac OS X 10.6.8 and above Download the. I do not know exactly when some of the changes were made by Bethesda but now it's easier to get this game to work on Linux (and Mac probably) as a consequence. The new crosstie that I've created takes you 99% of the way. The 1% requires you to use a tool which disables GFWL(more on this later) and adjusting a configuration file with a text editor. Steps to install Fallout 3 GOTY: 1) Click on the big green button which downloads the crosstie to your computer and let CrossOver deal with installing Steam and the game. Press the 'Play' button to run the launcher which will create the folder where the game will keep its save files and configuration data. On Linux this might be either $HOME/My Games/Fallout3 or $HOME/Documents/My Games/Fallout3 On Mac OS X this will probably be /Users/$USER/My Games/Fallout3 * Do not attempt to play at this time. It won't work * 2) Download this utility from Nexusmods: Copy it to the game's install folder. To do this you need the open Tools -> Manage Bottles then click on the Fallout 3 bottle, press the 'Open C: drive' button and navigate to Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/Fallout 3 goty From this same folder, you need to copy the file Fallout_default.ini to the folder the launcher created at step 1) and rename it to Fallout.ini Now the 'Run Command' and choose the 'Games for Windows LIVE Disabler.exe' file from Program Files/Steam/steamapps/common/Fallout 3 goty Press only the button which disables GFWL ( or G4FL as they call it). It will offer to also disable an entry in the game's menu which is tied to GFWL. Let it do it. A small note on why I don't believe this is circumventing copy protection. As I said, Bethesda changed the way some things work with this game. Copy protection is handled directly through Steam according to this article(1).
