Fallout (1, 2, Tactics) > Steam > macOS Sierra

I've just recently purchased the first 3 Fallout games so I can play them through CrossOver. I went through the installation process clicked next on everything. Once steam was installed I downloaded the game and then clicked Play. Nothing happens after this point. Anyone experience this and know how to get the games to start?

I ran with a log and this was what I got.

I found a temp fix.

  1. After installing and downloading the games you can "Run command..." > "Browse..." > drive_c > Program Files > Steam > steamapps > common > [game_folder] > [game_file].exe > "Open"
  2. Run to test it. Close the app
  3. Save Command as a Launcher
