macOS Porting Tool
By FrederickGeek8
This guide will walk you through using td_install, the automated Tokyo Dark porting tool for macOS. All that is required is Tokyo Dark, purchased/activated through Steam, macOS, and a valid Python installation (which should come with macOS). This tool does not use WINE or a virtual machine but instead uses a more "native" method that utilizes how Tokyo Dark is built to run.

This guide will walk you through using td_install[github.com], an automated Tokyo Dark macOS port creation tool. It is built to run on macOS and will not run on other platforms.

All that is required is Tokyo Dark, purchased/activated through Steam, macOS, and a valid Python installation (which should come with macOS). This tool does not use WINE or a virtual machine but instead uses a more "native" method that utilizes how Tokyo Dark is built to run.

Disclaimer: This is a third-party modification to Tokyo Dark and is not affiliated in any way with
Cherrymochi. This does not contain any assets from Tokyo Dark and requires a Steam login which has purchased Tokyo Dark to build. You can find this project hosted over at Github: https://github.com/FrederickGeek8/td_install
Installation
To install, run
pip install td_install
in Terminal. This application was
developed in Python 3.6.4, but will likely work in any modern version of Python
(either of version 2 or 3).
Usage
There are two modes that you can run [c]td_install[/c] in: Installation Mode and Debugging Mode. Installation Mode is the intended, default installation method for the macOS version of Tokyo Dark. However, there are some bugs in SteamCMD that makes it that if you suspect something is wrong, perhaps Debugging Mode will be better.

To install Tokyo Dark via Installation Mode
In Terminal, run
td_install
The installer will will ask for your Steam credentials as well as a installation directory at the end, so it is a semi-interactive procedure.

To install Tokyo Dark via Debugging Mode
Debugging mode will show the output of all internal commands run by td_install. In order to install Tokyo Dark in this manner, run
td_debug
in Terminal.
Notes
  • Steam typically will open a Finder window. This is completely normal,
    and the window can be closed immediately if wanted. Not quite sure why this
    happens.
  • Steam will sometimes crash or hang when logging in and updating. If
    Steam crashes, you will get notified through the Terminal immediately as
    td_install will crash. If Steam hangs, then it is harder to detect
    outside of debugging mode since it will appear to just be downloading Tokyo
    Dark. If you suspect that Steam is hanging (i.e. the download is taking longer
    then you would expect given your internet conditions), you can check by going
    into the network tab in Activity Monitor and seeing if there is significant network
    activity from the steamcmd activity, which would indicate that Steam is working as expected.
