    Apple is removing 32 bit OS support so best talk to them and ask why, also impossible with catalina

    See https://www.reddit.com/r/swtor/comments/i6yvl5/guide_how_to_run_swtor_on_macos_using_wine/

    1. As of right now, it's not possible run SWTOR on Catalina. I've been coordinating with multiple people the last couple of months trying to make the game run on Catalina, but came to a conclusion that as of the time this post was made, it's impossible.
    2. Apple announced that they are pulling away from Intel chips and switching to their own Apple Silicon chips. Since Wine is built to work on Intel chips, ARM-based systems won't be able to run Wine. Apple has an emulator in place for applications that require x86_64 instructions, but it's currently unknown how Wine will interact with it.
