I am currently trying to install steins;gate using playonmac: https://www.playonmac.com/en/app-1988-SteinsGate.html

however, i recieve this error after creating the virtual drive while trying to download vcrun10

"Error in POL_Download_Resource
error during download! (1 attempt)"

I assume this is due to a broken link to the download, and it also occurs when i try to download vcrun10 standalone outside of the installer.

 

After troubleshooting some, i created a blank virtual disk and attempted a manual install. the installer i used came with the ability to install vcrun10 on its own so i was able to install vcrun. the problem then occured when i was asked to "insert disk1 with data.bin". I have the file of data.bin itself but no disk or a disk drive to use. i tinker around with the drive settings in wine but never got the wizard to recognize the file. 

Using:

Macbook air 2015

8Gb Ram

1.6 Ghz dual core Intel i5

Macos montery 12.1

wine version: system

POM version: 4.4.3

 

Thanks in advance
