New engine which will fix Steam/Battle.net/EA App is coming soon!
Great news! We have been working hard (especially the developers :P) to get and updated application for the actual Wineskin we used for years. Now, very soon this will be succeeded by “Sikarugir”! Thats same kind of application which creates wrappers for the Mac to be able to play your games as counter partner for Crossover! The Engines which Porting Kit uses are in most cases based on the Crossover engines at the moment.
Very soon, most like next week already we will have a fix for all the running issues we have with Steam, Battle.net and the EA App and some other smaller stuff! Yes, that means Steam games, like Age of Empires 2 DE and others, are back in business! But that’s not all, a whole bunch of new games and GOG Galaxy will work as well, but more about that soon! Keep an close eye on the blog coming week!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!

Still the download-stuck-issue with AOE2 DE at 9%ish :S
Yeah, same for me unfortunately… :-(
Same here as well :( AOE2 DE stuck at 9% even after reinstalling portingkit
So nothing?
