This guide assume that your downloads go into the default "Downloads" directory.

  • Download and install Mono

[Mono 3] (http://download.mono-project.com/archive/3.12.1/macos-10-x86/MonoFramework-MDK-3.12.1.macos10.xamarin.x86.pkg) (for Yosemite users) Mono 4 (for El Capitan users)

  • Get the latest version of CFAN from the releases page

  • Press Cmd+Spacebar on your keyboard, write "Terminal" and the press Enter

  • In the terminal that opens write the following with an Enter keystroke after each line

cd Downloads
mono cfan.exe

Note that on some macs the loading of CFAN can generate spamming of Fontconfig warnings about not having a valid region tag and ignoring UTF-8 in the terminal. If this is the case the following line can be used instead of mono ckan.exe

LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8" mono cfan.exe

  • If you downloaded your game from factorio website, your game directory should be /Applications/factorio.app/Contents. Make sure to start and close the game at least once before starting cfan. For steam factorio path should be in steam apps directory (~/Library/Application Support/Steam/"SteamApps/common/Factorio)

  • After ensuring that cfan.exe runs correctly you could check out the CKAN OSX automator apps. It should be easy to adapt it to CFAN.
