Importing beatmaps and skins¶

Importing beatmaps into osu! is quite like shooting fish in a barrel, and there's a number of ways yous can get this to work with your osu! Wineskin.

Using osu!macOS Agent¶

You can accept beatmaps automatically moved from your Downloads binder to osu!, with the help of Technocoder's osu!macOS Agent programme. To enable this:

  1. Open up osu!macOS Amanuensis

  2. In the Full general tab, locate the Location: field. Brand sure this points to your osu! install (e.yard /Users/Adrian/Desktop/osu!.app )

  3. Enable the post-obit checkboxes

    • Automatically move beatmaps from Downloads

    • Automatically movement skins from Downloads

You tin also enable

  • Automatically open replays from Downloads

  1. Leave osu!macOS Amanuensis running. The side by side time yous download a beatmap from the osu! website, it should automatically move to your osu! wrapper. And so just hit F5 (beatmaps) or Ctrl-Alt-Shift-S (skins) to refresh.

Drag and drop¶

Y'all might besides be able to drag and drib beatmaps and skins into osu! directly. In my personal experience this only works with Technocoder's Wineskin with macOS Catalina 10.fifteen support.

If osu! is full screen, yous can use Mission Control (F4 cardinal) to switch between windows.

Click to import¶

You lot tin can set up osu! to automatically open and import a beatmap or pare when you click on it in your Downloads binder or spider web browser.

  1. Download a random osu beatmap or pare (and go the osz file)

  2. Right click on osu!.app

  3. Click Show Package Contents

  4. Navigate to drive_c/osu!/Songs and drag & drop your osz or osk beatmap into at that place

  5. Go back a few folders until you reach Wineskin.app, and click to pen it!

  6. Click Advanced. You should see a screen like the one below

Wineskin options showing Associated Extensions.

Note the Associated Extensions section. If the osz2 , osr , osz and osu extensions aren't there, add them using the + button.

To verify that this has all been prepare correctly:

  1. Click Tools, then click Control Line (cmd). A panel-like should open (information technology takes a while tho)

  2. Type explorer.exe

  3. Navigate to My Reckoner\osu!\Songs in the window that appears and locate the osz beatmap y'all merely dropped

  4. Right click on the file, click Backdrop and verify information technology worked. It should await like the epitome below.

Note

This method tends to be more unreliable than the others listed and you may experience varying degrees of success.

Transmission import¶

To manually import a beatmap into osu!, follow the following instructions:

  1. Find your Songs directory

    • Locate where osu!.app (your Wineskin) is installed

    • Right click on it and select Prove Package Contents

    • You should at present run across three files/folders: Contents , drive_c and Wineskin . Click drive_c .

    • From here, click osu! .

    • From here, locate Songs

Tip

You tin create an alias or shortcut pointed to your Songs directory, in somewhere handy similar your Desktop. And so you can quickly admission the folder whenever you want to drop beatmaps in.

To create an alias, click on the Songs folder, then go to File > Make Alias - then put this allonym somewhere where you can easly access information technology.

  1. Find a beatmap on osu.ppy.sh. For this example, we'll use Ryofuka's crossing field.

  2. Just like you would normally, click the Download push to download the beatmap.

  3. You should at present accept a .osz file in your Downloads file. Drag and driblet this file into the Songs directory we located before.

Tip

To avoid potential import issues, remove whatsoever not-alphabetical characters (numbers and hyphens are fine)

Note

Yep, my beatmap binder is very empty (but yours won't be! Unless it is, of course..)

  1. If y'all don't have osu! open already, open it now. And then in-game, printing F5

Notation

Unless y'all have part keys enabled, you may need to press the Fn button at the same fourth dimension.


Apply F1, F2, etc. as standard function keys

  1. Locate where osu!.app is installed

  2. Right click on information technology and select Show Package Contents

  3. You should now see three files/folders: Contents , drive_c and Wineskin . Click Wineskin

  4. A window like the one below should pop up. Click Avant-garde

Wineskin settings.

  1. Click the Options tab

  2. Select Employ F1, F2, etc. as standard office keys


Tip

You can do all of this while leaving osu! running open in the background!

A notation almost importing skins¶

Importing skins is largely the same process, except instead of the Songs directory, apply the Skins directory, and to reload osu! use Ctrl-Alt-Shift-South instead of F5 .

You can then select your peel equally normal from the osu! in-game settings carte.

Note

Treat this as if yous were working on a Windows organization. If the skin is compressed, you'll probably need to uncompress information technology. You can use something like The Unarchiver or even your in-congenital Annal Utility to do this (though Annal Utility might not have and so much fun with .rar or .7zip files)

See the osu! knowledge base for more info.
