I realise that this is not a Wrapper forum. However, given the lack of responses at PortingTeam I thought I'd try here too.
Background: I'm running Fallout 1 v1.2 GSP White Label DVD edition inside a Wineskin wrapper downloaded from PortingTeam here on a Mac mini (2011) running OS X 10.7.4.
Aim: I'd like to patch the game to include the High-Resolution patch, the bug-fix TeamX 1.3.5 patch, and a Direct3D patch. I don't want to use patches that add new content, maps, character abilities etc.
Problems:
1) The High-Resolution patch 3.0.6 doesn't appear to install correctly. After extracting the patch to the Fallout folder, I've used the following (official) method to install: Open Package Contents on Fallout wrapper; Launch Wineskin app; Choose "Install Windows Software" from subsequent window; Choose "f1_res_patcher.exe"; Hit "OK". At this point Wineskin tells me it's busy, but then instead of asking me whether I want to patch the "falloutw.exe" as it should, it tells me that "no new binaries can be found". That's it. If I launch Fallout at this point there is a new space at the bottom of the menu, but it contains no text and has no button. The following files are present in the Fallout folder:
2) TeamX ENG 1.3.5 patch has instructions that I'm reluctant to follow, because if I did I'm confident they'd render the game unplayable. The instructions are to:
3) The Direct3D patch - well, to be honest I'm not sure I have this yet. I've looked but can't find such a thing for Fallout 1 - all I can find is the High-Resolution patch. Though it's not indicated in the readme, does the HR patch actually also provide a D3D patch? Advice would be welcomed here.
Thanks in advance.

2) TeamX ENG 1.3.5 patch has instructions that I'm reluctant to follow, because if I did I'm confident they'd render the game unplayable. The instructions are to:
If I did that, then the 3.5MB "DATA" folder that would be produced by the unarchiver would replace the 89.7MB "data" folder already there - surely that can't be right? In addition, the files rooted in the "DATA" folder differ significantly in name from the pre-existing ones in the "data" folder, so I'm reluctant to just move them into place manually. Some help would be appreciated here.
3) The Direct3D patch - well, to be honest I'm not sure I have this yet. I've looked but can't find such a thing for Fallout 1 - all I can find is the High-Resolution patch. Though it's not indicated in the readme, does the HR patch actually also provide a D3D patch? Advice would be welcomed here.
