I know this topic has probably been beaten to death, but the solutions are all constantly changing and being outdated, and every case is different, so I thought I'd come here for some help.
I used every RPG Maker ever released on a PC, but when I got a Mac I had the Windows Parallels for a couple years until that stopped working (the version I got was no longer being supported... Or something.) And then I could only rely on the PCs on the school campus. Well, now I've graduated and it's just me and my Mac.
Now I know there are a plethora of ways to install RPG Makers (I'm specifically interested in VX) on a Mac, but there is a common problem I've been running into.
All RPG Maker installers come in two parts. The actual software and the RTP. When I've tried something like CrossOver or WineBottler, everything works seemingly perfectly until I try to launch the program, at which point it tells me the RTP is not installed. The folders for the RMVX system files and the RTP are installed in at least 3 places on my Mac, but somehow these "Windows on a PC" tricks can't seem to handle the whole RTP thing.
All the tutorials on how to run RPG Makers on a mac are from years ago, Wine is a completely different app then it was in 2009.
So does anyone know a way, now in 2014, to run RPG Maker VX on a Mac?
(This is doubly annoying since I don't even plan on using ANY of the RTP graphics anyway.)

Well I'm not sure since I've avoided Macs like the plague. But since Steam is selling rpgmvx I would suggest go there to ask about it. There is usually someone helpful around that place.
