Wargus MacOS Installation Issues #754

Hi, I am trying to install Wargus on my Mac.

I have the Wargus executable in /Applications/Wargus.
I have the third party extractorScript.sh that I got from here: Stratagus-Data-Extractor-Script in the same directory.
I have the files from the Warcraft II Battle.net Edition in the same directory, including the INSTALL.MPQ file.

I run the extractorScript.sh file like this:
zsh ./extractorScript.sh

The script runs successfully. echo $? returns 0.
It extracted the game files to ~/Library/Application\ Support/Stratagus/data.Wargus, but not ~/Library/Stratagus/data.Wargus.
I moved all the data to ~/Library/Stratagus/data.Wargus.
Then, I move the Wargus executable from /Application/Wargus to /Application and run it by clicking it. It gives me this error:

I've been working with DeepSeek and it is telling me to use mpq to manually extract it.

I wanted to check here first before doing that since the error window I got from Wargus suggested I do this.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
