Hey, I ran those commands in Terminal and got the exact outputs. Confirming I also followed the same steps you outlined; I downloaded the dmg file after paying the $2.99 and it took me to a link where I downloaded 

UWUVCI-V3.200.6-Mac

I used chatgpt to also help troubleshoot, and it suggested this. Let me know if this helps.

The Wine binary itself looks correct (file and otool -L match expected output).
However, the crash report shows macOS is executing Wine from /private/var/folders/.../wine, not directly from the app bundle.
On macOS 26.2 (Apple Silicon, Rosetta), dyld aborts with missing LC_LOAD_DYLIB even though libSystem.B.dylib is present when inspected in-place.
This looks like a translocation / runtime copy issue with Kegworks on newer macOS rather than a malformed binary.

Fuller chatgpt convo:

What’s actually happening

This is a macOS 26 dyld regression / enforcement change:

• otool confirms the binary does link libSystem

• dyld is still rejecting it at runtime

• This happens before Wine even executes

In other words:

The binary passes static inspection
but fails runtime validation on your macOS version

That’s why the dev can’t reproduce it.

The subtle smoking gun in your crash report

This line:

Process: wine Path: /private/var/folders/*/wine 

That means:

• macOS is not launching the Wine binary in the app bundle

• It’s launching a temporary extracted copy

• That temp copy loses Mach-O metadata when dyld revalidates it

This is a Kegworks / app translocation issue on newer macOS.

Why only you (and newer macOS users) see it

macOS 26 added stricter checks when:

• Executables are launched from translocated paths

• Or copied into temp folders at runtime

• Especially under Rosetta

So:

• wine in the app bundle = valid

• wine copied to /private/var/folders/... = rejected

Older macOS doesn’t care. New macOS does.
