The machine I am running from is a MacBook Pro (15-inch, early 2011) with macOS Sierra. PlayOnMac isn't a magical do-it-all program sadly. What it does is use Wine to create a separate mini-universe (wrapper) for each program you install (or multiple programs on one wrapper). Each wrapper provides you with all the simple components needed to run a Windows program, but it's up to the user to install the rest of the needed components to make the program of choice to run. The problem with installing just SWTOR is that once you install it, it won't run because it's missing several core components required for the game to run. You will have to install all of these components on the same wrapper you will have SWTOR installed on. Thankfully, PlayOnMac provides a special menu from which you can install all of the required things to run the game, so you don't have to go scavenging for them from different websites. Please make sure to reread each step at least three times to make sure everything is correct. If at any point, a window comes up that says that rundll32.exe failed, ignore and close the error.
