Installing/running wine on amd64 system

[Bob Willcox]

I've been trying to get my head around what I need to do to be able to install
and run wine on a FreeBSD 10.1-stable amd64 system without much success (or
progress).

I read and followed the some of the steps that I found here:

https://wiki.freebsd.org/i386-Wine

but didn't really understand what I was doing, and it didn't work, spewing
this:

Updating wine repository catalogue...
pkg: http://distcache.FreeBSD.org/local-distfiles/dbn/repos/wine/FreeBSD:10:amd64/latest/meta.txz: Not Found
pkg: repository wine has no meta file, using default settings
pkg: http://distcache.FreeBSD.org/local-distfiles/dbn/repos/wine/FreeBSD:10:amd64/latest/packagesite.txz: Not Found
pkg: Unable to update repository wine

So, I guess my first question is: is what I'm trying to do make any sense? At
this point I'm not sure if this is an exercise in futility or not.

Does anybody have any tips or pointers on what I should be doing here? Is it
possible to be able to install wine on an amd64 system, and will it be worth
it? (I'd like to be able to play some 3D games on it).

Thanks for any help in advance,
Bob
