    Have you thought about using Mac's Bootcamp to dual boot OS-X and Windows XP?

    i encourage this
    would love to see pwi for mac
    Sure there are options like bootcamp or parallels etc but it isn't the same
    And running games without those is way better and less troublesome

    This would definately be awesome! I have a mac right now.. and i run pwi on bootcamp and i hate it. The game runs flawlessly.. but i have to restart my computer everytime i wanna play pwi, and then restart everytime i need to do anything else since my windows only has pwi.

    I'm trying to get PWI running on my Mac right now. I've installed Windows Vista Ultimate using Bootcamp, and it's encouraging to hear that someone has gotten it to work! I will persevere. I'm updating my Direct X right now, hoping that's the problem. Already checked all the relevant drivers... argh.

    If it doesn't work after that, I give up. b:surrender

    Don't have to be a geek to check youtube.
    It's not my job to shut you down on a suggestion. It's a pleasure, though.

    No, because Macs fail. b:victory

    you do have to be a geek. and even then, chance are (if your experience is anything like mine) it won't work.


    PWI running in a winxp bottle in Crossover -- fail.
    PWI running in a winxp bottle in Crossover Games -- fail.
    PWI running in a winxp virtual machine in Parallels Desktop -- fail
    PWI running in a win7 virtual machine in Parellels Desktop -- fail
    PWI running in a winxp virtual machine in VirtualBox -- fail

    Notice a trend here? The amount of hours I have spent trying to get this game going in a playable fashion (installed, maybe. but where i can actually move, or interact with NPCs? nope.) exceed the number of hours of my longest vacation in the last 2 years.

    I should be getting paid for this.
    Either that, or I should stop being friends with anyone who games on anything but a mac platform, because its a nightmare trying to find a game that is both mac and pc compatible (and isn't WoW).

    it may take a geek to do that... but it also takes stupidity to necro a thread
