![]() ![]() Pretty sure they have a mac version of WINE now, right? Check out Http://Metalfrenchtoast 20:24, Ma(UTC) Crossover uses WINE, at any rate, and WINE is pretty good with older games. ![]() It's free and it's the same thing as crossover pretty much. ![]() Anyway, hope all that answers your question - MaulYoda 05:44, Ma(UTC)ĭude, just get WINE. In fact, they seemed to run a bit more smoothly than the PC versions. Before I updated to 10.6 without realizing that the original Fallouts wouldn't run, I can tell you that I played my copies of the Mac port of both Fallout 1 and Fallout 2 extensively, and they worked flawlessly. If you did that, the original Fallouts would run fine. There is another option though, and that would involve formatting your hard drive and then installing OS 10.5 on your Mac instead of 10.6. Other than that, you can wade it out until Apple or somewhat at Omnigroup (who ported the games) updates the original Fallouts to run on OS 10.6, or until they're ported to the iPhone or something (which I think would be awesome and would completely work and could be done) However, that's your only option right now (other than installing Windows XP or Vista onto your Mac through Boot Camp or a virtual PC program), but you still need the Windows versions of the games for either. Your Mac does have to be Intel-based (which it is), so this should work for you. ![]() Additionally, this should allow you to play Fallout Tactics, although I tried and it didn't work, but it you may fare better if you have more experience with these kinds of programs. Fallout 2 runs kind of sluggish though, but Fallout works like a charm from what I've read from user feedback. However, there is a program called Crossover that, if you buy the Windows versions, you could install them on your Mac and buy Crossover, which would allow you to play them. Fallout and Fallout 2 were ported to the Mac, but aren't compatible with OS 10.6. If it does, then I don't really know - not much of a Mac person. I don't play Fallout, on look on the back of the box - if it doesn't mention OS X, it's for Classic OS and won't run on Leopard (or higher) or Intel Macs. I don't want to open it to find out that it won't work (because then I can't sell it for as much).ĭoes anyone know if it will work in 10.6.2? I've heard that Snow Leopard will not support it, but I'm not sure if that was corrected with 10.6.2. I have in my hands a factory-sealed copy of the Mac version of Fallout 2. I have a MacBook Pro, 2.33 GHz Cure 2 Duo, running OS 10.6.2. ![]()
