OOTP4 for Mac?

JML · 02-05-2002, 07:25 PM

I know Markus is working on a Mac version. Will it also be released on March 1st, or will there be a delay? I turned a friend at work onto OOTP, but he will be buying the Mac version.

I say he WILL BE BUYING, though he hasn't even checked out the website yet. There's no doubt in my mind that he will become as addicted as I am (and all of you are!)

It will not be released March 1st, but a bit later in the year. No release date has been set as far as I know.

BUMP...

Is there still plans for a MAC version in the works? I have not been able to successfully install OOTP4 using Virtual PC.

What is the expected release date of OOTP4 for the MAC?

OOTP4 likely will not work with Virtual PC because of E-Liscence stuff... STB might though...

I don't know how virtual pc works on a mac, but it works on Linux with WINE. Even the e-license stuff.

I have used both OOTP2 and OOTP3 via e-license so I would be surprised if that is the problem this time with Virtual PC.

I only have the capability of 4meg of Video RAM using Virtual PC, so I assume this is the problem. If it is a system requirement issue, then STB would not work either.
If the game was coded for the MAC I would not be running into this issue.
Any update on the progress of this version would be appreciated.
