Play on a MAC

Postby -_V_- » 21 Mar 2015, 19:43

Is it possible to play FA over FAF on a MAC, natively ?

Considering I couldn't play from Parallels on OSX, is there an alternative ?

You may get a lot informations for Wine from here: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=4507
But please don't ask for MAC Support in that thread =P

I got it working quite easily through Wine with that topic. Steam, FA and FAF all work nearly perfectly through Wine.

I don't know if it's hate, but at the very least it's simply false.

LMAO.

OSX is NOT Linux, it's DARWIN which is based upon UNIX.

UNIX != LINUX, which is some source of problems. If you wanna give me lessons, check ur shit first. :mrgreen:
