andregurov Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 As a woefully uneducated computer illiterate, will this game - downloaded from Steam, Desura, or Gog - run on a MacBook Pro (OS X 10.7.5) WITHOUT needing Windows installed? Nothing I've read states that Windows is needed for it to run on Mac, but I would like to be certain … so I can go ahead, buy it and start playing tomorrow. Thanks for any help or advice. I've been Xeno-combat free ever since my PC died several years ago and we moved to Mac & I became a dirty console peasant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andregurov Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 I'd read everything I could on the Mac build/version; because the blog post references Linux needing VINE, it was unclear if Mac requires it as well. Not that I know what VINE is … Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thither Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 You're thinking of Wine, which is a way to run Windows programs on Mac or Linux. You don't need to install Wine yourself, you'll just either install the game through steam or download a setup disk image as usual. The Mac build is currently working pretty well, though it has some rough edges and missing features. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
