Only with bootcamp. install windows xp in other hd, or other partition, then install rfactor.

We've tried rFactor once with Cider (it was the GTR2 cider version). We came into the game, but there was a problem with the profile-path. (rFactor always asked to create a driver profile, and when you did that, nothing happened) Maybe someone could try rFactor again with Cider. I would help.

I'd be willing to give it another go, although I have to admit the game is a lot more fun with the G25, something I'm not having any luck getting to work properly in OS X at all!

I'm going to set up my Hackintosh right now and i'll give it another try.

ill try it in around 9 hrs from now using VMWare fusion.

Also, @Shambler, if u can get Vista/XP/whatever drivers for your G25, which wont be impossible, you can probably play it inside VMWare fusion as it is basically like running windows (a better version of Parallels).
I play an old game called Rally Masters with my Logitech Driving Force GT and it works fine, tho the game is so old theres no force feedback.

EDIT:
Heres my results:

Menu works, u can see the 3D car and everything no glitches.
Starting a race... works... BUT when the race starts, all u see is an epileptic white flashing screen.

EDIT2:

Just tried rFactor with Crossover 8.0 and it works.

Until now no messed up screens. After the rFactor installation you must copy the profile directory (UserData) from another existing rFactor windows installation, otherwise you have a blackscreen when you have to create a profile (but u can hear the sound ;-).

Some screens:

x0a,

i tried to install rFactor on my crossover 8 and i couldn't get it to work. the config program runs but seems to never save any settings. if i run it through the "run command" it saves the settings. rFactor on the other hand just opens up in a white blank window and stays that way. rFactor version i'm using is 1255.

how did you get it to work? any special installs? any dll overrides ? i'm on an mbpro using 10.5.7. thanks.
