Ok guys I got it fixed and the icon is working (I had to convert it back and forth in the XCode icon editor)
I stripped the thing to its bare minimum I think, I'll do a few more tweak and upload it somewhere if you guys are interested.

are you talking about oblvion? Have you found anything on the mouse problem?
MacApprentice
No I talk about Cider, Oblivion is still a no go, I can't find what's wrong with the mouse, certainly a Cider bug/compiled flag.

OK so here it is : http://www.mediafire.com/?6duoynmjxo9

You just have to place your game dir in the c_drive then edit those in the info.plist

<key>CedegaGameDir</key>
<string>C:\Your-game-dir</string>
<key>CedegaGameName</key>
<string>C:\Your-game-dir\Your-game.exe</string>
<key>PrefsFolderName</key>
<string>Your-game</string>

And that's it.

hi, just checkin this post and very intresting. I just got a question. I have an IMAC with an external HD.
You say install it on C: ? how to do that with macosx. I have installed it on my external drive but how to link to that. I don't know if macosx uses C: or D: ? its just called xschijf
MacApprentice
C: refer to the c_drive directory inside the app package (rightclick on the Cider app and choose show content or something, my osx is in french)

Hi All!
Somebody could start STALKER?
OMX-Knuckles
I'll check STALKER out in the next week. I never was able to get Joint Operations to work- it whined that it wasn't installed properly, even when I transfered the registry keys. I've seen the error before on borked JO installs so I know it's the game and not Cider. On a sidenote, I'll have 250GB of storage online in the next few days, so I can build some torrents for the Cider support files.

Alright. I'm going to try SimTower and get back to you all. I know it's an old game, but it's a classic.
And I'm only doing this because SimTower Mac is only for PPC and will only run in Classic mode or OS 8/9.
...
EDIT: No dice for SimTower. I wonder if it's just because it's not a 3D application. That really shouldn't be the case as Cedega (the basis for Cider) is designed to run any Windows apps.
Also, going to try Star Wars: Battlefront later as well as Tribes 2.

FYI SimTower Windows runs under Crossover Office fine.

Status Report for a few Games:

FarCry: Works, problems on texture coloring, mouse not operating correctly (stutters a lot).
Richard Burns Rally: Perfecto!! Works 100%
sandmanfvrga
Wow, really interesting. Seems more and more game are coming along. I see in the last pages, Cider is used more, has anybody tried to take Cedega and compile it since it runs more games? I read most of it all, just wondering. My iBook won't run much but this could be awesome for later macs.
Malrefai
hey there.. i have tried and followed all the steps exactly as u wrote them.. when i double click on the application, it seems like its going to start.. like its loading.. then it says:

A debugger has been detected.
Unload the debugger and try again.


I am trying to run need for speed carbon.
What debugger? Im on 10.4.9, MacBook 13" if that helps?

Although, this step i didnt know what to do.. i couldnt find these dll files anywhere.. i assumed they were included with the Heroes download file u uploaded..
5. Copy this dlls from windows into c_drive/windows/system32/: d3d9_24.dll to d3d9_32.dll (you can find this dlls on the web too)

can u please help me out? thanks
gubbel
san andreas now working for my imac intel with the new package from suzuka with minor texture and graphic glitches.
@malrefai: when you use one of the package from the frontpage, you doesnt need the dll files. there are all in the package. you must edit the info.plist and the config
Malrefai
i editted the info.plist, but it gives me the debugging error.. i just downloaded the "new files" package, the one which has Cider.app ... i copied the NFSC folder into it... and now it doesnt give me debugging error, it just closes straight away..!

No I'm sorry, I should have updated my sig, I'm using an AMD 3500+ with ATi X1650 Pro now. GeForceFX5700 wasn't working with Cider.

Gerard Slee
malrefai..... go to ~/library/preferences/**the name of the game pref folder**/

open config in textedit and scroll down below the list of dll to this...


[Version]
; Windows version to imitate. Valid versions are: 'win20', 'win30', 'win31', 'win95', 'win98', 'winme', 'nt351', 'nt40', 'win2000', 'winxp'
"Windows" = "win98"
; DOS version to imitate
;"DOS" = "6.22"

change the win98 to winxp..... I had the same problem and this fixed it....
som3on3
sandmanfvrga, cider is cedega compiled for osx
Malrefai you need a NO-CD crack.
Also.. did you edited the info.plist to piont the name and executable to your game?
see first page
Malrefai
i probably do need one.. cuz i just tried the No-CD crack on parallels.. where it didnt work.. it used to automatically crash, so i didnt know... i editted the version and made it say 'win98'.. now it just takes a long time to load and gives me the same error.. can someone send me the NFSC.exe cracked application please? i couldnt find the NFSC no-cd cracks anywhere;/ i have restricted access to the web!;r

okay Now i editted the config file in the /User/Library/Preferences/game/config
i made the version winxp... the program runs.. no errors.. but it never opens.. does this game work on a Macbook?

No, it is not always kept up to date with Cedega's code. It is at most only as current as the release date of the game Cider was packaged with.
Malrefai
I just re-installed NFSC on Windows computer.. checked the crack.. definetely working.. there must be something u're doing that im not... i installed it.. added the crack.. crack works... i copied C:\program files\electronic arts folder all into the Heros of might blah.app....

how does this run on GMA 950?
Headrush69
Is there a method to enable debugging info like other Wine/Cedega run apps?
som3on3
nope, there is no method.
because cider was compiled without the debugger
MacSimilian
We should make a list of games which are supported/not fully supported or not supported at all.
Cyman
I second that and I also vote for sticky!




(Sorry for that post being OT.)
som3on3
i don't think that this should go sticky or something else
cause according to guys.. this is illegal sad.gif
and this sucks, because it's a solutions for people to play need for speed or oblivion or other games
and people not to know about it. Think about how many mac users are... and how many know that
they can play a game like nfs or other game on their macs.
it's a nice solutions, but...
anyway.. when i will get some free time
i iwll try to create a guy
for the config file biggrin.gif
so be easier to use...
also if i will get help from soem people i will try to amek and a game installer biggrin.gif
