G-Force Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 Battlefield 2142 Demo works without graphics corruption, but it has a slow framerate on my iMac. I can also play online. Bit weird that BF 2142 actually works and BF2 doesn't (well, that's my experience).

Cacicia Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 I'm using the latest Cider but anyway, I found the problem: I had to crack HOMMV before hacking the original package PS: trying to run PES6 (just hacking hte info.plist file) return me this error "Pro Evolution Soccer 6 - This game is not properly installed"; there is something I can try to get this running?

cyclonefr Posted June 16, 2007 Share Posted June 16, 2007 Try to add the registry info into the reg files since installing this game adds registry entries.

fobis Posted June 17, 2007 Share Posted June 17, 2007 yeah, that sucksthey stold my ideea and now they say they are the hottest... sucks While your idea to use the Cider wrapper from HOMMV was pretty cool, it's not like EA really stole your idea. Cider in itself is a product by Transgaming so that gaming publishers could use Cider to create Mac versions of any game they wanted.

Cyman Posted June 18, 2007 Share Posted June 18, 2007 I tried to make Diablo Hellfire run with Cider- basically I tried it with two different versions, the X3 and the HOMMV version. Maybe I didn't make it right or it just doesn't work (I don't know if it works at all with old games like this one). Could anyone else test it, please? If it's successful I would like to have a step by step How-To, too.

algurgazan Posted June 20, 2007 Share Posted June 20, 2007 i'm trying to get gta:sa to work.. and graphically it works just fine, but i still got the problem of the mouse centering itself all the time, making the game unplayable.. so i searched for it for a while, and found the bug on the winex pages, with a bugfix.. http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1410 apparently i have to make nomousecenter true in the registry somehow, but i'm wondering if the same fix is built in cider and how i get it to work.. i tried adding "NoMouseCenter" = "Y" to the config file in different places, but so far i couldn't get it to work.. anybody here know something i don't?

swistak Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Hi I've messed around a little with GTA: SA and got it to work graphically just fine (albeit a bit on a sluggish side). Now we just need somebody to fix mouse centering issue.

slum100 Posted June 30, 2007 Share Posted June 30, 2007 First of all, thanks for a great find! I made an attempt at trying to run a game that I've always wanted to play on the Mac, but haven't been able to (until now). The only problem I have is that the graphics are somewhat messed up (see screenshots below). This is what it looks like: And this is how it's supposed to look: Do any of you have any tips on how I can better configure Cider to get it more like the real thing? Thanks in advance, appreciate it a lot!

Cyman Posted July 2, 2007 Share Posted July 2, 2007 I don't know if I am just doing something wrong or if the games I test just don't work. I have tried it with Colin McRae DiRT yesterday but have had no success, just like with Hellfire.

Данчо Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 hi guys, i have a 13' MacBook 2GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, 1 GB 667 Mhz DDR2 SDRAM. I installed NFS Carbon according to the instructions (version 1.2) and it runs fine until after the videos, but once I enter the main menu, it's EXTREMELY slow! The mouce moves an inch only every couple of seconds, and the res is set only to 640x480. The menu works, but I didn't have the patience to start loading a race. Any idea why this is happening? Maybe my mac is too slow for the game? Or Direct X problems... dll's..?
