I got the official C&C3 on my disk and I want to try the included Cider version with BF2142 (BF2142 runs with Cider X3, but it is only playable on 800x600 with low settings. Also I want to try BF2). The problem is, it asks for a serial and it doesn't work right. Someone here that can strip those functionalities from the package so it's usable with other games? Any help appreciated.

also... this is the right way to put into Info.plist

 

<key>CedegaGameDir</key>
<string>C:\Program Files\Empire Earth</string>
<key>CedegaGameName</key>
<string>c:\Program Files\Empire Earth\Oblivion.exe</string>

 

 

this is if you indeed out it in this folder

Contents/Resources/transgaming/c_drive/Program Files/

so why do i put oblivion.exe and is the empire earth.exe supposed to be a text file or wat

That was just a typo. You'd put Empire Earth.exe.

 

<key>CedegaGameDir</key>

<string>c:\Program Files\Empire Earth</string>

<key>CedegaGameName</key>

<string>c:\Program Files\Empire Earth\empire earth.exe</string>

 

Don't put any of that "Contents/Resources/transgaming/c_drive/" stuff, and don't use forward slashes; use back slashes. In other words, copy and paste the above text into your info.plist file. Now, I'm not sure if the executable is actually called "empire earth.exe." You'll have to check that out.

 

btw, the exe file is the central program file for the game. There may be other program files (dll files) and everything else is the game's data (maps, graphics, sounds, etc...).

GTA SA : I've tried all the mouse fix : The two entries in the config file (withe the file here in this forum), i've deleted all the programm including the preferences folder and reinstalled it... nothing. Always the same mouse problem... Is there a problem with a IMac 2 Ghz ?

 

Is there an other thing to do??

I just got NFS carbon OSX native Intel from usenet over 4GB. No more fuse just copy to my harddisk and it works flawlessly. I just need to change the config file to make it run windowed because I got blank fullscreen due to unsupported resolution. It works!

 

The game ports to Mac actually used Cider to work but it kicks ass because the game only use 30% of my CPU. :)
