Cyman Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 here is a proove Most Wanted works too. Here is how to do it! --HOWTO-- 1. you need and NFS Installed Cracked version (no-cd crack!!!) 2. download Heroes of Might of Magic V for osx (search ussaul places) 3. apply crack on it and see if is running (if it does your good to go) 4. Do show package contents on the heroes app and go to "Contents/Resources/trnasgamming/c_drive/Program Files/" and put there Your Need For Speed installed game 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) 6. Open Info.plist from Contents folder and change Cedega Game dir and Name to: <key>CedegaGameDir</key> <string>c:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Need for Speed Most Wanted</string> <key>CedegaGameName</key> <string>c:\Program Files\Electronic Arts\Need for Speed Most Wanted\speed.exe</string> Or what's the folder you put in transgamming/c_drive/program files/ Save the file, cross your fingers and click the application. Let me know if it works, and if you have other questions. I suppose you also need Cedega to get the trick to work. Can you tell us where to download it for Mac (maybe I just didn't look carefully enough)? Anyway this would be very kind!

XQYZ Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 How about reading before posting? Heros uses cedega to let the game play on a mac. Inside there is the Windows Heros-Version. What he did (and what is kinda genius) is replacing heros with carbon. So it'l execute carbon insead of heros. That's really useful. But plase uplaod an empty version of the game (with nothing inside) because i really don't want to download 1.6gb of an (for me) unimportant game just to try it out and perhaps play some gta on my mac. Thanks and contrats to this very cool information!

Thanks and contrats to this very cool information! Instead of accusing me you can explain me how it should be obvious to suggest from the How-To posted that Cedega is indeed included in Heroes of Might and Magic V? Anyway I agree with your idea to upload just the basically necessary files and folders. If this is not easier, it is at least time saving for those who want to try this method.

XQYZ Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 First because he said to replace the content *inside* of heros and he also said it works via cedega. Second because Transgaming (The Procducer of cedega) mentions it on their website.

Cyman Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 The second argument seems more logic (or obvious) to me than the first. You still accused me of not reading the How-To which wasn't true and needed to be clarified by me.

Denicio Posted May 19, 2007 Share Posted May 19, 2007 I tested every Need for Speed game after NFS: Hot Pursuit 2, in my system nothing runs.
