54mbps Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 OK. I have a problem. I would like to get Halo 2 running on my macbook pro, but i have no idea to begin. I would prefer not to spend any more money than just buying the CD. P.S I would like to know if it would be easier to emulate Halo 2 Vista or simply to emulate Halo 2 (xbox) Any help would be greatly appreciated. PPS: I only have 64mb RAM and Halo 2 Vista requires 128mb Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/55193-halo-2-on-mac/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
hecker Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 Well, if you have such little VRAM then I guess the point is probably mute. But in theory I think you should be able to install Vista via BootCamp and then install Halo 2 on top of that. hecker Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/55193-halo-2-on-mac/#findComment-394895 Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaronsadowsky Posted June 25, 2007 Share Posted June 25, 2007 some company is also making compatibility updates for XP so Halo 2 can run on XP, dunno how it will work w/ bootcamp though http://nikon.bungie.org/news.html?item=18626 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/55193-halo-2-on-mac/#findComment-395165 Share on other sites More sharing options...

EFI Posted June 26, 2007 Share Posted June 26, 2007 64MB VRAM on a Macbook Pro? Thats impossible. Its either 128Mb or 256Mb. Did you mean the Macbook (not the Pro)?

vin Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 64MB VRAM on a Macbook Pro? Thats impossible. Its either 128Mb or 256Mb. Did you mean the Macbook (not the Pro)? yep. if it's macbook, don't bother to play those advance 3D games..

Stony Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 Was this now an Mac verions of Halo or an emulated Windows game? I saw now emulation program or something. And how can I install a Wii Mode on Mac? Thats quite interesting.

OMX-Knuckles Posted June 28, 2007 Share Posted June 28, 2007 A GMA-950 wouldn't be much good for Halo 1, let alone Halo 2. I'd imagine you'd need a pretty good graphics card for that- my 8800 handles it fine but that's not saying much. I'll try H2 with my Dell when the 6800GT gets here and see how it handles.

vbetts Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 According to the requirements for Vista, you're pc rating needs to be at a 3 to run halo 2 with decent frames.test post right quick Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/55193-halo-2-on-mac/#findComment-404978 Share on other sites More sharing options...

sportman Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 should be interesting I will try and give it agoIt seems most of the workarounds to get halo running on xp require a type of bat file or a loader file to load the halo 2 exe I am reading up on it.
