shakaru Posted August 28, 2007 Share Posted August 28, 2007 DarWine wont work, as there is no sound support, or dx9 support. To be honest, I really really doubt that you going to get to play.

DrDeath Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Even if Darwine would work properly, it would be unplayable on your PPC Mac. The x86 emulation that Darwine (or any other Windows emulator for PPC Macs) uses is just too slow.

KennyTheGeek Posted December 19, 2007 Share Posted December 19, 2007 Windows emulators? There's no such thing! Emulators "simulate" hardware. Windows is software, therefore not emulated. Also, ever thought of what WINE is an abbreviation for? "Wine Is Not an Emulator" WINE doesn't emulate, it simply makse the windows-api's available in the OS WINE is running in (In this case Mac OS X).

"Wine Is Not an Emulator" WINE doesn't emulate, it simply makse the windows-api's available in the OS WINE is running in (In this case Mac OS X). On a PPC Mac, such as the OP's G5, emulation of an Intel (x86) system is required to run Windows software. The now-defunct Virtual PC is a full emulator.
