Re: Is it on mac

Taken from the FAQ:

6. Are you coming out with a Linux/Mac/Android/IOS/PS3/Commodore 64 version

Windows PC Only I'm afraid, Its a big enough project already without having to worry about other platforms!

Re: Is it on mac

No he hasn't... you can always dual-boot, that makes it run on Macs. But no, there will be no dedicated version.

As long as they are used in proper context: of course not! Otherwise: yes.

Re: Is it on mac

If anyone tries out WINE I'd appreciate it if they'd report back to us and let us know how well it works/if it works at all. As it'd be really useful to be able to tell people if they can/can't use WINE.

Re: Is it on mac

I tried it on my MacPro Early 2009 with os 10.8, but i was running in some problems with the .net framework which seems to be a problem in wine.
Do you use .net in the hole game or only in the launcher part? If it is only the launcher there is a good chance to run Automation
on osx using wine, if you can get rid of .net.

Re: Is it on mac

Any chance of getting a direct installer instead of a downloader? i think that may help quite a bit with getting it working under Wine.
