Re: A question to Devs regarding consumers' behaviour and DR

A surprising number of games I've purchased on Steam will run just fine if you launch their executables directly from the steamapps folder. This tends to be more often the case with indie and older titles. For exa...

Re: Oh-oh, How hosed am I?

Re: Run using WINE?

I got it running just fine without any extra configuration. Just check the box to install DirectX when you install the game, and then install the VCRedist.exe that comes with the game. I've got it running with max settings on my 2008 Macbook Pro.

Re: Want to pre-order, Mac user

Having some trouble getting it running in Wineskin at the moment. Seem to be DirectX related.

EDIT:
Forgot to install VCRedist. Running quite well in Wineskin on my 2008 Macbook Pro with all settings maxed.
