Gunz on Macs

Why hasn't anyone made a GunZ compatible with macs?

do you even know how unbelievably hard that is to do?
using bootcamp to get windows on your mac takes 30minutes do that instead.

Why would someone wanna play GunZ on a mac. That is the real question.

isn't it common knowledge to know mac's are not compatible with games?

Cuz my laptop is done for >< and I'd rather not risk cutting my hard drive in half and ruining my mac. And I don't know how hard it would be...hence the question.

They aren't compatible with MOST games. Also hence the question. '-'

Macs are actually very powerful.


I have gathered this issue with someone before and it is easy to do.

Install and use WineBottle (http://winebottler.kronenberg.org/) if it's an Intel Mac. Otherwise you'll have to compile the Wine (http://www.winehq.com) source code.

if im not mistaken, winebottle can only turn .exe files to mac compatible .app

but fgunz is a folder, not just one .exe

so therefore the process to make it mac compatible would be extraneous.

Someone has already used it and confirmed it has worked. The whole folder doesn't need to be converted.

There is only one executable in gunz,
The thing it does is reading the files..
none of the files in the gunz folder are known windows files, they are customized..
so as long as the executable can read it, there is no problem, even if you convert it.
because all the code is in the executable and it only READS the other files.

so i assume we convert the fgunz launcher .exe to the app compatible?

I don't own an Mac, so I'm not sure how they install things. Mac is based of UNIX and Debian and the Wine Bottler is based of Wine. I don't think it actually converts considering that Wine INSTALLS programs on Linux.

There was another options that I did forget. CrossOver. It's another Wine port but it has full support for Mac.

And I'm going to assume that none of these change the mac to a form of windows?

Now I just need to get DirectX with the WineBottler app any help?

If you have a Mac your going to have to dual boot windows to play freestyle
