Burgeoning Battle Gamma DweezelManSam Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 I dont think I can run my old spiderweb games on my new Dual Intel chipped iMac... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garrulous Glaahk Mr.Bookworm Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Nope. Intel Macs don't support Classic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Lilith Posted June 11, 2006 Share Posted June 11, 2006 Newer Spiderweb games that run natively under OS X should run fine on Intel Macs, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 You could always get the Windows versions and run them in the Windows mode. Although it might be a waste of money just to have them all on one machine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted June 12, 2006 Share Posted June 12, 2006 Actually, the older Spiderweb games can probably run on one of the variety of Mac on Mac emulators available. That's cheaper and easier than putting Windows on your computer with Boot Camp. Or, since no Spiderweb games use 3D graphics, you can play them with Parallels and play the Windows versions in virtual Windows on your Mac. —Alorael, who will be holding onto his G4 for a while.

Easygoing Eyebeast ben4808 Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 OR just get Windows. But maybe that's out of the question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatchling Cockatrice Alorael at Large Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 That's what Randomizer and I both said. —Alorael, who really can't see any reason to get an entirely extraneous computer just to have a separate box for the Windows.

Hatchling Cockatrice Randomizer Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 Today's Wall Street Journal has a review of Parallels Desktop. The Windows emulator currently doesn't support 3D graphics, but it should be upgraded in the next version for gamers. Parallels supports Windows going back to version 3.1, Linux, and OS/2.
