Mac Users
 
Hello.

My friend would like to play but he asked me if this would work on his mac laptop.

Would it? How would we instal it to a mac? Is there a step by step I missed? Can we just follow the normal setup guide?

Thanks.

i play on a MacbookPo i did a windows partition with the bootcamp program (should be on his mac, or easily to download for free i think)

The program leads you to do a partition its veryy easy, hope he has the instalattion CD still cuz all the drivers are on it.

He would probably have to download the Titanium torrent

I play Titanium EQ on a LINUX box with WINE, so a Mac should be able to? Minor code change to get models working but thats easy to find on the net...

I'm trying to get WINE set up and EQ installed with it. Can you describe what this "minor" code change is regarding models? Or point me to a link?

I get to running the installation for EQ through WINE and it keeps giving me the error "You cannot install to the Windows directory. Please select another location." even though I am specifying other directories. :(

I use crossover games to run EQ while in MacOSX. The only strange problem I've run into is when it starts to rain in a zone it will make my client crash and I wont be able to log that character back in until the raining stops.

Now I've mostly been playing on a 50GB bootcamp partition under Win7.

So what I did was copy over the Everquest directory from my PC onto my mactop. I then ran the wine command from terminal "wine eqgame.exe patchme", and it worked like a charm.
