FeralHeart on MAC Hints and Tips
« on: January 07, 2011, 02:02:28 am »
Raz edit: Pickup a ready to go mac port of FeralHeart here

Firstly. THERE IS CURRENTLY NO NATIVE APP of FeralHearts. In simpler terms, there is no Mac client as of yet. It is still in development/being thought about. So dont go looking for the mac version. It doesn't exist.

1. Download FeralHeart (straight forward)
2. Download Crossover: http://www.codeweavers.com/products/cxgames/download_trial/
There is a trial version available. I have the full version. Its a cheap, but very impressive application. If you don't want to pay for it, you can always try and be sneaky and download it from somewhere. Thats up to your own discretion. You could also try WINE. here is a very handy tutorial http://davidbaumgold.com/tutorials/wine-mac/ on how to install and use wine. However, you have to be rather skilled in using and understanding the terminal. Crossover makes things a hell of a lot easier.
3. Once you have your FeralHeart file downloaded, open up crossover games.

From the menu you will click Configure > Install Software

In the first part you will click "other application"
In the second part locate your installer. In this case FHsetup.exe
Create a new winxp bottle. Name it whatever you want. I called mine Feralheart.
Then press proceed.

Crossover will start to make things happen. Soon enough the FeralHeart installer will pop up. Just flick through that. Press Next. yes. Whatever. Just agree to it all :)

4. Now that it is completed. In your menu, Press Programs (FeralHeart, or, whatever you called your bottle) and open up the program. it should run as normal. And
THERE WE GO!

Enjoy.

KNOWN GLITCHES
Both Razmirz and I have issues with the background music. its rather glitchy and funny. I dont know how to fix that. Just mute the background music and slap on some itunes. C:

I hope this has helped. Let me know if you come across any issues. Ill try and work on a WINE tutorial soon.

Thanks for this, Raven!  For all my technical prowess, CrossOver still confused the heck out of me, hahah.

Great. I got a Mac 10.4 and can't download CrossOver, AND I'm not that skilled to download Wine. .___.

Wrong thread for this, but that's currently not known.  As far as I know, the server is having trouble keeping up with all the people who want to play, and Kovu's trying to fix it.  It'll be up when it's up.  ^^
