Title: MacBook - Intel Core 2 Duo... UAE?
Post by: AndyC on March 28, 2008, 04:58:47 PM

Hi all,

I was just wondering if there was a version of UAE that will run on Mac OS X (Leopard)?

I've just bought a base model MacBook, which was primarily for mobile internet and entertainment capabilities.

However, I was hoping to get UAE up and running on it so that I could play some old games on the move ;-).

If anyone has any idea if this is possible, I'd be much obliged!

Cheers,

AndyC

Don't forget to download Hi-Torro for a nice GUI :-)

If not bootcamp/parallels and use WinUAE

Or you can take the EVIL way out, like I did, and dual boot your MacBook into Windows so you can use WinUAE, which is more mature and has better features and compatibility as well as performance than EUAE. :lol:

@amigadave

Thanks again all...

I've considered bootcamp, but that would involve finding a copy of windows to install.

I have WinUAE on my PC, and to be honest I just fancied some basic, fun games to play on the mac when on the train or whatever.

In the meantime, i've installed ScummVM with Beneath a Steel Sky and Flight of the Amazon Queen - both of which are the CD-Rom "talkie" versions - and seeing as I never owned either, i'm really enjoying playing them now. They should at least give me several hours of play!
