I'm using a program called VMware Fusion on my MacBook Pro--it's a PC emulator. I believe there's also a program called Parallels that will do the trick.

Tom Bombadil Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 REAL men buy a copy of windows primarily so they can use bootcamp and play TEW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucied Posted May 29, 2011 Share Posted May 29, 2011 justtxyank should be able to walk you through getting TEW to work on a Mac using Wine. I wrote the tutorial for Linux (which I recently updated and had it moved to the TEW2010 Tech Support forum *cheap plug*) and he more or less adapted that to the Mac. At one point he had a Mac tutorial, but unfortunately it was the victim of a regular Tech Support forum purge. Unfortunately, making it work on a Mac is more hassle than Linux, but it's cheaper than buying a copy of Windows to dual-boot or run a VM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubernoob Posted June 1, 2011 Share Posted June 1, 2011 I have Parallels on my MacBook Pro (which I'm using now) dual-booting WindowsXP... Runs perfectly for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
