blslivewire Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Any chance of this ever happening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Ryland Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 You can play them with an emulator. In terms of native support, that is never going to happen, at least for my games - I don't own a Mac, and the games are written in a Microsoft language.

Derek DiBenedetto Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 For my games, my current language i'm using for Finish Line has a Mac compiler built in (it's a multi-platform language), but it would require some special fine tuning interface and design wise, and given the small size of the Mac gaming market, it probably isn't really worth the time to invest in it, IMHO. My other games have been reported to work fine with WINE, as far as I know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Just use Wine software, or Parallels, VMWare, CrossOver. The games work perfectly fine with these methods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnowYourEnemy Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 Would it be possible to provide us with a how-to guide to get TEW 2016 running in WINE (or other windows emulators)? Will it be different from TEW 2013? I've gotten the tutorial to work for 2013 easily. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted March 27, 2016 Share Posted March 27, 2016 It will be identical. Since Adam hasn't announced that the language it has been written in hasn't changed, so there won't be any changes to getting it working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blslivewire Posted July 14, 2016 Author Share Posted July 14, 2016 Is there any emulator that is preferred or best for Grey Dog games when using a Mac? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StrongStyle Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I've tried using everything to get TEW working on my mac and I finally broke down and bought crossover. It's the easiest method and worth the money if you think easy is nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d12345 Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 There's a tutorial for making a Wineskin for Total Extreme Wrestling 2016 in the TEW general discussion forum. Not sure how similar the method is for the other GDS games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how similar the method is for the other GDS games. For other Ryland titles it will be identical. I can't speak for the others not knowing what they were made with.

CorporateLooseCannon Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 thanks for this info, I've been looking for a way too. What I've been doing and its fine with me, others may see it as lame, but I have the software up and running on my server pc (which I always keep on) in my loft.. and then run team view via my macbook pro. I can sit on the couch, and enjoy the game with no issues. Always connects, always works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superheater Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Just echoing what some others have said here, I run TEW in Parallels in coherence mode on my Mac. In coherence mode, TEW opens right up in its own window while I continue to use all my other Mac-based apps normally. It's a super easy way to play TEW on a Mac - well worth it if you have a few bucks to spend on the licensing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
