OS X :: Homeworld 2 Game Not Working On My Mac?
May 22, 2009
I just got the Homeworld 2 game for my macbook, and installed it without issue. However, when I tried to run it I got an "unexpected error". I then tried to restart my computer, but now it will not turn on fully (I get a grey screen).
I checked the system requirements on the box and found that my macbook surpassed each one greatly. How do I 1. get my mac to actually turn on fully now (yes, I tried turning it on in safe mode by holding the power button), and 2. get Homeworld 2 to run on mac.

Recently I bought Europa Universalis III for Windows, to play on my MacBook. I have partitioned my hard drive for Windows XP. My specs are: 2,4 GHz, 2GB RAM, Intel GMA X3100 graphics card.
The problem is that when the intro has started, it is choppy. About halfway in the intro it just crashes out to desktop. I am way above game requirements, so why does the game not start properly?
Or more generally, do the requirements change on the PC version, compared to the Mac version?

Okay, well I am about to buy a PC game which is very much like 'The Sims' but is actually Desperate Housewives - The Game. I have three macs, two of which are intel-based. If I wanted to play this game on my Macbook what would I need to do? Install anything? Has anyone done anything similar?

I've just downloaded a game that requires x11 (freeciv). since I am running 10.4.11, I also had to download and install x11. I managed that, but now I am confused as to how to get the game to run. can someone explain to me in straightforward terms how to open the game. I've tried just clicking on it, but it shuts down straight away.

I have a MBP with Snow Leopard and I cant figure out how to take screenshots in a game (Starcraft 2). I've tried both command+shift+3 and 4 but they don't seem to work, normally it saves a picture on my desktop but when I do this in a game nothing happens.

I'm not really a heavy gamer or anything, but I'm planning a few long flights in the coming weeks and considering getting some 'entertainment' in advance for use on the flight. As I've seen mixed reviews of games on the Air so far, I'm wondering if anyone can post games that they've used on the Air that perform reasonably well and are worth getting.

I just bought a windows dvd game of Toca 3, and my iMac superdrive won't load it. The drive will try and spin up, make a groaning noise a couple of times, then eject the disk. I have tried the same disk in a friends MacBook Pro, and 2 friends PCs and there drives read the disk perfectly. I have tried the disk in both windows and mac, and neither will read the disk. I have also tried cleaning the disk. My iMac is a 2.4ghz Aluminium 20incher... any help would be much appreciated, as i am currently having to use my friends MacBook Pro (unibody) to play the game and he is getting a little anoyed!!

I have a whitebook, 64 mg intel gma950 chipset, and 2gb ram. XP is running on bootcamp and I was wondering if I could play the game "DJ Max Trilogy" before I bought it. According to the specs you need at least a Geofre 5700 which I think is 128 mb. Anyways, I've bought a few other games off of play-asia that had those same specs, but ran perfectly on my macbook. Can anyone confirm if this game will also work?

MacBook pro 2,8 with Nvidia 9600 512, 4 gb ram and OS 10.6
I'm trying to learn how to install games on this OS.. (i must add that the games i'm trying to install are downloaded and cracked).. i have had to install parallel and install my version on win7 so that i can use the office 2007 (to write equations and so on)
The main question is.. Can i play games by installing them in Win7 and play them through parallel? Or is there a special way where i can play games on Snow leopard without using parallel? (besides from the obivious answer, "buy mac games")

I recently bought Fallout 3 for the computer. It says that it is a "Games for Windows" game but I need to run it on my Mac (specs are in my signature). I have the newest version of VMware Windows XP and when I put the game in it automatically opens it up. When I try to play the game it works for the menu but the screen goes black when I click start and after a few seconds it goes back to the desktop. I have not done anything with boot camp assistant if that is important.

I am having issues (again) with my superdrive..it keeps spitting out DVD's and CD's...I have a game that I always play and was hoping I could find a way to play it without having to put the DVD in the computer. It says I need to insert the DVD to play the game but is there any program out there that will let me 'mount' the DVD permanently on the computer so that I don't need to have the DVD in my Macbook Pro? It's just a pain that I keep having to insert the DVD 5 times before the computer accepts it (plus I don't really always want to have to carry the DVD around with me whereever I go.

On the CD it says its only compatible for Windows 31, Windows 95 and Macintosh. i have a PowerMac G5 and I really want to have my sister play it.
I was thinking of buying VM Ware maybe it would work that way but I still dont know if it will play on something over advanced for it. What program can I buy to Play this OLD cd?

I'm soon to acquire a used 17" iMac G5 for our daughter who's been using my 20" Intel (running OS 10.5.8) for the past couple years. She has several game applications with lots of play time invested, all saved for her next session. What is the procedure to entirely copy and/or export all these game files (notably SPORE) from my computer onto hers with no loss of data or saved places? My intent is to copy any and all game files I can find onto DVD's or CD's and copy THEM onto the G5 desktop or HD, and when they're safely installed, trash all that's on my computer, bogging it down. Will this work? We're out in the sticks, no way to experiment with this, hence my question not wanting a very irate daughter on my hands if it fails.
