Hi guys
I've been searching for a while and couldn't find a recent document on how to get this game working on a MAC so I thought I would list it here. ![]() ![]() ![]() Here's the versions of the software used: - MAC OS LION (10.7.4) - Wineskin (winery) (1.6) - Wineskin installed engine (WS9Wine1.4.1NoXInput2) - IL 2 Sturmovik 1946 v4.11.1m - HSFX 6.0 I didn't experiment with other engines but I think it's very important to have the wine version and setup that works with the mouse. After that it's just a matter of creating a new wrapper for the game. Notes: I have the steam version but didn't use windows steam on the mac. I have a slow windows laptop that I used to download the game with steam and ultra patched it to version 4.11.1m. Then I downloaded HSFX 6.0 and patched that in on the windows machine. I just copied the whole IL 2 Sturmovik 1946 folder to my mac and later imported it to my IL wine wrapper. On the joystick side I have a saitek x45. MAC doesn't seem to have a joystick calibration utility and saitek doesn't seem to have driver for mac. Amazingly it's all calibrated in IL. I have no idea how I could be that lucky ![]() I still have the wine menu bar on top of my IL game but it's not very distracting. I had to autohide the dock becausse when the game runs it's exactly where a lot of in game buttons are and it's ugh broader than the menu bar. Still trying to get some FPS numbers but it looks a lot smoother on my MAC than on my PC laptop. I hope this helps people in similar positions as I Happy flying! |
