Hello!
I'm Phinix, originally from Gorfang; then Badlands. I am wondering if I can download this on my iMac. If anyone knows how, I'd be thankful.

Missing you!



Phinix P.

You.


Good to have you back! Unfortunately, we don't have the Mac client working yet. It's underway, but there's no ETA on getting it done.

I got my hands on an OS X installation of WAR a few weeks ago, and took a look at it. Turns out, Mythic never actually made a native OS X client for WAR. They used a product by Transgaming called Cedega, which is a proprietary version of Wine, a windows compatibility layer application for Unix, to run the windows game client.
The problem is, I don't feel comfortable distributing the included Cedega installation, even though it might be discontinued.

What you could do is install the latest Wine packages, or compile Wine from source, and run the game that way. https://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX explains what you have to do.
After installing/compiling, check this thread to see what some linux users did to get the game working with Wine.


I can't promise you it'll work well or even at all, because I haven't tested this myself.
