Quote from: "belthesar"
Hey all. I recently had the opportunity to play around with MM8BDM and had a blast. As I saw there wasn't a good OS X release due to some issues with Skulltag compiling for OS X, I decided to play around with getting it to run in a WINE implementation, and had excellent success. The difference between other WINE systems and the one I've used is that I'm using an implementation called Wineskin, which is designed to make a standalone wrapper for Windows applications on OS X. This means that people playing with Mac OS X can double-click and play without having to fiddle around and get the game working.
tl;dr - I'm hosting a no-mess solution to play MM8BDM on Mac OS X.
System Requirements:
Intel Mac- all versions of WINE require an X86 processor.
2 GB of RAM. MM8BDM isn't a system resource hog, but OS X can be.
As far as tested specs, this wrapper is known to work on a 2.4 GHz Core 2 Duo with 4 GB of RAM, and Mac OS X 10.6.7. It should run on earlier versions of Snow Leopard, and on Leopard, but I can make no guarantees. This current release does not include Doom Seeker, as I only played Single Player. I will be updating the package to include it soon.
