-=Medic=- Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Wolfenstein enemy territory version 2.6 and higher ... there is no 2.55 version for mac os, so you can not play on FA#1 + etpub + hardcore + FA#02 (still testing but not supported yet for fa2) But you can play on FA#3 and FA Noquarter and ETPRO server Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoGooD Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Plus expect to have your fans spin up like crazy while your playing. I've tried playing 2.55 through parallels and 2.06b through OSX. From personal experience I tend to get kicked from 2.55 servers running PB probably due to the fact that PB see's the vid card as "generic" On 2.06b servers using OSX, It's just a matter of dealing with the noise. While I like macs, the vent system on the laptops is a joke. I use an acrylic cover on mine since it was used for school, which raised the temps up 2-4 C. Let us know how your battery times are. I'd be interested to see if the new battery layout has increased as much as Apple says it has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know im excited to play NQ again after 2 years As to the fans, I haven't noticed them, but maybe thats because I play with a headset. So as far as the etkey goes, i shouldn't copy and paste it?

So as far as the etkey goes, i shouldn't copy and paste it? 5-6 hours is a big jump, Thats awesome. I have a MBP 15" from late 07 and it gets about 1 hour gaming and 2.5-3.5 of just web browsing or running apps. And like Tonka said, you should be just fine copying the ET key over to your installs. Plus you have a backup in case another computer goes down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vke Posted August 16, 2009 Author Share Posted August 16, 2009 Okay got the etkey copied over. But, whenever i join an F|A server, it kicks me after the loading screen, and doesn't show a reason. When i get on to ETPro, it says the reason is Game Integrity. What do I do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonka Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 maybe kicked for tag protection? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobbit Posted August 16, 2009 Share Posted August 16, 2009 You could have some invalid files that are corrputed or the actual game install may be corrupted so check that out. Also reinstall PB using pbsvc (I think thats the one). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Visit F|A 2 when I am on. Technically F|A 2 jaymod is running 2.6b. I don't think ETPUB has MAC build client files. Run vista or xp or windows 7 in dual boot.

vke Posted August 17, 2009 Author Share Posted August 17, 2009 Got it all fixed. Turns out 2.60b is a bit of a misnomer, as the mac client is actually 2.60d. I tried joining Jay2 today, but i get a message saying invalid GUID. Oh well, ill just play etpro and nq. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
