EfU Mac users?

garrison · 02-14-2008, 05:44 PM

My wife is interested in EfU, unfortunately MacSoft no longer has a license for NWN, although they still sell SoU. NWN is available from an Amazon storefront for about $80, but I can't find HoU anwhere. Does anyone have an idea how I can get my hands on NWN+SoU+HoU (or even just HoU) for OS X?

Try sending Unglaublich Verwustung a PM. HE is the only one I know use uses a mac for Efu (just don't ask him for help on pronouncing any names.... )

I think I've lucked out-- she's agreed to try Linux and I've agreed to build her a pink box:

Good job too, not sure where you can get it anymore, I've had mine for years. If I come across a copy at a low price I shall grab it anyway, just in case you still want it later.

I can help, it's just that you can't twist your tongue in the right way..

Would a spoon full of peanut butter held with pronunciation?

No, nor with your spelling

A spoonful of honey and a generous tot of whiskey should do the job though :|

I had some peanut butter , that's why my pronunciation was bad.
Honey.. Whiskey… sounds like the making of something good!

Bumped this one as I have been working on it recently (since my mac disks have died and I never did the full [no disk required] install). Currently investigating running NWN on a mac using the pc disks as a source for the files.

Update so far:
Successful new install NWN on the mac including the two expansion packs.
Successful update to v1.68.
Successful add in of CEP 1.51 and all of Massive for EFU.
Can launch and play on the mac, including getting back into EFU successfully.
It crashes at random intervals - I think it may be linked to the fact that I have had to use a mixture of linux and mac update packs to get myself from v1.0 to 1.68.
Now investigating the crash error report which links to Thread 0; if I get nowhere fast I shall do a fresh install and check for crashes with each set of updates.

More anon. Obviously of no real relevance to anyone but myself now since Garrison did a linux setup for his wife

Yep, now you can get a real computer, and get busy.
