Ok. Let me restate what im saying here.

Pure Faction for PC, runs fine atm. Excludes mac.

add in additional code which makes the server check what OS the client is running, (Pure Faction could generate this on runtime, and then pass it on to the server when Authenticating) If PC, carry on with standard checks otherwise run Mac specific checks.



form load event
*Gather OS details*

authentication function
If Mac = True Then
*Use Mac authentication code*
ElseIf PC = True Then
*Use PC authentication code*
Else
*Error code*
End If

Trying to find old players. Anyone about? Drop me a PM or reply to this thread:

The problem is that the MAC RF version cannot run any edited PC RF executables.

The changes we are talking about would be server side not client.

Making a small applescript to pass data to the server is probably not that hard.
