Hi. I can confirm that PF3 works perfectly on macosx 10.7 (lion) using wineskin. I think it even performs better this way than the native OSX version and this is the only way to get RF to work in lion since the powerpc support has been dropped.

Eww nooo MAC!!! Burn it... Windows all the way! (Just kiddin ).

Good find though. You should go to factionfiles.com and let the development team know about this in case they do not know already. You could then point them in the right direction for developing the new release to be supported by MAC Also...

But seriously, get a Windows PC .

haha. seriously nothing is more painful than waiting for win7 to boot up! I have win 7 setup on a different partition and can boot into it if I want - but since everything else I run is done is OSX it is way faster and easier to just run PF in wine.

Not any more with Solid State Hard Drives. Boot time for Windows 7 with one of those babies is 4 seconds.

Windows 7 on my SSD is ridiculous it takes about 3-4 seconds and the startup programs don't slow the computer down one bit.

I got a mac at work with an SSD and it's about the same it boots up in just a few seconds.
