Hi,
I am a complete "newbie" to DarkSpace!
I have come to the rather obvious conclusion that I cannot run "Dark Space" on my Macintosh.
I assume that someone will very readily confirm this fact for me or will tell me that perhaps there is way to run DarkSpace on a Macintosh?
Thank you everyone!
Patrick

No log out button. Click GameCQ at top left and select exit. Then log back in as another acct.

With lots of weapon fire and space bar mashing!
Try for the rear arc of the pirate. ships tend to have less armor/shields over there

If you are running a Mac OS 10.x.x or higher you need boot camp (for dual boot) or one of the many pay-for windows/linux game ports.
Several people have made the game run under wine in linux but there were still issues.
Cedega for linux was able to run the game on a linux machine at about medium settings. Mac OS 10.x.x is a linux port so something simular should work but is not supported by Playstar.
Best of luck.

The optimal solution would be to throw your Mac out the window and purchase a real computer. I can help with any questions you may have, as you will have to make hardware decisions that expand upon "What color should it be", and "Isn't this mouse so kawaii uguu~ ^_^".
