Mac Gaming Mods

Does the Mac version of Halo support "Command Line Switches" like the PC version. I know Antialiasing is irrelevant, but what about the others? Are these equivalent to the options at the popup dialogue box that opens up the first time you launch Halo?

Sorry for tangenting and bringing this thread out longer then it needed to be, I'm an amateur programmer/modder & just wanted a bit of advice on things. That was all.

That's basically what I was suggesting towards. The first step would be checking out an old changeset (thinking at 1.0b23) that was compatible with 10.5, and making a few changes / disabling a few things to have it build on powerpc. I used to have a ppc test build long ago actually, but I don't hav...

No.. I'd start with trying to get the MD lobby app to compile first, because it sounds like you don't know what needs to be done to the engine (if anything does need to be done initially that is), and reasoning about that can come later. Considering that the original halo interface works fine on ol...

I'm not sure if I'd add it to old_releases page or as a small link for an alternative version (like for last 10.5 & 10.6 compatible version), but it also may depend on how functional & stable the build is. I also don't want to add it in a way that makes it sound like we officially maintain ...

We want to support a single version officially and don't want to greatly make over-complications/multiple handling...I also don't do much work on MD these days aside from maintenance - not supporting what we don't have to really simplifies things. If me or other people were to make separate version...

The x86 enhancements & extensions don't work on PPC because either some of them aren't relevant or because we haven't duplicated our effort in creating them for PPC. I could implement some of you tweaks into the PPC side of the universal binary, although I'd need help. There are also maps that ...

I'm assuming you tried with a Yahoo or GMail email. Those are currently blocked as they are a favorite for spam bots to use. I can open those back up and we can see how the bots behave. Thanks Monoman, that'd be really helpful if you could do that for me. Our brothers at the Marathon Pfhorums websi...

Ok, I understand. I'm curious though. What exactly is HaloMD? How does it work? From my understanding you can't exactly port something to another architecture without the source code, and the halo demo was never made for intel processors nor was the source code released. How'd you do it? Edit: after...

Hi, I'm also a new user here on these forums, but from digging through threads I think I can answer your question. An unofficial patch for Mavericks & later con be found here . What you should do is install the first download, then on the last page (page 6, I think) of the thread is the lobby pa...

Keep in mind though, there are many PPC users still out there. There are websites, such as PPC Luddite , specifically for assisting PPC users. In fact, the Leopard Webkit & TenFourFox projects are dedicated purely to bringing a modern browsing experience to PPC users. Though to be fair, I'm not ...

Thanks. At first I didn't believe any of the mods where compatible with PPC since none of them would appear when I would set up a LAN game to test them. Bun I kept reading all throughout these threads, and many of them referenced PPC compatibility with custom maps. I just assumed that the maps are r...

Hi, I'm new. I'm basically here to ask a few questions about your mods & PPC support (since that's what I'm running). First, I'm running on the Halo 2.0.4 UB and I'm attempting to host one of your custom maps you have available in the mods category on your site but It doesn't appear in my map se...
