![]() I use Crossover Games for a few games I play randomly (Guild Wars, Megaten Imagine, Steam) and a Win7 VM for any non-graphic-intense apps and games that will not run in Crossover (Indie Windows Games, Homebrew tools for DS and PSP, etc.)ĭepending on what you are trying to run DOSBox might be something to consider. It all depends on what apps you are going to use though. I have tried a few games not even listed on Crossover's site and they worked fine (Example: With a little tweaking, I was able to get Megaten Online: Imagine working almost 100% in Crossover Games when it first came out, months before CodeWeaver added it to their compatibility listings).Īnyway, I agree that Crossover (costs money but has better support then WINE) is your best bet for getting Windows Binaries running on an Intel Mac. The only issues with WINE/Crossover are compatibility issues hence why there is an application compatibility database on both CodeWeaver's and WINE's sites. WINE/Crossover use native hardware, not virtual, to power the apps it runs, so it is much more powerful then a VM. Try running Guild Wars on High in a VM and in Crossover and tell me which is worse. It all depends on what you are using them for. ![]() Second off, WINE and Crossover Games are no where near the worst in performance. Its is wrapper that converts Window API calls to *nix calls. WINE actually stands for WINE Is Not an Emulator. ![]()
