They dont accept 3rd party software that isn't checked for virus etc by Apple themselves.

I think you're thinking about iOS for the iPod or iPhone, but I'd generally agree - it was only up until recently that game creators decided to make modern games compatible with Mac.

Someone knows how to run SA-MP without the gta_sa.exe file? Thanks!

SA-MP is not standalone, you NEED GTA SA!

EDIT: Missed the page numbers.

I would rather have Apple check it for a virus instead of having to download an shitty anti-virus program which would just take up space and time.

That also means that you cant make your own software or scripts, I cant live with that.

As far as I know, bash scripting works fine on OS X - correct me if I'm wrong.

Actually you can if your an Apple Developer which i am. http://developer.apple.com

Anyone can make an app. You do not need to be a developer. Any app will run on OSX, and it does NOT need to be approved by apple. I do not know where you are getting this information, because its just so stupid! APPLE DOES NOT NEED TO APPROVE EVERY APP FOR IT TO RUN.

With exceptions to the Mac App Store. (But that is not the only way to get apps... duhhh)

One of the things i hate about Mac is that you can't remap keys...

Thanks for this, Still a little buggy, but it's great, and my FPS is amazing. I'm running this on a Core i7 MacBook Pro 13" just fine.

Most games are developed using a Mac.
Also, they do accept third party software....if they didn't they wouldn't have sooo many programs for developing
software.

Yes, they do. Do your research before stating such nonsense.

No, Mac OS is based from Unix, not Linux.

[Macinzon]

Yes, a Mac can get a virus, but only if you are stupid enough to install it yourself. So better don't download those dumbass 'Mac cleaner' or w/e programs like that.

Can we get back on the topic please? I still can't get it to work..

Any idea what's wrong? Thanks in advance.

I installed my GTA SA outside of WINE's 'C' drive. Mine's simply in /Users/Me/Documents/GTA San Andreas/, same with my SA-MP installation.

Are you talking about the same folder where the user files are in?
