Hello, I’ve been trying to play the game in my MacBook, I tried Wine and Porting Kit but doesn’t work neither, is there anything I can do?
Hi, guide from another player on discord:
Playing UDBO on Mac M-chips , a fortiori, M4 :
Required software:
Parallels desktop is the best option when it comes to play UDBO on Mac , It’s available on the App-Store BUT it's
not free - Although you can try it for free.UTM works but the game will likely lag and textures will not appear either. Crossover is a great tool but for playing UDBO since it does not have a proper « launcher » and the game will have the same issues as UTM. Wine is not that user friendly and Whinsky is no longer developed.
Bootcamp is only available on intel chips mac.Installation: 1-Install Parallels desktop through the App Store Follow the steps in the app in order to download and get windows on your Mac
2-Don’t forget to install
.NET on your Mac and
Direct X - latest version works well - on your windows virtual machine.
The game will not work without.3-Go to your
virtual machine settings on parallels - right click - then
mouse and keyboard settings and choose this option
« optimised for games » . It is necessary unless you don’t want to right click correctly in gameYou can play
Nota beneWhen you play , make sure to play while your Mac is charged. By doing so , you’ll avoid to do too much cycles of the battery and , in fine, consuming it too fast. Therefore, the Mac will use the charger instead of the battery.Giving 4Go of RAM for Windows is enough since DBO is an old game.Buy a mouse if you don’t have it
