computer problems

TheoX · Post by **TheoX** » Sun Nov 21, 2004 4:13 am

hey every1-I know i have not been on for about 3 months...

this is because of two reasons-1. School had started in sepember, and i had a TON of stuff to do. 2. Then, my internet service on my pc went down, and the entire pc ended up getting really screwed up(I am writing this from my mac at my dad's house).
So after that, I could not download anymore levels, post levels, or even play wonderland!

And I still can't!

Agh! Just today, I finally remembered what the name of this site was

sigh, well, that is why i haven't been on for a very long time...

Hi Theo- there is NOTHING wrong with a Mac!! That was my very first computer & I still have it. I think they're great - only reason I switched to a non-Mac is because I found it very difficult to get all the programs, games, etc. that I wanted. A Mac does limit you in that way. Other than that, they are really GOOD computers! I still go use the darned thing once in awhile - there are still some games on there that I love that are only compatible for a Mac (still).

majic-i didn't mean to sound like i do not love macs too. I have a ton of fun games on mine. The only problem with a mac is that you can't play Wonderland

Hi Theo..
I was wondering about you and what you were up to....besides school!
Hope you can get everything fixed soon, and make us some more levels

Thanks for that Theo - you know there are a lot of people out there that are down on Macs! They definitely are good computers - too bad the two can't get together - it'd make everyone's lives easier!!

I felt the same way about my video recorder. I used to have Betamax, they were smaller tapes but ran for longer and I thought the picture quality was much better than VHS. But I had to switch to VHS because that started to take over and it became increasingly impossible to find tapes for Betamax. Now all you can get is VHS, and soon they'll be replaced by recordable DVDs. I think they're a much better idea anyway.

Regretably, no, and there probably won't ever be one. The graphics engine of Wonderland is written using DirectX which is a Microsoft-Windows-only technology. Doing a mac version of Wonderland will therefore requires significant amount of work to basically rewrite the graphics engine nearly from scratch. That's about as likely to happen as getting the graphics engine to support [insert list of custom model rendering capabilities requested by me Robbie and others here].

This is unless someone find a way to run Windows or an emulation thereof on the Mac, but even then the game will likely run much slower if at all.

Possibly one day - but not soon. Linky was correct in saying that it would have to be re-written from scratch in order to work for the Mac. No plans to do that at this time.
