[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1799465, member: 46727"] Yeah, the problem is that it won't run on anything after Snow Leopard. I remember trying it with Lion and it crashed. When they say tinkering, they mean recompiling it. The same games from ID software like Doom and Doom II have all been modified and recompiled to run on the latest version of macOS. What they (the tinkerers) have done is create a shell compiled for macOS and then run the games from within the shell. Unfortunately, Wolfenstein is not one of those games that can run within the shell. By the way, the latest shell is called "GZDoom" and it runs all versions of Doom, Quake, and others in full screen with mouse support. However, all is not lost because one of the Doom WADS (series of levels) have been designed to emulate Wolfenstein with some of the old realism. Better than nothing. :) [/QUOTE]
