descent 3 multiplayer on Intel macs / OSX
Posted: Mon Jun 25, 2012 10:15 pm
Hi, I used to play D3 about 7 years ago, but drifted off after D3 stopped working on OSX and new macs. A few days ago I noticed a build floating around of an unofficial "Intel cider" mac port of the PC version of d3+merc that this guy did: http://portingteam.com/doc/2010/03/desc ... tel-cider/
He claimed to not have tried multiplayer with it, so I tested it out today on a descentforum.net server and it seemed to work great minus the mouse sensitivity seeming very jittery/sketchy. I still have no idea if it will recognize a joystick properly. But anyway this might whet some macers appetites who haven't played in forever
Does anyone know of this port and the issues with it or want to help me figure out a workable scheme for it?

Anyway for the record mpIayer indeed works on the cider-wrapped port
