View Full Version : Keyboard Response problem running WA in Virtualbox on iMac

I am having trouble with the keyboard response... sometimes my double taps don't "take" (ie only a single tap registers) and I wind up jumping in the water.
I havn't been able to change the game detail level either (to see if that helps) because I have no insert key.
Any suggestions?

I think input problems are rather common in VirtualBox... perhaps you should try another solution (e.g. Wine / WineSkin / CrossOver Games).

In vmware Workstation on Windows running 7 which runs WA, I get instant keyboard response in WA, though the sound is delayed. Perhaps you should try vmware and/or Windows if the above solutions don't work out.

Wineskin is working beautifully! Seamless! And now i just have one Worms Armageddon app on my mac and can get rid of all the other junk.

Hey mmmmya,
I am having trouble running Worms Armageddon on a macbook air using Parallels 6. I've downloaded Wineskin like your comment suggested, but I'm a little confused on the settings: "Engines to use," etc. Could you give me a quick rundown on how to use Wineskin with worms? It would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Also using Wineskin, have you gotten the game to detect your internet connection so that you could potentially play online?
