Worms 3D nogo in Leopard (mac)

[patterman]

I am slowly but surely migrating to Mac, known as a platform where one has to abandon ones favorite games, I was lucky that Team17 went the extra mile to ensure a Mac version was available - this being one of my favorite games.

Problem is that although it works fine in OS X 10.4 and installs in Leopard when I insert the C to play under Leopard I get an error. It doesn't like the CD. Has anybody else had problems with this?

Have you patched the game? http://www.feralinteractive.com/downloads/worms3d/w3d-1.0.1-update.zip (version 1.0.1)

There is currently a Universal patch being developed that may well bring better Leopard support. There's no info on a release date yet.

If that doesn't work, contact Feral Interactive here: http://support.feralinteractive.com/?mod_id=4&t=18
They made the game for Team17, as Team17 don't do in-house Mac ports.

Thanks, I only managed to find the PC updates (grumble) I'll try it when I get home, any way to get on a mailing list when a leopard update becomes available?

I don't think Feral have a mailing list - best thing to do is to email them and ask when the patch is available, and to keep checking their website.

they do have one, I did email them and I'm on it now. They refferenced o the update also. Great to know this game is still being looked after
