GCCG on Mac
« on: April 10, 2010, 06:28:12 PM »
So, I got a Mac. And I love it. But I'm not really computer savvy anyways, so if anyone has GCCG on Mac and wants to run me through the set up, I'd really appreciate it.

I know it's possible, but it might be a bit involved. Isn't there someone here who has done it?

I thought so and I was hoping that I could get the step-by-step instructions from him/her. It just seems like I have to download some additional programs and so I'll get around to it eventually...I'd suspect that I'll give it the good old college try next weekend.

Well, as of now I am stuck on trying to download Fink and get that running. I guess it is just trying to get used to Apple's OS.

I mean, this literally is a foreign language to me. I'm just letting things go and hope they work out.

I got GCCG running on 10.5.8 but the big problem is that you can't use the GCCG deckbuilder on a mac. So there's literally no way to build a deck.

Intriguing. I am running 10.6, so I guess I will wait for a Fink update.

How is it that the GCCG interface works but not one part of it? What happens when you open the card collection and middle-click to add to a deck?

Might be a while... do you have a legal copy of Windows for dual-boot?

If you need fink, why not just install it from source?  http://www.finkproject.org/download/srcdist.php .

Also, if that's not an option, you could try emulation...I hear good things about WiNE, although I haven't had to use it yet, and they have OSX build instructions... http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX/Installing .

Anyone know how I can make a dock Icon for this? I'm tired of having to open up terminal every time I want to run the game.
