Why would he want to play it on the MAC OS X when he has Windows to play it on? Also, do you have "Crossover Games"?

Because then you need to keep a partition on your harddrive and reboot every time you want to play. If the only reason you have a windows partition is for EB, I can understand wanting to remove that partition if you are now able to play EB on OSX.

Moved this to the tech help forum.

Can't you just run a virtual machine and play it that way?

This was my first try but unfortunately RTW in Parallels 5 on a Macbook pro with a Core2 Duo 2.4 and nvidia 9400m is absolutely unplayable for its slowness even in the strategic map.
The funny thing is that on the same setup I can play Oblivion!
:-(

Same here, 3.0 ghz quadcore and NVIDIA 250 and able to play Crysis, but not EB sadly.

Today I have tried to install the mod.
Have made the romedata archive R/W and have copied all the files in eb\data in the data folder, overwriting the original ones.

Interestingly the data folder's dimension moves from 4,6 GB to 2,51 GB and the files number from ca 6000 to 27000

But unfrotunately the game crashes immediately after the introductory video.
Did I forget to copy or adapt something?
