I received the following. Can anyone help this fellow?
I am writing to you to see if you know how to contact Tomas Zahradnicky, who apparently a few years ago did an OS X port of your CSBWin application.
The current MacOS X port does not run on my Macbook Pro, so I suspect that it doesn't run on any Intel Mac with nVidia graphics cards in them (the port was made for the previous generation's PowerPC CPUs and thus now forced to run interpreted via the Rosetta emulation layer, which apparently does not work very well, nor does the screen resolution the port forces on my laptop).
Any information would be appreciated! I would really like to re-live this nostalgic game again. I remember that my father (who has now passed away) finished Dungeon Master way before me, and had much, much higher level characters than me as well, but I don't think that either of us managed to finish Chaos Strikes Back.

Re: CSBwin for Intel OS-X
Apparently, Tomas Zahradnicky is Czech (Tomáš Zahradnický). There are many guys with this name, and I don't know him, but I found two possible contacts:
- chaos@24uSoftware.com (from http://dmweb.free.fr/?q=node/851 - might be old)
- and zahradt@cslab.felk.cvut.cz or zahradt@fel.cvut.cz (from http://cs.felk.cvut.cz/webis/people/zahradt.html). He seems to be the only guy with this name on the web who has anything to do with OS X or computers in general (others are gardeners etc., lol) - so I would try him.

Finally playing and immensely enjoying the awesome Thimbleweed Park-a-reno!

Re: CSBwin for Intel OS-X
I have an Intel mac with the nVidia graphics, so I can test stuff if needed... other than that, I can't help.

Hi all,
In case you're still interested in Mac OS X version, I just give a try to have a SDL version running on Mac OS X : http://www.dungeon-master.com/forum/vie ... 22#p108722
