Curiosity, Was there a pre-MacOS X port?
Posted: Fri Apr 04, 2014 1:26 pm
A long time ago when I was in community college, I discovered the dmweb.free.fr website. Around that time the Chaos Strikes Back for Windows was just being released.
Later there was a mention of a possible Macintosh port.
At the time, I had a PowerMac 6500/300 and ran Windows 95 with Virtual PC 3.0. Yet I was amazed that CSB ran acceptably well under that system when Office 97 ran slow as a slug.
Not long afterwards I managed to save enough from my part-time job to buy a new Windows 98SE computer for school.
I also recall seeing talk about a possible Macintosh port, but I never saw it.
Out of curiosity, was a port ever made for Mac OS 8.6, or was it for Mac OS X only?
That Mac in question died in 2009, and I'd mostly only used it for its TV tuner card by that point, but since I made another post on the form, I thought I'd ask.
BTW, what happened to the old posts, or was there a forum associated with dmweb.free.fr that predated this one? The oldest posts of mine I can find are from 2007, but I recall being more active on a Dungeon Master forum associated with dmweb.free.fr in the first couple years of the 21st century.
Sorry for asking old-time questions. My memory fails me, and I'm just curious.
