avirex, i run vmware, its pretty amazing runs windows without bootcamp, because bootcamp sucks.  I recommend software piracy, search for vmware fusion on a torrent site.  Or pm me and I can link you to the torrent I used.  Wa runs great on it, btw.

he said

"the mac guide wants me to write shit in the terminals and command lines and shit, idk what im doing"

"if there is a mac expert that wants to go step by step with me over skype or something, then I'll do it"

"the first step already stumped me"



so... whats the deal with vmware fusion?? is it very simple or what? just go into the program and your able to run window programs/games??   he should have no problem running that program? or does he need to know commands and other crazy things?



Shyguy, do you know how to download torrent files?? PM TheWalrus!!

dt needs you.

Before I try any of this, I need to know a few things that failed me last time i tried playing WA on the mac.

1. I have a Macbook Pro.  Last time, I tried plugging in an external KB into my macbook.  Most the keys worked, but a good amount of them didn't, including the numeric pad that I use for my controls.  Also, I couldn't get rid of the game background graphics ingame because the button used to do that didn't work on the external, as well.  It just seems that connecting the usb external KB into the mac made a lot of the keys on the external KB incompatible or something.  I never used Windows XP or anything on my mac or dualbooted, so maybe doing that would fix my problem?

Walrus, can you write a very detailed step by step tutorial, on how to instal VMware, and w:a onto a mac???


pretend your giving this instructions to a complete f@#!ing retard, who knows no more about a computer, then typing with one finger.

Shyguy needs some serious help.

1.  Download vmware fusion:  http://thepiratebay.sx/torrent/9075430/VMware_Fusion_Professional_6.0.1_MacOSX_Incl_Keymaker-CORE

2.  Get windows: http://thepiratebay.sx/torrent/4361058/Windows__XP_Professional_SP3_INTEGRATED_ISO----------NO_KEY_NEED

3.  Launch vmware fusion (it tells you what to do)

4.  install worms

5.  feel good about not being a f@#!in idiot anymore

I don't really know anything aside from really basic stuff, and it basically set itself up.  i don't know why shyguy can't do the same.

Installed WA on vmware, tried opening it and I can hear the game running (the WA heartbeat sound in the intro) but I just get a black screen... I can't figure out how to get out of the black screen mode, my entire vmware window is just stuck there. what now

I was running directx 6.  Everything is black, I got trapped and tried to force quit vmware, reentered vmware windows xp and the colors and graphics were all f@#!ed up, says I'm running 2 vmwares and I cant figure out how to force quit one of them.... sigh

how he hell are you running 2 vmwares?  i didnt even know this was possible.....reset your computer , and when you run worms run it windowed, if it works you can always go fullscreen.  and good luck playing worms once you get it working, you have to press Fn + fkey to make the fkeys work :)

I dont have vmware tools that i know of, and i dont get black screen problems.  i dont have an external keyboard, maybe it wont suck with fkeys.  Let me know if the fkeys works, i might pick up a cheap external kb if it works with fkeys.

Post by: StepS on November 13, 2013, 09:41 PM
actually yes, have you installed vmware tools? vmware should prompt you to do so on first launch.
vmware tools are the essential drivers for graphics and other stuff, just like drivers for real hardware, and will solve many problems
Quick google found the best guide for doing so: http://kb.vmware.com/selfservice/microsites/search.do?language=en_US&cmd=displayKC&externalId=1003417
Do what it says in the "Solution" section.
Good luck

if something is really hard or you don't want to constantly ask about random parts of the process, then we should have a teamviewer (http://www.teamviewer.com/) session, where your problem will be resolved with a very high probability

Stop jerking off to Jobs and buy a real computer Shy... Why change from Windows to something much more worse and complicated.. I don't get it. On top of it Steve Jobs was a bitch and he deserved to die for how he treated people around him. He was a bad person and I hate apple and how locked up it is. That's my opinion ^^

Post by: ShyGuy on November 13, 2013, 11:10 PM
It appears I already have VMware tools installed and running... so yeah... what should I try next?

Mac is better than PC for my purposes.
