Thanks for the advice, so it means I must emulate windows.. Sounds like a bit heavy.. I used to have a virtual machine previously and it was killing all my memory!
Walrus, what is parallels exactly ? what mac do you have ? I am on macbookpro mavericks with 2.3GHZ core i7 and 8GO RAM

PS: YES I am alive :))) Thanks for the thread guys, i really appreciate

Using bootcamp only for worms sounds a bit too much :/

Post by: THeDoGG on December 16, 2015, 11:38 AM: Yep I tried Virtualbox previously, it was in another computer but pretty similar, and it was very laggy :/
I will give a try to paralels, or just install back my old windows desktop

Hey people. Does anyone know about a full screen option w/o bootcamp?
I've had good experiences with PortingKit (HoMM III HD+ ftw), but it says W:A would be windowed only.

Also, do we know what version is GOG W:A? Can you connect to WormNet via PortingKit or does it have any limitations besides being windowed?

Cheers
