so i got this thing installed and i fired it up for the first time and then i realized. UHHHHHH I need a keyboard because my mbp does have F keys. This is turning into a whole thing. Ill see if I have something laying around the house. so annoying.

that did it. Thanks for all the help. I appreciate it. Any ideas how to get rid of 20 ish years of rust?

okay it looked like it installed correctly and now i cant launch

Quotewine ~/.wine/drive_c/Games/Worms\ Armageddon/wa.exe

that is the command I use. but this is the error i get now

Quotewine: cannot find '/Users/robone4/.wine/drive_c/Games/Worms Armageddon/wa.exe'

first one is working. Installing now.Thank you

I got all the way to the step of downloading the latest version from GOG

QuoteUsing the GOG edition
In your web browser, log in with a GOG account that has purchased the game, then download the full latest installer via this link. After it is downloaded, use the following command to install it (example for version 3.8.1, change to yours if different):

wine ~/Downloads/setup_worms_armageddon_gog-3.8.1_(43454).exe

but when I type in that command i get a syntax error

Quote-bash: syntax error near unexpected token `('

my file name and everything matches up. I have it in my downloads folder but it just wont install. Any clues?

If you have not updated it to Catalina or later, you can just install wine (32-bit), then run the game with the latest update. The easiest way might be getting the installer from GOG (unfortunately the -75% sale ran out a few hours ago) and installing via their installer if you don't want to mess with the CD install and updates. It should work with no additional tweaks in windowed mode. (See this guide)

If you are on macOS Catalina or newer, you cannot play unless you use CrossOver (commercial software), or parallels/bootcamp/etc.

im running into a syntax error when installing the GOG version. Dont know hot to fix that. Its not recognizing where im telling it to get the file. All my file info matches up perfectly but still syntax error.

working on this mac install. Wish me luck

is it even possible to play on a Mac? Probably not. So I guess the boy will only get stories of my greatness and never actually witness it.

It is, there are many ways but for me the best one was install windows with bootcamp and then just install and play ae

eh that might be dicey for me. Ive got an OLLLD macbook pro 2010. Not trying to do too much to the old boy.

I was so ready to go up there and school him on the game. Then he started a death match game and i realized this is not the game I loved. I tried showing him videos and he kept telling me its 2021 dad. That is old. This is how things are now. Now I want to download WA and get some roping in on my MBP

So its been about 4 years since I last found you guys and said hi. I honestly forgot about Worms again. Then something happened. My son came running downstairs and said him and his friend were going to download this game called Worms Rumble on PS4. I said STOP! Im a legend in worms. So I had to tell him stories of my worming days and showed him a video of roping. Then I decided to post here and tell you guys about it. But for those of you who remember my 1337 elite skills. Let him know his dad was one of the greats. Also how are you all doing?

wasnt he really good at BnG?

still not gone. I was on the other night and of course like all nights nobody was. I think I need to reinstall the game it is giving me issues. I have not gotten any better though. I guess you have to play more than once every two weeks. Oh well I guess I have to live with my new shitty skills.

i am not gone!!!! f@#!ing holidays are busy times when you have a family. The free time I have these days between work and my son and his amateur hockey career is late at night. Nobody is really on then. But I still stop in from time to time.

I am having this issue anyone have the fix?
