I have a Mac. But don't I need a Mac version of Renegade?

I am asking because my only decent desktop I have is this Mac. And I am tired of playing Renegade all these times in the lousy laptops.

If no, then is there a Mac version of Renegade?

Use Parallels or VMWare Fusion (requires a Windows install), that's the only way AFAIK.

Doesn't mac already come with something like that or you can get it for free Bootcamp I think it is but to use the other os you have to reboot but still it's FREE.

Yes it does, but VMWare Fusion/Parallels lets you run Windows at the same time as you're running OS X.

Yes I know about parallels if your on a tight budget the FREE solution is the best.

Who said anything about money? Nah, I'm kidding. If you don't feel like spending the money then get an XP/Vista disc and use Bootcamp instead.

Yeah, I think that seems to be the soultion. I can't spend any money right now on this because I am saving it all to buy a good computer in a few months time to keep up with today's games.

Anyway, this solves my problem. I think I will get Bootcamp and yes, I already have my own copy of Win XP and Vista. But I prefer XP for this.

Thank you Ethenal and Lone for your great help! In Love

IMPORTANT NEW QUESTION! Please READ!

I am writing it here so I don't need to create a new topic.


OK, as some of you may know, my Renegade laptop fell and the hard disk was completely damaged. I get the blue screen at the XP load screen. This was 5 weeks ago and I have not been playing Renegade online since then....which is why I wanted to play on the Mac.

Anyway, ALL my Renegade files, skins, and even other documents were all lost. The data is gone.

So now I am going to install Renegade on my Mac. My question is will all my nicks "Starbuzz" and others show up in this new Renegade?

I hope it does. I think it should because it is registered at XWIS no?
