if not on the mac platform, you can always use a virtual machine with xp on it and install vp . I use Virtualbox to do it, there's a mac version on the site. It's easy to use and well explained.

Hi everybody

I have a Mac, my first Intel one, and one of the highlights for me is being able to run VP3DL on it.

However, I am using BootCamp as VP3DL runs better in "proper" Windows. Compared to Parallels or VMware where there is graphic flickering/corruption.

Does anybody know a way to run it under Mac OS X without glitches?

matt

ps: I also run my old DOS version using DOSbox/Boxer when I want a quick game vs. cpu and can't be bothered to reboot into Windows.
