Re: Dumb Question

I thought so, but I can't seem to find it, so maybe not.

Re: Dumb Question

No. By the time Aspyr (not iD) could've done the port, IIRC, it was judged to not have enough profit potential, close enough. You might try the IMG Forums, where I recall it being discussed.

I recognize a few of the old names.

There are some really conflicting answers there.

Re: Dumb Question

Seems fairly consistent to me. What are you seeing?.. from #11 on, the consensus seems to be that, while MP can work as a Mod, SP crashes, likely disabled by design. Won't work on OSX.

Eric's an old friend; he'd remember what Glenda and others said. He became a Mod too there after my time.

Re: Dumb Question

#2 says yes, #7 says maybe no, #8 says yes, #10 says only MP, #12 says no, #13 says no.

More nos than yes but those that did say yes 1) how did they get it to work or 2) are they even playing the same game.

Re: Dumb Question

#7 got it to work, but then #10 (who is also #7) recanted, saying that "only multiplayer works."

But I know it won't work (single-player, at least), because I recall that id modified the game engine to add support for things like slow motion effects.  There's a good chance it'll work with Cider, though (but that's my answer for everything).
