Just wanted to ask if this is more up to date than the one in the Bonus Package.
XaiCorp Fleet Support Ship Software X3 2.15
The Bonus Package says V1.15 but it sends you to V1.14 in the readme?
Stay safe!

Hmm, it's a week later, and the links still aren't working (at least, not for me).moggy2 wrote:we are aware of the problem. We're just waiting for an admin to fix it.
I just had to do an uninstall/reinstall, so I came here looking for the Bonus Pack, but no dice. Is it available for download anywhere else?

Download link works for me, make sure you are logged in before you try to download the bonus pack.Doktor Teufel wrote:Hmm, it's a week later, and the links still aren't working (at least, not for me).moggy2 wrote:we are aware of the problem. We're just waiting for an admin to fix it.

Um, couldn't find it in a search, but I don't suppose there's going to be a mac release? Yes, I know, "wtf n00b macz r 4 gheys nt g4m3rz," but not having to pay $190 for a copy of windows just to get these additions would be nice.

Cider, according to Transgaming, is "aimed at developers and publishers" (unlike Cedega, from the same company). Point being, someone needs to code the cider wrapper around a given game. But hey, it looks like someone did - but it requires a new X3 purchase.Cycrow wrote:some ppl have successfully got it to work by using an emulator, Cider i think, as the mac version of the game uses that anyway.
u could give it a go.
X3: Reunion (for Intel Mac platforms)
The first questions I'd ask Transgaming and Virtual Programming though is how the Cider X3 game handles patches, bonus packs, mods, etc. At a point in the future, I'd budget for another hard disk to qualify for an OEM XP SP2B Pro license for that sweet bootcamp capability of the intel macs. It's pricey(er), but that's a powerful flexibility that's just too good to pass up, imo.

Oh yeah, forgot to mention I bought the mac release from Virtual Programming Ltd., so been playing the game fine, actually surprised me how well it runs on this notebook: maxed out graphics I'm getting 30ish fps under heavy load. I was specifically talking about this bonus pack, my fault for being ambiguous.Aesir wrote: Cider, according to Transgaming, is "aimed at developers and publishers" (unlike Cedega, from the same company).

The game itself does run under Cider like you said, which "is a business to business application only and is not available to end-users." There're plenty of Mac-Windows emulators/virtual machines out there (most of them not worth an expletive), but seeing as you're running 1) Mac OS X (~300M RAM, %12 CPU load on my machine), 2) the emulator/VM (ranges from near-seamless to >200M RAM >20% CPU), 3) Windows itself under a VM (again varies dependent upon Windows build, I've seen XP use ~350M and a 15% load), you're up to 850MB of RAM taken and the CPU idling at almost 50% load, on top of which is a very resource-intensive 3d game like X3. Now luckily Cider is brilliant, and somehow doesn't noticeably impact performance from what I can tell, and there is no Windows OS running in the background.
And yeah, I spent a good 45 minutes searching and crawling threads looking for a mac port of the pack, but ah well. Thanks for the helpful replies all the same.
AppleScript would be relatively painless even if you've never used it before, but you'd need a mac platform to create it on. On the plus side, you could make the install routine look like a polished Aqua app - and that would make a nice impression on a mac end user.moggy2 wrote:what would be the best way to distribute a script pack to macs?
If you want *nix compatibility as well, or otherwise don't think applescript is a practical option, jlehtone is on target (OS X is BSD). So, you've got many choices including perl, python, ruby, or even *cringe* gnu patch. Here's a page full of ideas:
http://www.apple.com/opensource/
Java might be worth looking into if you wanted to maintain one set of code for the installers for mac, linux, and Windows. Unlike applescript however, I can't really recommend writing a java based installer unless you're comfortable with Java already. I'm not very familiar with Java programming myself, but I would start by searching to see if either the netBeans or eclipse projects already have a plug-in for their IDEs that provide cross-platform installer builders.
