ATHEN PALADINS FORUMS (in remaking)

Mud nailed it: Bootcamp.

If buying XP or Vista isn't an option use Wine, but not thru winebottler. You might have to reinvigorate those "coding" skills.

I'm not on a Mac, but wine-1.3.18 + a patch for the mouselook issue has AO running flawlessly for me.

imho, "inability" is never a positive, especially those "other games" that dont provide data in XML format which allows you to use 3rd party tools to easily account your inventory into simple tools like spreadsheets.

A zip-tie? Or was that just tied in a knot?

Good looking system regardless...

Maybe offtopic, but AO might run fine on your mac if you can get Wine working.

Download the source for wine-1.3.18, apply one quick patch (which fixes mouse input), then compile.

• Subdued Flow of Novictum is no longer a Unique item.

Thats pretty cool.

Disregard my updated rant.

Kron did and still does sound like a pretty cool dude.

Bump due to updating my original post... If I only cared enough to triple log at minimum 2 paid accounts, then I could be "uber" too. If not I could sit around begging for help all the time. Neither of those sound too appealing to me. I guess that's why I suck at this game. New engine FTW!!

Kinda late, but I heard Ric Romero reported that the servers are back up. The RL doc actually told me to try some whiskey+lemon juice+honey (aka a hot-totty) for the pain at night. Good ol' country docs ;) Its worked good enough that I've been actually able to make some descent progress with my gimp...

I just tried too. Same error. I wish I could tag along for the s7 raid, but earlier today I found out that the excruciating pain in my back turns out to be pneumonia in my left lung. The doc has me doped and quite frankly I feel too bad to do anything besides crawl back in bed and sleep some more no...

Hey Kron and welcome. I'm sure you'll fit in nicely. I'm the same way when it comes to AO, altruistic. I have more fun helping others and new players; more so than I do grinding or pvp'ing. Currently I'm trying to amass a squadron of fr00b buffwhores and dungeon "twinks" to do just that (t...

FP:MP is still a bit out of my league at the moment (thenano skills to cast, i dont have quite that much at this level, but I'm close), still its all fun even sans meatballs. Got a bigger gun on today, tho its still not anything special. Also got into some higher armor and also grabbed 4 ncu rings f...

Thanks you both Noobas and Beneficial. Those are some mighty nice rings :D The ice-breaker went on easily. The little fella is no where near where I want him, but so far he makes very quick work of most of the mobs. Even without some of the more uber-items he'll be a nice escort for all the small to...

Thanks Fisty. We'll definitely team up soon. Today i got to level 10 (I wanted him a little higher in level but trying to level in the subway got to me after about 3 levels, and I said 'screw it, level 10 it is'. I got all my imps in except one. Sookie loaned me those uber-rings Noobas mentioned. Th...

Thanks Noobas. Your reply is what I was hoping this thread could bring to light. That ring = do want. Never heard of it, and I'm sure it's as expensive as all (like poly pillows). My toons get by with being functionally retarded (I always have that INT hole - and they aren't even atrox), that ring w...

Got a little trader to lvl 17 with level 60 imps. For those shiny weapons I wanted, they'd all require some hefty OSBs to keep them out of OE - never fun begging for buffs. So... So lets see how creating an agent goes. No "twinking" just a bit of imp-laddering to get a decent yatamutchy, c...
