Simcity for Macintosh is Broken
Posted: Mon May 12, 2014 5:41 pm
i downloaded the Macintosh version of Simcity ( which can be found here: http://www.theoldcomputer.com/roms/inde ... imulations ) and unziped it expectind to find either one or mre disk images or another compressed file that needed to be decompressed on a real mac (or and emulation of one ). but instead i get a folder that contains a bunch of useless files.
after i saw this, i figured that i messed up buy decompressing it in windows. so i used Basilisk II for Windows v.08 [build 142] ( emulating a Quadra 650 ) to import the zip file into a Mac OS (7.5.3). then i used Stuffit Expander 5.5 to decompress the zip file. but i got the exact same useless files as i got in windows.
i'm not sure, but it looks like someone pulled apart the executable and put the parts in a folder and compressed it. or something like that.
