GavinZac Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 Steam does not run on Mac computers as far as I'm aware. You'll need to use the in-game networking system; there's plenty of info about that here in the FM Online forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KUBI Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 You have to install the mac version on your mac. You both should have the same patch installed and using the same database. It's no problem to have a online game with a mac and a pc. One of the computers should setup the game and being the server and the other one has to connect. More and details can you find in the FM online forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_pimpnuts Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 For intents and purposes (with a much b*ggering around) Steam doesn't work on Macs. You need install your game and authenticate it using the other methods. You probably installed this Steam - http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/21055&vid=118977 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KUBI Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 If you want to install the game on a mac you have to buy the boxed version. There is no steam version for mac. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
