Front Office Games on Apple

[RedKingGold]

Is there any way to play Front Office Football or any of the other Solecismic games on Apple computers and software???

Are you a commie, or a soccer player?

[PackerFanatic]

Both!

I'll give you the non-smart ass answer. Check out Virtual PC. You'll be able to run OOTP, FOF and TCY fine with it, but BBCF runs extremely sloooooooow on it.

I'm actually a right-winged yuppie with very discernable needs that are due to my Northeastern upbringing and capablistic style (with adaptability, of course)

I think I may be running Virtual PC, then, since BBCF is slooooooow for me, too!

iPod makes computers? Since when?

I'd probably blow up my PC if it wasn't for Front Office Football.

Hmmm.. I never even attempted using Virtual PC because I kept on hearing that the eLicense system isn't "compatible" with it. You're telling me that's untrue?

same here. the speed has completely stopped me from playing the game. too much other competition for my entertainment time.

FYI, there's a significant increase in speed in 1.04.

I'm unsure if this means you have possess elements of being capable, are a capitalist, or are trying to communicate secret cryptic messages from the Kabbalah.

I run OOTP, FOF, TCY and BBCF through VPC. The first three run fine (I'm sure they're slower than on a PC, but the sim speeds are acceptable - although I've never played them on PC, so it might be a big difference that I'm just not used to.). But it takes probably 10+minutes just to sim one week of BBCF, which has me pulling my hair out because I'd really like to play this game more. I've been thinking of getting a lower-end PC for a few work uses, and this might finally push me to that point.

When I first tried to register TCY I had problems with eLicense, but they made some changes to their system right around that time and it eventually worked fine.

Well hot damn! Gonna have to give her a whirl eventually.

[Hurst2112]

i remember running FOF2 on my ibook. funny.

[Daimyo]

I run OOTP and FOF in VMWare at home because the elicense thing doesn't work under 64 bit XP. I had no problems installing them in the virtual machine, but I can not successfully uninstall the licenses. Its not a huge deal for me, but something to keep in mind. (problem might not exist in Virtual PC).
