Hey there,

The question's basically in the thread title. I have X3 for the PC, but I've got a MBP now and no PC.

Does anyone have X3 for the Mac and happy with it? Could you tell me what computer you run it on and how the performance is?

I would especially like to know if anyone has it running on the same spec as me.

Cheers.

Chris
 
I have it running on a 2.33 iMac, 3GB RAM, x1600 128MB.

I have the settings toned down but it runs quite smooth for me. I wouldn't expect much trouble on a faster machine with a faster video card.
 
Cheers for that kaltsasa.

Do you run it in window or in full screen and what resolution?

I've been a big fan of the Egosoft X games since X-Beyond The Frontier, and I've got every sequel, hell, I was even on the development beta team for X2 - The Threat! Call me a big fan if you will, I just want to see it run on my MacBook Pro :D
 
Full screen, 1680x1040 (is that right? whatever my 20" imac native res is). The 128 Meg video is what limits me from jackin up the graphix a bit I think. I run C&C3 fine too.
