Bought from steam PC, and copied the folder over to my macbook, and tried using WINE to run it.... no luck...

Any thoughts as to why it's not working? Is it something to do with DRM?

If I bought another copy direct from the developer, do you think it would work?

Thanks in advance for any advice.
 
Try CrossOver Games. But be warned, the performance will be absolute crap using emulators.

I tried everything to get games running good on OS X, and I ended up using BootCamp.
 
thats not enough info to go on... "doesn't work" isn't descriptive enough to have a clue why it didn't work, or even how it didn't work...

And sure the old "Use Bootcamp" always applies.. which is basically the same thing as "go buy/use a PC" since its not really a "Mac" anymore while booted into Windows... just Apple branded hardware running Windows OS...so its just like any other normal "PC" ... so of course that can run Windows games the way they were designed to run.
