  • NetRunner for macOS / OSX?

    From alisha@21:1/220 to All on Sun Apr 11 06:37:21 2021
    Hi to all,

    I read in the NetRunner whatsnew.txt by BETA 9 RELEASED that there was adding
    a OSX Verison. I know this was long time ago, but still the question is there any NetRunner Version for a actual macOS aviable?

    Best regards

    I see an osx version in the prealpha folder. I don't have a mac so I have never tried it myself but check it out if you like and see. The filename is nrb22o64.zip and it is in the prealpha folder at mysticbbs.com.

    Do you or can you install SDL2? I think (but am unsure) your issue is there about.

    You can talk to g00r00 himself in the Mystic area on fido. It's possible an OSX user here may chime in with pointers for you also.

    Hello Alisha,
    i have the same Problem with Netrunner (Unable to initialize video).
    Have you already found a solution?

    Hi, i had a simular experince on Ubuntu LTS 20.04, however it turned out to
    be the SDL lib needed to be installed for it to work. not sure about the
    setup for MacOS, however i would look to that area to see if it is a DirectX
    / SDL lib that it needs...

    Thanks
