DOTT Windows version on Mac?

Post by chris_kalan »

I have a copy of Day of the Tentacle for the PC. But I only use a Mac now, so can I use the Windows version to run DOTT on my Mac (running OS X 10.4)?

Thanks for the help!

Btw, I tried using the executable, but it wouldn't let me select it.

Sure, should work alright

You just need the Mac version of ScummVM and the files listed on the datafiles page (you won't need the dos .exe file)

I tried exactly that. When I went into "Add Game", it doesn't let me select any of the files. I just downloaded ScummVM today, and am using an iso version of DOTT on my mac. Again, it is a windows version. I unpacked the ISO and i get all sorts of files like INDYDEMO folder and REBEL like I remember on my PC, and I can open all the folders from within "Add Game" in ScummVM but none of the files.

Help!!

Just select the -folder- that contains the data files, and click ok. You don't select the files directly.

I made a backup of all my CDs when my brother moved out for school and took the lot of them. So I just went to my backup hard drive with all my ISOs on them. Is this why the game isn't working?
