NFSIISE on a Mac

[nicolai-franz]

Thank you for this awesome project. I loved playing NFSIISE on my old computer as a child and am desperate to play it on my Mac now. Is it possible to run this on a Mac? I am on Ventura 13.4 (MacBook Pro, 2017) and tried to compile the game.

When I run the „compile“ script in the Terminal it says the following:

Thanks for your support.

Last time I compiled it many years ago. I don't know how x86-32 app can be compiled and launched nowadays there. Is you SDL2 library up-to-date?

[nicolai-franz]

Thanks for your response. Yes, it is up-to-date but I'm afraid there is no support for compiling x86-32 apps anymore. I just tried running it in a VM on Windows and it works fine!

Is it possible to build and run 32-bit ARMv7 apps on Apple Silicon?

I guess - not. Well, Apple likes to make life difficult for users 🤣. Maybe new WOW64 mode on Wine 9 makes it possible to run the Windows executable somehow? Or yes, use VM 🙂. Porting this project to 64-bit is too much work and hard, so for today - nope.
