Command and Conquer demo on a MacBook, universal binary?

yetanotherdave · May 13, 2007, 12:08 PM

Does anyone here have a universal binary for the command and conquer generals demo. I have the demo and it's a PPC version. It ran pretty poorly on my mini, but now I have a macbook I want to give it another go to see if it's worth buying. I have tried using the UB patch but that's for the full retail version only. I've gone into the package contents and can't find a replacement .app.

If not does anyone here run c&c generals on their macbook with the UB patch? How does it run? Is it playable? fast,? Laggy?

I'm using the full version and it works well on my Macbook Pro.
My Deluxe Edition was installed when I had "Snow Leopard" it stopped working after I upgraded to "Lion" for obvious reasons. I did the below now I play with no issues at all.

Simply download this file from here http://www.macgamefiles.com/item/18132/
then install it.

Note: Make sure you have at least a non-working copy of Command & Conquer Generals installed.
