  • You have to compile FSO on MacOS yourself right now since automated builds haven’t been a thing for a while. There’s work being done on this (PR #4168), but it’s not ready yet. The pieces are mostly in place otherwise. Extracting the required files might be a challenge since the currently supported version of the Knossos doesn’t support the current GoG package format (there’s a ground up rewrite going on which should fix that, but it’s in an Alpha state right now) and Mac Steam likely doesn’t let you install Windows games, but if you can overcome that hurdle then it should work. Performance isn’t great though because Apple have neglected OpenGL on MacOS for nearly 20 years.
