While most of you are having a great time playing NoLimits 2, I'm still stuck with playing NoLimits on my Mac. Is it possible that they will release a Mac version of NL2 sometime, and if so, when do you think it could happen? I don't think NL1 is a bad game at all, I just want to get with the times and ride a lot of your wonderful-looking creations. Unfortunately, I can't right now :(.

I'm a Mac user too but don't really care if they release a Mac version of NL2 because I know my Macbook can't handle it. :lol:

BTW: Some of you know English isn't my first language and I have a grammar question....
Between these two option, who is the most grammatically correct?

Thanks you very much mates.

Either is fine, as they both make sense. I, personally, would add the "I" in, because that's the way I talk.

You'll probably need a very late model in orden to run it properly... I hope that they'll do a decent port

From what I have been told, as with the original release of NL2, it will be ready when it is done. So, it is being worked on but there is no absolute date of release. Hey, at least it is being worked on :)

Yes but it took them around 7 years to do that so minus a few years

^ Yea, but the game is coded already, you just need to convert that code and make it Mac compatible.
I'd expect a Mac release something this year.

I have not that much of a knowledge about coding, but I think coding for PC or Mac is completely different. You simply just can't convert that code. It probably needs to be fully rebuild, which takes a whole lot of time. If Mac comes out, I'm expecting more like somewhere in 2016.

I imagine you're still doing the same actions and calculations therefore the most part of it would be changing the syntax accordingly. Plus you've already got all the models and graphics completed - so whilst I agree it needs to be fully rebuilt - they know how to make it work - just need to get it written out. Plus they've worked with converting to MAC before I think it should be sometime this year (dependent on how much time they get to devote to developing the sim)
