Hi Jake! I spent a great deal of the weekend to try and get Songs of Syx to run mac natively as well as trying to get it to run properly on CrossOver.
Mac-wise I tried everything I could think of, watched your instructional video on youtube, everything to no avail. On CrossOver, with some fiddling, it runs. With some caveats that is: the cursor behaves very slurry (in game not in the menus) which makes selecting stuff very hard, and the games quickly paces down to a slow drizzle. Using keys 1 to 4 to speed up the game doesn't work except the 4-key which then has to be kept pressed down to make a difference. Scrolling sometimes works fine, sometimes doesn't...
My current rig is simply too old to I suppose, I am considering buying a windows machine in the near future.
I think you have a great title in the making but for now I would like to accept your offer for a refund, if it still applies.
Thank you for your offer of a try-out and your trust!
Jørgen
