Abe's Oddysee in a virtual machine (on mac)
I've been trying to get Abe's Oddysee running in a virtual machine (Virtual Box running Win XP) on a iMac (2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo). When I start Abe's Oddysee it resizes the virtual machine window, shows the copyright notice. It then goes black and I get very, very broken sound, CPU usage goes through the roof - strangely the icon sitting in the dock shows the screen properly, but not the main window. Every other Window's application I've ever tried has run OK.
Has anyone got Oddysee running in a virtual machine on a Mac, if so what did you have to do?
While I'm here I may as well gripe - I emailed this question to Steam support and they told me that they don't do support for this game, its third party. Does anyone know if/where the third party support for this game is - is this forum it?
