Mac support is on the to-do list, but the Mac version of 2142 is buggy at best. I have a copy of it here and will certainly see what I can do in the future.

You need the launcher as it downloads a bunch of updates and puts them all in the correct places. It *would* be possible to do this manually, but it would be incredibly difficult, take a long time and very easy to make an untrackable mistake. You could launch First strike as it is via the community-> Custom Games tab in 'nilla 2142, but you won't be able to get any online action without being updated.

Alternatively, now you've got the base mod, you can install the Singleplayer Addon located here and sample FS through that instead, while a mac version of the launcher is worked on.

Hey I just found this mod and I have to tell you it looks awesome. unfortunately you guys don't have a mac version yet for 1.4. i could use my older computer with windows but i would really like to see you guys supporting mac versions more. and i know there are others out there that are saying the same thing.

ive been able to move all the mod files into their respective folders using my older comp. but i found out trying to join games and in older posts that the fs launcher is required. is there any way to make that work on mac? or do i have to wait for you guys to support mac versions??
