It is a PC game for a reason. The task you ask is obviously nearly imposible.
Converting files isn't nearly enough, there are multiple reasons why it's impossible from just converting files. But there is one that is very obvious.
The game reads what it wants, or what it is told to.
If you were going to convert some of the game files to file types of a different system and OS the game could not read those data files.
The game is programed to read files with specific names and extentions, and if you change them than the game can't find what it is looking for.
That's the case for many games.
If he wants to play Renegade he needs to buy Windows(preferably XP), I hear Windows XP runs great on Macs but I am not sure of this 100% even though I did hear it I think on the Apple website.
Oh yep and breaking copyright laws is illigal lol, don't be a moron and ever do that, anywhere, anyone.
Oh and why did he get a Mac btw? I'm just curios of why people are getting them lately. I know Apple likes to suck people in with their lies. Like about Viruses, they claim that most viruses can't attack a Mac computer because it's "protection" the Mac user gets with his Mac, but we all know its a compatability thing. Apple is confusing its consumers and I bet that almost any reason for getting a Mac computer anybody could come up with, I can counter. That's also why I ask why he got it. Hope I get an answer.
If not.....................................
